2. Add public transportation in app for users to choose as their vehicle type to match available restriction settings in WME.

   In WME we have: Private, Electric, Motorcycle, Public transportation, Taxi.
   In the app we have: Private, Taxi, Motorcycle (+ EV in a different menu)

   Main use case would be for unscheduled buses, such as tour buses, school buses, private hire buses, etc. that are not really “public transport”, but are allowed to use bus-only roads and turns.
   Local authorities can define bus+taxi or just bus restrictions for turns and streets. We can map this correctly in WME, but then users don’t have an option that would route them through public transport only areas.

3. Merge charging and gas stations and add Electricity to the Preferred fuel type

   Charging stations would be better integrated with gas stations - by selecting Preferred fuel type - electricity, the type of stations could be defined. (The list of Preferred Gas Station brands could be filtered to those stations that provide a given type of fuel by selecting Preferred fuel type.) Then charging stations would be integrated into the route as well as gas stations now. The current situation is unsatisfactory for electric cars. In the case of integration, it will be better to select and navigate to a charging station, as is the case now with a gas station. Why separate and duplicate these two groups when they could be combined and the fuel selection would clearly define which one the motorist wishes to see? The question is whether hybrid cars would need to select 2 types of fuel in order to be able to choose refueling or charging...

5. Setting fuel types at gas stations

   It is essential to be able to set fuel types at gas stations. So, for example, at a number of gas stations there are 3 types of fuel, at others 4. At gas gas stations there is only 1 type of fuel and showing others means confusing users when entering prices.
   The indication of charging types for electric vehicles is wonderfully done. It would be great to implement this idea for regular gas stations.

6. EV features aren't currently supported in mycountry

   EV features aren't currently supported in my country Costa Rica. We don't have license plate restrictions for electric vehicles and the days that plate matches the gasoline and diesel cars restritions I get not optimal routes.

   Please enable EV features, including no license plate restrictions.

7. Function maximal speed of the road

   Good day, dear waze company. I use three types of vehicles and it needs three different routes to one destination. The first vehicle is a Subaru. Waze is fine. The second is electric ionic. Here, I would like to use shorter routes without hills, and the third vehicle is a Fiat Ducato 1991 caravan. Here, I would need to enter my maximum speed into the application, for example 90 km/h, and choose a suitable route based on it. I would also appreciate this function in an electric car. Here I would choose, for example, 110 km/h and the route would be different. Because if I look for a route with a caravan where the highway is part of it, I can't go 130 because it's more than the design speed of the vehicle. That's why I prefer expressways or district roads and save money on highways and go in the same time. I miss a function: the possibility to enter the maximum speed of the vehicle or the planned route. Such an option leads to fuel savings and a reduction in CO2 production. I will be grateful for the new function :)

8. Eco Bar - Add a bar graph showing how ETA changes if you slow down to help save gas/electricity

   I'd like to see how much longer my trip will take if I slow down by a few miles per hour. Most cars will proportionally consume more fuel the faster they go. Knowing how my ETA will be affected will help slow down a few mph which has many benefits beyond fuel savings. (The request to add a "how will my ETA be affected if I speed up" is a different request and probably will be harder to get past the lawyers... I'd be happy with a little bar graph on the side of the map that shows minutes added with reduced MPH...)

9. Add Kia EV6 vehicle

   Electric Vehicles are becoming more prominent in the United States.
   I'm requesting a (white) Kia EV6 as a selectable Vehicle to display in 3D on the map as a personal vehicle.

   I wanted to also point out that as of today, 01/08/25, there are literally no white crossovers/utilty vehicles to even choose from - at all.

   Add the EV6 and my soul is yours.

11. Range Inclusion

    I’d like to suggest a feature that could greatly benefit electric vehicle (EV) drivers like myself. It would be extremely helpful if Waze could integrate EV range information into the app to provide more accurate recommendations for nearby charging stations. Additionally, ensuring that the data on available chargers is up-to-date and reliable is crucial, especially with different charging speeds and station availability. This improvement would make Waze an even more valuable tool for EV drivers, enhancing our ability to plan routes effectively and avoid range anxiety.

    Thank you for considering this!

12. Let us find two things next to each other along the route

    Give a possibility to search for two things along the route that are close to each other (300m).

    With the increasing number of electric cars and charging options, many people will want to search for something like „a Burger King NEXT to a Fast Charger“ while driving.

    The result should be a clean list of both hits with the usual „minutes added to the route“ but also the distance to each other.

13. Add the garage with vehicles and settings

    I would suggest you introduce the concept of garage. The possibility of adding your own cars to the garage, being able to describe the types of cars, and relate the navigation configurations to the vehicles. In this way, by choosing the vehicle used at that moment with a single button, all the navigation configurations will be automatically set.
    For example, I use an electric scooter and with the scooter, I don't want to drive on the motorways, I want to avoid toll roads and I have the permits for restricted areas of the city.
    However, when I use my old car, I want to use the motorways, I don't want to avoid toll roads and I don't have permission to use restricted areas in the city center.
    I wish I could change all these driving settings just by choosing the vehicle I'm driving, not having to reconfigure everything every time.

15. Custom vehicle types

    There should be an option to add custom vehicle types along with the three existing. I am often switching between the company van, my diesel 4x4 and electric daily runabout, and my navigation requirements and wishes for these are different as they all have different use cases. Would be nice to add more profiles so I can easily swap between EV specific and diesel for instance, and also have one where I can leave the option for gravel roads on, or even set gravel roads as preferred if possible, this also kinda applies to ADV motorcycles.

16. A few user stories for supporting BEV / electromobility in Waze

    Dear Wazers,

    I have been using your product far before "the Google times." When I first downloaded Waze, the road to my home was not "Wazed-paved" yet, so I had to pave it myself :). Anyway, that's not what I'm writing you about. I want to extend a request to you through a few user stories, which would significantly enhance my electromobility driving experience. I hope you're already thinking in that direction, and we'll see enhancements for BEV (battery-electric vehicles) soon.

    There're plenty of elecromobile-specific apps, but Waze is my current choice for a guidance app. As such, I am suffering because I need to switch back/forth from Waze to another app when it comes time to plan a long drive.

    If you would like to enhance our experience with Waze easily, you could partner with the two most powerful solutions, PlugShare and abetterrouteplanner.com (of course, if they agree). But I think you're big enough to believe in enhancing your app by yourself and giving us the functionality to fulfill our e-mobility needs.

    I took the liberty to draft a few user stories, which I can find very useful. Although all of them will give excellent functionality to Waze, the first one is the most important, which would position Waze as the first massively used navigation software which incorporates proper functionality for e-mobility. I hope you have plans to win this market even better.

    In any case, here're the stories. Each story has a justification/overview to it.

    As a user, I need to see charging stations on the map so that I can plan my travel accordingly

    This one is the "mother of all e-mobility" stories. Of course, it's so big that it's easily epic, but shortly said, we, the users, need a way to see the charging stations on the map.

    The distinguished properties of each charger on the map should be like those below:

      name: "Awesome charger" # The name of the charging station, user free-form
      owner: "EVPoint" # the charging station owner
      description: "Please use our apps, available at our home page https://evpoint.bg/, to activate the charger."
      max-power: 150 # the maximum power, in kW, of the whole station. Sometimes people use only this parameter to judge the power delivery speed, but often it's necessary to have granulation per socket.
      connectors: # Lists all charging connectors available at the station. This is a good reference for it: https://evcharging.enelx.com/resources/blog/552-ev-charging-connector-types
        - CCS2: # CCS2 charging connectors at the station
            - count: 2 # two CCS2 charging connectors
            - max-power: 75 # 75 kW max power each
        - CHADEMO: # Chademo connectors at the station
            - count: 1 # one Chademo connector
            - max-power: 50 # 50 kW max power 
    

    The description might seem optional, but without it we will need a place to know the URL from which we will access the charging app. Usually, most of the manufacturers have their specific apps. So any particular data on how to access the station services is put in this field.

    A very important part of this functionality is the filters. When a BEV travels a long distance, we usually use the fact DC-chargers. These give us a charge for approx 100-150 miles (150-250 km) in 10-20 minutes. Most of these chargers are located near (or directly as part of) existing gas stations.

    As part of an MVP, I would accept the first four fields, with the ability to filter by max-power. However, an "MVP-2" stage with the connectors property, and the ability to filter by their type, will be a must since not all cars support all connectors. For example, a TESLA might have its own connector only, and my car has only CCS2 for DC charging.

    As a user, I would like to enter my BEV range so that Waze helps me plan longer rides

    This is a must if I could use Waze as my assistant for BEV travels. My vehicle has a range (let's simplify this for now - just a number of km or miles in my account).

    Based on this range, Waze could show me in a friendly way, directly over my travel map, where my coverage ends. Then I can zoom in, choose a suitable charging station, and plan my ride accordingly (see below). For this, Waze has to have support for more than one Stops (I think right now you allow only one stop, but even this would do, for an MVP, it's more than OK).

    As a user, I need better support for community-driven charging station data and status

    The community feedback is critical since the map is not yet saturated with chargers. Thus, having the ability to rate/comment on each charging station is a functionality that I use very often. When I plan my trip, I usually avoid chargers, where the community says "broken." And when a charger comes back online, the community is very fast to indicate this.

    The best way to leave feedback is to indicate if any user had a successful charging session. A simple Yes/No would do. The system can then calculate an overall rating per charger and display it in a Rating section. The written feedback from each user can also be displayed there (if there's such a given with the "Charge-successful/unsuccessful" rate).

    Dear Wazers,

    I have been using your product far before "the Google times." When I first downloaded Waze, the road to my home was not "Wazed-paved" yet, so I had to pave it myself :). Anyway, that's not what I'm writing you about. I want to extend a request to you through a few user stories, which would significantly enhance my electromobility driving experience.

17. Suggestion for improvements to the charging station search on Waze

    Dear Sir/Madam,
    With the proliferation of electric vehicles, it is crucial to optimize the charging station search on Waze to make it a recommended reference. Below, I propose specific improvements to enhance this feature.

    1. AA CarPlay / Displaying power, not speed status
       Currently, on Android Auto, I notice that Waze displays vague indications ("Fast", "Medium", "Very Fast") rather than the power in kW. I would like the exact power to be indicated to better inform users.

    2. App / Displaying availability on the map
       This feature, which was previously available, has disappeared. I find that displaying the number of free connectors directly on the map when searching for a station via the "Charging Station" tab is visually very useful, and I would like to see it reintroduced.

    3. App / Separate display for 2 different power levels for the same connector

    For example, a station with 8 CCS at 300 kW and 2 CCS at 150 kW is displayed as 10 CCS at 300 kW, which is misleading. I suggest displaying each power level separately with the corresponding number of connectors for greater clarity.

    1. App / Adding a filter
       I suggest adding the following filters to facilitate searching:
       A "restricted" filter to sort stations by their status (public, restricted, private).
       A power filter with three ranges: < 22 kW, 23-99 kW, > 100 kW, or all.
       A filter for stations accepting credit cards, based on the option already checked in the editor.

    2. CarPlay, AA / display the same level of information
       I notice marked differences between Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. On CarPlay, only basic information like the address is displayed, while Android Auto includes location, real-time availability, and services. Similarly, on the mobile app, Android offers filters ("open," "fast charging") that are absent on iOS. I would like to see harmonization for a consistent experience.

    3. App / Sort the proposed networks alphabetically
       In France, the list of operators lacks logic. I propose alphabetical sorting to simplify navigation and avoid confusing users.

    4. AndroidAuto CarPlay / Display the "About Us" section
       Some stations include relevant information in the "About Us" section, but it is not visible on Android Auto or CarPlay. I would like this section to be accessible to enrich the available information.

    I am also sending you a presentation with easy-to-understand images for the first five improvement suggestions. https://www.canva.com/design/DAGkf5jBlCM/iFvM8n0-ZKTkmBRVQ4slkQ/view?utm_content=DAGkf5jBlCM&utm_campaign=share_your_design&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=shareyourdesignpanel

    These suggestions aim to make Waze more intuitive and reliable for electric vehicle drivers. I remain available to discuss these proposals in more detail.

    Sincerely,
    Rohann

18. Urgent Proposal: Integrate E-Bike and Scooter Riders into the Waze Map for Driver and Rider Safety

    The Immediate Safety Need
    I am urgently requesting that you integrate electric bicycle and scooter riders into the Waze traffic map. I believe the primary need is not just navigation for the riders themselves, but to increase the visibility of these vehicles in the eyes of the car drivers who use the application.
    I see that Light Electric Vehicles (LEVs) – e-scooters and e-bikes – have become an integral part of urban and intercity traffic. They travel on the edge of roads, in bus lanes, and on bike paths close to driving lanes, and they pose a significant risk for accidents, mainly because drivers are often completely unaware of their immediate presence.
    The Proposed Solution: Add a "Rider Mode" for Reporting
    I propose developing a new "Rider Mode" under 'Vehicle Type,' which would serve two main purposes:
    1. Visibility and Alerts for Drivers (The Safety Aspect):
    Active Presence Marking: A rider who selects this mode would be marked as an "active Waze user" on the map, similar to a car or motorcycle, but with a unique icon (e.g., a helmet or a scooter).
    Automatic Safety Alerts: Waze could warn car drivers who are approaching a rider or a group of riders from behind. The alert could be audible ("Caution: Cyclist ahead") or visual on the screen.
    Hazardous Areas: Warnings could be issued to drivers in advance of areas prone to riding (e.g., a road section without a dedicated bike lane, or a popular riding zone).
    2. Specific Reporting for Riders (The Community Aspect):
    Reporting Road Hazards: Giving riders the option to report specific dangers that threaten them and low-profile vehicles (such as potholes, obstacles in the bike lane, or a blocking car). These reports would also benefit other drivers.
    Mutual Safety Cooperation: Riders could report the presence of police/inspectors focusing on LEVs, thereby creating a reciprocal safety community (as Waze currently does for cars).
    The Unique Advantage of Waze
    Other navigation apps offer cycling routes, but Waze is the only application used by millions of drivers on the roads worldwide. I believe the solution to the LEV safety problem lies in Waze's unique ability to connect heavy vehicle users (cars) with light vehicle users (e-bikes/scooters) on the same platform.
    I am confident that adding this feature will not only improve rider safety but will also help drivers be more focused, reduce the element of surprise, and ultimately save lives and reduce the number of traffic accidents.
    I urge the Waze development team to prioritize the immediate addition of this critical safety feature.

19. Hello I was in Austria and in a section of 100km/h with the IG-L supplement, I didn't know if it applied to me and when I was driving 130km

    Hello

    I was in Austria and in a section of 100km/h with the IG-L supplement, I didn't know if it applied to me and when I was driving 130km/h waze didn't warn me that if my car runs on gasoline, it applies to me. It would be good, even if this tab is not active down in one strip, to explain to everyone what it means if it happens to light up in this section. In the settings, there is the type of vehicle and the preferred gasoline, and from that this information could be clear that it concerns me. So please, in the given area, 100 would be displayed below in a red circle and IG-L, if it lights up, you have to go 100 km/h. This would not be shown for electric cars because it does not apply to them.

    And one more observation.
    In one section down the hill, about 7 km long, there was a 100 km/h sign on the freeway and a measurement of about the distance between vehicles, 2 seconds of driving between vehicles. On the Waze screen, I saw a vertical green bar on the left, but it would be good to permanently warn at the bottom of the measurement of 2 seconds of driving, or an image with two cars and arrows between them with 2s on the arrow.

    I really like using this application and I was very pleased with the improvements, specifically 50 in the circle and the note that after *** m the speed will be reduced. It really saves gas and brakes, because if I'm 90 km/h and I take my foot off the gas, I arrive at the village at just 50-60 km/h.

    Thanks for your work

20. The vehicle speed set to 0 and map display jumps on GPS blinds spots

    The Speed Problem:
    I noticed that when the car enters a cave my speed per hour gets reset back to 0 and when I leave the cave it goes back.

    Plus - The Map Display Problem:
    When I get inside the cave the map display feature of the car/arrow icon stops working:
    (the car/arrow icon would stop moving and then jump back to the end of the cave when I leave).

    I believe that the map feature and speed is working by gps to locate the vehicle location and time to calculate the speed which makes the car km/h / m/h to be not accurate:
    Meaning that when I enter a blind spot from gps, the car location won't be changed and the map display of the car would just stay put ,
    Plus - When the car location is not changing then the cars speed would be set to 0 by the calculation cause it's using only the location change over time.

    My solution to this problem is to make an option which you can take the speed from the car itself without having the trouble of calculating it yourself. -

    Most people of this time have already made the switch to electric vehicles which have the base "computer" inside of them which shows the driver their speed and allows them to download certain apps to their vehicle such as Spotify and Itunes.
    Plus - For some of those vehicles the Waze app could be added.
    Meaning that the Waze app would be able to request from the car the ability to track its speed.

    With this solution we can find out exactly at what speed the car is driving at all times without worrying about calculations.

    With this information we can also know roughly the exact location of the car.
    How do we do it?
    Simple. We just take the speed of the car and multiply it with the time that has passed.
    For example:
    Speed = 90km/h
    We would place a constant variable for the Time to be 1 Second that would not change ( it would mean that the map display would change every 1 second)
    Then:
    We calculate it by this equation:
    Distance = Speed in km/h * Time in hours

    For our example:
    First we need to change it from km/h to m/h:
    90 / 3.6 = 25 m/s
    Then Distance = Speed * Time:
    Distance = 25m/s * 1s
    Distance = 25 meters

    After that we can know the distance the car traveled the past second, and we can add it to the map along the road.
    And I know what you all think.
    WHAT IF the Car driver choose to reverse or change a path in the middle of the road.
    And that's why this function would ONLY work where there is no connection to GPS, and then when we get back connection to GPS the car would jump back to the location from the GPS.

    There for we can now know the exact location of the car on the road, Plus - we can know its speed at any given time(NOTE: This feature could replace the current way of speed tracking on any road).

    Another Solution IF we can't use the vehicle speed:
    We can also use the vehicle speed for the past 5 seconds before going into the blind spot + use other cars past records speeds of driving in that road and the speed numbers of vehicle users there are on the same road at the moment, and get the average speed of all of them.
    The way we can know the speed of vehicle users who drove this road in the past?:
    Simple,
    we just do the exact same equation from before just placing the time as the time they spent on the road and the distance of the road.

    And then we know the speed and we can find the location of the vehicle on the map just like we did before.

    That's my solution I hope you liked my detailed explanation and give me a feedback!
