Enable speed and associated icons to be placed on the left or the right side of the navigation screen at drivers discretion
Currently speed icons only display on right side of navigation screen. I drive a right hand drive car and speed icons are obscured by steering wheel and indicator stalks. It would be nice to have option to display the icons on the left or the right side of navigation screen at driver's discretion to facilitate clearer display depending on car navigation screen installed position.

Make user icons transparent near traffic cameras
Sometimes when there are too many user icons beside traffic cameras(red light, speed cameras), they block/overlap the camera signs displayed on the map, making users harder to notice upcoming traffic cameras.

Have Waze automatically detect your speed on major roads
I drive the same busy highway every morning (I-64) here in the Hampton Roads of Virginia. A major section of it is under construction. Instead of passengers and/or drivers taking their eyes off the road to manually enter moderate/heavy/standstill traffic, it would be nice for Waze to automatically detect it and publish it to the map since there are enough people using Waze in this area. I'm sure an algorithm can be written that can detect Wazers within a 1-5 mile radius that are traveling at a particular speed and be able to automatically display the 'traffic speed' for…

Keep the last 5 min of your travel speed data so you can see if a cop is "inflating" your speed to give you a more expensive ticket.
Keep a rolling 5 minutes of your travel speed.

Show speed on phone while using carplay
First request: Sorry if in the wrong area.
When using CarPlay the UI on the phone should allow the speed to also be shown. As it currently stands it's only a breakdown of directions and that's it with seemingly zero way to configure what is seen.
Because the CarPlay app notoriously has a poor read of the current speed and often does not show the speed limit like the phone app does (often just shows a speed number but no indication of the speed limit of the area. And will sometimes show how much over an individual is going but…

Being able to customise/modify the sound for the speed limit alert
The sound for the speed limit alert is too weak. It'd be nice to have an option to change the tone for this alert.
Personally I want it to be as obtrusive and as obnoxious as possible

Reduce height of Warnings bar
Using Waze landscape on Android speed camera warnings etc cover up speed indicator, could be half the height, very frustrating and turned off all the warnings.

Show speed limit only in Android Auto
I have a speedometer in my car that I can look at to see how fast in going. I don't need that. Just show the speed limit... By itself.. as it sits now it's just plain silly, it's like 1/16 of an inch and no way to get rid of the speedometer.
2 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Waze should have Patch Notes for every update. Let Users know what has changed with each new version (dropped support, improved support etc)
Patch Notes, like those implemented in every online game in the past two decades, would drastically reduce User issue-reporting (with the app) due to misunderstanding of which Waze features are supported, which are not, which features have lost support and where etc.
Just every time the User updates the app, upon next sign-in, just flash a dialogue box with the latest patch notes (perhaps a link).
As an aside: the Help Center could be more clear and specific about how certain features (e.g., speed camera alerts) work. The exact parameters for getting audible speed camera alerts are not known and…
10 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Add speed limit to Spotify Waze-bar, would work in CarPlay
Waze for CarPlay would be great. But while waiting for that to happen, maybe you could add speed limit to the Waze directions bar in Spotify? I could get both directions and speed limits in my car kitted with CarPlay that way since Spotify works with CarPlay.

Add camera alerts and events
Hello. The camera warning starts from 500 meters, let it be 1000-1500 meters. In Türkiye, we want to have a voice notification when approaching the cameras. We have to constantly look at the screen. When we want to add an event to the map (mobile radar, police, accident....) we want to add an event with voice command on the phone and car play, when we add an event, our hand constantly touches the phone or car play, this makes our driving safety dangerous.

Urgent hint to improve waze fast and easy and get many new users!
How? Speed camera alert (warning) is one of the best and attractive reasons to use waze especially for new users, that have already integrated or portable navigation systems. Mobile (!) Speed traps (cameras, but also radar guns etc.) are the traps, users have the most fear of. But most existing users of waze, who wants to report a mobile (!) speed trap mix up the confusing camera icon with the police (officer) icon, especially in the german version, where the camera icon is named "Blitzer" (means: "flash"). They report mobile speed traps (in german also named as blitzer;…

Please add all New York City School Zone Camera Units to the WAZE maps for the purpose of reducing violations there are over 2,000 in numbr
Please take note by this suggestion that I have incurred many School Zone Speeding tickets since the DeBlasio administration installed over 2,000 camera units throughout New York City, if WAZE provided functionality by visual icon, sound alert or any means informing drivers of the many School Zone Speed Cameras requesting drivers to reduce their speed to 25 mph then this would give rise to a great service and would remediate many violations as well perhaps save incidents of pedestrian accidents. Thank you WAZE.

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…

Speed changes - user cache
Don't know if this counts as a bug or a feature request, please adjust accordingly.
The issue surrounds changes in segment data and the user not entering a navigation resulting in sometimes the user getting wrong information about the speed limit, and the user may not understand why they see the wrong information.
We get this an awful lot when a road has a speed limit change on Motorways and Dual Carriageways. When the speed changes, either to start, or to end, a construction project, we get UR reports from drivers with only a User Drive (GPS trace) and not…
