Smarter Auto-Zoom!
How about a additional Auto-zoom mode that always keeps the zoom to a level that you can see the whole remaining route? And it would be really smart if this smart auto-zoom would zoom closer at any maneuver point so you know where to go in detail and go back to route-focus after the maneuver.

When previewing a spot, it would be nice if it showed the estimated time you would arrive to that previewed spot.

Multi stop daily routes
For the everyday commuters that carpool. Being able to choose "morning route" & "evening route" that includes 2 or more stops would be great

- Enhanced Gas Station Listing: It would greatly benefit users if the app could accurately list nearby gas stations along the route. Often, the suggested stations are either behind or significantly off the intended path. Providing closer and more convenient options would improve the overall navigation experience.
- Diverse Route Options: While the app excels in offering optimal routes based on live data, having access to additional route options beyond the closest or best ones would be fantastic. Users would appreciate the ability to explore and select from a range of potential routes to suit their preferences.

Add option to display SpeedTraps on main screen without having to use menu.
Add in the settings an option to display "Speed Trap" info on main screen. This would display in either the title bar or on the main screen and would have an icon with two numbers: A red number that indicates the # of speedtraps on your route, and a Yellow number that indicates the # of speedtraps not on the route. This would be very useful because speedtraps move (police pull someone over and then sit in new spot), so it helps to have more advanced notice that police are in the area.

highlight traffic jams
Better highlight of traffic jams on the map. AT the moment, it seems impossible to see an upcoming jam when Waze is following a route. The route track overlays the jam indication of the maps and the whole thing is not very visible. Make it clearer by making introducing stripes, checkerboards or whatever.

I wish we had an option to enable/disable the "alternate routes" when choosing saved locations!
I wish we had an option to enable/disable the "alternate routes" when choosing saved locations! I always only want the fastest route! If I want an alternate route, let me choose it manually.

Hi, it would be fine if I could decide when waze should come with alternative route.
Now if there is traffic jam it comes with alternative even if it would 5 minutes difference. A setting in which I define when to calculate an alternative route, like time to > 30min, would great.
Kind regards

Move street name tags away from the route and the next maneuver arrow
Please display street name tags a bit away from the next maneuver arrow making sure that the arrow itself as well as some nearby streets are clearly visible. In a dense old cities the only way to understand which turn you should take is to compare the map with what you actually see. Don't forget about some GPS lag.

Stop auto re-routing to save nominal time.
Perhaps the greatest problem with Waze is when the inconvenience of taking a nonstandard route is not proportional to the time savings the new route provides. All too often I’m taken on an insane route in comparison to the normal one just to save two minutes.
I would like to prevent Waze from automatically rerouting (or suggesting an alternative “best route”) unless the new route saves 10 minutes of the total “mainstream” route time.
Perhaps people could choose different thresholds for reroutes.
I hate it when all of a sudden I’m rerouted in traffic on…

Detour capability
I would like for the ability to determine a detour to the current route. For example, if the highway you are on is blocked, slow or closed due to an accident, you can push a detour option/button and select the distance of the detour (1/2 mile, 1 mile, 2 miles, 5 miles, 10 miles...) or maybe the system can suggest the detour length based on what it knows of the traffic conditions ahead. Once your determined detour distance is exhausted, you are routed back to your original route. Many GPS Nav systems today have this capability/feature and…

PLEASE improve auto routing feature
Since its implementation I've HATED that Waze...after a short interval...automatically chooses one route (out of several options). The time allotted is not nearly long enough to allow for an informed choice (at least not in a densely populated area where there are several options). If two or three routes are very close in travel time, the shorter one may have higher tolls or traffic slow downs...and I want to assess each one. At least, allow users to turn off the auto route option. I, for one, know my area well and the advantages/disadvantages of each route, and don't…

Nouvelle version beaucoup plus conviviale. Mais on ne voit plus bien la couleur de la route sur la quelle on roule. Dommage.

Add integration with Geocaching.com
Add the ability to automaticly find caches along a route. A feature to get the most caches AND Waze points in X number of miles driven would be a fun driving adventure.
