Southpaw mode for UI layout
Have a toggle to mirror the layout of buttons on the screen in CarPlay. My vehicle has a wide display which puts the hazard button far away. In fact the buttons I use the most are the furthest from me. Having a way to flip or even pick where UI elements sit would be great.

Cambiar la opcion de reporte de incidentes
Cuando uno quiere hacer un reporte de presencia de policía, accidentes o vías cerradas, por lo general ya ha pasado por el lugar del hecho, así que la opción debería poder tener un Pin que se pueda mover y ubicarlo en el punto exacto, de esa manera sin importar donde se conduzca se reporta donde debería ser.

Add a “Kangaroo Alert” option for Australian roads
I’d love to suggest adding a new alert option for kangaroo sightings near roads. In Australia, kangaroos are a significant cause of vehicle collisions, especially around dawn and dusk. It would be incredibly helpful if drivers could mark kangaroo sightings or active areas on the Waze map, just as they can mark hazards or police alerts.
This could appear as a temporary small kangaroo icon, notifying nearby drivers to slow down or stay alert. It would improve safety for both drivers and wildlife, helping reduce collisions, injuries, and road damage.
Since Waze already supports user-reported hazards, this would fit naturally into the app’s existing alert system.
Thank you for considering this, it could make a big difference on rural and regional Australian roads.

Option to select “Use HOV” when Apple CarPlay is active.
Please add an option to select “Use HOV” when Apple CarPlay is active.

A Harry Dresden voice pack
I'm a big fan of the Dresden Files books, by Jim Butcher. I have recently been enjoying the audio book versions. Most of the 17 books are available read by James Marsters.
I would really enjoy a Waze app voice pack, based on James Marsters portrayal of the Harry Dresden character. (Maybe Jim Butcher himself would be willing participate)
I'm sure other Dresden Files fans would also.
Other characters from the Dresden Files, such as Molly Carpenter and Demonreach. Would be a bonus.
I think the female voice actors for Molly vary, but I'm pretty sure J. Marsters does the voice for Demonreach.Other celebrities I have thought of for potential voice packs; Robin Williams, James Earl Jones, & Jack Nicholson.

waze voice reporting issue
After the last two updates, when I have my phone plugged in, the "speak the error function doesn't work as well on Android Auto. The music doesn't pause and it'll take a minute to process. It only really started functioning this way after the "big arrow issue" got fixed on Android Auto.

Personalized voice sidekick with street names
You could make personalized voice options for sidekicks with a second drop down box below for street name pronunciation using a already established voice option for the street names. For instance I could use the Now You See Me voice option for a sidekick with a British street name English option.

Pot holes
Hello Waze can you add a pot hole alert, I drive early hours in the morning and late at night and cant see the pot holes in the road in time to avoid them, it would be great if you can warn traffic of pot hole so they can slow down to avoid them, there have been several accidents on our roads due to pot holes
When the pot hole is identified it should warn traffic going both direction approximately 50M before the pot hole
This addition to the app will be the same as reporting stationary traffic on the road

התראה על קבר צדיק בקרבת מקום (פיצ’ר אופציונלי)
שלום צוות Waze,
שמי אהרון בן אייש, אני בן 24, סיימתי את שירותי במג״ב, ואני משתמש באפליקציית Waze כמעט כל יום.
יש לי רעיון לפיצ’ר שיכול לעניין הרבה משתמשים, במיוחד בישראל ובעולם היהודי.הרעיון הוא להוסיף אפשרות התראה אופציונלית שתודיע לנהג כאשר הוא עובר בקרבת מקום של קבר צדיק או אתר רוחני חשוב.
האפליקציה תוכל לשלוח התראה קטנה, שתאפשר למשתמש לבחור אם הוא רוצה לעצור או לקבל ניווט למקום כדי להתפלל או להשתטח.כמובן שהאפשרות תהיה אופציונלית בלבד, ותכובד בחירתו של כל משתמש אם להפעיל או לבטל אותה.
לדעתי, הרעיון הזה מתאים מאוד לרוח של Waze, שנולדה כאן בישראל, ויכול להוסיף נגיעה תרבותית ורוחנית יפה לאפליקציה.
תודה על ההקשבה ועל כל מה שאתם עושים כדי לשפר את חוויית הנהיגה שלנו.
בברכה,

Use phone orientation to determine initial driving direction
Problem:
When starting navigation from a stationary position, Waze often assumes my car is facing the direction of the road segment, not my actual heading.
This leads to wrong initial instructions — for example, being told to “turn right” when in reality I need to make a U-turn first because I’m facing the opposite direction.Proposed Solution:
Use the phone’s built-in compass and orientation sensors to estimate the initial heading of the vehicle when navigation begins.
In most real-world cases, the phone is positioned facing the same direction as the car (mounted on the dashboard or windshield).
By using this heading information, Waze could:Determine the correct driving direction before movement begins.
Avoid confusing or incorrect first instructions.
Make navigation smoother and more intuitive, especially in parking lots or side streets.
