Show traffic, not map for regular trips
For routes I take every day, I'd prefer to see a stacked, summary of each turn together with anticipated delays for each turn.
Almost like the list view at the top right of the map, but with traffic on it and with the non-congested parts, diminished.

Speed limit indication on map
I would be nice to have the speed limit on the map.
3 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.

2-way road option when munching & mapping new roads
Most roads that I've ever driven on are 2-way roads, yet waze assumes that any new road recorded or cookie munched is on a 1-way road. I'd like a client option to default them to 2-way, since I know that there are areas where 1-way roads prevail. If I happen to munch a 1-way road while in 2-way mode, I can easily correct it in cartouche later, but I'd much rather correct 3-5% of the roads (or less) than 95-97%.

Remove "Missing Overpass" map error report category.
That vast majority (all but maybe 1 or 2, in all the time I have been editing) of reports for "Missing Overpass" have been for overpasses that exist on the map, but are invisible at highway speeds on the app. Because some users do not understand how speed-based zoom works, that assume these overpasses are missing, and report every one they drive under until someone responds to a UR explaining why they don't see them. This is causing a large amount of unnecessary UR's and subsequent follow-up. In the US anyway, it would seem we could do completely without this…

Doesn’t direct you to the house number, only to start of street
Had the same problem again today drove to an address which the same street was on both sides of a cross road, Waze told me to turn left when I should have turned right as it was a high house number, pain in the backside as it has happened on multiple occassions, I am going back to google maps until this is introduced it really is such a simple thing but so important

Love WAZE! But Samsung Level U earphones not connecting.
I have syncd Bluetooth & made sure app plays thru to phone speaker. Phone calls, Google maps, Music all work thru earphones but not Waze. I really prefer Waze over Google Maps since I am UBER/LYFT driver and don't want passengers to hear directions. Please HELP!

New front screen warning
Hi all. I think we need a new front screen, just after you type your destination. This new screen will give you traffic info and route options like Google Maps does and more. Like and advanced warning before your drive starts. Otherwise you can just think, why has this diverted me? Then not bother and carry on ignoring the re route.

recycling Feature
Dear Waze, I am a sixth grader at Spring Creek Elementary in Dallas, Texas. My robotics team and I are working on our project for the First Lego League City Shaper season. The goal of the project this season is to somehow improve our city. We are acknowledging that the world is having a hard time recycling. Would you help our cause and consider adding a special feature on Waze or Google Maps that shows where recycling bins owned by stores and other buildings that have signed up to have their recycling bin available to the public. Recycling is important since…

improve interface with Apple Carplay
When I plug my phone into the Carplay connector, I can use Waze with my car speakers, but it overrides the radio and doesn't switch back to the radio when Waze is done speaking. So every time Waze talks to me, I have to take my hand off the wheel to switch back to the radio. No wonder people use Apple maps!

disable popups
Please provide the means to disable popups. I like the flags. The popups block half the screen, are irrelevant, and recenter the map.

Serious mapping issue on NY Rt 17 problem
Waze appears to only recognize NY Route 17 and part of CT Route 84 westbound. On the afternoon of August 3rd and on a prior trip 6 weeks ago, I drove to Ithaca NY from Orange, CT - a 4 hour drive. On the way to Ithaca, Waze gave me the fastest, most direct route, which included NY Route 17 and CT Route 84, but on the return trip, Waze suggested taking me WAY northbound, so 70 miles out of my way, adding 1 hour to my drive, but On the first trip in late June, I assumed that there…

Route color coding.
In navigation programs currently route to go is shown in single colour.
It can be colour coded to show descent and ascent, with intensity of colour changing according to steepness.
That would decrease risks when overtaking, as descents are hard to spot, and another car can be hiding there.
Current maps can be updated, when there are changes in altitude not matching ones known in app. No manual work would be needed; averages of reporting can be used.5 votes -
Update and embed into the memory local shelters, hospitals, and evacuation routes, via our IP Pat. No. 7,612,680 let's talk
Update and embed into the memory of all electronic devices the location of shelters, hospitals, and evacuation routes, along with standard static information like first aid and CPR. Much like Google in beds maps, this information would be available with or without a connection to the network thus instilling a greater level of confidence monks the end-user. We have this globally protected via the PCT in our issued business process patent patent number 7,612, 680. We also have a way to monetize this as the largest advertising platform in the world because safety is universal.
