Stop telling us how to live our lives
I had stopped using Waze because it seemed to like to tell me how to live my life. I gave it another try after months, and, amazing, no asking me if I'm a passenger, no telling me to socially distance or stop traveling. Did they learn their lesson or is this just a phase? Have they decided to just be a good GPS app now and not the social police?

Provide way to stop alternative routes
Please provide a way to stop alternative routes during heavy traffic. This app goes too far in creative ways to cut down time that 75% of the time do not pan out well for me and I am later than originally predicted. 15 min late for appointment in Seattle because this app suggested a left turn in the I-99 tunnel that was not physically possible. I have also had the app reroute me to a literal dead end leaving the Oregon Coast when a time saving suggestion way provided.

Route options display
Would prefer the option of alternative routes to be displayed after selected routes as previous, the current version only reflected prior to a route being selected and no changes of routes could be made after that, unless to stop the navigation and re-route

Finer control of what hazards display on the map.
This request seeks to add a finer control of which type of things appear on the map. I don't need to see construction crews, or weather hazards, or missing signs. I only need to see road debris, stopped vehicles, roadside assistance requests, and police. But currently, the options don't give you the choice of specific things you would like to see.
What I'm proposing is to break out the current "Hazards" category under Display & Map / Details on Map into each of the hazard categories available, so that users can select or deselect the hazards they care about seeing…

Fewer taps to make a report
When using CarPlay (or even my phone when I'm the right-side passenger), to report a vehicle stopped on the side of the road I must tap the orange "Report" circle, choose "Hazard," "Shoulder," "Vehicle Stopped." In CarPlay, when driving that takes my eyes from the road at least four times to identify/locate/push the appropriate button to make the report. Rather than spelling out the words for each part of the notice - perhaps readily identifiable icons could be "stacked" under the headings. As with "QWERTY," there are gestures/reports most often used that could be located in priority locations on the…

Select what hazards to hear
Allow the user to select what notifications to hear. I don’t care about stopped cars but I do about objects on the road or police.
Most notifications are for stopped cars and I honestly have turned off all notifications and just hope I see relevant info on the map.
Needs to work with CarPlay etc as well.

Stopping a street as cut through woodwardia
How do we stop Waze from recommending people cut through a residential street to go around traffic? The system has people cutting through woodwardia drive right through a residential neighborhood association with mostly private streets in the 90077 area code. It causes at times 10 car backups on the streets and is ridiculous when you are trying to get out of your own driveway

Go button or the "ready to go" screen between different stretches with stop points
I was using a Waze on a two-way path. When it arrived at the end of the first stretch, the application soon began the journey for the second stretch. I suggest having a go button or the "ready to go" screen between different stretches with stop points. The app could expect me to have something to do before continuing travel. This function could be optionally configured to show or not in the settings.

Australian TTS voice Kylie is only available while I'm in Australia - why region-lock voices?
We live in a world where people aren't restricted by country borders, and so it's always frustrating when you're faced with a feature or an app on your phone that's not available simply because of where in the world you might currently be.
I'm Australian and have really embraced using Waze over Google Maps over the years. One of the reasons this has been so easy is because of Kylie, the TTS voice I have selected. However, when I go to another country Kylie suddenly stops being available and Waze sounds British or American with no option to change it…

say im at a red light
My idea is for the waze app. I was using my waze and while I was driving and I stopped at a stop light. Waze asked me if I was stuck in traffic cause it noticed that I'm not moving and it doesn't let me say ithat im stuck at a red light.
Thank you for your time.2 votes -
Default Icons for Common Selections on main selection screen instead of going through menu selections
Allow users to create defaults for commonly used selections.
Example, when car is located on a route on the side of the road, you have to select hazard -> on shoulder -> vehicle stopped.
Would be nice to have the button vehicle stopped on main screen as it is one of the most common selections I choose.
