  1. Going home options

    When the app first starts, it always ask if I'm going home. Many times I am, but I say no, only because I do NOT want turn-by-turn instructions for a route I know by heart and drive every day. The app should have the option to only show ETA and maybe suggest a new route for the traffic on my normal route home.

  2. cumulate roundabouts

    when there is a series of roundabouts where you have a long straight route, the voice guidance quickly becomes annoying, as it repeats the same thing over and over again.

    take this example (i have recorded the route and waze behaviour) https://youtu.be/80v8nIPkqQ0

    you hear the voice guidance repeating itself all over again

    instead when i have a clearly straight route interrupted by roundabouts, please just tell me "roundabout, slow down". that's the most important thing a driver need to listen to when they approach a roundabout that does not change their course.

    stop repeating to me that i should…

  3. Fix waze routing

    I'm not sure what you have done to waze lately but I just tried to route from Waterbury VT to Bridgewater NJ and got only 1 options. 87 to 91 to 84. I drive this a lot and its a horrible route and the slowest. Waze always have given me 3 peoples from here to NJ. Today not the case. Google did perfect. Why did you break some thing that works? I will likely not use waze for routing given a few other very poor routes.

  4. Waze LiveMap to device for navigation

    Can we map out a route online using the website, then send it to your phone for navigation before you leave?

    Would be useful especially when routing errands and have to plan multiple stops.

  5. Mixed routing strategy (Fastest, shortest, economical,... and others to come)

    The "best" route is often a matter of personnal compromise.
    It's often a mix of fastest, shortest, and more and more road cost / fuel economy.
    I suggest we add a "Mixed" routing strategy, that could follow our preferences.

    We could think of a system starting with 100 points that the user would share among the different "strategies" of routing.

    For instance, one could set :
    * Fastest : 50 points
    * Shortest : 30 points
    * Economy : 20 points.

    That has the big advantage to allow other routing strategy for future.
    * Less traffic lights : 5 points…

    Hi, it would be fine if I could decide when waze should come with alternative route.

    Now if there is traffic jam it comes with alternative even if it would 5 minutes difference. A setting in which I define when to calculate an alternative route, like time to > 30min, would great.

    Kind regards

  8. Smarter Auto-Zoom!

    How about a additional Auto-zoom mode that always keeps the zoom to a level that you can see the whole remaining route? And it would be really smart if this smart auto-zoom would zoom closer at any maneuver point so you know where to go in detail and go back to route-focus after the maneuver.

  10. Your route calculation does not show the optimal way. I’m using Wase since years and noticed a big worsening in the accuracy.

  11. Make it more convenient to start the route with less number of buttons clicked

    When we click on the address link from external source, waze should only have one step before beginning our trip i.e. confirm address. It is so inconvenient to click so many buttons to start our route which is stopping me to use this app because it is making my commercial driving slow. Please have this fixed.

  13. Increase the size of time to go and distance to go at bottom of screen when on a route

    When traveling on a route, it would be helpful to have the time to go and distance to go that is at the bottom of the screen in a larger, more easily visible format.

  16. Pause sharing instead of canceling

    I like being able to share my room with friends, but I found if I stop somewhere it cancels it. I shared a route with a friend the other day and stopped at a store and when they tried to follow me the request was denied – it was canceled. There must be some way to pause a route when someone is making a temporary stop.

    I wish we had an option to enable/disable the "alternate routes" when choosing saved locations! I always only want the fastest route! If I want an alternate route, let me choose it manually.

  19. Add rerouting on a route that has slowed down are block by a hazard.

    Is there a way to add a button and that when on a current route, you would be warned that the way is slowing down then it will automatically ask you if you want to reroute to avoid the congestion or accident.

    On reporting make it less choices so it can be reported quicker with one key touch to keep drivers focused on the road.

    Add a way to make a flag so you can report that issue later when your at a stop light or at the end your trip.

    PS good job on program overall…
