Multiple work, home, school, daycare, … destinations
Please add multiple primary destinations. Many people have more than one Home or Work destinations, or drive regularly to School or Daycare. Maybe make the list open ended and add special icons for these other choices.

For the Love of Waze: A Real Driver's Plea to Stop the Trolls
I'm writing to you as someone who truly loves what Waze is supposed to be: a community of drivers helping each other out. But that spirit is dying, and it's because you're letting a handful of trolls ruin it for everyone else.
We've all seen it: phantom police cars that vanish into thin air, imaginary traffic jams on empty roads, and the completely absurd "icy road" warnings during a summer heatwave. It’s gone from being a funny quirk to a serious problem. It’s not just annoying anymore; it’s making us lose trust in the app we once relied on.
We, the honest drivers, are tired. We need you to step in and give us the tools to fight back. Here are a few common-sense ideas:
A Simple "Trust Score" for Everyone.
This doesn't need to be complicated. If your reports are helpful and people confirm them, your hidden trust score goes up. If your reports are constantly flagged as false, your score plummets. It’s that simple.Real Consequences for Trolls.
A bad trust score needs to mean something. Put them in a "timeout corner" where they can't report for a day. If they keep doing it, give them a week off. And for the worst offenders who just want to watch the world burn? Kick them out for good.The Biggest Fix: You Must Be THERE to Confirm.
This is a huge one. Right now, a liar's friend can confirm a fake report from his couch miles away. That's insane. Please, make the "It's There" button dead unless a driver's GPS shows they are right on top of the report. No physical presence, no vote.Use a Little Common Sense in the App.
Your system has all the data. Use it!
Does a "standstill traffic" report make sense when your own data shows other Wazers flying by at the speed limit? Of course not. The system should automatically flag and remove it.
An "icy road" report when it's clearly summer? Come on. Block those reports automatically when they make no logical sense.
Please, listen to your community. We are the ones on the road every day trying to make this work. We want to help you clean up the app and bring back the Waze we all loved and trusted.Sincerely,
A Driver Who Still Hopes.I'm writing to you as someone who truly loves what Waze is supposed to be: a community of drivers helping each other out. But that spirit is dying, and it's because you're letting a handful of trolls ruin it for everyone else.

Crosswalk Alert (Visual + Optional Voice)
Marked pedestrian crosswalks are among the highest-risk points where vehicles and pedestrians interact, especially at night, during poor weather, or in areas with weak lighting.
Introducing a Crosswalk Alert — a small on-screen icon with an optional short voice cue such as “Pedestrian crossing ahead” — would provide drivers with earlier situational awareness without affecting routing. Activated only on verified crosswalks, this alert would function similarly to existing permanent notifications such as speed bump warnings, hazard alerts, camera notifications, and other fixed safety cues.
Such an alert would reduce reaction-time delays, improve driver readiness in limited-visibility areas, and help prevent common collision scenarios at pedestrian crossings. Overall, this represents a low-complexity yet high-impact enhancement that directly strengthens Waze’s hazard-prevention capabilities and improves safety for all road users.

Send an alert as soon as an accident occurs on the route so driver can consider another before Waze suggests one
Send an alert as soon as an accident occurs on the current route so driver can immediately consider another. It takes Waze a while to suggest a new one as it waits for traffic to build up while a driver will know that is likely to happen and can pick another route before it is too late.

Stop auto re-routing to save nominal time.
Perhaps the greatest problem with Waze is when the inconvenience of taking a nonstandard route is not proportional to the time savings the new route provides. All too often I’m taken on an insane route in comparison to the normal one just to save two minutes.
I would like to prevent Waze from automatically rerouting (or suggesting an alternative “best route”) unless the new route saves 10 minutes of the total “mainstream” route time.
Perhaps people could choose different thresholds for reroutes.
I hate it when all of a sudden I’m rerouted in traffic on the highway to take the next exit in half a mile and I struggle to get over in bumper-to-bumper traffic just to find out I’m getting off the highway and back on the highway to save 60 seconds.

switch car types in iOS
Hi, I’m using Waze both with my private car and with my motorcycle.
In Israel, the vehicle type actually affects the routing itself (motorcycles can legally use different lanes and routes), so switching quickly is very important.
Right now, every time I want to switch the vehicle type, I need to go deep into the Settings → Navigation menu, and it takes multiple taps.Is it possible to add a faster way to switch vehicle type?
For example:
• a quick toggle button on the main screen
• a Siri Shortcut / Shortcuts action
• or a URL scheme parameter that directly sets the vehicle type (car / motorcycle)This would save a lot of time for users who regularly switch between different vehicles.
Thank you

Better head-up-display directions at roundabout
The head-up-display shows directions through waze in my VW ID.7. At roundabouts it shows an arrow, instead of (part of) a roundabout with which exit to take.

Zoom
Whenever I click the find alternative routes button. It constantly zooms me out every single time. This is so annoying I have to constantly click the plus button. Every time that I want to check if there’s a different route thats quicker.

Add favorites to a route
When I go on long trips, I enjoy stopping at rest areas, but I have no clue where they are or when they'll appear. I've ended up at a sketchy gas station, only to discover a rest area just 2 miles ahead. I also like pulling over at specific restaurant chains, but again, I don't know their locations. It would be awesome to add favorites to a route so the app tracks the distance to the nearest Chick-fil-A or Buc-ee's, then resets after you pass it to show the next one. This feature would be a game-changer.

Individual Volume Settings
Please implement a dedicated sound/volume setting allowing for volume to be increased to as loud or as low as wanted. Some vehicles and devices are having issues selecting louder volume for Waze, especially when using other infotainment features like Bluetooth music or CarPlay.

Motorcycle Icon
It would be great if users could choose between the arrow icon and the motorcycle icon when using motorcycle mode. Personally, I prefer the arrow — it looks cleaner and easier to see on the map.
