Distracting "New feature" notification
New app feature notification displays after beginning a trip and requires input to clear. This is not suitable and forces users to touch their phone to get the map back. Beginning a trip on a motorcycle just to have this force you to pull over and remove your gloves is very frustrating and once you acknowledge it the app will display it again on your next trip. Please fix this

vehicle on shoulder
Vehicle on shoulder -- could we have a way to report if it is on the left or right shoulder? In the U.S., the vast majority of the time the vehicle will be reported on the right shoulder. However, occasionally a vehicle is on the left shoulder on a busy, multilane interstate. These are especially important to be aware of, as most drivers don't expect a vehicle there, and if there is a barrier between the two directions of the interstate, the left shoulder can be quite narrow and the vehicle quite close to the leftmost lane of traffic.

Exit number visibility on display
Display exit number for my route; don't wait until I am within a mile to make it large enough to see. Exit number is more helpful than miles-to-go until exit, since GSP often lags.

Proactive Alert for Upcoming Passing Lanes / Climbing Lanes (3rd Lane)
PROPOSAL: Add a proactive voice and visual alert for upcoming passing lanes or climbing lanes (3rd lane) at 1km and 500m (e.g., "Passing lane in 500 meters").
PROBLEM: On single-lane highways, poor road signage combined with driver impatience behind slow vehicles leads to high-risk overtaking. Drivers often execute dangerous passes just meters before a dedicated 3rd lane they didn't know was ahead.
SAFETY IMPACT: Early notification shapes driver behavior. Knowing a safe overtaking opportunity is nearby reduces impatience and prevents severe head-on collisions.

PROPOSTA: Adicionar alerta sonoro e visual de início de terceira faixa / ponto de ultrapassagem a 1 km e 500m.
PROBLEMA: Em rodovias de pista simples, a falta de sinalização e a impaciência fazem motoristas arriscarem ultrapassagens perigosas pouco antes de locais com terceira faixa que eles desconheciam.
IMPACTO NA SEGURANÇA: Avisar com antecedência acalma o motorista, que aguarda o local seguro e evita colisões frontais gravíssimas.ALSO ADD: Early voice alerts for sharp and dangerous curves ahead, especially on single-lane roads with low visibility.

If you can please move the compass location to the top right corner like Google Maps has. When we use Apple CarPlay, the vertical bar hides

Change the reporting icon to the left on driver side of the screen
It would be very helpful if the report icon on my Android auto screen we're on the driver side . I appreciate the voice feature now in place. However, I have to reach to the passenger side of my screen to press the button to start by voice chat. I think it would be much safer if that icon were on the driver side of the screen.
Anyone agree?
I also agree with other post I've seen about switching the speed limit and the time to destination to the opposite side of each other.2 votes -
Bring back Paddington!
Paddington was the best and most enjoyable voice on Waze! Even if we knew the way, we'd still turn Waze on to listen to Paddington talk and direct us. No other voice makes driving as enjoyable as Paddington's did.

Waze not reporting police, vehicles on side of road, etc
I have taken three trips in the last month with at least 300 miles each way. Not even once has Waze alerted me of police, road hazards, etc on any leg of travel. Tried uninstall/reinstall the app to no avail.

Different placement area for Alerts
I am AuDHD. Crazy changes in the app, during navigation, can be severally overwhelming. That is already a Waze factor and separate known bug. But in the meantime, ALL alerts (speedbumps, hazards, police, blockages, ALL OF THEM) appear right on top of the navigation instructions. I have tons crumble to close the alert, often not even being to acknowledge the alert itself, because I have a turn coming up and miss it often enough because I can't get the alert closed. The navigation continues in a small box on the right but per "routine" for AuDHD, the Alternative place to look suddenly, instead of large and clear on the left corner is daunting and overwhelming, not to mention, suddenly becoming secondary to the Alert instead of navigation. Id simply like to see a different set up for alerts, while leaving the actual navigation to continue as the primary.

Lumping "FIRE" into "hazards" is dangerous
A hazard can be a tire or object in the road or any number of things, but when, "Fire" is reported, that is NOT just a hazard but an emergency! Not sure if there is a connection between waze and emergency services but, "FIRE!" (Or person or animal in the road and plenty of other types) should definitely be in its ownreporting category.

Dangerous pop ups
There are pop ups mid journey to advertise the voice reporting that I cannot stop without accepting this feature. This is dangerous for motorcyclists. I can't remove the pop up without stopping, removing gloves, clicking the button, and restarting. Absolutely infuriating every time, and incredibly dangerous (even for car drivers, you are forcing them to interact with the phone whist driving, utterly insane)

🚛 Waze para vehículos de carga y planificador inteligente de entregas Propuesta: Sería excelente que Waze incorporara un modo de navegación
🚛 Waze para vehículos de carga y planificador inteligente de entregas
Propuesta:
Sería excelente que Waze incorporara un modo de navegación especializado para vehículos de carga, diferenciando entre carga liviana, carga pesada, tractocamiones y vehículos o cargas extradimensionales.
El conductor podría crear un perfil de su vehículo ingresando información como peso, altura, ancho, longitud y tipo de carga. Con estos datos, Waze podría calcular rutas teniendo en cuenta restricciones de peso y dimensiones, altura de puentes y túneles, horarios de circulación, pico y placa, vías autorizadas y otras restricciones aplicables al transporte de carga.
Además, sería muy útil incorporar un planificador inteligente de rutas y entregas, sin límite de paradas.
El conductor podría ingresar todas las entregas programadas para su jornada y Waze podría analizar distancias, tráfico en tiempo real, horarios o ventanas de entrega, prioridades y restricciones del vehículo, para determinar el orden más conveniente de las paradas.
No se trataría simplemente de ordenar las entregas de la más cercana a la más lejana, sino de calcular una secuencia eficiente para toda la jornada.
Si durante el recorrido ocurre un accidente, cierre de vía, congestión u otra situación que afecte la planificación inicial, Waze podría recalcular la ruta y reorganizar automáticamente las paradas restantes.
Esta función ayudaría a reducir kilómetros innecesarios, tiempos muertos, desvíos y recorridos repetidos, además de contribuir a una mejor distribución del tráfico de vehículos de carga.
La idea sería que Waze evolucione de:
“La ruta más rápida”
a:
“La ruta adecuada para este vehículo, esta carga y toda la jornada.”
Considero que sería una herramienta de gran utilidad para conductores, empresas de transporte, operadores logísticos y todos los usuarios de las vías.
Gracias por considerar esta propuesta y por continuar desarrollando herramientas que ayuden a mejorar la movilidad.
Cordialmente,
Un usuario y trabajador del sector transporte y logística🚛 Waze para vehículos de carga y planificador inteligente de entregas

Feature request: Display closure expiration date directly in the app
When I encounter a closure in the app, I would like to be able to check its details, especially the expiration date.
For example, if I'm driving near a neighborhood that is inaccessible due to an event, I’d like to quickly check when the roads will reopen. Similarly, as an editor, I want to easily check whether a closure needs to be extended or updated.
A quick and dirty solution could be automatically appending the expiration date to the closure name or description, regardless of whether the editor manually included one.
