Route recalculation problem
Útvonal újratervezés esetén gyakran több kilométeres plusz útszakaszt tervez be azért, hogy vissza tudjon fordítani. Jó lenne ha jelezni, hogy minél előbb fordulj vissza. Ezt sok esetben szabályosan meg lehet tenni. pl. kapubeálló stb.

Stop auto refreshing and zooming back in when I am trying to zoom out and see all of the possible routes to my destination...
Stop auto refreshing and zooming back in when I am trying to zoom out and see all of the possible routes to my destination... Going from city to city there are different routes. I must zoom out to look at the path they take. ...but this app zooms back to my car location as soon as I zoom out. It makes picking the best route a blind guess instead of something better.

ask for the direction of the car before calculating the route
every driver had suffered from the common mistake WAZE makes while calculating a new route.
in a two way street WAZE doesn't always know to which way i'm facing, and the entire calculation is based on that direction (because let's face it - you're not so high on U-TURNS, unfortunately).
WHY WON'T YOU ALLOW THE DRIVER ANSWER (if needed) "to which way does your car face?"
it will improve time, calculation and driver's satisfaction!
PLEASE CONSIDER THAT SMALL YET HIGHLY HELPFUL FEATURE.
(you don't have to name it after me, just do it...)1 voteThank you for this suggestion.
Setting the car’s direction when starting the app and navigation is a known matter which will be addressed in the future.
There are many complexities in location tracking which cause this issue and hold us from providing a solution.
It’s currently on the back burner, but definitely a part of the backlog. -

Bicycle navigation and bike routes for waze!!! Please!!
Can you please add bicycle routes to the app and ways to avoid roads that go over a certain speed limit? The option to set your vehicle as a bicycle and find routes like that avoid high speed roads and roads that dont allow bikes conbined with all of the other great functions of the app will be fantastic...
But since you don't have the feature so many bicyclists won't get to navigate with your app and get the same benefits that car drivers have... I really need a navigator for bikers that shows the speed limits of…

avoid bus routes
I'd like to be able to route to avoid getting stuck behind a bus.
Waze could:
1. avoid roads that are bus routes during heavy traffic hours
2. "detect" when a wazer is probably stuck behind a bus -- prompt for "stuck behind a bus? reroute?"
3. see also my "choke buster" mode suggestion3 votes -
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.

Wouldn't it be great to be able to exclude a freeway or particular road from your planned route?
I already summed it up in the title, you kids are the pros.. But I would love to have more options for routes and options to avoid a freeway or major thoroughfare.
Oh and just an irrelevant side note; that American woman's navigation voice, ug I can't listen to it. She sounds like your mean teacher from middle school- but the American guy is great.

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.

Fix the share my drive feature to remember your most recent share contacts. Also highlight the actual route not the straight line from a->b
Restore the share my drive feature that remembers ego you recently shared your drive with. It used to do this but no longer does.
Also, when sharing a drive it should show the actual route the person is taking (like it does for the driver) and not just a straight line from point a to point b. That isn’t helpful at all when trying to meet up with someone or give them a heads up on a path to avoid. Or being able to search their route if someone were to get lost or not make it to their destination.

How do I stop Waze from suggesting a route everyday that I Do Not want to take.
Waze tells me to take this back road everyone I leave my house and I want it to stop!
How can I change this?
It may be 'techinically' the fastest route, but what it doesn't know is that it is a very scary, windy, hilly, one lane back road that people barrel down and I don't ever want to take it.
I thought Waze was smart and would recognize my 'usual' routes, but it has not figured out that I don't like this road.
Ever.

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.

Pick up on construction re-routes.
I just used Waze via Android Auto to take me home. The route it picked had an entry way ramp that was closed. There was road re-route markers BUT Waze first wanted me to turn around and go back to the ramp THAT WAS CLOSED! While following the road markers for the re-route Waze never did pick up on that until the very end of the re-route. Jeez, pay attention to road construction conditions. I guess you get what you pay for, aye?

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.

Motorcycle Routes
I ride a motorcycle a make my own routes with MRA (MyRoute.App). I have used REVER, Harley Rider, Kuviger, and other programs to make motorcycle routes. Up load my designed routes to a GARMIN Zumo GPS. It does a pretty good job, but WAZES has some features that a standalone GPS does not offer. I am looking for a good navigation app like WAZE for my phone that I can upload my routes. Then I follow a specific route. Many of these routes are 100+ mile loop with a stop for a…

Route changes required
I am writing to you from Seaside Studio Apartment THE RED FISH, Apšuciems, Engures pag., LV-3113. Using Waze, our guests drive to us along Egļu Street, but the most convenient and comfortable road would be along the main street of the village, Laivu Street. Please make changes to your system so that our guests can reach us more successfully. Thanks! Sandra

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…

Larger arrows in colour coding for traffic congestion
The colour coding for traffic congestion arrows are hidden when on your route. They should be larger in order to unhide from the pink line representing your route.
This idea is near to https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-waze-suggestion-box/suggestions/3415622-the-traffic-congestion-icons-should-include-an-arr

Indiquer un animal vivant ou mort
Bonjour,
Avec votre récente Mise à jour il n’est désormais plus possible d’indiquer lorsque un animal vivant se trouve sur la route ou aux abords de la route. Option très importante pour éviter un accident.
De plus il n’est plus possible de spécifier lorsque l’ « objet » se trouvant sur la route est un animal mort ..
Ce qui était également très important pour se préparer au choc visuel de voir un animal gisant sans vie sur le bitume.
Est-il possible de remettre en place ces options si précieuses ?
Merci d’avance.
