Different icons for search results
Is is possible to differentiate the icon for cities and for all other places in search results?
Currently all of them have this "pin" icon and this is okay for all places, but it would be much clearer, if you used different icon to mark cities (like a globe or something).
Mockup: https://www.upload.ee/image/6691418/results.png
In this example the first result is a village and a cottage with the same name is the second.26 votes -
Check time based turn restrictions during recalculation
Waze doesn't seem to take time based restrictions into account as it recalculates. When you start the drive it might be OK to make a turn, but a 5 minute delay would make the turn illegal. As Waze updates the ETA it should also check that turns remain legal.

Hazard alert confirm/deny
Keep the hazard alert thumbs up or down option on screen just a bit longer (don't start it so early if you want to keep the length of time posted the same). Right now, the option disappears about a tenth of a mile before I can confirm or deny the alert. At least keep it up until we pass the site of the hazard.

Android Samsung galaxy note 3 multi window feature.
Would love to use it with other apps. This limits me to only use one app. With Google maps I can listen to YouTube or a music app while I see and hear directions. Thanks.

Logging Options on Waze (distance, driving time, gas costs)
It would be great that Waze could log some data about your trip.
So you could include a kind of dashboard that could display your speed, average speed, distance driven, a kind of trip distance resetable by user, as well a fuel logging calculator.
The fuel logging calculator should enable you to register the price spent and the ammount of fuel you've filled. This would be great for drivers to make some stats in order to reduce costs.26 votes -
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.

groups but no friend list on waze
Hi all! Im wondering just one thing. On waze you can join a group, but there is no way to have a “friend list” for locating them, know if there are online, send address or just chat. Can this feature be added?

Distance to drive after a turn
After a turn, it'd be nice if the distance before the next turn is said. something like "turn right and go straight for 5 miles"

*NEW* hazard notification for roadkill
Dear my WAZE PPL
First, I want to thank waze for creating such an outstanding navigation tool that helps so many drivers stay informed and safe on the road. I truly appreciate how the app continuously evolves to meet the needs of its users.
I’d like to suggest a potential improvement to the “Hazards” feature. While the current options, such as “Objects on Road,” are helpful, I believe there’s an opportunity to make the app even more informative and user-friendly by adding an alert specifically for roadkill or deceased animals on the road.
In my area, it’s common to encounter…

Also, the map should have an option the avoid going under the bridge due to the height of certain Luton vans and HGV.25 votes -
Stop navigation once you're "close enough" to the destination
Waze should have an option where it stops trying to re-route once you're close to the destination, especially when it is not possible to actually drive to the exact entry point for whatever reason.
Context:
I've got someone who has brought up routing issues to their destination a few times, and at least two or three local editors have made various changes. They now again have been saying that once they arrive, Waze wants them to exit the parking lot again, and make a huge detour just to return again to where they are already located.
I am convinced this…

Merge two or more alerts
Today Waze prioritize some alerts and you only have 1 visible and audible alert, even if it has 2 or more in the location.
My suggestion is that in this case Waze can "merge" these alerts. Something like "Speed trap and accident reported ahead"
25 votesWe plan to work on merging two or more alerts in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

Allow entering destinations while driving.
Passengers should be able to use the app while the car is on the road, same for drivers trying to change destinations during a red light.

Speeding Camera icon
I suggest that the Speeding Camera icon can be more obvious or may be larger on map.. Coz I sometimes I mistook the icon as other wazers.. Or wazer icons are too much to cover over the speeding camera icon... Thank you for reviewing my feedback.

Adapter le trajet et la vitesse pour la conduite accompagnée
Bonjour, pourquoi ne pas ajouter une fonction incluant la conduite accompagnée pour éviter les routes les plus difficiles et modifier les limitations de vitesse en fonction de la vitesse maximum. Par exemple : lorsque la limitation est de 130 km/h, la limitation de vitesse pour la conduite accompagnée est de 110km/h.

Search along my route
When searching for a restaurant when I'm en route, don't tell me about the restaurant 2 exits behind me, tell me about the ones ahead and along my route. Maybe suggest a place along my route in an estimated time frame. i.e., look for a place to eat lunch between noon and 1p or breakfast at around 7am
Similar look ahead for hotels or stores.25 votes
