  1. switch car types in iOS

    Hi, I’m using Waze both with my private car and with my motorcycle.
    In Israel, the vehicle type actually affects the routing itself (motorcycles can legally use different lanes and routes), so switching quickly is very important.
    Right now, every time I want to switch the vehicle type, I need to go deep into the Settings → Navigation menu, and it takes multiple taps.

    Is it possible to add a faster way to switch vehicle type?
    For example:
    • a quick toggle button on the main screen
    • a Siri Shortcut / Shortcuts action
    • or a URL scheme…

  2. Further customizability in route options for drivers (enthusiast drivers)

    Not only do, I feel like the special voices should have street names as well, especially in the age of advanced speech to text and artificial intelligence, but I also feel strongly that there should be more customizability for route options as it relates to those who enjoy the art of driving… there are toggles to avoid freeways and avoid unpaved roads, but why not a toggle for someone who enjoys the freeways, but also enjoys a fun route with minimal traffic… Something along the lanes of a “enthusiast toggle” where it shows a dynamic route with fun, challenge,…

  3. More control for emergency workers and traffic management

    I'm a press photographer in the Netherlands and I see a lot of incidents for my work. By adding some tools, workers on the road can easily report problems and even instructions. For an example: When an accident happens there is sometimes a lot of debris on the road, even though some lanes are still open it's possible that there is debris on those lanes. By adding information, drivers can better adapt to the situations. Adding a tool to give traffic management the option to give information can improve the safety of the people who need to take…

  4. Motorcycle mode.

    As part of the list of requests for "Motorcycle Mode", I'd also like to ask that you add the following feature, something that has literally saved my life. Highlight "Objects on the road" hazards as a high level warning. By that I mean, maybe flash the danger on the UI, and have a different voice over warning. Normally warnings are "Vehicle on side of road". Those aren't a huge hazard, but objects on the road like a blown tire, metal flashing ..etc, are huge dangers for riders.

    A great update to this would also be notifying other drivers that a…

  5. Niles Canyon Advisory for Friday Outbound from Fremont

    FYI...If your app considers Niles Canyon an alternate route out of Fremont on Friday Afternoons - Fahgedaboudit! the backup starts at 2:30 pm and by 3:30 pm it's a nightmare. I drive through Niles canyon as part of my commute. On Fridays, I've noticed that the backup for cars wanting to turn right from Mission Blvd into the canyon is quite extreme to the point that cars are using 2 lanes to make the right turn in. This is adding to the slowdown in the canyon itself and at times the intersection gets blocked and cars want to turn…

  6. Improve safety:

    Make it easier to report issues on the road so that we don't really have to take our eyes off the road to make the report..

    Now if I want to report an object or car, I need to press way too many buttons while driving. It's a huge distraction and we don't need so many details.

    You can change it to a simple "Warning" instead of specifying exactly what it is (object? car? police? ...)...I would have a warning button that's always in the corner of the screen, and then a big interface pops up where you choose if…

  7. I have several ideas

    First I have been through 2 permanent speed cameras Waze did not warn me about. Although it might say turn in 300 metres, I have no conception of distance and if a few streets are close I don’t know which one and It needs to tell you to turn here about 2 secs earlier then it does I miss streets and need to be in other lanes to turn esp. in the city where there are lots of one way streets and turn only lanes. I’m on iPhone and I hate that it turns off Siri google DOES…

  8. Electric Vehicle

    Hello Devs,

    I am currently in Ontario. I own an electric vehicle (with plate something like GVXX 123).
    In Ontario, as far as I am aware of, all HOV Lanes are eglible to use the HOV even if there's only the driver on the vehicle. I believe in British Colmbia it's the same.

    By default, even if I have my vehicle type set as "Electric", Waze still try to navigate me outside HOV/Avoid HOV all together.

    I understand everytime when I need to navigate to somewhere, the app will ask me "2+ People for HOV access". However in real…

  9. Safety Warning

    I’d like to address a serious safety concern regarding Angeles Crest Highway. This road is extremely dangerous due to its sharp turns, narrow lanes, and proximity to sheer mountain edges. Drivers are often faced with oncoming traffic and either the edge of the mountain or the rocky mountainside. It is, without a doubt, the most terrifying road I’ve ever traveled.

    Adding to the danger, there are no streetlights or cellphone reception. While it may appear as a shorter route compared to congested freeways, it is not safe and should include a clear warning when suggested as a route on…

  10. Deroute

    Hello
    Last time when I went abroad, the road closure was not updated on the map. So I had to turn onto a different road than the one in the navigation. The navigation kept trying to return me back to that turn even though there was a roadblock (since I don't know the area I don't think it would be appropriate for me to suggest a roadblock and it's not even safe to do it while driving).
    - My suggestion is that if I turn onto a different road to the one in the navigation, then let it offer a…

  11. crucial alerts should be more informative and different from normal ones

    Please inform user about Vignette condition and effect on the routes (in Switzerland)!

    I am an avid fan and frequent user of waze. literally anywhere and anytime I am planning a route I use waze, and I always suggest and inform people about its benefits. But Yesterday we had a very bad experience using it.
    Our trip was from Vaduz to Grindelwald (Switzerland)
    Waze always alarms about C- Zones, Toll roads at the beginning of choosing the route, ... and it did the same about vignette but the confusing thing is that it did not say that we have to…

  12. Why did Waze take me on a toll/HOV Road

    okay the people of Waze i live in Illinois and i think we have 3 or more tolls now i am in your ask a question category off my iPhone and i read that you guys don't have an option to enable or disable express landes or HOV lanes why is that? So when i go to Midway airport i see that there are 2 roads that lead to the tolls. Now my Question is when are you going to put that coin symbol on your app to let people know that they are taking a toll road because…

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

  13. New hiden speed cameras in athens not shown on map

    TO: Google & Waze – Traffic and Maps Division
    SUBJECT: Missing speed/red light cameras in Athens & National Highway – Immediate risk for users

    Dear team,

    I’m a professional taxi driver who drives tens of thousands of kilometers every year in Athens and on the Athens–Lamia National Highway. I use Waze and Google Maps daily. However, the lack of updated data on new cameras has become a serious risk for your users.

    What’s happening:

    1. In Athens:

    Dozens of new traffic cameras have been installed on major roads (Kifisos Ave., Kifisias, Dyrrachiou, Moschato, Nea Filadelfia, etc.).

    These are white with black…
