Motorcycle Mood
It would be good to have a Motorcycle Mood (guy with a helmet or on a motorcycle). This would help other car Wazers identify motorcyclists and even other motorcycle Wazers find each other.
It would be helpful to also change some of the functions to be more user friendly for motorcycles, typically we ride with the phone in our pocket or on the handlebars.

import addresses
While I have an Android phone, I think that this may be of general usage.
I'd like to see an import/export capability, perhaps to Dropbox, etc.
I have had to reinstall Waze, and I lost my addresses, so it would have been nice to be able to simply import the book back. Also, my wife and I have many addresses in common, so it would have been nice to not have to enter them both.

Keep the app from turning off navigation
If you have the app open in the background, or while the screen is off or locked, navigation can stop if you are stopped for too long. This is beyond frustrating. When I am riding my motorcycle, I listed to the navigation on my bluetooth system. I keep my phone screen locked in my pocket. However, if I am stopped in traffic or at a stop light too soon, then navigation will completely stop. I have to stop, unlock my phone, and then when I open waze, it asks if I want to resume navigation. DO NOT AUTO STOP…

Android Auto improvements - Ease of typing in locations via screen or phone, updating road conditions, etc.
Typing in Locations on the screen of the car (11.6 inch) is cumbersome, and sometimes it switches to the phone then says to type in the car's screen again. Why don't you just allow to use the phone all the time to type?
Providing road updates needs to be better, the small little bubble on the lower right corner is hard to press, maybe a voice activated function would help or place it on the left side and make it bigger?
Screen directions become smaller when a prompt pops up requesting a road incident update. This should not be prioritized…

When the volume bar is dragged to zero, the navigation voice directions still lower the volume of my music. Please change this.
I use the navigation, visually, but not the voice. As I can not find a mute button, I have instead dragged the volume slider all the way to 0.
I then listen to music on my phone in the background through car speakers. Whenever there is a voice navigation queue, although the voice has no volume so I can't here it, waze still lowers the volume of my music for the duration of the direction, as such, my music seems to just lower the volume periodically which is rather annoying.

Crazy driver alert
Love Waze. You need a crazy driver alert. Someone going too fast, weaving, talking on cell phone and not paying attention! You can even take a pic of their license.
Thanks!9 votes -
one button submit police so you don't have to look at phone more than once
Why in the world do you have to click three buttons to submit spotting the police???
That's three times I'm taking my attention off the road. Talk about an accident waiting to happen.
Need one-press submit so you can get your attention back on the road immediately.

Ability to report road closure with voice command
I would like to be able to report road closures without having to touch the phone since I always come across them unexpectedly and never have time to enter the report manually.
After straying from Waze's route I would like to be able to initiate a voice command and say "road closure" and have Waze take that to mean that I strayed from it's route because of a road closure at the point where I left the route.

Alerts Stuck
When starting a new trip, the first alert that appears (speed camera, traffic light camera, railway crossing, etc.) remains fixed on the screen, and after going through this alert, the alert is not deleted, it does not refresh, it does not report a new alert. The first alert that appears stays permanently... it only goes away when starting a new trip... where the first new alert that appears is stuck again.

State by state Laws
When crossing state lines, the app would alert you to state laws regarding cell phone/texting, wipers/headlights, toll transponder reciprocity, etc. We discovered the hard way (toll + fine) that Florida does not accept payment from any other states transponder.

Add Dark Mode Toggle Button on Apple CarPlay Display
On Apple CarPlay, when the vehicle headlights are on, Waze switches to Night Mode. This seems to be independent of the phone settings.
The only way to change this is to use the phone app and change the Map Display/Dark Mode setting to Off. This is not a good solution while operating a vehicle.
This could be fixed by adding a Day/Night (Dark Mode) toggle button on the CarPlay display.

Regular commute notification
Like most of people, I have a regular work schedule, my commute to work is always the same time and route. I do not have to check my navigation app every morning, but when something unusual happens on my route, I think I should be notified.
Most of us are using navigation apps when traveling, or going somewhere for the first time. But most of our driving time is commuting to work. We should be able to program our commuting times and routes in these apps for whatever schedule we have. If we are driving fide days a week from…
