Waze's own chat
I was picking up my little brother yesterday and in the meanwhile i noticed that if i didnt have to switch between whatsapp and waze in order to chat with people not interested in waze, it would be even cooler!
I mean. I may log in so i could contact "a friend" that i know is connected to waze for example, just to chat. The facebook friends list is awful, because .. what? 30% of your list uses waze? and when they wanna chat with you, they dont think of the waze-3.5-facebook chat a a good system, so i have…

Report markers should be marked when the user presses the report button, not the send button.
Whenever I drive on windy freeways, or freeways with frequent blind spots, I don't see reportable items (police, vehicles on shoulder, etc) until the moment I pass them. Given the typical delay of entering the data into Waze, the markers end up being 500 to 1000 plus feet away from the actual item being reported.

Android Auto Points Integration
Allow for the collection of points from driving and reports made while using Android Auto. My account shows -1 points even though I drive with Waze on my Android Auto head unit daily and make plenty of reports. I even get the weekly summary of my reports but never get any points from these reports.

Speed before sharp curves or in rough weather
Alert when a user drive to fast before curve in the road or a coming intersection.
Waze knows the speed of the car and "knows" that we are getting close to a sharp curve in the road , alert in that case would be very important . Especillay in a rough weather.5 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Notificatiosn need to be posted earlier in time to compensate for people who drive 70-80 mph on highway. That equates to almost a half mile
I will constantly get notifications after I have encountered them. Police, object on road, pothole, etc. Your system needs to make the adjustment for highway speed vehicles. At 80mph a half mile can go by in the 20 seconds it may take to post a notification. That is more than the length of time you offer the notifications...

Midpoint
It’s called midpoint. You put in your starting location and the other persons starting location. You then search for a place you wanna meet up, and it calculates where the middle ground is (you can also make it someone drives more than another if you want). Put in the time you wanna meet up, it tells you when to go. When you start the drive, you can alert the other person you are on the way, and the other person can respond w the same. You can see both cars on the overview, send a notification if you…

50cc or under 125cc motorbike route options

Navigation is too close. Need a farther out perspective. I like to look beyond just a few blocks.
I drive for Uber and need a broader perspective of the route.

Not suggestion Bug-waze uses calender that is removed. Waze starts a planned drive for location (blank) or location home if you are at home.
Bug report-
Waze is using calendars which have been removed.
Waze is doing a planned route even when no location has been input or when location is home and the phone is ar the location already.
First time i closed it. Second i set what calendars it was allowed to see. Third i tried setting video conferences at home location to stop it. It still comes up with planned drive.
Very frustrating and annoying when you are expecting a business call and or are in a meeting and it interrupts.

Leave time on Home Screen
Whenever you plan a drive, always display the time to leave for the next planned drive(s) on the landing screen of waze. This already exists but the frequency of it being displayed on the Home Screen of the app seems random. Please consider having the leave time at a glance on the home screen whenever a drive is planned or allowing the user to toggle the box for always on, recommended on, or off. Thanks!

More re-routing flexibility
I would love to specify how open i am to re-routing before a journey - i.e. being able to choose ‘reroute automatically - get me there ASAP’ or ‘don’t reroute without confirmation - prefer my route where possible.’
Why: I drive a specific one of two ways out of my city when taking a long journey because while the other road is technically faster if you drive at the speed limit it is also dangerous and has poor surface conditions. This means in reality it is slower and stressful. If I do not manage to cancel the re-routing in time,…

Navigation to area instead of address ניווט לאיזור במקום לכתובת ספציפית
Driving to an address to find nearby parking? Going to drop a passenger somewhere?
When navigating to a specific address (current option) you won't always get the shortest way. For example the house you want to get to is just across the street from you- wayz can take navigate you to a U turn or worse.
My suggestion- add on option "drive to area"- you put an address and radius (or make few radius options) and wayz will create the fastest way to that radius.

Option to avoid a specific bridge.
I want to be able to avoid specific bridges (Chesapeake Bay Bridge). It would be nice to be able to avoid a specific section of road, either permanently or per drive.

Choosing a route on the basis of difficulty driving or gas saving
The default route should not only be the fastest route, there should be an option if you want an easier drive that also saves on gas but is 5-10 minutes longer. Waze should provide the opportunity to choose that route in the settings options
