BUG: Apple route direction "stack" on phone not updating during drive
When using Apple Carplay, the latest version is NOT updating the text direction "stack" seen on the phone while driving. Previous versions would remove the turns after they've been completed. The only way to get the stack updated is to toggle to road reports then toggle back to the directions on the phone.

Create a "memory mode" for operation without internet accesses
Create a "memory mode" for operation without internet accesses.
The memory mode should store the information about where you drive up to XX minutes (to be configured by the user) and will be fed to internet when then network is available again.
This feature will help to log off-road and path in mountain where the cell phone coverage is bad.

Please add bus lanes operational hours for London sometimes as anytime or with poor design by local authorities to trap drivers
Dear Sirs,
Please add bus lanes operational hours for London, sometimes they are set as any time or with poor design by local authorities to trap drivers and be served with contravention.No pre-warning, no standard design with decent ergonomically signs to serve the day driving and night driving.Would be a great assistance to get warned before bus lane and flagged all along of the bus lane so drivers can drive adequately or pull out of bus lane if missed to change the lane.
Best wishes,

Your search - I drive for Uber & Lyft. I love & use waze all the time. However, I can't seem to turn off the voice while using waze. I would rather read the directions then be told multiple times on where to turn. How do I turn the voice off? - did not match any answers in Waze Help.

Ability to clear old reports
There needs to be a way to clear old/outdated reports. My drive home today was littered with reports from 5, 7, 9 days ago. They just clutter up the screeen and distract from important, relevant information

Driving with speed limitation, caravans for example.
Dear Waze Team,
First of all, thank you for an outstanding app that continues to improve travel experiences worldwide. I’d like to suggest a feature that would greatly benefit drivers who tow caravans or trailers – or who, for any reason, are legally required to drive at lower speeds than regular traffic.
Currently, Waze assumes standard vehicle behavior and speed limits. However, in many countries (such as across Europe), towing a trailer legally restricts drivers to lower speeds – often 80 km/h on highways, regardless of the posted limit. This discrepancy affects both estimated time of arrival (ETA)…

Route choice
Hello, would it be possible to add choices of route type, for example shortest or fastest. Cause now it's not clear how he tries to lead us and lately it seems it's not logical at all. For example, I was driving through Autobahn in night, where I can drive on 140km/h but waze taught it would be a great idea to change this route to a small forest road that has a 30 km/h speed limit with bumps on road.

Fake Police Reports
If you have less than a 50% accuracy with your police reports you should get banned.
Also, you should not be able to place multiple police within a couple of miles of each other.
The state police in NJ and IL are causing more traffic and accidents because they are putting in false reports and setting up a speed trap a mile down the road. People are varying the speeds and it is a nightmare to drive with.
If this is not fixed I will find another GPS alternative.

Allow other users to send address to my handheld client
Allow facebook friends, waze group members, etc. to send an address to my handheld client if I am online.
1) When an address is recieved by the client, ask the user to accept the route, reject the route or block all address pings.
2) If I don't have a route set, auto accept the aaddress after 10 seconds.
3) Add a new category to the Address Search dialog similar to My Favorites, Recent searches, Contacts, etc. List the received addresses for easy access.9 votes -

The reporting interface is dangerous while driving and needs improvement
I think that there are quite a few suggestions indicating that the report interface is dangerous while driving and therefore needs improvement. It is not acceptable to go through several levels of clicks to make a report as one drives. It might be useful to allow one to rearrange or perhaps prioritize the report icons so that common reports are 'one click'. Linking the icons with a voice activation phrase is also a good idea that appears to have quite a few votes spread through several suggestion postings.

Alert Not Disappearing
When an alert pops up it will not disappear like it used to. I need to be able to see the map and sometimes I don't have availability to say whether something is there or not. Please fix this error and make the alerts disappear again after a short period of time so they're not blocking half your screen for the remainder of the drive.

Reporting privileges and scoreboard
First, I want to tell you that I absolutelly love your app, it is my favorite app of all and I am truly a Waze ambassador (I have around 20 friends that are now using Waze due to me and over 10 friends that are using it havilly, due to my advice).
I received your message and I have a couple of questions:
- Why my reporting privileges were disabled? Who, when and how decides what is excessive reporting or not? Is there some guidelines?
- Why my scoreboard is now 0?
- How can I get back my reporting privs and my…

Time to start driving to work
I would like to receive a notification every morning of the time I need to start my drive to work (depending on the traffic conditions and my location, of course). I know I can set it manually every day or set an "event" in my calendar that Waze will sync with, but it seems so basic and simple that I feel this should be a part of the app. With setting like days of the week when you go to work, time when you need to be there, respect state holidays toggle, etc.

Separate toggles for Toll Bridges and Express Lanes
Please add an option to avoid Express Lanes while still using Toll Bridges.
The HOV lanes in my area are being converted to Express Lanes that charge excessive tolls (closing in on $10) to use them. I refuse to drive in them. However, it's necessary for me to cross toll bridges to get to work (avoiding them will add an hour to my commute). If I tell Waze to avoid tolls, I avoid the Express Lanes AND the Toll Bridges, which is terrible.
Separating the 'Toll' toggle into 'Toll Bridges' and 'Express Lanes' would be very helpful.18 votes -
Type a name- find an address
When searching for information on our friends it is automatic to type their name into the search engine (whether searching for a number or facebook, etc.)
What if I had a friends address saved in its contact info and when wanting to go to their house- all I had to do was type my friends name into the navigate option (instead of the address) and it would bring up the address saved under that contact. It's instinctive and simple.
Obviously each person's waze would have to be personalized so that the addresses don't become public for all waze users.

Speeding alert for drivers
Waze should make a sound to alert the driver when they are speeding.
Waze already shows you how fast you are currently driving, and it knows everything about the road you are on, so it should be simple to compare your speed to the listed speed of the road.
Waze has always been about saving time and money for Wazers, and about creating features to attract and keep people on their service. This allows Waze to on-sell quality map data to other businesses, such as Apple. Many other SatNav clients have speeding alerts to save the driver from…

Multiple waypoints
When travelling to a destination Anna need to be there by a certain time, it would be useful when planning your trip if you could identify the time you must leave and know the time you should arrive at each waypoint. I’d picking up friends from multiple locations, you could tell each one what time to be waiting is multiple waypoints are allowed. Currently, I have to work that out manually.

Allow entering destinations while driving.
Passengers should be able to use the app while the car is on the road, same for drivers trying to change destinations during a red light.
