Report to Multiple Groups
When reporting a traffic jam or something like that, I'd like the possibility of reporting the incident to all the groups I belong to, and not just one of them

Share Scoreboard Info on Facebook
None of the current sharing options for Facebook are appealing to me and the people I know using the client. We would love to share when we hit certain milestones and/or have weekly reports of our Waze Scoreboard progress. This allows us to share Waze with our Facebook friends without revealing our locations (road reports, directions to where we are going). I think sharing these achievements would be the quickest/most effective way to promote Waze on Facebook

Points ticket no longer working on latest Blackberry version
On the Blackberry, the latest version (2.0.2.3) no longer shows the point ticker when collecting points. When you look under View My Points the New Points section is blank. That said it still does seem to be counting new points just not showing them anywhere.

Add option to resize the screen allowing to see all members of a team in special color 4 better view
This option will allow a member of a team to see in a much more easy way, where are the other members of his team.
Another side of this option, could be a live interface on web,... where a member could see the others members of a team.3 votes -
have client generate text file of all unallowed moves while driving to view on computer
I know the system technically does this automatically but I was thinking today as I was going through the cartouche fixing every intersection in my hometown, how it'd be handy if the client generated a text file showing all the things you did that you "shouldn't" have. Almost every intersection in my area has restricted turns that simply don't exist (it's a small town, there's only one turn restriction and no one ways, so i realize this is easier than most) but I was thinking it'd be handy if I could open a txt file generated by the client that says "Turn from First street to Main street not allowed in cartouche". This would then make it much easier to know what intersections need fixed and what ones don't. As I said, I know the client does this automatically, but it also requires repeated input to confirm it's not any number of errors that can occur, but I thought this would be a handy for us that are vigilant map editors.

Alarm notification on new version available, OTA download on BB (optional)
It would be interesting to check when you start the application, if a new version. On Blackberry devices, could have a link to download OTA or AppWorld

Outlines for “area” place types (App/Livemap)
Currently, polygons representing “area” place types in the app and in Livemap are rendered in an overly simplified way, using a uniform fill with no visible outlines. This design choice reduces visual clarity when distinguishing between adjacent areas. In cases where one area is located inside another, the label of the inner area appears to “float” over the outer one, with no clear indication of its limits.
However, there are legitimate scenarios in which representing buildings or facilities as areas within a larger, usually enclosed area is both correct and necessary — especially in complex urban environments such as universities, airports, administrative centers, and similar locations.
It is also worth noting that this limitation does not apply to green areas (nor to police areas, which are rendered in red on Livemap), which can coexist within regular areas without causing the same visual conflicts.
Given this, I propose that Waze restore the display of subtle visual outlines for “area” place types. This simple change would improve map readability and better align the use of area places with real-world mapping needs.

App/livemap: bordas para locais do tipo "área"
Atualmente, os polígonos que representam locais do tipo “área” no app e no Livemap são renderizados de forma excessivamente simplificada: seu preenchimento é uniforme, sem bordas. Essa opção de design compromete a legibilidade da separação visual entre áreas contíguas. No caso de áreas dentro de outras áreas, o rótulo textual da área menor passa a “flutuar” sobre a maior, sem distinção de limites.
Todavia, há cenários legítimos nos quais seria correta e necessária a representação de edificações dentro de uma área maior, geralmente cercada, especialmente em ambientes urbanos complexos (universidades, aeroportos, centros administrativos etc.).
Vale observar que essa limitação não se aplica às áreas verdes (nem às áreas policiais, que são vermelhas no Livemap), que podem coexistir dentro de áreas comuns sem gerar os mesmos conflitos visuais.
Diante disso, proponho que o Waze restabeleça a exibição de bordas visuais, ainda que sutis, para os locais do tipo “área”. Essa simples mudança alinharia melhor o uso desse tipo de local às necessidades reais de mapeamento.

Add Navigard traffic control [ITALY]
Since Januarry 1st, 2026 the highway system in Italy added a new trafic control system called NAVIGARD.
As affected routes are public, would be super usefull to have it as a new alert type in WAZE.Thank you for considering.

Hazard types needed
We have a lot of veld fires either directly alongside the road, or where the smoke from a nearby fire blows across the road. The closest hazard type to this is fog, which is different, because flames on the shoulder are as much a hazard as the smoke causing poor visibility. It would be good to as this as a hazard type.
We also have a lot of pedestrians that (illegally) walk along the shoulders of highways & freeways. It would be good to add this as a hazard type, along with which side of the road they're on.

Due to weather events, the hazard
Due to recent weather events in Portugal, I saw the need that the hazard separador should have an option to inducate that there are branches on the road

Please add a “Avoid this road” or “Lock current route” option during navigation.
Please add a persistent “Avoid this road” or “Lock current route” option during navigation.
If a driver repeatedly deviates from the suggested route, Waze should respect that choice instead of continually re-routing them back onto the same road. Drivers often have local or real-time safety knowledge that the algorithm cannot detect.
This would improve safety, especially on narrow roads or blind corners.

Road closed in uk
We need to be able to inform Waze that the road ahead is closed so it will re route us a different way but not keep trying to take us back that way

Apply search suggestion to search bar
Often when searching for an address, its already suggested in the list. However when a slight modification is needed, such as changing the house number, it is necessary to type in the full adress.
Instead I would like to ask for the functionality of applying the search result to the search bar, for being able to modify the search suggestion on the fly.2 votes -
Speedlimit
The display of the currently permitted speed limit is – apart from the brief flash when it changes – ridiculously small. Instead, I see my current speed, which I can also see on the car's own speedometer. Please make this, and the app as a whole, more user-friendly for glasses wearers. The option to adjust the size of the Speed Limit would be perfect. Then I would use Waze regularly.

Dog Parks
Date: 01/25/2026
I'd like to suggest adding dog parks in the "parks" category. In the past it has been difficult to find dog parks, let alone a fenced in park where I can let my dogs free roam.Adding dog parks as a location would be a fantastic feature for so many travelers!

Would be great if Waze could project your navigation though tunnels when you lose gps.. instead of trying to find your location elsewhere
Would be great if Waze could project your navigation though tunnels when you lose gps.. instead of trying to find your location elsewhere. It knows you entered the tunnel and shown you the exit to the, but when you lose gps signal it can’t find you and you can take wrong exits.. also stating each trip should allow you to choose tolls or not..

Option to display MILE MARKERS on interstates.
Please add an option to display mile markers on the map when traveling interstates. Some locations like rest areas are already defined by mile markers within Waze, and the data is already available on the back end so it shouldn’t be difficult to implement. It could be optional and off by default. But it absolutely helps road safety by being able to accurately report emergencies by way of mile marker designations on open stretches of interstate. Also very useful to professional drivers.

Integrate Waze with Google nest cameras
It would be great to be able to connect to Google Nest cameras/doorbell through Waze while driving. Presently, if my phone alerts to someone at the door I have to pull over to use my phone to converse with them. If that was possible through the screen on the car it would make it much simpler. I know a number of Waze users that would switch their camera doorbell provider if this were possible with the Google product.

Waze could allow users to delete or under their own reports.
Currently, users cannot delete their own reports once they are submitted.
