"Bad smell ahead!"
"Bad smell ahead!"
So I could close the car windows in time OR move the air conditioner to internal circulation mode OR just warn the kids in time.
There are enough polluting factories or just sewage on the way !!!

Have Android auto function like apple car play
When you connect to apple car play you can see the upcoming turns on the phone. When Android auto is connected Waze doesn't let you see anything on the phone and says to do everything on the car display. This is frustrating because there's no way to see past the next upcoming turn for android auto.

Accelerometer data can reveal as yet unreported hazards
The DriveScore app uses phone accelerometer data to provide personal driving style feedback to the owner on harsh breaking, swerving and sharp vehicle movements. But what if many vehicles are behaving the same way at same place on the road? It could well be a strong indicator of an unreported incident and the cars behind should be warned.
If Waze could anonymously combine the same accelerometer data from multiple phones, it could be used to predict the hidden hazard. Astronomers use the same logic to identify the presence of black holes in space by observing the changes in acceleration of…

Change your mapping for Astros day games.
You need to change the route from Minute Maid to Chartres onto the freeway. A change of having cars move west from Minute Maid to alternative routes to freeways will free up traffic especially for day games such as today. The games get over during rush hour traffic and causes huge traffic jams.

Add Appa as a car icon

Bring back the report list on iOS!!
Please bring back the list of reports on iOS!!! I used to use that option all of the time, to decide which route I was going to take or see what I needed to watch out for, before I set out. Now I can only see what's going on when i set a route in the car to leave, which defeats my purpose of analyzing which way to go. I like to do this before i set out. Not the last second as I'm ready to drive. I use waze to travel long distances and I can't get a good…

PLEASE stop routing people on minor roads
Please stop routing people on minor roads like Norwich St in Milwaukee! Our small, quiet road now has tons of traffic that it never had before (I've been here 20 years) and that it wasn't designed for, to the point that I might look into whether we can get speed bumps, especially since most of the cars are going WAY over our 25 mph speed limit. Keep people on the major roads that were designed for more traffic and that have higher speed limits, please.

Add north south west east direction when reporting from iPhone
Add preset when reporting anything to waze via iPhone to show which direction drivers will see the report. Accident. Police etc. This also should show in the text description of the report. Same lane or other can help and this may show on the map. But it's hard to tell exactly what lane it's in. Ie, car stopped on shoulder may look on map like it's northbound lane when it's really south. Add direction of travel preset similar to same lane button.

Feature to Avoid Specific Road
I really do love Waze! You guys are great! But can you PLEASE add an option to avoid specific roads (or steps of a route)? There’s a route that Waze directs me on my commute daily, both ways, that includes 2 roads that are extremely dangerous. I don’t mean difficult intersections or something like that. I mean regularly reported gun violence, car jackings at stop signs/lights, and gang activity. I literally had this map editing option back in the days of printing out mapquest directions… any kind of option would be wonderful! Thank you!

Credit Card Skimmer - incorporate reporting finding a credit card skimmer @ a pump, ATM & set a 24hr alert
As people can report accidents or cars on the side of the roadway, we could report finding skimmers and alert drivers to the possibility of one being at the location within the past 24 hours. The alert would fade away after that period of time if no further alerts from that point are validated.

Alerte limite vitesse
Bonjour,
Merci pour cette application.
Serait-il possible de pouvoir moduler le son de l'alerte sonore de dépassement de la vitesse, car je ne l'entends pas, même quand le son global de Waze est au maximum.
Cela sera d'autant plus utile que les routes françaises passeront prochainement à 80km/h.
Merci.10 votes -
Scale (weight measure) station indication and avoidance
Sometimes you are a little overweight and it would be helpful to know where permanent and temporary weighting stations are.
In my country permanent stations on highways are only active when there is a police car waiting a few kilometers behind the station.
Those police cars are successfuly reported now but it is impossible to plan for it at the start of a navigation.1 vote -
Multi Carburant / Multi Station
Actuellement Waze propose de sélectionner notre carburant ainsi que notre station préféré. mais si l'on a 2 véhicule a carburant différent il est nécessaire de changer systématiquement alors que nous pourrions choisir plusieurs carburants. dans la même optique il serait interessant de pouvoirs choisir plusieurs pompiste (pour selectionner par exemple plusieurs grandes surface) car les pompistes indépendants vende bien plus cher c'est pour cela que j'aime bien l'options de waze quand je cherche de l'essence mais je ne peux pas selectionner par exemple auchan carrefour intermarché pour avoir un plus grand choix. soit j'en choisis qu'un seul soit je dois…

Speed alerts relevant to the vehicle driven
Hi could you make it possible to have a option to choose a van as a vehicle option? By selecting the vehicle as a car when driving a van makes the speed limit alerts incorrect. Thanks

Folder for voices
When you download a voice, it goes to a folder (or even a 2nd app that is a storage/management for voices.) The option to keep voices should happen. I need Gronk back!
There is nothing worse than finding a voice with a tone that isn't obnoxious. When you do, it is gone a week later. Not to mention, when the new featured voices are also annoying people that you don't want talking to you. (I don't want Jay Leno in my car.)

Hazard report on other side
There should be the ability to add hazard on the other side for when we see traffic stopped on the other side that has not been reported yet so that cars heading towards that area can be alert of that problem and have a better chance of avoiding accidents and helping fellow Waze users

fewer touches to get navigation started
it seems to take a lot of clicks (er, touches) to get navigation started.
1) Enter (or speak) address
2) Choose from list of addresses (even if there's only one address)
3) Touch GO
4) Touch GO (again, can be skipped)tough to do if the car is already in motion. Or so I hear. I would never be mucking with my phone or tablet while in motion.

Report Traffic lights in Android Auto
The button to report faulty traffic lights is already in the mobile version of the app. Can we please get it ported over to the Android Auto version? At any point in time at least 30% of South Africa's traffic lights don't work and it would help many users if a few of us could report from our car displays.

Make car (default arrow) icon smaller and look more like an arrow
The arrow icon is too plump and can barely discern the direction it is pointing at a glance. Shape needs to be more defined and apparent, also could be a little smaller.

Battery Saver always on
Option to have battery saver always-on by default. It's a poor user experience to have to set this manually for EVERY journey for those that want to have the battery as high as practitable before exiting the car and/or save their OLED screens from burning. Not everyone uses a charger in the car. And most phones use OLED screens.
'Automatically turn on' is there as an option, but it waits for battery to become low before kicking in, which rather defeats the object of saving battery (it's too late if it's already become low!) and meanwile you risk burning the…
