  1. Improve vertical UI on iPhone

    Please fix the vertical user interface on iPhone! It is a complete mess, with large blacked out areas unnecessarily blocking the useful map space, therefore limiting our map vision and app experience, also the shortcuts or pop-ups are difficult to reach/click. Moreover, it doesn’t show a green line when entering part of the road under avg speed radar control. It should be an easy fix, just look at the carplay version, or maybe take ideas from google or apple maps. I am literally switching to other map providers because I have a terrible experience of using waze in vertical mode.

  2. Feature Suggestion: Estimated Time for Each Step in Navigation

    Currently, Waze shows the distance for each turn or road segment in the “Next Turns” list. It would be very helpful if, along with the distance, the estimated time to cover each segment was also displayed. For example:

    600 m, Modarres Expy → 2 minutes

    2.1 km, Resalat Tunnel → 3 minutes

    This way, drivers can better understand how much time they will spend in each part of the trip and anticipate which segments might have more traffic or delays. It gives a clearer picture of the journey beyond just distances.

    I believe this addition would provide users with a…

  3. Disable Police Alert during government lockdowns

    During lockdown periods imposed by the government to control the spread of Covid-19, law enforcement agencies are hard at work manning road blocks to advise all road users to stay home.

    The option to SHARE the location of police presence/road blocks during this period makes things harder for the authorities to manage potential Covid-19 carriers as they will find alternative routes to bypass those blocks.

    I hope Waze can consider to temporarily disable police location reporting at least during lockdown periods of each respective country. We all need to do our part in curbing this virus.

    Thank you.

  4. Opção para evitar rotas mais longas com ganho mínimo de tempo

    Gosto muito do aplicativo e uso diariamente, mas gostaria de sugerir uma melhoria: que o Waze permita ao usuário configurar um limite mínimo de economia de tempo para sugerir rotas mais longas.

    Muitas vezes o app propõe rotas consideravelmente maiores em distância ou complexidade apenas para economizar 1 ou 2 minutos, o que nem sempre compensa em termos de consumo de combustível, desgaste do carro ou conforto.

    Uma solução simples seria oferecer uma configuração para priorizar rotas mais curtas, exceto quando a alternativa for significativamente mais rápida (por exemplo, 5 minutos ou mais).

    Isso daria mais controle ao usuário sobre…

  5. Hazzard confirmation UI

    While driving it's very hard to use the Yes/No buttons, while paying attention to the road and hazzard that was just announced. I would suggest a large control with swipe left/right, that is easy to use without looking at the phone screen for long, and without trying to be very precise with your fingers on the screen. You could still split it in two areas, so a click on the left or right still work as Yes/No, just to avoid annoying users that are accustomed with the current UI. As it is now, I only use those buttons when I'm…

  6. Enable drawing polygon areas Where Closures Cannot Be Applied

    Use-case:

    There is a bridge under construction where only one direction is open at a time, controlled by traffic lights. Currently, Waze often shows it as closed, even though cars are just waiting for the light to change.

    Proposal:

    Add a feature in WME to draw a polygon-shaped area where closures cannot be applied — useful for cases like temporary one-lane bridges with traffic lights, where Waze should display a queue instead of a closure.

  7. Reportar chats de mapa maliciosos

    Waze es genial, pero esta siendo utilizado por conductores de transporte ilegal, incluso delincuentes para navegar y esquivar controles de tránsito y a los retenes de policía.
    Es una pena que una app tan útil como waze sea aprovechada por los mal intencionados.

    Incluso se esta dañando la comunidad de wazers, en los chats de mapa pueden verse discusiones, agresiones, falsos reportes y demás diálogo que restan y dilatan los objetivos y los valores originales de waze.
    Espero tengan en cuenta lo que esta sucediendo.

    Please check your waze maps for the public entrance to Island Walk Subsivision in North Port FL. I have made this suggestion to google maps, but I use waze 99% of the time. Not sure who the Lyft Uber drivers use. But please note. There is only 1 public entrance to this development. That is the main entrance off US HWY 41. This is a 24/7 Gate Maintained Entrance. Today, my ride UBER took me to the private entrance and I did not have my device and he could not get inn. The Entrance that runs from Playmore Drive going…

  9. 2 suggestions

    Okay, I would like to suggest 2 ideas for future addition.
    (1). Make it easy to access SETTINGS. Currently it's very difficult to try to find where the settings button is. Maybe having the icon display on the main screen.

    (2). Currently it's also very difficult to set the navigation up for a trip for future use. On my Samsung S23 it's so difficult to access the 'save' preview to set the navigation up for a specific time. Please make this option easy to access.
    There you have it. If you make these 2 options easier to control you will…

  11. Allow setting a maximum number of toll gates in route planning

    Dear Waze Product Team,

    I have a suggestion that would greatly benefit users travelling in toll-gated cities like Dubai.

    Feature: Allow users to specify a maximum number of Salik toll gates they are okay with during a route search.

    For example: “Avoid more than 2 Salik gates”

    Waze would then show routes that meet this preference, while also displaying the number of Salik gates per route.

    This feature would help users:

    Control toll expenses and plan budgets.

    Avoid surprises from unexpected toll gates.

    Choose routes tailored to personal priorities (shortest time vs. fewer tolls).

    Such an addition would greatly enhance…

  14. brevet de inventie in domeniul monitorizarii auto - concept unic si inovator

       Buna ziua
     
       Numele meu este Cosmin Isfa, sint din Arad-Romania si va scriu deoarece as dori sa va prezint un concept brevetat si inregistrat la OSIM din toamna anului 2020, referitor la un sistem ingenios, unic si totodata foarte eficient de imbunatatire a sistemului de colectare a tuturor taxelor auto, precum si de monitorizare si control al autovehiculelor de orice gen aflate in trafic.

       Sistemul prezinta urmatoarele caracteristici si avantaje:

    • monitorizeaza si contorizeaza in timp real orice autovehicul aflat in trafic privind legalitatea si conformitatea tuturor autorizatilor de  circulatie precum: ITP-ul, ROvigneta,  RCA-ul, norma de poluare, masa maxima…

  15. Allow Restriction Conditions for Workspaces; & Allow Areas to have Local Permit/Pass Types (IE: Student Parking, Staff Parking)

    Certain Roadways are set as restricted due to having gates, or other access controlling systems in place. The Waze Engine ignores these roadways as far as I am aware, which can affect those who work in the area. I think it would be a cool feature to have the ability to allow Regional Restrictions, it would benefit large sites, such as Colleges, Gated Communities, and other high density areas with varying road restrictions.

    I have attached two images of Restriction Concepts I have made within the Restriction Editor.

    1. Enhanced Gas Station Listing: It would greatly benefit users if the app could accurately list nearby gas stations along the route. Often, the suggested stations are either behind or significantly off the intended path. Providing closer and more convenient options would improve the overall navigation experience.
    2. Diverse Route Options: While the app excels in offering optimal routes based on live data, having access to additional route options beyond the closest or best ones would be fantastic. Users would appreciate the ability to explore and select from a range of potential routes to suit their preferences.

  18. Permanent “End of Pavement” Alert

    In several regions, especially on state highways and rural roads, there is an abrupt transition in pavement—for example, the end of the asphalted section and the beginning of a dirt or basalt-stone road. These sudden surface changes can catch drivers by surprise, particularly during low-visibility hours, adverse weather conditions, or on higher-speed roads.

    Technical and Road Safety Justification:
    Changes in pavement type can pose significant risks to drivers, such as:
    Rear-end collisions, when the vehicle ahead suddenly slows upon noticing the change in pavement;
    Loss of control and roadway departures, due to loose gravel, irregularities, or reduced traction on dirt…

    2. Pour les changement de vitesse limite : Lors d'un changement de limite de vitesse, une message vocal indique l'action et la vitesse à atteindre et la distance du changement : "Ralentissez à 70 km/h dans 200 mètres" "Vous pouvez maintenant rouler à 110km/h" quand la vitesse autorisée augmente.

  20. Body mass index and cardiorespiratory fitness in MSers: Yes, it matters

    Sebastião E, Motl RW.

    Abstract

    OBJECTIVE:

    This study examined body fatness and its association with cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) accounting for disability status.

    MATERIALS AND METHODS:

    This study involved a secondary data analysis from a previous study of 62 pwMS. Body fatness was indirect measured as body mass index (BMI), and CRF was measured as peak oxygen consumption from an incremental exercise test with spirometry. Participants were allocated into 3 different groups based on established BMI categories (ie, normal, overweight, and obese), and data were analyzed using SPSS.

    RESULTS:

    The average BMI was 27.0 (6.7)…
