Remove "Missing Overpass" map error report category.
That vast majority (all but maybe 1 or 2, in all the time I have been editing) of reports for "Missing Overpass" have been for overpasses that exist on the map, but are invisible at highway speeds on the app. Because some users do not understand how speed-based zoom works, that assume these overpasses are missing, and report every one they drive under until someone responds to a UR explaining why they don't see them. This is causing a large amount of unnecessary UR's and subsequent follow-up. In the US anyway, it would seem we could do completely without this…

Waze map on cluster screen (behind steering wheel) on Android Automotive cars
Electric vehicles powered by Android Automotive from brands like Renault, Volvo or Polestar have the Waze app ready.
However, the application only works in the main infotainment screen and does not replicate the maps in the cluster screen like Google Maps does.
This is a big miss in order to use Waze instead of Google Maps, since it is very practical to see the map behind the steering wheel.
We hope in a near future you can have access to cluster screen and replicate the Waze maps there.

Commenting on police
Some cities use white pick up trucks no markings in the middle of the highway most people will think it’s a construction vehicle

Car category specific routes
It would be very nice if you can define/select the vehicle type/category before you start driving or even better when you create a new account to specify the vehicle type and based on this to have different routes to the destination, because if you are a TIR driver sometimes Waze provides a route that is destination only to normal cars.

create a app settings profile for multi user environment (90 devices that needs same setting)
To start using navigation in a large emergency (firetrucs) environment we would like to keep things easy. We are thinking about central management of a waze orginasation installation and setup centrally the waze settings instead of local on the device. In a future release we then perhaps can license it and remove adds or use it to centrall set type of default navigation, layout etc.

Change font size on search results
When you enter a search the first summary line is <- Your location (in large font) -> address (in small font) The small font is hard to read (especially for those of us who need glasses for reading but not driving). It makes much more sense to have the "Your location" in small font (or not there at all because it is always the same text) and the desired address in the largest font possible on the screen

Truck
Ok, so 6+ years ago it was in the too hard basket to make a truck route...
How about just collect data from people who want to add road closures to already set routes but so long as the vehicle type is set for truck/RV. Effectively it would be a clone overlay of map guides but over time with the community help it would create itself and within days to start with.
I would happily help through the teething issues within the first few months of individually adding closure roads to route if it meant that the route was more…8 votes -
New feature
The main objective is to allow Waze users to report vehicles around them by adding comments. Like many users, Waze has become a habit when we drive on the roads to get information about our route.
The proposed feature could help all these users.
For example, imagine you are on the highway and you notice that a vehicle ahead of you has a deflated left rear tire. The driver probably doesn't know this because if he was aware of it, he would probably take the necessary measures.
With this new feature, you could report the vehicle directly on the…1 vote -
Make it easier to report things
The number of menus you have to navigate through to report something as simple as a vehicle on the side of the road is too much. It is distracting and potentially dangerous, so please make it easier to report things, just one or two taps!

Emergency route
Hello! We want a development that makes it easier for ambulances, firefighters, and police officers to respond to an accident. The vehicle category should be selectable for vehicles with distinctive markings, so that they can approach the site by the shortest route. You can also enter streets where it is forbidden to drive in or except with a permit.

integrate into Android Auto?
Good day guys. Just a quick one. Please can you guys have a look to integrate this awesome app into Android Auto? This is new technology that many car makers are starting to use and they only make use off Google maps. This app displays your mobile navigation on the vehicle's multimedia head unit. Waze is my navigation off choice and it would be a big plus for me and many others. Thank you. Regards. Izak (Dok69)

As you may know, Waze is already supported on Android Auto. Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram -
Favorite Hazards
I think there should be a "favorites" or "frequently used" option when it comes to notifying others of a hazard. Users could store their own. I know my most frequently used one is "Hazard. On shoulder. Vehicle stopped." You have to click through so many things... but if there was a favorite option stored, you could do it in one click.

recycling Feature
Dear Waze, I am a sixth grader at Spring Creek Elementary in Dallas, Texas. My robotics team and I are working on our project for the First Lego League City Shaper season. The goal of the project this season is to somehow improve our city. We are acknowledging that the world is having a hard time recycling. Would you help our cause and consider adding a special feature on Waze or Google Maps that shows where recycling bins owned by stores and other buildings that have signed up to have their recycling bin available to the public. Recycling is important since…

Avoid paid routes
In one of previous versions of waze was option "avoid paid routes" which was replaced by an "avoid highway". We would Like to opportunity for return "avoid paid routes" option. Because, for example here in Slovakia, we have so-called "bypasses" - highways around large cities, which are part of highways but are not tolled.

Still there and Not there buttons should stay for longer.
The "Still there" and "Not there" buttons should saty a little bit longer. By the time you go near and and be able to see the buttons are gone, especially when there other vehicles in front of you and can't see in time.
