Improve speedometer accuracy
Not sure if this is happening on android. I can check. On my iOS I noticed that the speedometer is 4-5 miles slower than my car speedometer. So I set alert at the speed limit it means I’m already going 5 miles over the limit.
This odd really a bug. I could not find a way to report it as a bug

Suggestion for Integrating Radar Helicopter Information into Waze
Hi,
I would like to suggest a new feature for the Waze app, considering a recent legislative change in Romania. According to the new law, vehicle speed can now be measured from helicopters, and drivers can receive fines or have their licenses suspended as a result.
It would be extremely useful if Waze could integrate information about radar helicopters into the app, using the API from Flightradar24. This way, drivers could be notified in real-time about the presence of radar helicopters, enhancing road safety and helping to avoid unexpected fines.
Thank you for considering this suggestion!

Road permit expiry date
Please add a function to be able to set expiry date for each road permit added to Waze. There are several road permit exist for certain time period, what can lead to pay fine if the user forgets to remove it in time.

GPS availability recheck
When connected to Android Auto while phone's GPS is not turned on, Waze does not recognize, that GPS is turned on later and it is needed to disconnect from Android Auto and connect again. I would appreciate if Waze could somehow re-check GPS availability. Button, touch, time period...
Typical case: GPS is turned off in the phone. It is turned on automatically by the routine when phone detects car's bluetooth or wifi. When Waze starts earlier then GPS is turned on, it is impossible to use it. Thank you.2 votes -
Map should prioritize route ahead on screen
In addition to "Keep map north up" on or off (the only options I see currently), I'd like an option that does an offset to navigation direction (map north up "off") where it tries to fit more of the road ahead on the screen.
I regularly drive curvy roads and it shows me no warnings ahead on the highway when the road just curves left or right straight off the screen. What I'm suggesting would not keep North up, but keep the road ahead up and on-screen more often. This is probably more helpful on highways than in towns, so it seems like it should be an auto-on/off feature for highways or rural areas (outside of towns/cities), maybe when travelling over 30mph.

Walking I know this is a car app but I bet more people will use it for walking too
Dear Waze I think we should make a walking app because many kids have phones and want a quick way to get where there going that’s why we can add a navigation for walking thank you for listening

Suggestion for Adding Stop Signs to Waze Map Editor: Enhancing Safety, Traffic Flow, and User Experience
Dear Waze Development Team,
I know this feature was denied back in 2022 but I would like to suggest adding this feature again due to how important it is. This feature will allow map editors to include stop signs on the Waze map.
Here are a few reasons why:
Enhanced Safety: Drivers will have advanced notice of stop signs, allowing them to prepare to stop safely, which can reduce the risk of accidents at intersections.Improved Traffic Flow: Accurate stop sign information helps drivers make better decisions, contributing to smoother traffic movement and less congestion.
Optimized Route Planning: Knowing where stop signs are can lead to more efficient route calculations, potentially offering faster and more accurate estimated arrival times.
Better User Experience: Providing detailed and precise map information enhances the overall user experience, making Waze even more reliable and user-friendly.
Sincerely,
GreekCaptainDear Waze Development Team,

Eco-drive helper
For eco-drive enthusiasts, you could create a function that shows upcoming speed limits with an adjustable distance. For example, I would like to be informed about speed limits approximately 400 meters in advance, so I can deactivate the cruise control and let the car coast to the correct speed for the upcoming limit. For EVs, this would simultaneously involve regenerative braking, saving me fuel and brake pads. The environment would be cleaner, etc. Adaptive notification would be an advanced solution. It would use the g-sensor to understand my inertia and the speed difference from upcoming speed limits.

Custom Route Colours
I’ve noticed that if you share your current journey with someone then your route line turns green.
This made me realise that this is actually much better than purple for me and think this would be a great option for colour blind users.
Being able to select whatever colour stands out best to you to make your route more clear would be great!

More stop routes
Guys such a basic feature which all of your competitors has is more stop routes with function of dragging them upper or lower by driving sequence. Common I love Waze and lack of this function is pushing me to use competitor app for navigation which I hate to use but I must to.

Alerts - reported x minutes ago
It would be great to have time information on alerts, for example when police is ahead I would prefer how long ago they were reported. It helps a lot to determine if they are still there.

Improve route design to deliver clear direction
So when we start the way, the route displays so complicated with too much colors that confusing me where to focus on. It seems like everything is highlighted. Even with the traffic sign, I didn't realize that it was showing traffic through little red lines outside of the route. I just hope the design of the map to be simple, direct, and clear. Just highlight the path or route that I am going with just one simple line using different solid color that shows if it's on traffic or not. Just like google map!

pouvoir sélectionner la ligne de bus en face de vous pour éviter son trajet si il est impossible de doubler
J’aimerai avoir l’option de sélectionner la ligne de bus que j’ai en face de moi et qui me ralenti et crée des bouchons lors des heures de pointe.
Vous allez me dire que je pourrai doubler mais quand m’est venu cette idée j’étais sur une route à double sens mais à une seule voie de chaque coté et avec 3-4 voitures entre le bus et moi donc en heure de pointe impossible de doubler,
or il y a plusieurs rond points sur cette route, donc je me demande si il n’est pas possible de changer d’itinéraire afin de passer devant le bus pour éviter tous ses arrêts.
cela serait possible en sélectionnant la ligne de bus qui nous pose problème et waze calculera un nouvel itinéraire tout en évitant le plus possible le trajet du bus.J’aimerai avoir l’option de sélectionner la ligne de bus que j’ai en face de moi et qui me ralenti et crée des bouchons lors des heures de pointe.

No cambia modo noche en automático
La aplicación es muy buena, pero desde hace un tiempo no se cambia a modo oscuro ajustes esta en automático y por la noche, lo he probado también por el modo según teléfono y tampoco, en el teléfono si que cambia, pero en el coche no. Y hace dos semanas cuando supero el limite de velocidad lo marca en pantalla pero el sonido dejó de funcionar. Me avisa de radares en casi todos los sitios por voz y en pantalla pero los de la A7 solo por pantalla y no por voz. Repito me gusta esta aplicación.

Option to force re-sync of calendar
I have a planned drive generated from a calendar event, but that calendar event has changed time and Waze doesn't know that. Please add an option to force Waze to re-fetch the calendar events and update planned drives accordingly.

Fix Road Closure selecting
I am a traffic controller and I try to accurately report what roads are closed for the safety of the workers and convenience of others. Most the time I can't even report the street that's closed as the app won't let me select them. It will only do main roads or the roads that are next to the road I want to select. You also have to physically be on the road to select them which is another issue as I can't really leave my post to walk to each road to select them. It's very frustrating. If I could just draw on the screen the roads that are closed life would be so much easier. I would add a photo to show the problem but it doesn't seem to give that option here on feedback. Nor does it show the date ideas were posted. That would also be helpful. 6/24/24
