Waze needs a proper pinch to zoom
Waze needs a proper pinch to zoom/unzoom. It really bugs me so much that I can not do that when it is a basic function on most Sat-Nav's these days.Little Plus and minus symbols are like something from the days of the first navigation retail units.
i'm going to go back to Google Maps for now and check back every few weeks in the hope that it is implemented.
If you are reading this and feel the same way as me, please make yourself heard and maybe we can get this changed.4 votes -
An option to show EV charging stations on map
Waze offers an option to indicate EV charging stations in a given area but, in order to access it you need to move out from your map.
It would be great to have the option to show EV charging stations around you while you are driving rather than having to move to a separate page.

I would really like to see Waze available in CarPlay Split Screen
Now that this functionality has been made available it would be really good to be able to use Waze in Split Screen so that I can see Music and Waze rather than Music and Apple Maps and therefore have to revert back to Full Screen for Waze.
1 voteGreat news! Waze is now available on the CarPlay Dashboard. Thanks for your suggestion.

The waze road map should be horizontal not vertical to allow for the cell phone to chargehorizonal, but it is vertical o
The waze map needs to be horizontal as it once was. When the phone is charging and you are using Waze, the phone can't stand verically due to the charger at the bottom of the phone. So it is difficult to look at the map.

Speeding alert for drivers
Waze should make a sound to alert the driver when they are speeding.
Waze already shows you how fast you are currently driving, and it knows everything about the road you are on, so it should be simple to compare your speed to the listed speed of the road.
Waze has always been about saving time and money for Wazers, and about creating features to attract and keep people on their service. This allows Waze to on-sell quality map data to other businesses, such as Apple. Many other SatNav clients have speeding alerts to save the driver from getting a…
325 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Gray and Red Scale Night Mode Map
Have you thought of creating a night map mode with a red hue (as opposed to blue) as red does not interfere with night vision?

A "heatmap" showing roads you have previously driven on and how often similar to Stravas "Personal Heatmaps"
A map showing roads you have previously driven on and how much, the more used the road is the "hotter" it appears on the map. Then you can boast to your mates about how much of your town/county/country you have driven around!

New color for current route on map that contrasts from the color of the other roads
The route color, especially on Apple Maps, that is light blue is almost the exact same color as all the other roads that are greyish blue. It’s hard to know which road to take sometimes because they are all the same color. I’d love if the route was a different color or stood out more.

View a larger area of the map on phone while driving.
Please give the option to view a larger area of the map while driving. When on auto-zoom it's really close and you cannot see the road at least a few miles ahead.

Needs to show and CALL OUT stop signs and traffic lights as needed for turns.
In addition to showing stop signs and lights, call them out as needed for turns (instead of the distance). Apple Maps actually does a good job with this, a good example to follow.

show public transportation routes
We're in a climate crisis and everybody should drive less when there are alternatives available.
Waze should help with that by suggesting Public Transportation or bicycle routes when selecting a destination, when those routes are viable alternatives (don't bother showing a 3h bus route for a 10 min drive).
This could be similar to Google Maps and use the same data.
Just by showing that there are alternatives, the user might be tempted to try them.
This might be specially useful when driving in cities that have car restrictions, dedicated bus lanes or good bicycle infrastructure that rivals congestion, where…7 votes -
Have more categories for landmarks.
One example is Golf Course (and it would be great if it is shows up as green on the maps)
Another is Construction Zone. Users can identify construction zone in the map editor to warn other user (especially those who are not familiar to the area) of potential heavy vehicles entering and exiting the construction site (a more permanent thing instead of having to report it daily)

Wrong Location on the Map
ATTENTION: Waze! Many delivery drivers get lost because you included Bagong Pagasa in Quezon City, Philippines with Project 6 in Quezon City, Philippines. Bagong Pagasa is a SEPARATE barangay from Project 6. Both have the same place names, in numbers. As a result of your error, for example, drivers who need to go to Road 2 in Project 6 get lost to Road 2 in Bagong Pagasa! This is a big inconvenience for both drivers and residents of Bagong Pagasa. You need to fix this error in your maps now!

Route Preview Option
You select a route, then press the "Route Preview" button. Map view will then zoom to your current location and travel down the selected route as if you were driving. The map pans down the route so that you can see all the things you will be dealing with along the way without having to scroll around the map with your finger. Adding a "preview speed (1x, 2x, 3x, etc)" and a "pause preview" option would be a great addition to this.
