Siri Shortcuts for reporting - PLEASE
How about enabling Siri interaction so users can report things hands-free? “Siri, tell Waze to report police” or “Siri, tell Waze to report a stopped vehicle on the shoulder” would be a lot safer and easier while driving than fumbling with the phone or CarPlay UI. Please consider it.

What makes a mobile app development company in Houston a better choice than outsourcing overseas?
Choosing a mobile app development company in Houston over an overseas vendor comes down to better communication, cultural alignment, and long-term accountability. Local development firms operate in the same time zone, which eliminates delays in feedback loops and supports faster iterations — critical for building and refining complex mobile applications.
A Houston-based company also brings a deeper understanding of local market behavior, user preferences, and compliance requirements. Whether you're building an app for retail, healthcare, or logistics, a team rooted in Houston can tailor solutions to meet both industry and regional needs more accurately than a remote team working without…

problem!!!!Missing Section Controll Speed cameras !
In a lot of European countries you have speed-control via section-control, means:
the avgerage speed is measured of a certain distance by taking picture of car when entering and leaving the measuring section.
Unfortunatly currently you can not warn other users of such controls.
On contrary, such controls are only posted as stationary speed-control when entering, which is very misleadingI drive every day Germany swiss...500+ miles track . ( I deliver pockets)
I dont know why but the waze app doesnt sows for you the speed cameras / radars in swiss ,also no option to add this to…3 votes -

Horse-riding
It would be great if you could mark yourself as a slow-moving hazard for other Wazers to be alerted to on their screens as they drive.
Imagine you are riding a horse on a narrow country lane. Considerate drivers slow right down when passing riders on horseback to avoid spooking the horses.
If you could declare yourself a rider on horseback, and had your phone with you then other Waze users could be alerted to your presence well before rounding the very last corner and needing to brake suddenly.
This could reduce accidents between horses and cars.

Pin drop report function
EVERY time I have seen a cop I haven't used the Report feature because I'm a mile away by the time I report. Then the report is inaccurate and useless for everyone else.
Make it so I can drive by the cop and then pull out my phone and place a pin on the location wjere the report should actually be. I understand your worried about people abusing and reporting thing across town so then only allow someone to report and pin drop something within 1/5mile?21 votes -
Waze for Car Play
It would be nice to see Waze integrated into Car Play so it's easier to see while driving instead of looking down at the phone.
4 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, Waze is already supported on CarPlay. Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

UR - add screenshot option
On a daily basis, users report some map issues (lacking precision) that we could not verify just by the UpdateRequest data in WME, or they just do not remember/know the names of the streets/landmarks to help us find and solve the issue. Most of the times, we, the editors, need to search a lot for things that could be indicated inside of Waze, without using third parties for posting photos and screenshots like imgur.com, Facebook, or our personal contact pages/phone numbers/emails.
A button for adding a screenshot could be useful somewhere in the message notification screen.

Update AES location in Toronto
Suggest update all AES location in Grate Toronto Area. There is 50 AES camera set up in GTA area and cause lots of issue. It would be good if Waze able to notify user camera is near by and reduce the speed.

Lockscreen Route View
After using the new maps on iOS 6 I could only come up with a little amount of good new features the maps app has. The most helpful one is that the route you are following is displayed on our lock screen, so you can lock your cellphone to avoid people to use your phone while using the gps to get to a please, and also to save some battery. So adding this feature of showing the route on the iPhone would be a great idea, just by the fact that on the road you want to have…
85 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to May be considered, since we finalized our plans for 2025 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Passenger Assist/Remote Control Feature
I wish passengers could remotely control a driver's Waze app through the Waze app on their own phone.
It would be useful for when it's dangerous for the driver to interact with their phone or the passenger to reach over because the vehicle is on the move. Maybe it could be implemented by requiring both driver and passenger to have been friends on Waze and then comparing whether their spatial vectors are similar to prevent abuse. The initiation should be done from the passenger's Waze app and it should be possible to request remote control at any point of…

User selected audio announcements
It'd be nice to be able to select what audio announcements are made. For example, not getting "candy" audio announcements, or http://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-client-how-can-we-improve-waze-on-your-phone-/suggestions/2359957-privacy-zone-stop-reporting-near-home-work-?ref=title

Disable face proximity sensor.
The face proximity sensor is enabled. Since I place my iPhone in the console of my vehicle, every time I move my hand down to perform an action, the display goes black. I have to gingerly reposition my hand before I can do anything.
I suggest disabling the face proximity sensor while in an operational mode. If necessary, you can enable it right before going to a phone call (if not speakerphone).

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…

integrate with Beeline Moto
there is a great, simple, navigation device for motorbikes called Beeline Moto - https://beeline.co/pages/beeline-moto - it would be awesome if the Waze team would work with them to make Waze the default map/navigation solution for their client, and incorporate a simple way to use the buttons/screen on the device to send reports back while riding (wearing gloves I can't tap the phone screen to report something, but tapping a button on the Beeline Device could step through a reporting wizard quickly and easily)...

Add (2) customizable reporting icons on screen Mobile and Apple CarPlay
Often what we find is that most people are reporting the same thing over and over. For example vehicle stopped on shoulder ahead or police. Having a couple of customizable icon areas on screen would not only streamline this experience but add to the overall safety.
Add (2) customizable reporting icons on screen Mobile and Apple CarPlay / Android auto.
