Security camera voice alert irrespective of type of camera ahead
The app should notify irrespective of being within the limit because the speed reflecting on the app is 3km lesser than the real at all the given times.
Also, the app doesn't even make a distinctive alert sound when there's a camera ahead.I request you to please integrate the verbal notification for a security camera irrespective of the type of camera installed and irrespective of whether the vehicle is under the speed limit coz at a lot of times due to many reasons like conversing while driving, thinking, managing kids etc. and it skips out of the mind.

Recent change, now difficult to report speed limit corrections

Direction Indicators for Speed Cameras
Add a small directional arrow or some kind of indicator next to each speed camera symbol on the map, indicating which direction that camera is monitoring. No indicator if the speed camera monitors both sides, which is rare but still exists.

Permanent displaying of speed-limit
Hi,
I suggest to show permanently the current speed-limit. Not only when I exceed it.
Why don't I know continuously the current speed-limit? If I want to know it I have to exceed it and it is a bit absurd and ridiculous.
If somebody passes by a speed-limit table (for instance during an overtaking) he would like to know the current limit. And anyway.

Enhanced Visual Warning for Speed and Red-Light Cameras
I would like to propose an additional visual alert system for speed and red-light cameras within Waze. The idea is to introduce a transparent red overlay that flashes on the screen as drivers approach a camera location.
This feature would serve as a strong visual cue, especially for users who may not always be actively looking at their GPS display or listening to audio directions. The flashing overlay would draw immediate attention and help ensure drivers are more aware of upcoming enforcement zones.
To keep the experience user-friendly and adaptable, I recommend that this alert be offered as an optional…

Say what alert is for
When there is a pothole, accident or some other alert, these days we just hear a ding. It does not say what the alert is for, you have to look at the screen to see. Rather say "Pothole ahead" etc. The ding sound is the exact same sound my car makes for low fuel. It is extremely annoying to hear the ding every now and again. It also dims the radio/music for a while. Pleas rather just say what the alert is for using your words.

Opposite speed camera reporting and differentiate between front and rear facing speed cameras
Suggestion 1:
Sometimes, when driving, there is a police officer with a camera on the opposite side of the road. However, the app doesn’t have an option to report a “camera on the opposite side,” so we are forced to mark it as “police on the opposite side.” It would be helpful to have a specific option for reporting such cases.Suggestion 2:
Speed cameras generally fall into two categories: those that measure speed from the front of the vehicle and those that measure it from the rear. It would be great if Waze could distinguish between these two types…2 votes -
Auto Detect Speed in Traffic
Instead of the user selecting the "level" of traffic, Waze should automatically detect the user's speed for a specified time and/or distance to calculate an accurate delay due to the traffic. Then Waze should continue to monitor new users as they pass through the traffic zone to determine if the event is still occurring or if it needs to be removed and transit times recalculated.

Speed limit indicator
Change the colour of the 'proportion of speed limit' from grey to green. This would make it easier to see at a glance and mean less time looking away from the road

Route by average speed
Sometimes the app suggests a route with a shorter total time, but with a much greater distance than the other options. For example: 5 minutes less with 10km more. Therefore, I suggest showing the average speed (Distance/Time) of each option.

Hazard reporting wrong way driver, amber alert popup
Send an alert to people in the area of a wrong way driver. Similar to Amber alerts. Notification system for amber alert would reach more people in an area. Suggestion to pull over would reduce the number of accidents

Use road posted speed limits plus user speeds for in route algorythim
This will help find a better route based on posted speed. Also if we could calculate average speed of wayze users in a route area to help adjust for traffic. as in this road has a posting of 50 MPH but average user speed is 25 this equals bad traffic and should re-route to a road that is 35MP with little to no traffic. to set aside from others who do this allow a setting to limite the number of in route routing adjustments. Some may become overwhelmed with to many re-directions on the fly.
The direct route is…

Allow users to suggest speed limit corrections
Currently, speed limits on the map can only be updated by map editors. This process is slow, especially when the main source of information, like Google Street View, is outdated. This leads to inaccurate speed limits or missing data on many road segments.
This suggestion is to add a new reporting option that allows any user to suggest a correction to the speed limit. This would not directly change the speed limit on the map, but it would create a "pending edit" for map editors to review and approve.
How it would work:
A new "Map Issue" report could be…2 votes -
Speed-Controlled Zone Sidebar Removal & Safety Concerns
Dear Waze Team,
I am writing to provide critical feedback regarding the recent UI updates that have negatively impacted the usability and safety of the app.
With recent updates, you removed the historical left-side bar for speed-controlled zones (such as average speed checks or speed enforcement areas). Previously, this sidebar provided an immediate, highly visible overview of where you were within the monitored zone and made it instantly clear that you were driving in a speed-controlled stretch of road. This has been replaced with a small notification window at the bottom of the screen, which is extremely easy…1 vote -
Showing speed in Android app
On Android devices when I enable in Speed menu that always show my speed, I disable always notice, but show notice only if I drive faster than 15km/h, when I hit the limit (at 50km/h the 50km/h) I get a notice with a big traffic sign which cover the real speed. Please fix this issue. If I check notice always it should work like this, but without that checkbox it shouldn't. Thx. Balázs Kovács

The ability to add a speed camera & police checkpoint etc when not driving (GPS)
In NZ we have random police checkpoints & speed cameras
it would be good to have ability to add speed cameras location when stopping further down road or when you have reached destination rather than via GPS
The ability to add a police checkpoint to the (police indicator) with same ability will also be beneficial5 votes -
