In motorcycle mode make all choice options timed so they go away without need to press an option (not possible while riding, or in gloves)
New route available options make Waze useless on a motorcycle. They cover the speedo and cannot be selected without stopping, removing glove and pressing a choice. I had to stop three times today. I have a bluetooth controller on the bike but that seems to get disabled when these announcements appear so stopping is the only option. I am using the motorcycle mode with motorcycle selected as my vehicle.

Move the road name labels so they don't cover up the junction
Very often the road labels cover up the junction, it's very difficult to see which exit of a roundabout is needed because the label covers the whole centre area,

Re-introduce a feature. Back button (on android) re-centers map.
This is actually not new, but a feature I (and many people I've talked to) want back.
In the past, when you would roam around the map to check whats to come on your route, you could just press the default back button on android and it would re-center the map.
After recent updates, it doesn't do that anymore, and instead shows the dialog for shutting down. So not only we have to cancel that, but then find the button on screen to click to re-center.
Please, add it back.3 votes -
Use Heneral Luna's voice for philippine navigation
Heneral Luna a character played by John Arcilla is one of the most watched films in history with 31M views in youtube. This will be a good grounding for the app and its marketplace should it be launched in the country :)

Speedo meter, cam alerts,
The speedometer on the map plus the road speed limit is below on the phone. Speed cam alerts are show in the below part of the screen. While riding a motorcycle (superbike) i have to literally look down to see the speed taking my eyes off the road. This is dangerous. Please place speedo meter with speed limit indication on the top of screen or give an option like a layout to choose from. The font also needs to be big in size as at high speed it becomes tough to see limits of road and the actual speed.
Also the speed limiter should blink not the actual speed while crossing speed limits. Here in Dubai i can cross the limit by 20kmph so i should be able to speedometer on constant basis.The speedometer on the map plus the road speed limit is below on the phone.

Speedometer size in Landscape mode
Please enlarge the speedometer in LANDSCAPE MODE [portrait is fine] and preferably make it movable. Barring 'movable' just enlarge it. Got a bit older you see [not 20 any more] - it would be very useful if I can see it properly - double the size would be good [or custom] :) TY (y)

Stop cops from reporting “no longer there”
If a vehicle hasn’t moved for a set time (ie a cop doing a speed trap) don’t let them report “no longer there” or remove the icon. If other wazers are moving on the road, but the one cancelling reports is not, suspend the account. Especially if they are cancelling multiple reports from different wazers in the same area.

Can the name of the street you are on be displayed at the bottom of the map all the time, not just when you have a trip/destination set

Alert of low sun
Especially is early spring and the after year, low sun is frequent, blinding you and preventing you from having a clear view of the road or being able to properly assess what is happening in front of you on the road. Therefore in my idea to add a Los Sun alert to the alerts so that you are prepared for the low sun

HUD Distance Rounding
For cars with HUD/secondary display on cluster, the distance to next turn is always rounded. (15.8 miles show up as 16 miles, 12.4 miles show up as 12 miles)
This make sense when the distance is further away (over 10 miles), but when we are closer (< 10 miles), the rounding could be confusing. For example, 1.4, 1.3, 1.2, 1.1, 1, 0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5 mile all shows up as 1 mile, and 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1 mile show up as 0 mile (until unit switch to feet).
The rounding should be disabled (or switch to round to tenth of a mile) when the distance is less than 10 miles to next turn.For cars with HUD/secondary display on cluster, the distance to next turn is always rounded. (15.8 miles show up as 16 miles, 12.4 miles show up as 12 miles)

Customizable Time Difference for Toll Roads vs. Free Roads
Have you ever wondered if the extra cost of a toll road is really worth it in terms of time saved? We propose a new feature that allows users to set a customizable time difference between toll roads and free roads, so Waze will automatically navigate you through a toll road only if it meets your personal criteria.
Here’s how it works: You set the time difference—let's say 10 minutes. If the toll road saves you more than 10 minutes compared to the free route, Waze will direct you through the toll road. If not, it sticks to the free route. This gives users more control over their navigation and spending, ensuring they only pay when it’s truly beneficial.

מתן אפשרות עזרה לרכבים תקועים
שלום אני ישעיהו מזוז, ויש לי רעיון שיכול לעזור להרבה רכבים תקועים!
במהלך היום בנסיעה אנו נתקלים במספר רב של ההתרעה המוכרת
''זהירות רכב נעצר בשוליי הכביש בהמשך הדרך''
לרוב מדובר ברכבים שנתקעו עם בעיה כזו או אחרת
וכמובן שיש הרבה נהגים בדרך שבהחלט היו רוצים לעזור אילו היו יודעים מראש על הבעיה ,ואם יש להם אפשרות, וכלים, וכמובן רצון לעזור לאותו הרכב התקוע
אי לכך רציתי להציע, שכשנהג נתקע בצד הדרך בעת שהוא שולח עדכון בוויז על כך,יוכל להוסיף [וכמובן גם על עדכון קיים] מתוך קטגוריה מגוונת שהאפליקציה תתן לו, עדכון לגבי סיבת העצירה כגון : פנצ'ר/הנעה/התנעה/שמן/מים/וכו
ובכך, כאשר האפליקציה תודיע לנהגים המתקרבים על הימצאות הרכב התקוע תוסיף עוד מילה אחת לגבי סיבת העצירה
[מי שלא ירצה בכך יוכל לשנות זאת בהגדרות]
וכך יוכלו נהגים רבים לארגן במחשבתם אם לעצור לעזור לו במידה והם רוצים בכך,
!!ובכך תעשו טוב לאנושות כולה הרבה פעמים ביוםשלום אני ישעיהו מזוז, ויש לי רעיון שיכול לעזור להרבה רכבים תקועים!

Hands free reporting
I love Waze! However, I find that I am likely part of the majority that simply doesn't report events as often as I should. The main problem I have is with taking the time to mess with my phone often when I need to be MOST focused on the road. Examples:
Suddenly in a construction zone.... Yea probably shouldn't risk it.
Cop chilling in a well hidden spot... Yea I need to focus on not getting a ticket rather than playing with my phone infront of them.
Obstacle on road.... Literally focus on swerving rather than messing with the touchscreen.
These all boil down to one issue in particular. Utilizing the PHONE to input the report. What if... we utilized AI.... and did text to speech.... to ya know... make reports. You already have integrations with Google. Why not partner with them to make app specific reports. Such as.
Hey google, Report cop on waze.
hey google, report hazard on waze.
Hey google, report heavy traffic on waze.
I know this would turn me specifically from a passive user to a much more active user.
