Stop non-local people from editing
I live in a city and it seems that anyone editing is not from the city and does not understand closures or what street signs are up. Instead I see messages from editors in the comments to people saying for pictures of signs or proof of closure. If they were local they would see the newspapers showing how their a block party, or understand where the city posts permits for road closures. Instead you see people from a neighboring state asking for proof, instead of residents being granted access to edit where they know when roads are closed or why…

Stop Drive button when pressing back button in android
I hope this email finds you well. As an avid user of the Waze app, I appreciate the features it offers for navigation and traffic updates. However, I'd like to suggest an improvement to the user interface that could make the navigation experience even more seamless.
When using Waze in "explore mode," there is no blue route line, which is great for browsing the map and selecting destinations. However, when a route is started and the app switches to "navigation mode," pressing the Android OS "arrow back" button only offers two options: "cancel" or "shutdown". While I understand there are…

Integrate with retail location finders
Can you integrate with web or native app location finders to help add a stop or diversion en route? For instance integrate with the Starbucks location finder to indicate where the nearest Starbucks is on my current route (ahead of me, not behind), so I can divert there. Could be Home Depot, Movie Theater, etc. Perhaps look for installed apps on setup?

Readd the autozoom disable funtion
The autozoom disable function was removed in the last update. I am very disappointed with this. I never used autozoom and I am not a fan. I like to stay zoomed out so now I am fighting with the app every few minutes. Please return this function. I am not the type to makes threats to stop using something but I researching other navigation apps to avoid doing this. Or at least let me set the zoom function (how far to zoom in and out and at what speeds). I could set it all consistently if I don't want it…
3 votesGreat news! The option to disable the auto zoom is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

When using Apple car play there is no option to add a stop with the closest available location on route
When using Apple car play there is no option to add a stop using the closest available location on your current route. It only shows by mileage but that can sometimes backtrack you.

Emergency vehicle
Clicking/ reporting for an emergency vehicle should be for stopped emergency vehicles and accidents.
It drives me crazy when people are clicking emergency vehicle just because they are passing by which is NOT helpful. This is apparently unclear. Would you kindly make a post that populates with the next update to inform wazers not to click for non-stopped emergency vehicles?5 votes -
Feature Suggestion: “Group Ride / Buddy Mode” for Safer and More Connected Travel
To the Waze Team,
Good day! I am a longtime Waze user, and I truly appreciate how your app continues to innovate in keeping drivers safe and informed. I would like to suggest a new feature that I believe would greatly improve the experience of many users, especially those who travel together.
I would like to propose a “Group Ride Mode” or “Buddy Mode” where users traveling as a group such as friends, families, and motorcycle convoys can see each other in real time directly on the Waze map. Many riders and drivers often travel together, and having this integrated…

customise sound
The current overspeed alert is too short. It needs to be multiple beeps like my Garmin. It would be great to have all alerts and sounds fully customisable.

Construction Closure: Intersections
I was thinking about how we can close roads on WME. It would be nice to be able to close multiple roads or just an intersection by drawing something like a junction box and then being able to set parameters. Sometimes Just an intersection will be closed for construction but you can still drive up to the construction to get to your destination. If it could just close within the box-

speed camera alert closer to the speed camera
the alert is happening 400m from the camera, sometimes there is an intersection before the camera that you may stop at and by the time you get going again you may of forgotten about the camera. listening to the news or music may distract from the warning, when you finally get that 400m down the road. a second alert 50m from the camera, speeding or not, would be greatly appreciated.

Give way and stop sign warnings
Like how rail way crossings and it now warns you about when the speed limit reduces, have this for give way and stop signs. Especially on the back roads some signage isn’t the greatest and even when it is nice to have a warning of a give way sign when your doing 60mph
