Please let us have the option to show ONLY the speed limit sign.
Please let us have the option to show ONLY the speed limit sign when using with an Android Auto car or stereo unit. Currently, it shows both or only the speedometer with the speed limit sign too small to see easily. When I first start up and I'm parked on a street that has a speed limit, the sign is nice and big. Once moving though, the speedometer shows up and the limit sign shrinks down to where it's hard to see.

Support ODB bluetooth dongles
Allow the use of an ODB bluetooth dongle to get a number of improvements. These dongles are quite cheap and provide a wealth of extra data. Possible uses:
[ Better dead reckoning using vehicle speed ]
Using the actual vehicle speed combined with compass, accelerometer and map matching it should be possible to have accurate positioning in tunnels/urban canyons. TomTom does this and is able to do near-perfect positioning with only one GPS datapoint every 30 minutes.[ Monitor fuel usage ]
Things like planning a gas stop could be automated. When the tank gets below a certain…31 votes -
Additional reporting options.
Two immediately spring to mind:
1. when reporting a weather hazard, it would be great to be able to report "sunstrike".
2. the only way to report a stopped car is as an object on the side of the road. The only hazards on the road are things like construction. I have had multiple occassions where I have come across a vehicle stopped on the road. These have not been an accident, rather they have been due to breakdown. An option in the "on road/in lane" category to advise of a stopped vehicle would be great.I love the app…

Allow to rename "Home/Work" labels or at least give option to hide the "Home/Work" icons displayed on the maps
Allowing to rename the Home/Work labels or give the option to not show the Home/Work icons on the maps would be a really useful option to help wazers keep their personal information private. For example I often have work collegues and clients in my car and whenever I drive near my home it's clearly labeled on the map exactly where I live. I do not want everyone at work and clients knowing my home address.. Whenever I have to drive with collegues/clients in my car, I switch to using the iOS Maps app so no one will see my address,…

QR Car Adhesive
Hello! I'm from Brazil and I would like to suggest to Waze create a type of QR car adhesive in order to expand the relationship with those are stuck in the traffic. This adhesive could be the image of the users avatar's. The driver pick-up the QR code in the car nearby from him, take a pic and than, post it in waze. Waze get's the contact and let they talk. It could solve a problem of mine, cause every time I wonder somebody is near of me, just to get in touch, they disappear from my screen.
Thanks.2 votes -
Report single lane stopped traffic on motorway
Sometimes there is a build-up of traffic in lane 1 of the motorway when approaching a junction, due to issues off of the motorway - causing cars to slam on their brakes and sometimes even causing accidents - while lanes 2 and 3 remain free-flowing.
Please allow a way of reporting single lane stopped traffic, or "exit-lane spillover" traffic (not sure how it should be worded).

Reroute traffic from Penelope Avenue in Middle Village Queens
Avoid directing cars onto Penelope Avenue in Middle Village, Queens from Metropolitan Ave and Juniper Vally Blvd. The latter two streets are much better suited for high traffic volume, particularly during rush hour. When drivers are directed to Penelope by Waze, it creates backup as the street is not designed to accommodate the same amount of two way traffic, and has also increased traffic related incidents as a result.

Report map issues on CarPlay screen
When hitting report on the CarPlay screen, Map Issue isn't one of the options. If there is a map issue you cannot even do it from the phone since the display is different. You have to quickly unplug the phone from the car so Waze goes into normal phone mode, and do it from there. That is too much of a dangerous distraction messing around whit phone cables and the phone. Everything in the app should be easily accessible on the car play screen. For transcribing the map issue you can use voice to text, exactly how the iPhone works…

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…

Sometimes im in my motorbike and enable the setting "avoid highways". Then if I forget to disable it and drive my car with android auto:1.- I canno disable the setting from there, therefore, al the time navigation is wrong.
- shoul be nice a setting in AAuto.2.- Also Waze could be smart enough to understand that Im prefering driving using highways.. so at the third "redirection" could make a questio like "do you want to continue using highways?"

Kids in the car alert
Kids in the car alert so we stop hearing sad stories!
Add the option for parents to add this info to their account, maybe even to add their children's names. and upon arrival to destination, make the waze voice say something like: dont forget kids in the car, or dont forget sara in the car....
Same way you make the sound at the beginning of the drive to remind to turn on the lights .
Maybe even make a pop up alert that you can only close by pressing ok.....2 votes -

Add “Wazer Needs Help” indication
The hazard on should feature indicates cars that are stopped and other hazards. Imagine, it would also indicate if that car is a Water in need.
I am suggesting that a Water can indicate if she/he needs help. Adding a toggle box “need help” and possibly specifics, like “out of gas”, “flat tire”, “medical emergency” etc.
I do occasionally stop when a car is on the shoulder with the hazards on and offer my help. Often it’s just a bathroom break but in more than half the cases I am actually able to offer meaningful help.
I believe this feature…

הוספת חניה אוטומטית עם פנגו/סלו או האפליקציות המתחרות בתוך הרכב. כך ניתן יהיה
connecting a build in option so on pre-installed cars with WAZE, the car will automatic recognize the parking and pay using visa, or even alert for 20 seconds after shutting down the engine. so when the car is moving, the app will automatically stop paying for the parking. you will own the parking business
