When searching for a location or place, should have the option to view the address instead of
Would be a nice idea to show the address when searching for a location, instead going to the "show on map" each time to view where the location is...very annoying!

Cache user updates when not connected.
When driving through areas with no cell coverage or internet connection, I would like to be able to make updates. Waze should cache any updates I make using the coordinates of where the update was made, and then upload them as soon as I get connected again.

Add a 1 mile event radius
In large cities 5 mile radius events take too long to cycle back to the close events. And 5 miles extremely far away from your driving route.

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

Add Economy / Energy-efficient routing option (shorter distance vs fastest)
Dear Waze team,
I have been using Waze for many years and it remains my preferred navigation app. However, I would like to suggest a feature that I believe is becoming increasingly important.
Currently Waze always offers the fastest route as the default option. In many cases there is an alternative route that is only 2–3 minutes slower but significantly shorter in distance (sometimes even 30–50% shorter).
For many drivers today – especially those using electric vehicles or plug-in hybrids – minimizing energy consumption can be more important than saving a few minutes. Fuel prices, battery range, and environmental awareness also make distance and efficiency increasingly relevant.
It would therefore be extremely useful to have an “Economy” or “Energy-efficient” routing mode, similar to what some other navigation systems offer. This mode could prioritize shorter distance, fewer accelerations, and overall energy efficiency instead of pure travel time.
As EV adoption grows rapidly, I believe such a feature would be highly appreciated by many Waze users.
Thank you for considering this suggestion and for continuing to improve such a great navigation platform.
Best regards,

Report Pavement Marking conditions
Allow users to report whether the road pavement marking lines are faded, missing, or incorrect. This is especially important at night. Ideally this would also send an aggregated report to the city, county, or state to fix it!

Im Behind a cop Button
Right now, you can report stationary cops, but you can't report a cop that is actively traveling down the highway. What if Waze had an "'i'm behind a cop" button?
Pressing it would bring up a persistent button on your screen. While it's active, Waze uses your location to display a moving cop icon on the map for other drivers. Once you turn off or are no longer behind them, you just tap cancel to end the tracking. It keeps the map updated in real-time without having to constantly drop new pins.2 votes -
Chat
Estimados, todos hemos podido notar que la opción de chat desapareció debido a las recientes actualizaciones. Lo cual desde mi punto de vista como usuario frecuente de su aplicación encuentro que es un error fatal. Waze se diferencia de otras aplicaciones principalmente por su función de poder chatear con otros conductores. Ninguna otra aplicación tiene esa opción tan desarrollada como ustedes. Es una forma eficiente de informar y/o reportar situaciones que muchas veces con los simples iconos generales no es suficiente. Así que expuesta mi sugerencia solicitó que puedan evaluar la opción de habilitar nuevamente los chats en el mapa para garantizar una conducción donde todos los conductores podamos interactuar. Cordiales saludos, Adrian Fuenmayor.

Make the "Complex Intersection" feature to be set at node
Make the "Complex Intersection" feature to be set at node, not a each segment aproaching the "Complex intersection"
This would make the app less cluttered, as only one alert will be needed instead of several, as of now, one alert for every segment approching the interserction.

Hola, soy de Perú, soy taxista y toda la comunidad esta insatisfecha porque ahora ya no se puede comentar las alertas, con los comentarios nos ayudabanos mucho a cualquier problema, pero ahora nos afecta su cambio, necesitamos que solucionen pronto eso.
