User selected audio announcements
It'd be nice to be able to select what audio announcements are made. For example, not getting "candy" audio announcements, or http://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-client-how-can-we-improve-waze-on-your-phone-/suggestions/2359957-privacy-zone-stop-reporting-near-home-work-?ref=title

Lockscreen Route View
After using the new maps on iOS 6 I could only come up with a little amount of good new features the maps app has. The most helpful one is that the route you are following is displayed on our lock screen, so you can lock your cellphone to avoid people to use your phone while using the gps to get to a please, and also to save some battery. So adding this feature of showing the route on the iPhone would be a great idea, just by the fact that on the road you want to have…
86 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to May be considered, since we finalized our plans for 2025 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

What makes a mobile app development company in Houston a better choice than outsourcing overseas?
Choosing a mobile app development company in Houston over an overseas vendor comes down to better communication, cultural alignment, and long-term accountability. Local development firms operate in the same time zone, which eliminates delays in feedback loops and supports faster iterations — critical for building and refining complex mobile applications.
A Houston-based company also brings a deeper understanding of local market behavior, user preferences, and compliance requirements. Whether you're building an app for retail, healthcare, or logistics, a team rooted in Houston can tailor solutions to meet both industry and regional needs more accurately than a remote team working without…

In Landscape mode, e.g. Speed camera alerts will block the speed indicator
In Landscape mode, either move the speed indicator or change the alert. When an alert pops up, the speed indicator gets blocked.

LIVE Number plate scanner, last known position of police vehicles.
A button to enable the camera to scan and track known number plates of police vehicles (possibly other wazers).
This can have a refresh time of say 10 sec and shows the next known position or simulate the police vehicle movement on the map. It just disappears when it loses the tracking but notifies users of recent police presence if you enter a road that had police vehicle on it in the last minute or so or within a certain distance.

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.

Disable face proximity sensor.
The face proximity sensor is enabled. Since I place my iPhone in the console of my vehicle, every time I move my hand down to perform an action, the display goes black. I have to gingerly reposition my hand before I can do anything.
I suggest disabling the face proximity sensor while in an operational mode. If necessary, you can enable it right before going to a phone call (if not speakerphone).
iPhone 4, iOS 6.0.1

I want voice control in other languages (Swedish for me).
I want voice control in other languages (Swedish for me). There are laws in other countries that you can not tap their mobile phones while driving. And come to Sweden too.

integrate with Beeline Moto
there is a great, simple, navigation device for motorbikes called Beeline Moto - https://beeline.co/pages/beeline-moto - it would be awesome if the Waze team would work with them to make Waze the default map/navigation solution for their client, and incorporate a simple way to use the buttons/screen on the device to send reports back while riding (wearing gloves I can't tap the phone screen to report something, but tapping a button on the Beeline Device could step through a reporting wizard quickly and easily)...

Passenger Assist/Remote Control Feature
I wish passengers could remotely control a driver's Waze app through the Waze app on their own phone.
It would be useful for when it's dangerous for the driver to interact with their phone or the passenger to reach over because the vehicle is on the move. Maybe it could be implemented by requiring both driver and passenger to have been friends on Waze and then comparing whether their spatial vectors are similar to prevent abuse. The initiation should be done from the passenger's Waze app and it should be possible to request remote control at any point of…

Enhanced Visual Warning for Speed and Red-Light Cameras
I would like to propose an additional visual alert system for speed and red-light cameras within Waze. The idea is to introduce a transparent red overlay that flashes on the screen as drivers approach a camera location.
This feature would serve as a strong visual cue, especially for users who may not always be actively looking at their GPS display or listening to audio directions. The flashing overlay would draw immediate attention and help ensure drivers are more aware of upcoming enforcement zones.
To keep the experience user-friendly and adaptable, I recommend that this alert be offered as an…

Show address in final navigation screen when approaching.
I LOVE that Waze now accesses my Apple calendar to see my appointments & the time. SO very helpful, as Waze is my go to map app (I am an on the road sales rep). But I have to exit Waze & return to my calendar entry to see the exact street address I am looking for. The final navigation screen will have the name & phone number of the person I'm trying to visit, but not the address, the most important part. Really annoying!

Reports Ahead
The Reports Ahed list is now filled with reports of Speed Camera Ahead, making it almost impossible to see the actually important information (traffic, lane blocked, etc.). I have turned OFF ALL of the camera selections and the list is stilll filled with USELESS information.

Suggest update all AES location in Grate Toronto Area. There is 50 AES camera set up in GTA area and cause lots of issue. It would be good if Waze able to notify user camera is near by and reduce the speed.

Carplay settings
It would be nice to have access to the waze settings though apple carplay so that I can turn toll roads or other features on and off quickly as opposed to having use the phone app. Google already has this but I prefer using Waze so please work on this.

use Iphone screen to display speedometer/speed limit when in carpay mode
When in apple carplay mode, use the iphone screen to display the speedometer/speedlimit in full screen. Pehaps as a third tab next to the directions, notifications tab. With the phone in a cradle close to the steering wheel this avoids having to glance to the far right of the main car screen to see the actual speed limit.
