Drive left/right reminder
As part of the user profile, the user should be asked 1) which country they reside in, and 2) if they would like reminders to keep left (or right) when actually driving in a country that drives opposite that to which they are accustomed, i.e. "Turn right at Turnhere Road, remembering to keep left." Use of the feature would be optional.

Unable to fill search field from result
When typing an address for a search it shows autocomplete results which are perfect but if you want to extend one of the search results in the search field then not possible. So there must be an option with each item in searched list to get the result and fill in the search box so later can add more in it. At the moment it’s downright annoying.

Rideshare Pickup and Dropoff on Right Side of Road
I use Waze for rideshare, and would be great to have an option in taxi mode to be routed where I drop off or pick up a passenger on the right side of the road. This would be a good option as long as it doesn’t take me too far out of the way. I guess in some countries the left side may be preferred.

Add Building Outlines with Addresses on them
I use Waze for rideshare, and it would be great to be able to zoom into the map and see the outline of buildings and the address on them. Google maps has this.

Upcoming Direction Sound only alert
I don't love the spoken directions and alerts. I really just need something to tell me "check the screen". Rather than a full read out, or even a simplified readout of the directions, could there not just be a "ding" that lets me know an upcoming direction so I know to look at the screen.
I keep the speaking directions off because I find them annoying. But I frequently miss turns, off-ramps, etc when Waze wants me to take a different route than I normally do on a frequent drive because of traffic or hazards, etc.

Stop using last direction of travel for assumed start direction of new trip
Waze should not make assumptions like the direction my vehicle is facing for a new trip based on the direction it was facing when the last trip completed. 1) I have a driveway so I rarely park on the street in the direction I was last traveling while guided by Waze. 2) When I am going home I do not have my actual address stored in Waze, rather one 5-6 homes before my address so I continue past the address which Waze thinks is my home destination. 3) Another reason Waze should not assume my direction of last travel is that I do not ALWAYS use Waze, therefore Waze has no way to know in what direction I last traveled.
At the least Waze should make this a user selectable option.Waze should not make assumptions like the direction my vehicle is facing for a new trip based on the direction it was facing when the last trip completed. 1) I have a driveway so I rarely park on the street in the direction I was last traveling while guided by Waze. 2) When I am going home I do not have my actual address stored in Waze, rather one 5-6 homes before my address so I continue past the address which Waze thinks is my home destination. 3) Another reason Waze should not assume my direction of last travel is…

Max speed trip estimate
I drive an road e-bike, which has a max speed of 32kmh due to legal restrictions in Ontario. It would be great if we could specify a max vehicle speed and Waze could take that into account when estimating how long it will take to arrive at a destination.

Vehicle icons in settings
In settings, when choosing a vehicle icon, it would be nice if the icon was visible to preview without having to leave settings and returning to the map to view the vehicle. It's a lot of back and forth when trying to pick one, especially when new ones are added.

More options on Android auto
Hi there,
Why waze has limited options when using throw Android auto?
When you press the location icon it doesn't give all the options as when I am using it directly from the phone(options such as road ahead close) Why is that?
All new cars have got android auto, I think I should be able to access all options of waze throw Android auto, but that is not the case.
Thanks

The "Later" button
The "Later" button would be very useful in saved addresses, not just new ones

After updating to 4.94.0.3 Waze is very difficult to navigate in Android Auto with a rotary knob (non-touch screen).
When using a car without a touch screen, it is extremely difficult to navigate the new interface. For example, the Cursor used to default to the "Pin" icon while in navigation. This was great because it allows you to quickly report Hazards and Police.
Now after the update, it defaults to the "Magnifying Glass" icon. This means you have to scroll past SEVEN, yes... 7, other icons to get the to "Pin" to report a hazard. I tried moving the cursor to the "Pin" Icon and leaving it there, but after a few seconds it defaults back to the Search Icon. The last thing I'm trying to do while already navigating someplace is use the search Icon. I've all but stopped trying to report anything on the road as a hazard because of this change. This is exacerbated by the fact that voice commands no longer seem to work.
If future developers out there want a "what not to do" of UI updates... this is textbook.
It's almost as if Waze is sabotaging the app to force people back to Google Maps.

Joystick map navigation is difficult to use on CoolWalk update
After the Coolwalk update, you introduced a new feature so we can navigate on the map using car controls. When using this feature with the car joystick (Mazda), isn't smooth, it's too laggy and difficult to use, making this awesome feature useless. Please see how Google Maps handles this. That works perfectly.

Police info
All the places that the police icon or other hazard icons show, one should be able to see the details of that icon. Currently I can only see the minutes reported and distance of an officer when in the route mode. Overview mode should show the same level of details when you tap on the icon. It is ridiculous to have different displays / abilities to see different level of details when it should all be the same. If I see the icon in overview, on the map, when in a route or not on an active route but just looking at the map...clicking on the icon should give the same details. Sometimes it gives you no info other than a general idea of how far away and no info on how many people reported and how long ago.

Oxygen Restricted Roads
A lot of drivers are now helping seniors and those with respiratory problems/disabilities that have oxygen tanks which are prohibited in tunnels that run from NJ/NY and possibly in other areas. There’s also some restrictions on bridges. Can you please come up with a Navigation button to “Avoid Oxygen Tank Restricted Roads”?
