LInk up with Highways Management
HI Waze. I'm guessing you already have a link up with the Highways Management Team. Do they fail to tell you all the work they're doing? Driving home last night there was a large closure (M11 turn off on the M25) which wasn't on Waze and wasn't on any of the M25 warning boards either. Seems odd that it wasn't on either seeing as it was coned off and clearly involved planned works.

Viewing Alternate Routes
Bring back the ability for users to view alternate routes on their phone. Right now I can only view alternate routes using my car display. Why? I often want to plan my route before getting in the car. Why are you forcing users to be in the vehicle to plan their route?

rotate the map when stopped to know which direction to go
Rotate the map by rotating the phone. Currently there is only the option to rotate the vehicle indicator, it should have the option to rotate the map when pointing the phone in the direction you are going, so it would be easier to know which direction to go when you leave, as you only realize that you are going in the wrong direction after walking a few meters.

Stop using last direction of travel for assumed start direction of new trip
Waze should not make assumptions like the direction my vehicle is facing for a new trip based on the direction it was facing when the last trip completed. 1) I have a driveway so I rarely park on the street in the direction I was last traveling while guided by Waze. 2) When I am going home I do not have my actual address stored in Waze, rather one 5-6 homes before my address so I continue past the address which Waze thinks is my home destination. 3) Another reason Waze should not assume my direction of last travel is…

Waze needs a "Tesla Public Supercharger" charge network category
The tesla DC fast charge / "Supercharger" network is split between chargers that are only for Tesla vehicles and Public chargers that allow any EV to charge. Waze needs a new charge network category of "Tesla Public Supercharger" so people with a non-tesla EV who want to use the Tesla network aren't routed to a Tesla only charger.

the ease does not know that my country here a lot of road toll, which need to Q to pay fees to go through, the ease alwayspop
My idea to make wase better is, set in road toll on the map and drive, and speed limit buzzle sound, prevent overspeed on road and face summon by traffic officer. and a lot of speedtrap camera on high-speed expressway,
set that in also with sound on speech, so that the driver can slow down the vehicle speed,1 vote -

Range Inclusion
I’d like to suggest a feature that could greatly benefit electric vehicle (EV) drivers like myself. It would be extremely helpful if Waze could integrate EV range information into the app to provide more accurate recommendations for nearby charging stations. Additionally, ensuring that the data on available chargers is up-to-date and reliable is crucial, especially with different charging speeds and station availability. This improvement would make Waze an even more valuable tool for EV drivers, enhancing our ability to plan routes effectively and avoid range anxiety.
Thank you for considering this!

Move the Incident Timeline to the Main Navigation Screen + Live Position Indicator
Place the full incident timeline directly on the main navigation screen and add a live vehicle marker showing the user’s exact position on the time-based route bar. This lets drivers instantly understand where they are within the timeline, what hazards are coming next, and how far they are from each report — all without leaving the main map.

Feature Suggestion: Truck & Travel Trailer Routing Mode
Hi Waze team! It would be incredibly helpful to add a dedicated routing option for trucks towing travel trailers. This feature could generate safe routes that account for:
- 🚫 Avoiding sharp or narrow right turns
- 🚧 Identifying height restrictions and bridge clearances
- 🛑 Bypassing roads with trailer or truck limitations
This would go a long way in improving safety and convenience for recreational drivers and towing vehicles. Thanks for considering!11 votes -
Suggestion to Enhance Camera Alert and Speed Warning Features
Subject: Suggestion to Enhance Camera Alert and Speed Warning Features
Dear Waze Team,
I’m reaching out to share a suggestion for an improved alert system in the Waze app, specifically for users who are driving in horizontal phone orientation. This change would make it easier to understand alerts in critical situations, such as approaching speed cameras, and improve overall road safety.
Suggested Features for Improved Camera Alert and Speed Management:
…Dynamic Color-Coded Speed Warning Line When a vehicle is going faster than the speed limit, the navigation line or speedometer could turn red to clearly indicate overspeeding, especially as it2 votes -
I am seeing wrong reports
I am seeing Waze users reporting police as if it’s police trap. But when in fact it’s a police officer already pulled someone over for speeding or to help out. A early suggestion was to put down emergency vehicle on road. So the police trap report won’t be missed labeled and the users won’t disregard the report

New Report Conditions that are South Africa specific
With load shedding the robots (traffic lights) are turned off. This can be a huge hazard at night because you might run through an intersection without realising it. The option to report robots being out (power off, lights out etc) would be a great addition.
Another common issue is beggers who stand in the middle of the road. Once again, in the dark they can be very hard to see.
Another suggest might be taxi stops. In South Africa mini Taxi Busses tend to stop where ever they like. This can at times create an official bus stops. The ability…

“Later”
Please reinstall the “Later” feature to the app. It makes it easier to report traffic issues while driving. For example to report a stalled vehicle on the side of the road it’s easier to save it for “Later” just in case you come up on it quickly or from around a curve. This feature allowed a quick response to report accurately.

Burn it down and start over
Maybe be able to exit current navigation without having to unplug phone from car? Can’t exit from vehicle screen or app. It just keeps talking and giving directions you no longer need and have no ability to input new without closing app, unplugging and starting over. Unsafe and laughable.
Add waypoints?
Satellite imagery?
Can’t believe my friend actually likes this app.

Inserting as spindle and ditch locations, which has a reduction purpose
Consider the possibility of inserting spindle and ditch locations, which has a reduction purpose of the vehicle speeds, however, due to the lack of proper signaling or recklessness of some drivers braking just above the spine, they increase The risk of accidents, with a possibility for users contributes, such as making information on accidents, holes, works, etc., a possible driving very very safe!

Sound alert on/off toggle for re-routing notifications
I am a professional heavy vehicle driver and use Waze constantly. As only one additional stop is allowed, I take numerous side trips off my set designated route. The constant rerouting sound is quite annoying and personally, I dont need to be notified audibly that I am leaving the nominated route and would like the option to turn it off when not needed.

Add (2) customizable reporting icons on screen Mobile and Apple CarPlay
Often what we find is that most people are reporting the same thing over and over. For example vehicle stopped on shoulder ahead or police. Having a couple of customizable icon areas on screen would not only streamline this experience but add to the overall safety.
Add (2) customizable reporting icons on screen Mobile and Apple CarPlay / Android auto.

App Learns About the User
The app decides on the best route depending on the way the user drives (maybe even adding the "which vehicle" the user is driving option) for example: some drivers are less prone to enter a busy street, some drivers are slower to take many right angle turns so in their case a more straight route is faster for them.

Alert for BMW drivers
Dear Waze Development Team,
I hope this message finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to propose a feature enhancement that could potentially improve the user experience and safety measures within your esteemed navigation application.
As an avid user of Waze, I have noticed an opportunity for a unique feature that could contribute to the overall safety and awareness of all drivers on the road. I am suggesting the addition of a feature that provides alerts to users when they are approaching or are in close proximity to a BMW vehicle.
The motivation behind this…
