Please bring the "Boyband" voice back. And have a reminder to move over if there is a cop on the side of the road that stopped somebody.

Add a sound mode that just announces turns
Too many “Car stopped in .5 miles”. It interrupts way too often. I turn off sounds and then miss a turn

Restart After Stop consistently direct me to turn the wrong way
For some reason, even though I was using waze and for instance, stopped at a gas station or other stop, when I turn waze back on and program my next destination, it consistently tells me to turn the wrong way (right when I need to go left, left when I need to go right, etc). Can't WAZE store my exact orientation and location at the end of each route and know exactly which way I am facing when I turned the car off, so that it will use that as a staring point the next time I select a destination…

permanent editor mood
I think you should create a level one editor mood that is permanent for inactive, former, or periodic editors. I enjoyed having the robot even after I stopped editing but because Waze changed the way those levels are granted and kept, I've been demoted for inactivity and stripped of the robot. So, Waze keeps the 5,000+ edits I did over the years but you gave me and any other editor the indignity of stripping us of a mood, something that costs them nothing. Rather than give access to the high-value moods to editors that have lost favor of Waze, why…

Thanks/Not There
Instead of having the alert (example “Vehicle Stopped) and then the two options (Thanks / Not There)… you should have Thanks on top, the alert in the middle, and not there on the bottom. This will reduce accidental misreporting. We’re trying to drive and can’t stare at the screen. Help us help you. 😀

Obsolete or erroneous report canceleation
Toulouse, France : at regular time traffic is displayed as jumped but sometimes it is not so it would be a good idea to give client the possibility to say "traffic is light". Another example concern some events obsolete like a car stopped on road that is no more here ...
Thank you for your very good job !

x Prediction Feature
A prediction feature. Example: Around 9:00 every Friday in the past 2 months traffic has been stopped on a stretch of road. Waze could put out an alert that says "Based on the past month's traffic use this route could be slow" even if no one has reported. Especially helpfully for being aware of authorities who tend to monitor traffic in the same locations.

integration with the ENGIE app with more travel statistics
Good afternoon . I have used the waze a long time already. . And I love it. I do not travel without it. And recently I acquired the ENGIE device. As described The waze and the engie were made by the same creator. So I wanted to leave a suggestion for Union of the two App. Or rather an integration. Giving statistics on which point the road the car spent more or less. Total trip time. How much time stopped and time in motion. average speed and maximum speed. Among others, it makes the waze more complete and working not…

Apple car user experience
When you tap buttons to zoom out the map for example you can go back to navigation by tapping Done on the upper right corner but the Stop Button is placed at the same upper right corner (same color) so I frequently end up navigation by hitting Stop accidentally when I just wanted to resume navigation
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, Waze is already supported on CarPlay. Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

Stop changing back to default route
When I choose a route different from the derault, it's for a reason. It's irritating or worse to find mid-trip that I'm back to the default route without even a notice or warning of some kind. How about sticking to the chosen route but notify the driver of a problem ahead?

Construction notification
Construction alerts are far too annoying. This has been mentioned often by users here. The issue is that they are constantly alerting, making it hard to focus on driving when you have to keep clearing them. Often I will get up to 10 alerts for the same construction zone. This is ridiculous and not helpful.
One solution would be to have construction zones auto populate rather than by users. I know this is done with other apps. The state DOT department ms provide regular notifications of construction in their state. These could be uploaded. Alternatively, just allow one notification per…

Add function to calculate how many hours I want to travel before stopping.
Add a function to add a number of hours you wish to travel toward your destination so you can select a hotel in that city for the night.
Frequently traveling across country and trying to select a hotel on the fly can be a problem because I have no idea where I plan to stop. If I could just say I want to travel 6 or 8 hours it could suggest to me some possible towns or cities to stop in allowing me to do a quich search for a hotel in the area that is pet friendly for instance.1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Routing quality has plummeted after the Google acquisition - please get it back in shape!
(copied over from https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=96033)
I am a passionate Waze user who has converted many friends to the app, and has become a top 4% reporting contributor (I don't participate at all in any other gamified apps or websites). But now my support is waning fast.
Ever since Google bought Waze, routing has progressively become worse and worse. I initially switched to Waze because Google Maps routing had become horrible - inefficient routes when there were obviously better ways to go, etc. Waze does awesomely creative things like telling me to get off the freeway at an exit then immediately…

redlight calculation
Can you calculate red lights by using current users data when they stop and start?
When I drive home you then could give me an estimation on the speed to keep to hit green all the way or to hit green at the right time or wait the least amount of time at a red light.Some lights change every minute and others at different intervals but could you figure this out using gps data (speed etc.)?

Stop telling drivers to come the wrong way up a one way
Waze should stop directing drivers to come the wrong way up the one way street that I live on. The street is Talbert Terr SE. Washington D.C, 20020. Drivers should not turn left onto it from Bowen Rd or drive straight onto it from Howard Rd.

Allow selecting destinations by pointing while connected to Android auto
Currently, when connected to Android Auto, you cannot select a point on map and navigate to it. You have to enter the adres of that location while stopped or through voice.

Stop playing an audio tone when we click on "still there" even with sound on.
With sound on, if you click "still there" for road hazards, you now play a tone. This tone interrupts the playback of bluetooth audio in the car and is very annoying. We WANT other sounds to play, so turning to "alerts only" or "sound off" is not a solution. We just want that little feedback sound gone.
