An idea.
Problem: I am on a trip from 800 kilometers with the route defined and must supply the vehicle in the middle of the route must go into settings and check for Waze fuel stations near which usually makes me out of route.

Display photo from user report in popup
In the client, reports can have photos attached, e.g. a photo of the accident or roadworks site can be attached to the report. The photo is displayed on the waze website in the live map.
However, when other phone clients receive the road report, the photo is hidden and hard to display.This is a request to display the photo attached to the report maximized on screen for 5-10 seconds (together with a "report abuse" button) for hands-free operation of the client.

Sound Navigation
One of my favorite things about Maps is when I'm in route to my destination and I want to here what my next step in my direction is that I can tap the screen and here the lady tell me what to expect next whether I'm .2 miles away, 1 mile away or 5 miles away from my next turn. With Waze If I'm driving and want to hear what my next turn is I have to wait for the app to choose when to vocally acknowledge what I am to do next. I would like Waze to have the…

Let user know where congestions and accident are.
Would be nice if when chosen a route to see where the congestions and accidents are before pressing GO. It could be possible through the screen where the whole route is presented by pressing the ballons.

Alert pop-up on car screen - add a dismiss
Example: red light camera in x feet
The only options are to say "thanks" or "not there". I just want it to go away so I can see the estimated arrival time. Without this option, there's no way to obtain accurate feedback. I just select one or the other so it goes away without knowing which is accurate.

Auto removal of notifications of police etc
When the pop up comes on the screen it should automatically go away once you pass the locations. Having to touch the screen takes your eyes off the road

Speed limit alert
Hey Waze
I have a proposal that I think would help with traffic safety. You have already created a speed alert. The problem today is that it only gives an alarm once in a speed zone. To get a new alarm, you need to enter a new speed zone. I thought it might be a good idea to make it possible for you to choose to get an alarm as long as you drive too fast, and that you can choose the alarm tone and volume. In android auto, the speedometer is placed on the right side of the screen…

Audio apps on carplay
Youtube Music, Spotify, iHeart Radio, etc. have integrations with the waze app to show current track info on waze, I'd like to see that track info displayed on waze when using Apple Carplay.
I'd like to see both navigation and track info showing on the Carplay screen, either through the carplay dashboard screen, or inside the Waze app

As a motorcycle user
Not all motorcycle users have an intercom, and while driving the motorcycle we cannot hear alerts, radars, accidents, police. It would be good if, given these notifications, The entire mobile screen flashes, to visually alert. Dashboard type in MotoGP.

User coud select correct lane
In my country (Brazil), there are many places with Express & Local lanes running side by side.
In that case when Waze makes the route and the traffic changes quickly, I decide to choose a different lane (for exemple express instead of local), I wanted to be able to "touch" the screen and select the correct lane, so Waze could re-route and show me the rights options to continue my route.
2 votesGreat news! Lane guidance feature is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Absolute black display
Most of the iPhones from 10 and above have OLED displays, they can save battery on absolute black color, also at night it’s less distracting, and there’s less screen burn. A minimalistic night display with absolute black will be amazing feature. Also add a function that refreshes the screen on iPhones to reduce screen burn. Thank you

Please maintain the orientation and zoom set by the user.
Please update the software to have a switch that allows the app to maintain the orientation and zoom set by the user. If the user rotates the map (let's say by 45 or 90 degrees) maintain that orientation. If the arrow is about to go off screen, center it without changing the orientation or zoom.

Version 4.0... put me back in the middle of the screen. Currently in this version it centers me at very bottom of map.
If you select keep north up and your route is south you can see very little.

Display the ratio of alcohol/gasoline prices for flexible fuel cars...
Most flexible fuel cars present a 70% ratio between gasoline and alcohol fuel economy. Displaying this number on the fuel prices screen would allow drivers to better decide between which one of the fuels to use.

I suggest that the traffic reporting button, at least in countries where driving is on the right side of the road, move to the left side of the screen which is closer and more accessible to the driver.

move hazard alert button
The hazard alert icon is in the lower left corner of the screen on my android auto waze screen. This results in taking my eyes off the road to reach it across the dash. If it were relocated to the lower left corner of android auto screen it would facilitate easier and safer access.
