Toll maximum.
My routes that are usually within a few minutes of eachother are USD 2.42, 2.42, and .82 If I could set "pay no more than" 1.50. I would get 1.32 & .82 routes along with a quickest non-toll. This would be very helpful daily avoiding only getting the more expensive marginally quicker routes and while traveling in cities with many tolls.

Malheureusement la mise à jour fait que sur les anciennes voitures comme la mienne jetta 2016 avec un écran un peu plus petit
Malheureusement la mise à jour fait que sur les anciennes voitures comme la mienne qui est une Jetta 2016 avec un écran un peu plus petit j'ai maintenant de la misère lire le nom des sorties c'était beaucoup mieux avant pourquoi ne pas avoir deux versions d'interface une pour les nouveaux écrans qui sont beaucoup plus grands et une pour les anciens qui en plus n'ont pas besoin d'être en haute définition donc les images ne prendront pas beaucoup de place dans le fichier APK

Do not turn the map before you have actually turned.
Currently, when you arrive at a crossroads, the map turns as soon as you stop. If you are not looking at the screen, you will make a mistake. The same thing happens at small roundabouts. The vehicle could almost go straight ahead, but the map turns for no good reason.

ZBE España-Bajas emisiones
Waze debería avisar de las zonas de bajas emisiones de todas las poblaciones de España que la han declarado al igual que hace con la Madrid central. El otro día me multaron en Getafe

ETA Color
I think it would be very useful if Waze could display the ETA in different colors depending on the traffic conditions, similar to what Google Maps does. For example, green for light traffic, amber for moderate traffic, and red for heavy traffic. This would make it easier to quickly understand the driving situation at a glance.

Limite de valor de portagens
Olá,
Venho sugerir ter uma opção do valor máximo de portagens a pagar numa viagem.
Atualmente apenas posso optar por viagem com ou sem portagens.
O que estou a sugerir é num trajecto com portagens de 50 euros (por exemplo) ter opção de portagens mas até 15 euros (exemplo). O Waze criaria o melhor trajeto com portagens mas o custo total não iria além do valor pré definido 15 euros (exemplo).
Obrigado por esta maravilha (Waze)2 votes -
Show directions in vehicle Dashboard
Recently Google Maps had an update so the turn to turn directions and are now shown in Ford Sync 4 vehicle dashboard. Apple Maps also has this feature for years. Can Waze also bring this functionality helping to see in the dash or head up display so we can keep more focused on the road? It would be fantastic if Waze can be on the same level as other navigation apps.

Add road closures when not on a route
Android and Car Play do not let you mark road closures while driving. In large cities, WAZE is often inaccurate because of the number of event road closures that go unreported. Please add a feature to add road closures for non-drivers and off-route drivers in large cities.

Urgent Proposal: Integrate E-Bike and Scooter Riders into the Waze Map for Driver and Rider Safety
The Immediate Safety Need
I am urgently requesting that you integrate electric bicycle and scooter riders into the Waze traffic map. I believe the primary need is not just navigation for the riders themselves, but to increase the visibility of these vehicles in the eyes of the car drivers who use the application.
I see that Light Electric Vehicles (LEVs) – e-scooters and e-bikes – have become an integral part of urban and intercity traffic. They travel on the edge of roads, in bus lanes, and on bike paths close to driving lanes, and they pose a significant risk for accidents, mainly because drivers are often completely unaware of their immediate presence.
The Proposed Solution: Add a "Rider Mode" for Reporting
I propose developing a new "Rider Mode" under 'Vehicle Type,' which would serve two main purposes:
1. Visibility and Alerts for Drivers (The Safety Aspect):
Active Presence Marking: A rider who selects this mode would be marked as an "active Waze user" on the map, similar to a car or motorcycle, but with a unique icon (e.g., a helmet or a scooter).
Automatic Safety Alerts: Waze could warn car drivers who are approaching a rider or a group of riders from behind. The alert could be audible ("Caution: Cyclist ahead") or visual on the screen.
Hazardous Areas: Warnings could be issued to drivers in advance of areas prone to riding (e.g., a road section without a dedicated bike lane, or a popular riding zone).
2. Specific Reporting for Riders (The Community Aspect):
Reporting Road Hazards: Giving riders the option to report specific dangers that threaten them and low-profile vehicles (such as potholes, obstacles in the bike lane, or a blocking car). These reports would also benefit other drivers.
Mutual Safety Cooperation: Riders could report the presence of police/inspectors focusing on LEVs, thereby creating a reciprocal safety community (as Waze currently does for cars).
The Unique Advantage of Waze
Other navigation apps offer cycling routes, but Waze is the only application used by millions of drivers on the roads worldwide. I believe the solution to the LEV safety problem lies in Waze's unique ability to connect heavy vehicle users (cars) with light vehicle users (e-bikes/scooters) on the same platform.
I am confident that adding this feature will not only improve rider safety but will also help drivers be more focused, reduce the element of surprise, and ultimately save lives and reduce the number of traffic accidents.
I urge the Waze development team to prioritize the immediate addition of this critical safety feature.The Immediate Safety Need

Blocked lane options laid out vertically in CarPlay. The options would appear as the actual road position and be more efficient
Would it be possible to lay out the blocked lane options vertically as it would appear on the road in CarPlay rather than horizontally?

Business Address Route to arrive on the right side of the street
For business address, hotels, commercial, etc. especially in busy downtown areas, please have the route always go around the block or whatever is necessary to arrive on the Right side of the street. For example dropping a passenger off in front of the building. Avoids having to do a mid-block u-turn or going around the block.

Police reported ahead vs emergency vehicle ahead
Police reported ahead should be an officer potentially looking for speeders. Police already pulling someone over with lights flashing, should fall under emergency vehicle ahead.

Age limit on appstore
Please lower the age restriction on AppStore, to the same age it was a week ago (or maybe less)
Since you updated it to 17+, I can no longer use your app, due to the restrictions I put on my phone, to filter content.
Thank you!2 votes -

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-

KnightRider
the whole shabang, with KITT as the voice if possible but the car for the map, especially if you could create the illusion of the moving light at the front. This would be iconic for everyone, even more especially as they’re discussing a new series.

Nuevas opciones
Hola equipo de Waze,
Quiero hacerles una sugerencia respecto a las opciones de reporte en carretera. Actualmente, cuando los usuarios queremos señalar la presencia de autoridades, solo aparece la categoría de “policía”, pero en países como Colombia también existen los agentes de tránsito, que cumplen funciones distintas y cuya presencia es igualmente importante para los conductores.Considero que sería muy útil para la comunidad de Waze que se incluya una opción específica llamada “agente de tránsito”, de manera que los usuarios podamos diferenciar entre ambas autoridades. Esto no solo aportaría mayor precisión en la información compartida, sino que también fortalecería la seguridad vial y ayudaría a los conductores a estar mejor informados en carretera.
En Colombia ambos roles son necesarios, pero no significan lo mismo:
Policía: se relaciona más con controles de seguridad y orden público.
Agente de tránsito: está enfocado en la movilidad, infracciones viales y regulación del tráfico.
La posibilidad de diferenciarlos mejoraría la experiencia de los usuarios y la calidad de los reportes. Sería un pequeño cambio con gran impacto positivo en la aplicación.
Muchas gracias por la atención y por seguir mejorando la plataforma día a día.

Reporting App Abuse / False Police Indicators
We have a neighbor who plays “Waze hall monitor” every single afternoon, marking that there’s a police officer in front of his house — even though there is never an officer present. He does this daily just to slow traffic in front of his home.
I’ve tried to report it, but the profile shows only as “anonymous.” When I click on the police icon, the only option is a thumbs-up to confirm it’s there.
Waze should add:
A “Not There” or thumbs-down option to counter false reports.
A Report User option to flag accounts that repeatedly post fake alerts.
This would stop people from abusing Waze and keep alerts reliable for actual drivers.

CarPlay voice reporting optional
Please make voice reporting optional in CarPlay. I’m seeing significantly less reporting since this feature was installed. Plus, I get an error every time press the button and it won’t let me use voice if I wanted to.
