1. Sharing phone accelerometer data as an early warning to slow

   Imagine being able to see around corners to know that someone has just braked really hard up ahead
   or swerved lanes? Waze could collect acceleration data and use it as an early warning to cars behind.

   The DriveScore app uses the same phone accelerometer data to provide personal driving style feedback to the owner. But wouldn't it be so much better to share it with the cars nearby?

   As an example, if every driver in lane 3 of a motorway is slowing, changing lanes then speeding up again at the same static location, there will likely be a common cause for the acceleration changes, such as a stranded vehicle, accident or other obstruction. This was the case for me at Christmas when on a tight bend connecting 2 motorways I came across at accident in lane 2 and had to swerve to avoid it, as did everyone behind me. If only my phone could have warned those behind.

   Even in good traffic, by combining the same detailed GPS and accelerometer data from multiple cars, Waze would be able to identify common patterns in speed and acceleration, such as vehicles changing lanes at the same a relative point along a motorway which would indicate that there is a slow moving vehicle ahead.

2. Edit Pothole Location If Passed

   sometimes it takes time to click report and select the option of a pothole. But by this time, you have either passed it or are unable to use your phone for Whatever reason such as inability to touch phone screen etc. So having the ability to show on the map where the pothole was would help users of the app avoid the pothole before getting to it as my experiences that I hit the pothole before I’m warned about it. Sorry for example, just like when you order an Uber taxi, you are able to drop a pin showing your location.

   Just like on this app, where you can show a road closure by selecting the correct arrow, this would be perfect for showing where the pothole was on the road. This would avoid users hitting the pothole as we are usually warned about it after hitting it.

3. 200 meter alert

   Waze is great, but the turn announcements aren't as good as my 2006 Garmin Nuvi. They tend to be at 5 minutes, 1 mile, and right now! Several times, I have let my guard down and been in the wrong lane and unable to turn at the "turn right" cue immediately before an exit. A time/speed/distance based "turn coming" reminder at about 200 meters would be very helpful.

4. How do I update the Waze maps it uses. I have a turn lane that Waze doesn't recognize and programs an alternate route that is impractical.

   When I leave my complex, there is only a right turn. So to go the opposite direction a U turn must be made. Waze doesn't have the convenient place to U turn in it's maps. How do I amend the maps to include it.

5. Add Completely Custom Routes

   I would like the option to draw my own route. I often use Waze, not just to get places I've never been, but to time my arrival to places locally and be alerted to traffic incidents.

   Overall I love Waze, but I can't use it much because it wants to "optimize" my route, which often takes me straight through dangerous construction areas (single lane concrete barrier interstate death chutes). We have a ton of construction in my area right now on almost every major road. I don't want to avoid all highways or interstates or even all of one interstate, but I'd like to choose to take a longer route around very specific sections that either often have very sudden large traffic jams, or that just make me anxious due to the poor quality of the traffic management.

   To my knowledge, there are no navigation apps that allow a customer to make their own route from start to finish. I've actually considered going back to paper maps and a highlighter, but that won't give me a time estimate or traffic info. Please let us make a custom route and save it. It would be a game changer for me and others in our area.

7. Android Auto Version

   Android Autos version of Waze is too limited.

   *Pave option should be added
   *Comments on reports allowed, even if only by voice input (very helpful for map editors on both ends)
   *Allow reading of map comments, even if not replying. Many times this includes important information like the lane of an issue.
   *Allow for location search, using voice if needed of locations while moving. Even my car from 2014 can do that much.

   If none of those, add a toggle button that allows app use to be switched between phone and car screen, which will solve everything, to include being able to submit PURs.

8. ‘Zoom in to issue’ from route overview

   The ‘route overview/timeline’ is good but it doesn't let you understand what the issues on your route are in any detail just has the logos eg 3 traffic, a broken down car and police

   Can I click on the issues to quickly zoom to an overview of that area so I know where those police are, what kinda traffic disruption it is.

   Sometimes these are normal eg the traffic at those temp lights. Other times it could be I big deal eg the beginnings of an unplanned closure and diversion.

   Currently if planing a long drive I would have go go to the map and manually scroll along the route to under stand what the issue is.

9. Offer way for users to edit/correct/identify false reports OR...

   Have a way for users to contest a traffic notice entered by other users. Here in Los Angeles we use a lot of residential streets, especially to get through the canyons. Lately, residents on smaller streets have been adding fake/erroneous notices such as hazards (e.g., construction) or road closures to try to get drivers to take other routes. It would be great if Waze had one of three options: users can delete false reports, users can comment on reports for all users to see (not just the person who reported the issue), or a thumbs down feature so that other users have some indication of what is going on. OR...Waze could find a way to track erroneous entries and ban those users.

10. About traffic information

    We propose the use of Bing Maps traffic information in combination with Waze bots as an effective means of responding to natural disasters. This combination will improve disaster response by providing fast and accurate road closure information.

    First, Bing Maps traffic information provides real-time traffic conditions across a wide geographic area. This can be used to quickly determine which areas are affected in the event of a disaster. However, for information on road closures and other detailed road conditions, community-based approaches such as Waze bots can be beneficial.

    Waze bots provide instant information on traffic conditions and road closures by allowing users to provide information to each other in real time. This allows for flexibility to respond to detailed information or sudden changes that are missing from Bing Maps information.

    The proposed system integrates traffic information from Bing Maps with Waze bot data to provide users with comprehensive and accurate road closure information. The system will also facilitate community-wide cooperation by allowing users to share information immediately in the event of a disaster.

    This integrated approach will enable rapid response to natural disasters and will be an effective tool to support residents and rescue efforts in affected areas. We hope you will consider this proposal as a means of combining community cooperation and the use of technology to achieve safer and more efficient disaster response."

12. Map & Command more like Google!

    PLEASE READ & VOTE!!
    Instead of “Turn right / left in .1 miles” (esp. for in-town and city driving) change to Google-like commands (e.g.- “At the next light / stop sign, turn right/left) and SHOW Device - light or sign at corners - on the map, as such - sign or light).
    Doing so also helps to know HOW MANY lights or signs remain between you and your next turn.
    It’s impractical to watch your mileage in these conditions. It’s more “natural” - as when someone is telling you directions in the passenger seat - to look for the next sign or, or light, corner. Or, “Not at this light, but the next”, and so forth.
    More “preemptive” lane suggestions, in these busy conditions, would be a great enhance as well.
    Google Maps is FAR better, in the city, than Waze in these respects. Must catch up!

13. Link address from other apps

    Most functional Waze yet! Navigation seems spot on and not obtrusive like Google's offering. Main thing is Waze is really accurate! Google Maps loses its way and gets me lost! Like the fresh look of Waze. Loads really fast on Note 4 Marshmallow. Love the send ETA so people I choose can monitor my drive in real time!

    Few wish list items and believe me, not trying to turn Waze into Google Maps! So just the essentials..

    1. Could use lane assist.

    2. Need to get links from Yelp, Google Now, and other websites to share the actual destination not unknown street address as Waze reports today.

    3. Heads up notification needed when in other apps and driving.

    4. Point of destination...Use Google data and pics rather than user pics? Could have both.

    5. Organize favorites into categories! Must have. Long lists of favorites without any organization is not

14. Context-Aware Voice Instructions

    To improve the clarity and relevance of voice instructions in Waze, I propose integrating advanced contextual awareness into the navigation system. This feature would include:

    Detailed Contextual Cues

    1.  Landmark-Based Instructions:
    • Incorporate landmarks and notable points of interest into navigation prompts. For example, “Once you go past the Costa Coffee on your right, prepare to turn right” or “After you pass the second set of traffic lights, switch to the left lane and prepare for a left turn.”
    2.  Milestone Guidance:
    • Provide instructions based on specific milestones in the journey. For instance, “Continue straight until you reach the large intersection by the gas station, then turn left.”
    

    Dynamic Instructional Enhancements

    1.  Sequential Directions:
    • Offer sequential guidance for complex maneuvers. For example, “Prepare to switch to the left lane as you approach the traffic lights, and then make a left turn immediately after the lights.”
    2.  Adaptive Details:
    • Adjust the level of detail based on driving conditions and user preferences, such as providing extra cues in busy or unfamiliar areas.
    

    Enhanced Turn-by-Turn Notifications

    1.  Clear Action Reminders:
    • Include clear reminders of upcoming actions with context, such as “In 500 meters, move to the left lane and then turn left at the next intersection, right after passing the bank on your right.”
    

    Visual and Auditory Synchronisation

    1.  Synchronise Visual and Auditory Cues:
    • Ensure that visual instructions on the map align with auditory instructions, providing a cohesive and understandable navigation experience. For instance, as the app announces “Turn right at the next intersection,” the map should clearly highlight the turn location and nearby landmarks.

15. "Prefer Freeways" instead of "Avoid Tolls"

    Currently, you can set Waze to 'avoid tolls' which is handy - but this prevents Waze from recommending tollways when there is traffic on the freeway. For example, in Dallas we have 635 and 635 Express. Both follow the exact same path, the only difference is the express lanes cost around $5. It would be very nice if Waze would prefer the freeway, but still recommend the tollway if there is significant traffic reported on the freeway.

    Also, Waze seems to have trouble telling if I am on the freeway or tollway, since they are basically right next to each other (in some areas they are actually right on top of each other). I'm not sure what, if anything, can be done about this - but FYI...

16. Make a police in motion icon.

    The Icon will move at the with the current speed of the Wazer who tapped it. The Icon would move for 1 KM and then dissappear. This would be helpful for those speeding in the HOV lanes or going opposite traffic. Police have radars that will track you if you are approaching them now.

17. Turn traffic, ability to report and to use in navigation

    There must be an option to report traffic for a specific turn. The reason is that a given road may be moving well through an intersection, but specifically a left turn lane onto an intersecting road can be jammed. In such a case the navigator won't use that road to turn left and find another route.

    As an example. Let's say I am driving on Main St and there are 3 intersecting roads coming up, Street 1, Street 2, and Street 3. My destination is at Street 2, where I need to turn left from Main St. Waze doesn't know that the left turn from Main St to Street 2 is always jammed, because of bad streetlight timing or another reason, and it will direct me to turn left as Main St in general is moving great. If Waze knew that the left turn is at a standstill then it would have directed me to turn on Street 2 right and make a U-turn, or go further on Main St and make a U-turn, or any other way to get to the destination. If no alternative then of course choose the left turn.

    This ability to report traffic for specific turn should also work for right turns.

18. Cars with caravans

    Could you do routes for cars and caravans. This should take into account the extra width and the difficulty in reversing along country lanes if you meet an oncoming vehicle

19. making sure Waze know what driver you are

    the past few months I've been getting tickets because i was driving in a bus lane. i never knew how i would end up in this situation. until i called up to pay a 500NIS ticket and the lady suggested i check my Waze setting to see what my car is registered under. unfortunately when i check it was registered as a taxi. i now know why i got all those tickets. i don't even remember it asking if i was a taxi, i have never been a taxi driver. all im asking from Waze ks to make a reminder when starting a new route to make sure the average driver isn't getting tickets like i was

20. Avoid traffic jams.

    I often travel with 3 kids on long road trips. Always rather be moving than standing in place with screaming kids and I am SURE a lot of people would agree. I recently had a trip take 10+ hours instead of the original 7 because of completely predictable and avoidable traffic jams on highways. Clearly not there in the middle of the night when I depart but jams there every day since they are because of ongoing construction work on a lane. I kind of assumed waze already tried to help you avoid these but I guess I was wrong. Ran into 4 of them.
    I need a setting to avoid jams appearing on my route with 2 extra parameters: max acceptable length of of a traffic jam (in minutes) and max percentage of remaining trip length added as a consequence of choosing an alternative route.
    This could be via a notification showing you the jam estimated length and the cost of reroute.
    Ex:
    I enable the feature and chose a 10 minute max jam time and a 15% max time increase.
    A notification appears telling me a new jam appeared on my current route. Jam seems 15 minutes long and the alternative route adds 1 hour to my route (10% of my total remaining trip time) and I gladly accept and am rerouted to leave the highway and rather keep moving that waiting in a standstill.
