  1. Use front-facing camera to do things (if available)

    I position my iPhone in a cradle that attaches to the windscreen, and I think that I'm not alone. This camera has a pretty unobstructed view of the road ahead, which Waze could use to produce awesomeness! I can immediately think of a number of cool things that you could do with this, depending on how much image processing you want to do. Here are some user stories for you :)

  2. user provided layout themes

    There are various requests for features of what Waze should/should not display on screen. It would be great if users could instead of just choosing a style, actually choose a (or create) a layout that another user has selected.

    Best option would be to provide the ablity to give shapes, and areas that can contain text. Eg.
    - Current speed (can then increase/decrease the speed display)
    - Average wazer speed on the current segment (so the potential speed limits could be shown)
    - Current road name
    - Text/images for popups
    - Destination ETA
    - Destination time
    - Destination name
    -…

    When no destination is set and Waze map is not selected, the footer only displays the Waze icon and leaves a large empty area -> additional minimized information can be added: road incident or current speed/overspeed information

    A mode for new driver/learner, where restrictions (typically not allowed on major highways, or speeds above 100kph. When this mode is on the route provided avoids these. Much like avoid Toll.

  5. Adding new Report Icons for dealing with "Nanny State" Issues...

    Hi,

    I have been running a community petition on change.org about requesting local governments for more leniency on some of the more "Nanny State" issues we encounter here in Australia. Such as dogs off leash in parks when the parks are empty or outside hours...

    As part of this initiative, the community has now decided that we would also go with an additional new plan B, which is to find out the feasibility of having new Report Icons added to Waze so we can handle those issues please ?

    The icons required would be as following, with the very first…

  6. Predictive Coasting Speed Alert / Vorausschauende Roll-Geschwindigkeitswarnung

    I suggest adding a predictive driving option to Waze that helps drivers adjust their speed more smoothly before reaching reduced speed zones.
    Currently, Waze shows the reduced speed limit exactly when you reach the zone, which often forces drivers to brake actively. My proposal is that Waze should calculate the optimal point at which I should release the accelerator, allowing the car to coast into the reduced speed limit without using the brakes.
    The system should display an alert such as “Reduce speed to 50 km/h in 300 m” at the right moment for coasting.Additionally, the app could optionally collect…

  7. DRIVER SPEED LIMITATION INPUT FOR ITINERARY CALCULATIONS

    I think it would be a more than good idea to have the option of telling WAZE that one doesn't want to drive faster than 90km/h.
    For instance, i drive a camping car, which hardly reaches 100km/h and would like Waze to calculate itineraries taking this into account. Can that be fastly implemented ?

  9. Traffic lanes speed.

    It would be useful to add this feature back to the Waze app because the speed of traffic segments is useful, so that we drivers can understand how intense the traffic is on certain sections of the road. But it should be estimated in both Km and in miles.

  10. Help calculate ETA based on passive speeds of fellow Wazers

    I'm not sure if it's already exists or not... But I'm wondering how calculations are done in terms of "estimated times of arrival"?

    Is Waze passively tracking and analyzing the speed data from other Wazers while driving?

    For instance, if everyone on the highway is doing 75 or 80 miles an hour ahead of you, Waze should be able to use those analytics to create a more accurate ETA.

    Instead, I often find myself driving and arriving sooner than the ETA because traffic dictates driving a bit faster so as not to be unsafe.

    Additionally, this could also share an…

  11. Speed Trap Advisory Pop-Up

    I would like to see a pop up up advisory if I drive into a town/village where the entire town is a speed trap & police use LIDAR in random locations for traffic enforcement. This would give the user ample warning as this type of radar is difficult to detect. By the time you have visual on a police car, you’re already nabbed.

  13. Send weekly reports including speed behavior.

    It would help to identify driver's behavior. Waze could even be used in court. And it is important for you to be aware of the times you drive over the speed limits. Things look different when you see it in a summary.

  14. Bring back "wrong speed limit" report

    I'm using Apple CarPlay if that changes anything.

    Some years ago, I could report "wrong speed limit". Now there is no report button like this and it causes the entire reporting worflow much longer: I report a general issue, then someone finds it, asks me what the issue is about (and I don't always remember if it was about the limit), and then I reply and they fix it. It could be just 1 click and then someone fixes it - much faster!

  15. Add alert/icon for police helicopters with speed radar in Romania

    I propose adding a specific alert or icon for police helicopters equipped with speed radar in Romania. These helicopters regularly monitor traffic on highways and national roads, similar to mobile speed radars.

    Benefits:

    Alerts drivers to maintain safe speeds, reducing accidents and speeding violations.

    The icon could be a helicopter with a radar symbol and function like the current mobile radar notifications.

    Provides real-time, relevant information to drivers without violating any laws.

    This feature would enhance road safety and improve the relevance of Waze for drivers in Romania.

  17. Speed icon to drag and drop option.

    Hello dear developers and team.
    Since last update the "Speed" icon sticked to the center-bottom and very often it layered over the streets titles and the routes.
    I think it would be great to have an option to choose where to place that icon on the screen, for example left-bottom, left-top and etc... Thank you in advance

  20. The vehicle speed set to 0 and map display jumps on GPS blinds spots

    The Speed Problem:
    I noticed that when the car enters a cave my speed per hour gets reset back to 0 and when I leave the cave it goes back.

    Plus - The Map Display Problem:
    When I get inside the cave the map display feature of the car/arrow icon stops working:
    (the car/arrow icon would stop moving and then jump back to the end of the cave when I leave).

    I believe that the map feature and speed is working by gps to locate the vehicle location and time to calculate the speed which makes the car km/h /…
