  2. Fix the Waze app display to it's original display

    Currently the display is matching google maps display cluster. It is hard to see the entire map during navigation. The old speed limit bigger character size and circle size was replaced with a small box with 4x lower character size, almost impossible to read. Remove the display update and return it to the old display and functionality. Please!

  3. From WME chance to see previous Street View footage

    Currently, only the latest Street View shot can be seen from WME.
    It would be interesting to add a button that allows you to switch to previous Street View shots (a bit like you can do on Google Maps).
    In this case, it would be very useful to see how a street changes, or, for example, if a building is covered by a construction site, it would be possible to go back to previous shots to be able to see the house numbers covered by the construction site.

  4. Add Jeep Wrangler car icon

  5. Opción de elegir el mapa de día o mapa de noche dese Waze en Apple CarPlay

    Al igual que con Maps de Google, sería bueno que Waze permitiera elegir desde la app de Apple CarPlay el modo de visualización del mapa (día o noche) y que no tenga que ser obligación utilizar el celular.

  6. Allow the user to select their preferred default search

    Improve the Waze iPhone API. Currently only the features are available using he waze:// api:
    http://www.waze.com/dev/documentation/

    The new google maps app has much much more capability:
    https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios/urlscheme

    I would love to be able to create a one tap navigate using waze link to all of my contacts in my address book. I can't do this currently because only querys are possible, plus the querys can't default to a specific search, further you can't navigate to a long/lat. for address which aren't known to waze... These would be very helpful!

  7. Option to DISABLE auto-return to "Me on map"

    If the map is centered on a position far from my current location, the client returns to me on map after a few seconds. This is good only some of the time. If I'm PURPOSELY panning on the map, then the client SHOULD NOT return to me on map. This is just plain annoying, and requires me to pan back to the location that I was just examining.

  12. Have the ability to upload pictures of accidents to help victims of hit and runs.

    When a wazer witnesses an accident we should have an icon to upload a picture, location and time of the incident. If someone is a victim of a hit and run they will have an opportunity to find the person responsible. Plates can be blurred like google maps but accessible by law enforcement if an incident is reported.

  13. hands free confirmation

    Completely hands free navigation. Currently, if you tell Waze to navigate to a specific address, you are required to manually (using your hands) confirm navigation. Unlike Google Maps, which starts navigation immediately. Requiring to touch the screen is not safe, illegal in certain areas, takes your eyes off the road, and is counter intuitive to using voice navigation.

  15. Picture type of hazard with different icons on navigation map

    Change reported hazard icon on navigation map to actually picture the type of hazard instead of the general yellow exclamation triangle for everything.

    If I report animals on the side.of.the road, I would expect to see the animal head icon on the map. Not a yellow hazard icon. It's far more informative and stops drivers from having to click into the hazard, taking their hands off the wheel, to see what it actually is.

  16. PLEASE make my position on the map “centered” on my iPad screen in landscape mode!

    While using the app in landscape mode my position on the map is always on the bottom right of the screen and not in the bottom “center” of the screen. I really love this app and all of its features, but I just can’t learn to live with it this way! It’s driving me insane to the point that I don’t even want to use the app at all and have been searching for other nav apps. I really want to use Waze but I just can’t stand the position being off centered the way it is. I just can’t…

  17. Prioritize Full CarPlay Integration: HUD & Instrument Cluster Directions

    Hello Waze Team,

    This post is to strongly urge the prioritization of full integration with Apple CarPlay to enable turn-by-turn navigation on built-in Head-Up Displays (HUD) and digital instrument clusters.

    This remains one of the most critical safety and convenience features missing from Waze, and it's a primary reason why many drivers reluctantly switch to Apple Maps when using CarPlay.

    The Technical Framework Exists

    We understand that enabling this feature is entirely possible within Apple's provided framework. The process is initiated by implementing the mapTemplateShouldProvideNavigationMetadata(_:) delegate method. By returning true from this function, Waze can signal to CarPlay that it…

  18. Store Map Issues Until they can be reported.

    In Rural Areas of the US but not only US cell data coverage sometimes can be problematic and connection may go in and out. When the user attempts to report a map issue the report can be filled out but submission goes to an error message: "Something Went Wrong" and the report and the information is lost.

    This can create problems with issues reported in Rural Areas where there is definite evidence of use of Waze but very few reports even though there are missing roads or missing pieces of data for the existing roads.

    As a suggestion Waze should:

  19. Sound Navigation

    One of my favorite things about Maps is when I'm in route to my destination and I want to here what my next step in my direction is that I can tap the screen and here the lady tell me what to expect next whether I'm .2 miles away, 1 mile away or 5 miles away from my next turn. With Waze If I'm driving and want to hear what my next turn is I have to wait for the app to choose when to vocally acknowledge what I am to do next. I would like Waze to have the…

  20. Moving map position

    A suggestion for the moving map display: would be nice to have the position of your own icon weighted towards the edge of the map where you have been. This would show more of the route you are yet to travel.
