Proposer une synthèse des trajets avec et sans péage
Bonjour, en tant qu'utilisateur, j'aimerais que waze me propose le trajet avec et sans péage, en indiquant la distance et l'heure d'arrivée de chacune des solutions. Cela permettrait de faire rapidement un choix éco(logiquement et nomiquement) responsable.

Tap map for more acurate alerts
Sometimes i go to make a report and im ofline, or i was just turning off the highway but could see a coo taking radar ahead of me, so it be nice to be able to touch map then hit alert button for more acurate alerts, but also keep it like it is now where you can just hit alert and it will make the alert where you are, have this as a second option for whatever reason , atleast allow a certain radius so you cant just make alerts up anywhere on the map

Flash directions section of the screen when approaching turn
When approaching a turn flash the directions section of the screen a few times. This allows for users that use waze with the volume down but can still alert them to an approaching turn by getting their attention.

Adding Social Distancing reminder notification
During this pandemic, I think it would be a really good move for Waze to add some sort of notification reminding users of the social distance recommendations such as wearing a mask, standing 6ft apart, and washing hands. I imagine this would look similar to the notification that pops up when the app is being used while the vehicle is in motion, reminding the driver about safe driving, except this notification should pop up right after the driver presses go. As Waze is used by many, I think this is a great way to take action and do your part…

EV charging list filters
It would be perfect to see/sort/filter the charging list with distance (to current position, regardless of added time) availability, and charging speed. When a charger is needed, it should be possible to pick from a couple of closer, available and faster selection.

Police alerts
My request is that you create another alert option which is police alerts alone. That is, the options should be: sound on, alerts, police only alerts, and no alerts. For me, the only real alert that I care about is if there are police or speed cameras.
When I use your app, I typically silence alerts because I don't want to hear about cars stopped on the side of the road and approaching railways, etc. I understand that's important to some people, but for me it just interrupts my music/podcast.

Speed camera alert under menu Police
Hi
After my last voyage I found that waze doesn't have a lot of marked speed cameras the same with sectional speed measurement. For example in Czech republic. I had to use other app to get alerts. Why waze let us Mark speed cameras In new menu or under police menu. It would be easier to refresh database.
Under police should be option to mark type of services like border guards, police or road inspection of transport.1 vote -
State line
When crossing into a different state it would be nice to receive an audible alert and/or a pop up notification that you have crossed into a new state like Google maps does. When on a long road trip sometimes we don’t know what state we have crossed into and it would be helpful to get notified.

nombre d'utilisateurs autour de vous
Au démarrage de waze il nous affiche le nombre d'utilisateur autour de nous mais nous ne savons absolument pas sur quelle distance. Cette information est extrêmement floue. J'aimerais pouvoir choisir la distance de cette information car rien ne me confirme que les autres utilisateurs sont proche de moi et rien ne me l'indique aussi en navigation. J'aimerais avoir la distance exacte du wazer devant moi pour savoir si ma route est sure.
When Waze starts it shows us the number of users around us but we have absolutely no idea over what distance. This information is extremely vague.…

Voice instrction
Hello,
I am a diligent and passionate user of waze. I want you to integrate a function that allows you to choose that the traffic voice instruction should be spoken once at half distance rather than 3 times.
Best regards.
Excellent day.

Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram. -
iOS 16 CarPlay Bugs
After the update to iOS 16, the Waze alerts changed their appearance with CarPlay. They no longer show distance, just one dull close button.

Upgrade the "Add a Stop" function to sort the destinations (gas, food, coffee) from closest to farthest
Upgrade the "Add a Stop" function to sort the destinations (gas, food, coffee) from closest to farthest.
Right now, if you are in the midst of a long trip and click "Add a stop" and ask see options (for food or gas or coffee) you see locations near your destination.
Suggestion is to add distance options, like "show closests first".
What good is a gas station that is 125 miles away? ;)12 votes -
Re-enable Other Side Police Reporting
Otherside Police Reporting- This was probably one of the best features of the App- other than the same side regular police notification. It gives a warning for less traveled roads that may have a Waze user traveling in the other direction on a less traveled road whereas a same way traveler has not yet passed and left an Alert. PLEASE BRING THAT FEATURE BACK ASAP!

Routing
Hello.
In the routing section, it's best to have an option assigned to routing based on two simultaneous factors, distance and time.

Ability to self identify as a slow moving moving vehicle or runner.
This feature would allow one to self identify as a slow moving object updating one's position as necessary (every .2 miles?), alerting approaching vehicles. This would allow a runner or a horse rider or road working crew to alert drivers to be alert as the approach. Perhaps with "hazard" lights on the main screen so the user knows they activated this feature. The feature would self disable above 25 mph. And perhaps reactivate below 25 mph unless disabled.

Live Alerts Notifications for my favorite/default routes
Currently there is a feature for Travel planning to schedule departure times, but not always used for most common routes or favorites (for example going home), and I think need to be set every time you plan a travel...
The idea is to be able select routes from my favorites or set specific routes (start to finish points) and if some specific type of alert (that we can define, e.g Accidents, or delay time, etc) is posted in Waze on that way, we can receive a real time Waze Notification, Message and/or email with that type of alert at the…

Connect Waze to sireneradar.com to let Waze show a warning of an approaching emergency vehicle.
In the Netherlands we have the sireneradar.com initiative. Most emergency services are connected to this system.
The location of the police/fire/ambulance-vehicle is reported realtime to the platform, That data is available to navigation vendors like TomTom and Flitsmeister, and they sound and display a warning to their users for an approaching emergency vehicle.
This way the Waze users get an early warning, so they can be extra alert when they need to.

Select Alerts
Please make it so you can elect which alerts you want to receive during navigation. On long drives, there are multiple alerts that aren't necessarily relevant. Selecting only police, traffic, and hazards IN the road would eliminate a lot of alerts.

Road trip mode: track progress since activation, share milestones
For longer, multi-stage trips, a more robust kind of logging might be useful. This "road trip" mode would keep track of the distance traveled since activation, and post a message on Twitter, Facebook, etc. when a milestone has been passed (e.g., passing a predetermined amount of miles or crossing a state/provincial/national boundary).
