Motorcycle Routes
I ride a motorcycle a make my own routes with MRA (MyRoute.App). I have used REVER, Harley Rider, Kuviger, and other programs to make motorcycle routes. Up load my designed routes to a GARMIN Zumo GPS. It does a pretty good job, but WAZES has some features that a standalone GPS does not offer. I am looking for a good navigation app like WAZE for my phone that I can upload my routes. Then I follow a specific route. Many of these routes are 100+ mile loop with a stop for a meal.
I think WAZE would be a great…

Waze is providing insane non-stop conflicting directions
It began on 95 NJ Turnpike weeks ago. Waze began to spout a succession of non existent turns etc. It is now happening on GSParkway and also now on local roads. It seems have only a hazy idea where I am but continually issues inappropriate turns etc.

Never change my NON-TOLL route to a TOLL ROUTE without my explicit permission
We are on an extended road trip. We EXPLICITLY told Waze to avoid TOLLS. As you are driving along, Waze will pop up and suggest going the toll route because it will be faster, albeit, more expensive. If you don't happen to see the pop up and don't select "No Thanks", Waze WILL SWITCH IT AUTOMATICALLY to the TOLL ROUTE. If there's another setting to stop that, I haven't discovered it yet. You SHOULD NEVER EVER change my route just because it's faster without my explicit permission to do so.

Show and announce destination upon auto-suggestion navigation start.
When starting navigation via auto-suggestion the driver in fact does not know where to until arrival :) which is sometimes fun, sometimes not. This is not related only to home/work , but also to calendar entries, when skipping one event for the next one calendar based destination takes me to the first place. I would rather be offered a bunch of 3 most probably destinations to choose from rather than stopping the naviagation just to know where to. The destination address shoud be clearly stated on the routes and routes detal views.

Implement a next/previous button in the notifications
When I stop a traffic light I read some notifications, but sometimes I haven't finished to read an important one and it changes to the next. So it will be usefull if I can navigate through this messages.

Requesting roadside assistance
When we drive past a car on the side of the road, we can mark if it's there or not. What if, the person who's stopped, doesn't know who to change a tire or needs alittle bit of coolant to get going?
If it doesn't merit calling a towtruck, they could signal that specific thing on waze. Anyone can pull over and offer assistance, but what if you knew exactly what the problem is and how to help them? You'd be much more likely to stop to help

Stop giving me only OK to select new route, need a NO option
Stop giving me only OK to select new route, Give me a NO option to leave route as is.
Sometimes the original route is the better route or I have a route I want to use and do not want to change it.
Waze gives only one option and that is to say OK. We need a NO button as well to use.1 vote -
More route options than 3
The user gets to choose from as many routes as possible, ordered by time, trip range and optional personal preference (let's say a stop they plan on making or a specific route they prefer to take).

Voice reply
We can report things like crashes or stopped vehicles but we can't reply to the "still there?" prompt. Even having the ability to confirm with voice after we had passed whatever it was would be nice

Limiting typing while "driving" does more harm
Voice only while driving limitation is only making the driving much more distracting and dangerous in certain non-english areas such as Bulgaria for example. Where the voice commands are not working properly. I want for my passenger to be able to type in an address while I am driving, so I won't be distracted by battling with the voice commands and constantly checking what was actually found by them and if it's the correct place. Also why is that even when I pull over and completely stopped I still can't type in. My car is not moving... It's really a…

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 the highway to take the…

Traffipax idősávos 22h-6h sebességkorlátozás
Kedves waze egy weboldalnak a linkjét osztanám meg veletek ahol megtaláljátok Németország területén található traffipaxokat és a traffipaxok pontos leírását amiből értékes adatot nyerhetek. Az én észrevételem dresdenben belvárosában volt hogy az app jelezte a traffipaxot de hibás sebesség határt mutatott ugyanis a mi környékünkön elég sok hely van ahol esti korlátozás van érvényben este 22-6-ig 30km/h ezt kellene egyszer fejleszteni az app ban. a következő amit fejleszteni kellene hogy egy piros lámpa motívumot kellene rakni azokhoz a tafipaxok figyelmeztetéséhez ahol a trafi nem csak sebeséget mér hanem figyel piros lámpánál való megállást is amit persze ugyanezen a linken megtaláltok…

Stay on Major Road Option, Longer Distance, Faster Time
Give a route option to stay on MAJOR roads, state roads and highways, and choice of a slightly longer distance, but shorter time driving. Waze always takes me off the interstate or major state road to save a few miles off of my route, but in doing so I go through every stop sign, speed table, neighborhood and school zone possible. Sure it saved me a couple of miles, but added loads of frustrating time to my drive, increased gas usage and increased wear and tear on my car.
Not only that, the start and stopping of these shorter routes,…

List of potential improvements in order to make Waze the best GSP app
List of possible improvement in order to make Waze the best gps app
1) Please find a way to show on the map the name of the city/locality we are driving in. When using the Waze inside a city is redundant, but if you are travelling through the/a country, we need to know where we are, not only the street name (!!!);
2) Again, when traveling through the country I find important to see on the map which is the next city to reach and the distance to it (even though it is not the final destination !).

Soon turn notifications
I need sooner notice of a turn. With a 14’ trailer full of equipment I need sooner notifications of a turn. At 50 mph there is no way to stop or slow down when I have very little notice of a turn.
I need several notifications: 1/4 mile, 1500 feet, 1000 feet, 500 feet, 100 feet.
If there was a setting to set this it would help.

I would like to see a pickup staging option for ride share and taxi drivers.
As a recent UBER driver, I find WAZE an invaluable tool, as it integrates as a navigator right into their system so I do not have to enter the address manually. I have been using waze since it has been introduced here in Minneapolis, and threw away my old nav systems... Here is an improvement I'd like to see. I would like the option to add a stop to the current address(without having to do it manually), 2 addresses back from the stop, on the same side of the street. Call it a staging stop. That way I am on…
