Prolonged route
Sometimes kids fall asleep in the car and parents would prefer prolonging the drive for some extra zzz's
It would be a cool to have a feature so waze adds some extra miles to your trip - maybe even taking into consideration roads with fewer stop signs and red lights.Thanks,
Signed, a parent whose kid fell asleep in the car 10mins from destination 😅1 vote -

Change the algorithm from pushing you back to the original route, when deviating from it, to a new, freshly calculated best option.
Example: today, I took a bit of a detour, and followed a different route to work. Waze kept pushing me back to the originally calculated, regardless of the fact that I am already almost at my destination. (Finally it switched to a new, logical route from that point, and travel time shortened to 10 minutes from 40.)
This is not helpful. Currently, if I want to check if there are better options from the one which is being persistently suggested for a long time despite changed circumstances, I am forced to start a close Waze, open, cancel the popped up…1 vote -
Develop a report that shows the Historical Trend of number of reported incidents per day (time of day) on a specific route

Ergonomie des touches pour valider ou non, un obstacle ou autre sur la route
Pouvez-vous revoir l'ergonomie des touches pour valider ou non, un obstacle ou autre sur la route? Les touches sont trop petites, je dois souvent m'y reprendre à plusieurs fois avant de réussir à valider, et c'est dangereux pour la conduite

Add Completely Custom Routes
I would like the option to draw my own route. I often use Waze, not just to get places I've never been, but to time my arrival to places locally and be alerted to traffic incidents.
Overall I love Waze, but I can't use it much because it wants to "optimize" my route, which often takes me straight through dangerous construction areas (single lane concrete barrier interstate death chutes). We have a ton of construction in my area right now on almost every major road. I don't want to avoid all highways or interstates or even all of…

Showing wrong arrival time and travel time while total miles and route is accurate.
When I was going on a long 15 hour trip, Waze displayed all the details correctly. After few hours, it started to Show wrong arrival time and travel time while total miles and route is accurate.

Personal speed limit for electric cars
As I recently done 800 miles with my zoe, I found that the fastest route is not actual fast.
Generally, best range can be achieved by keeping speed around 56 mph at motorway for an electric car.However, route optimisation has been done based on the top speed of the route unless there is a traffic.
Therefore, if we can have personalised top speed, we might different route.
5 votesGreat news! This feature is already available in Waze. It’s called Personalized ETA.
Personalized ETA setting is turned on in Settings – Navigation – Personalized ETA. Waze would analyze the drives you took in the past, calculate how long it took you to drive sections of the route, and compare this information with Waze’s estimates. Then, it uses this info to personalize your ETA whenever you search a route in Waze.
Important: Waze won’t analyze drives that you delete from your drive history. Deleting drives may disable Waze from personalizing your ETA until you take more drives.

A feature that tells you the weather along your route would be a fantastic addition to Waze!
I think having a feature that tells you what the weather is like on your route would be a huge asset! Is that possible?

Proximity routing for Home/Work
Many people use waze on a daily basis as a way to avoid traffic. We know how to get home or to work, and sometimes our work places have multiple entrances. These entrances don't always trigger waze that you have arrived, so even once I'm in the building, suddenly I hear waze trying to route me through the office hallways from my pocket.....
A new feature called "proximity routing" that the user can enable for their "home/work" locations would take care of this problem. Once the driver gets close, waze would indicate you have arrived and go into sleep mode.…

Map Overview
Please add a map overview so that you can see the entire route. I don't like having to scroll ahead all of the time to see the route. I know that you can see it written out, but I would like to see it on a map.

Rue ou route fermée, et circulation ralentie à cause ramassage poubelle ou nettoyage
Il faut un idéogramme simple pour signaler une route ou une rue fermée ou bloquée, pour une quelconque raison travaux, pompiers, déménagement, etc. Par ailleurs il serait bon aussi d’avoir un idéogramme indiquant que les véhicules de ramassage de poubelles ou de nettoyage ralentissent considérablement la circulation !

Provide verbal traffic reports along your route
Traffic reports should sound like ones provided on the radio. Example, "It's 17 minutes from the Stevenson to 88. There's a disabled vehicle just north of 75th street"

Routing time makes Add a Stop suggestions bigger
When I route to a location then try to route to a restaurant, the suggestion boxes will be smaller, but the route time is added a couple of seconds later and it changes the size of the box. Can we have a fixed box or add the text somewhere where it will not change the size of the box?

I would like to ask for a ability to share a planned route. it is very necessary to be able to evaluate, discuss, mark stops, etc. together.
I would like to ask for a ability to share a planned route.
Not the current position or direction, but the route. When a user plans a trip in several cars - it is very necessary to be able to share the planned route in order to evaluate the plan, make comments, mark stops and discuss.1 vote -
CUSTOM ROUTES AND ALERTS IN APPLE CAR PLAY
I would like to record a custom route to an address and waze considers it in the calculation for the route. Often the routes provided are not the best, there are better routes. Customized routes saved by users who knew the best paths would be the most practical. At the end of the path, the user could save the path with some name. WAZE could put the same notifications that you have on your cell phone in the apple car play, such as prohibited via etc.

When Waze connecting to smart car, the blue route line should be reflected on the video fed to the car’s system.
When car sending video to new car display, sometimes the blue route line disappears from the display. Happens the same time only the turns list display is on the phone and we can’t get the blue line route on the phone either. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!!!

Add a warning at the beginning of a route, if there's an area we should avoid.
Every day I use Waze to drive to work. I could take either one of two basic routes. Waze usually says "let's take..." and then tells me which route to take. That helps me know which way to turn when I pull out of my driveway, but often Waze tries to make me go around the block before I can actually get started. Consequently, every morning there is confusion about what Waze is really trying to tell me. If Waze chose one route over the other because there's an accident or a major traffic jam on the other, why…
