  1. Carpool

    Após aceitar caronas no Waze, o percurso até o local pra pegar o Solicitante simplesmente não carrega e na única vez que carregou, o App cancelou a solicitação no meio do caminho, fazendo que eu perdesse tempo e quem solicitou achasse que mudei de ideia.

  2. Temporary HOV/Carpool lanes

    If I'm in a 2+ vehicle, it would be nice if a route preferred HOV lanes. In my area, there is a "temporary" HOV lane which has a different direction in morning and evening. (See US-93 between Boston and Braintree MA)

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

  3. Bring back “on the fly” view/select alternate routes & carpool!

    My ability to view/select alternate routes, including carpool option has disappeared with the latest update. Please restore it. Thanks!

  4. Waze Carpool: Customers should NOT have to have a Google or Facebook account to use Waze Carpool (as is currently the case).

    Customers should NOT have to have a Google or Facebook account to use Waze Carpool (as is currently the case). As a racial minority in the US that relies on carpooling, I find it very problematic that I have to have a Facebook or Google account (see diversity, equity and inclusion issues with both companies, as well as a host of other issues). Why can't I just sign up as a normal human being, non-customer of Facebook or Google? Thank you!

  5. Add an option to change carpool pickup location

    This has happened to me twice, as a driver: a carpool ride has been agreed and approved, while driving to the pickup location, the passenger called and we agreed on a more convenient pickup location, not far away from the original location set by the App. After the pickup, both the passenger and I couldn't tell the App that the pickup has been made, and while driving to the drop-off location, the App kept directing us back to the original pickup location. Eventually the ride was not recognized as carpool and no payment made.

  6. unable to unsubscribe from Waze carpool rider

    In my google payment I seem to have a subscription to "Waze carpool rider" that I must of setup a few years ago. I never used it, but it's active and connected to my active credit card which bothers me and I have no option to unsubscribe there. Since this app is not existing anymore, I can't unsubscribe from within it and in the regular Waze app there's no option either.

  8. Carpool קארפול

    להחזיר את קארפול ישראל.
    היה מאוד שימושי וחבל שאין אותו יותר.
    גם ככה התחבורה הציבורית בישראל גרועה אז לפחות היה קארפול.

  9. Would like carpool system for non-commute activities

    We need a way to connect people in carpools who are going to the same hike or outing, or perhaps a concert or performance. Different from a commute carpool in that each occasion is unique.
    People in outdoor organizations care about their carbon footprint, yet unless they are actual friends with someone they usually don’t have a way to arrange rides or carpooling.

    It would be great to be able to have each club sponsor/pay for Waze and enable all their members planning to go on a specific outing to connect with each other to arrange to carpool

  10. Waze carpool - Join my ride instead of changing my route

    As a (potential) driver in Waze-carpool, I'd like to enter the route I'm about to use and wait for passengers to take a ride along that route. In the current state i refuse a lot of rides because i don't want to add time to my route.

  11. Make Waze carpool work also for drivers who drive more than 100 kilometers.

    First I thought this was a bug., but...
    As it was clearly explained to me by Waze support, Waze carpool does not work for drivers who make long rides, and Waze has no intention of fixing it.
    Waze carpool only match with passengers which have similar characteristics of the ride .
    This is proven easily. The shorter the ride you plan, the more passengers you have, on the same route.
    I suggest allowing picking passengers at any spot on the way and doping them at any spot on the way.

  13. accelerating the carpool idea by involving the goverment

    Solving the public transportation weakness by making the carpool idea safe and payment easy and automatic. Involving the goverment ministries data base in order to make the identification of the passenger and driver safe and easy (finger print?) and the payment for the ride automatic. This join venture with the govermant is a win win situation . The goverment will improve the public transportatio with a low investment and Waze will enter the public transportation business.

  14. Carpool - add the relevant date and time of day to the automatic messages.

    Feature request:

    When i send a carpool request, this is the message sent to the driver:
    "Hey, can I join your carpool?"

    Some drivers first look at the message and not at the request, so they think that i mean that i need a ride today.
    It happened to me at least 5 times already. I had to tell them that the message was sent automatically, and i am not sure which request is associated with it.

    Please add the relevant date and time of day (morning, evening...) to the automatic messages.

  15. Ability to turn off "tool bars". ie. Carpool, My Waze, and Search bars

    We need a way to turn off these tool bars if not being used.
    They make this app mostly unusable, especially in landscape orientation, as they take up a large part of the screen.
    I don't carpool, i dont need the search bar on when I'm driving. Same for My Waze.
    Just a small button to access this would be fine.
    Please make a way to turn these off.

  16. Something similar to Destination mode in Lyft in Waze Carpool

    People who have been lyft drivers would know about this. In lyft driver world, lets say the driver wants to go somewhere and wants to pick up passengers who are going to the same destination. He can set something called destination mode. So people requesting for lyft rides at the same time and same general destination will be routed to the drivers. Currently I am seeing that waze carpool is limited to morning and evening commutes. Why not open up the feature to all registered waze carpool drivers and users. So if a waze driver is going a particular direction…

  17. Add option to select car pool when navigating

    Lets popup "carpool?" button after choosing destination in carpool times. This will help to get corresponding exits and more precise calculations. Sometimes traffic stopped while carpool is open and I dont want to get average estimation and alternative route. Thanks!

  18. Add an option where you can choose whether you will be using a carpool lane so that

    Add an option where you can choose whether you will be using a carpool lane so that traffic and ETA data are more accurate. If many members in a given area are using carpool lanes, they will bring the average speed up and ETA will be sooner than actual. There are times where my ETA has increased by 30 minutes on a 1 hour drive.

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

  19. Carpool around my schedule

    You are onto something pairing people heading in the same direction. HOWEVER, please find a way to have me input my work schedule so you know when I'm heading to and from the city. You offer me passengers at 7AM when I'm working at 2PM for example. Remember me when this is implemented and you make a fortune! Thanks, Adam Rose
