### Feature Request: Personalized Cost per Minute for Route Selection I would like to suggest a feature that would make Waze's route select
Feature Request: Personalized Cost per Minute for Route Selection
I would like to suggest a feature that would make Waze's route selection much more useful.
Currently, Waze will normally recommend the faster route, even when the time difference is very small and the faster route includes a significant toll.
For example:
- Route A: 42 minutes, no toll
- Route B: 40 minutes, $6 toll
Waze will normally choose Route B because it is faster, even though I am paying $6 just to save 2 minutes.
I don't want to completely disable toll roads, because sometimes paying a toll is absolutely worth it when the time savings are significant.
My suggestion
Add a setting that allows the user to define how much they are willing to pay for each minute saved.
For example:
"I am willing to pay up to $0.50 for each minute saved."
Waze could then use this preference when deciding which route to recommend.
For example:
- Toll: $6
- Time saved: 2 minutes
- Cost per minute saved: $3/minute
Since my limit is $0.50/minute, Waze would recommend the free route.
But if the same $6 toll saves me 20 minutes:
- $6 ÷ 20 minutes = $0.30/minute
Waze would recommend the toll road.
Include fuel costs as well
The calculation could also take fuel consumption and fuel costs into account.
Waze could compare the total additional cost of a route:
Toll + additional fuel cost
against:
Time saved × user's value per minute
This would allow Waze to choose the route that provides the best overall value.
For example:
- Route A: 45 minutes, $0 toll, $3 fuel
- Route B: 35 minutes, $6 toll, $2 fuel
Route B costs an additional $5 but saves 10 minutes.
If the user has set their maximum value at $0.50 per minute, 10 minutes are worth $5, so Waze would know that the faster route is right at the user's limit.
Suggested setting
Maximum amount I am willing to pay per minute saved:
- $0 – Never pay for time savings
- $0.25/minute
- $0.50/minute
- $1/minute
- $2/minute
- Custom amount
This would be much more flexible than simply choosing "Avoid toll roads."
It would allow Waze to understand that I am willing to pay for saving time, but only when the time savings justify the additional cost.
This would prevent situations where I pay several dollars simply to save 2 or 3 minutes, while still allowing me to use toll roads when they provide substantial time savings.

Scooter
Objet : URGENT — Demande d'ajout d'itinéraires adaptés : Scooter 50 cc, Trottinette électrique et EDPM
Bonjour aux équipes de développement,
Je vous contacte pour signaler un manque critique dans les profils de navigation actuels, qui génère d'importants risques de sécurité et de nombreuses infractions pour les utilisateurs de deux-roues et de mobilités douces motorisées.
Aujourd'hui, les profils disponibles ne correspondent plus à la réalité du Code de la route :
-
Pour les Scooters / Cyclomoteurs 50 cc :
- Le mode Voiture envoie sur le périphérique, les voies rapides et les autoroutes (interdit et extrêmement dangereux en 50 cc).
- Le mode Vélo (utilisé par défaut par beaucoup pour éviter les voies rapides) guide le scooter sur des pistes cyclables, des voies vertes ou des voies piétonnes. C'est illégal, dangereux pour les cyclistes et passible de 135 € d'amende.
-
Pour les Trottinettes électriques (EDPM) :
- Le mode Vélo classique envoie parfois sur des départementales à 80 km/h ou des axes interurbains hors agglomération sans piste cyclable, où la circulation des trottinettes est strictly interdite par la loi.
- Le mode Piéton fait emprunter des trottoirs, des zones piétonnes ou des escaliers, ce qui est strictement interdit aux trottinettes électriques sous peine d'amende.
La solution urgente à intégrer :
Mettre à jour vos algorithmes pour créer deux profils de navigation distincts :
- Profil « Scooter / 50 cc » : Voies urbaines uniquement, en excluant les axes à plus de 70 km/h / voies rapides / autoroutes ET en excluant les pistes cyclables / voies vertes.
- Profil « Trottinette électrique / EDPM (25 km/h) » : Itinéraires urbains sécurisés privilégiant les pistes cyclables et rues à 30/50 km/h, en excluant totalement les trottoirs, les voies rapides et les axes interurbains non aménagés.Merci de transmettre cette demande à vos équipes produit et ingénieurs pour mettre enfin vos cartes à jour avec la législation actuelle.
Cordialement.

Rerouting
Rerouting. STOP IT. We pick a route for a reason. Maybe someone is afraid of bridges or tunnels. Maybe there is a fear of heights. Or maybe we know that we want to avoid a bad area of town. We cannot choose a route to do those things with assurance that it will not change. I'm aware that there are good reasons to reroute. But we need an option to automatically accept or deny a route change. It is not safe to stare at a Waze screen waiting for a popup to select NO for a reroute. I do not understand why this has not been solved yet. If we want to look for a new route we always have the option. We do not need your help on some trips. PLEASE. Let me set my default choice for rerouting. A warning is fine but if do not do anything I don't want Waze to do it either!

Average speed calculation during average-speed camera zones
Feature suggestion: Average speed calculation during average-speed camera zones
I think Waze could add a feature that shows the driver's current average speed while driving through an average-speed camera zone.
For example, if the speed limit is 90 km/h and I accidentally drive at 110 km/h for part of the section, Waze could calculate my current average speed and show what speed I need to maintain for the rest of the section to finish with an average of 90 km/h.
It could display something like:
Speed limit: 90 km/h
Current average: 101 km/h
Distance remaining: 3.5 km
Required speed for the remaining distance: 75 km/hThis would make the average-speed camera feature much more useful and help drivers understand their actual average speed throughout the entire controlled section.

Avoid School Zones
"Avoid active School Zones" like the avoid toll roads & ferry option. Due to decreased speed regulations “when children are present”, avoiding school zones could help drivers make better decisions on route choices, seeing as schools start/stop dates vary depending upon your area.

Alert sound indicating upcoming route change while on the phone
I drive long distances and one of the main issues I have is that when I'm on the phone, there is no alert sound to indicate an upcoming route change. Apple maps will ding to force you to look down and realize you have an upcoming route change. It's easy to get distracted on the phone and not be paying close attention to your next change when Waze is silent.

Instant location marking button for issue reporting afterwards

Allert for heavy/high vehicales
suggestion - to add a feature that allerts heavy/high vehicals, from enetering into restricted road. For Ex - road 395 in israel.
Driver that enters this road without knowing about the restriction will go all the way up the road and will have to do a u - turn, get a traffic report or to cause traffic jam at a specific area where the road is narrow that they cant pass through2 votes -

Cuándo viajas en carretera es difícil localizarlos íconos, a veces hay que buscarlos deberían de estar más a la mano más Visuales, ya que te metes en uno y te lleva a otros creo que más íconos y con una señalética diferente te pierdes y a veces ya pasaste por el accidente o la indicación que quieres dar

Rendre le guide vocal un peu plus bavard
Depuis que la nouvelle fonction "moins bavard" est apparu, j'ai mis "normal"
Mais j'ai remarqué que le guidage vocal est moins bavard : j'ai pris la route dans le nord et il y avait une bifurcation (route en type Y) : waze ne m'a rien dit. C'est dangereux : je préférais quand il me disait "prenez légèrement à gauche..." plutôt que ... rien.2 votes -

שינוי או ביטול עצירה
- להוסיף אפשרות ביטול עצירה בכל שלב של הנסיעה והמשך נסיעה אל היעד1
- להוסיף אפשרות החלפת עצירה לעצירה ביעד חדש (גם יעד שנשלח אלי באותו רגע)
- להפוך בין היעד המקורי לבין נקודת העצירה.
- לרשום זמן נסיעה עד לעצירה + זמן נסיעה עד ליעד הסופי כולל העצירה (אולי זמן סופי בסוגריים)

Don't Popup the "Would you like to enable voice control?" during navigation
During navigation a prompt will pop up asking to enable voice control. This covers the entire screen and doesn't go away until interacted with. In many countries it's illegal to touch your phone while driving. This has essentially rendered waze useless for me and I've had to go back to google maps.

reduce the amount of turn warnings. I counted 6 warnings to exit a highway!
"prepare to exit highway in 1.5km"
"...in 800m"
"...in 400m"
"...in 200m"
"...in 100m"
"exit"(going off memory here, so the values may be off)
I suggest reducing the warnings to 3 or 4 :
"prepare to exit in 1km"
"...in 200m"
"...in100m"
"exit now"2 votes
