AI-Powered "Wake-Up" Alerts at Bottlenecks & Green Lights to Dissolve Traffic Faster
The Problem:
Traffic jams and traffic lights clear up slowly because of human reaction time. When a light turns green or a bottleneck clears, there is a "domino effect" delay as each driver takes a few seconds to notice and move. This significantly reduces the number of cars that manage to pass through during a green light.The Solution:
Waze can detect the exact point where a bottleneck dissolves or when a traffic light turns green based on real-time data from the leading vehicles.Once this "release point" is identified, Waze should send a subtle, prompt audio/visual alert (like a gentle chime or a "Traffic is moving - stay close!" notification) strictly to the drivers at the front of the queue.
The Impact:
Even if only 50% of the drivers respond to this alert and minimize the gap with the vehicle ahead, it will dramatically speed up the traffic release rate. This crowd-sourced coordination will reduce the overall duration of bottlenecks and maximize the number of cars passing through every green light cycle.Proposed Pilot Program:
To test the effectiveness of this feature, Waze could launch a targeted pilot program at a few notorious intersections or well-known bottleneck locations with chronic traffic. By measuring queue lengths and wait times before and after implementing the alerts at these specific locations, Waze can scientifically prove the improvement in traffic flow before a global rollout.The Problem:

Multi Waypoint Route Planning
Provide multi waypoint route planning, allowing shaping points for tailoring routes, and a library to store routes.
This could be achieved online via Google Maps and synch to Waze app, perhaps under a Subscription model.
Supporting export in GPX format would be a nice value add in support of this too.2 votes -

Customizable reporting shortcuts on the main screen
Waze should allow users to add two or three customizable reporting shortcuts to the main navigation screen.
For example, reporting a stopped vehicle currently requires several taps through different menus. While doing this, drivers must look at the screen instead of the road, which can be distracting and potentially dangerous.
Most users regularly use only a few of the available reporting options. Customizable one-tap shortcuts would make it possible to report common hazards much faster and return full attention to the road immediately.

Navigation interruption
When receiving a Botim or WhatsApp call while driving, Waze gets pushed to the background, interrupting map navigation. To prevent this, please add support for Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode. Additionally, if you re-open Waze after a call, it forces you to re-search the destination; the app should instead save the active trip and resume navigation automatically.
Suggested Fixes:
* Implement Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode so the map remains visible during calls.
* Ensure active navigation state is preserved so trips don't need to be restarted manually.2 votes -
Allow Waze users to correct sightings of "mobile police cameras" when it fact the devices are "license plate readers".
My town has many "license plate readers" that allow police to locate stolen cars or to respond to Amber and Silver alerts. Too many people report them as "mobile police cameras". These devices are not "mobile" and they are not intended to monitor speed. They are intended to locate bad actors. In fact, Waze should not identify these plate readers because they might help bad actors escape detection.

Have Red Light Camera(s) Take Over Traffic Lights
I've seen several users complaining about red light camera(s) not being mapped at many intersections, even though it is mapped (but can only be one-way direction (capturing rear license plates)), it's the traffic lights that are defeating the visibility of the red light camera. Basically, they have the impression that it's a new camera installed, when it's been there for months or years.
I believe users are more used to seeing red light camera(s) displayed on the map, whether it alerts or not when approaching one (like it was before the traffic light rollout), because it also has a traffic light icon inside the camera, making it recognizable as a TL intersection. See https://imgur.com/a/gUWKtiZ
This is NOT intended to mislead anyone (even senior editors). It's about some things that users were more used to when glancing at the screen to see where it's located (even if it doesn't alert them for rear license plates), but Waze should continue to say "At/After the light" if turning.

התראת רכב כבד בשולי הדרך
חשוב מאוד וודאי ימנע תאונות! ההתראה הידועה על רכב בשולי הכביש מופיעה הרבה פעמים ונהגים התרגלו אליה וכשמדובר ברכב כבד הסכנה לתאונה עולה משמעותית במיוחד גם כשהרכב הכבד תופס את כל השול, אני מציע להוסיף התראה מיוחדת לכך ולסייע מאוד בהפחתת תאונות אולי גם אפשרות של ״רכב כבד״ אחרי לחיצה על ״רכב בשול הדרך״.

Indicateur de vitesse moyenne dans les zones de contrôle (radar tronçon)
Lors de l'entrée dans une zone de contrôle tronçon, Waze signale le début du contrôle, mais il est difficile de savoir ensuite si sa vitesse moyenne reste sous la limite autorisée.
Il serait utile d'afficher, jusqu'à la fin du tronçon, la vitesse moyenne calculée en temps réel, avec un indicateur visuel (vert/orange/rouge) et, en option, une alerte sonore lorsque la vitesse moyenne dépasse la limite.
Cette fonctionnalité aiderait les conducteurs à respecter la limitation de vitesse tout au long du contrôle, en favorisant une conduite plus sereine et plus sûre.

Augmenter grandement la taille des caractères vitesse et panneaux et alertes
onjour,
La taille des caractères et des panneaux à agrandir. Les affichages sont trop petit sur les écrans et cela quelque soit la taille y compris gps moto et les téléphones.
Voir une alerte accident ou vitesse pose problème et plus encore sur un téléphone ou un gps moto. Même les panneaux sont beaucoup trop petit.
A partir de 40 ans la vue ne fait que baisser à vous d’adapter l’ergonomie visuelle de votre super application. Multiplier au moins par 4 la taille des caractères de la vitesse et des alertes serait raisonnable.
Merci à vous pour l’évolution.2 votes -
Where did keep on top during calls went?
Where is it? it used to be under Settings -> General. When a phone call arrives, Waze disappears, it makes the driver have to fiddle with their phone, which is illegal and very dangerous. Where did this option go on iOS 26?
Please bring this back, this is kinda urgent tbh, given the risk involved.2 votes -
New tag
I would like to propose a new tag to go with the police category. With the proliferation of license plate readers, I think there should be a new, separate tag for those. In my area, numerous people are tagging the readers as mobile police cameras, which is incorrect. I think it would benefit all users to add this tag.

Afficher le coût estimé d'un plein et du trajet selon le véhicule
Je souhaiterais proposer l'ajout de la capacité maximale du réservoir dans les données du véhicule.
En renseignant cette information, Waze pourrait afficher, lors de la consultation des stations-service, non seulement le prix du carburant au litre, mais également le coût estimé d'un plein complet pour le véhicule concerné.
Exemple :
- Capacité du réservoir : 50 litres ;
- Prix du SP95-E10 : 1,65 €/L ;
- Coût estimé d'un plein complet : 82,50 €.
Pour les véhicules électriques, Waze pourrait également estimer le coût d'une recharge dans les bornes et stations de recharge, notamment sur les aires d'autoroute.
Par ailleurs, il serait intéressant d'afficher dans les suggestions d'itinéraires une estimation du coût énergétique du trajet (carburant ou électricité), en complément du coût des péages déjà affiché.
Exemple :
- Itinéraire A : Péages 12 € + carburant estimé 18 € ;
- Itinéraire B : Sans péage + carburant estimé 23 €.
Cela permettrait aux utilisateurs de comparer plus facilement les différents itinéraires en fonction de leur coût total et de mieux anticiper leur budget de déplacement.
Cette fonctionnalité serait utile aussi bien pour les véhicules thermiques qu'électriques.

Abandoned Car Silent Alert
Be good to be able to mark an abandoned car - currently can only use the orange "car stopped in shoulder". If a car is stopped with hazard lights on a visual and audible alert is appropriate as people may be working on it/around the vehicle. If the vehicle is abandoned though a warning is not necessary - a lot of people in my area use Waze and they slam on the brakes because ALL their alerts are on by default and they don't switch them off. This is totally unnecessary and dangerous on highways when the vehicle has been abandoned. An option for a grey coloured map pin/icon for "abandoned" with only a visual alert is needed.
