go back to previous route planner as today the version is proposing strange routes and for sure not the best anymore
since 3 or 4 updates , the efficiency is going down !!!!
traffic not updated live
routes proposed not anymore efficient : strange proposals => software lost in efficiency not proposing the best route and consistent alternatives or not proposing appropriate deviations saving really time
sory but I will stop using it as now google maps is becoming very effective !!!

Swap the speed limit & notifications on the map
Swap the speed limit & notifications on the map. The speed limit should be in the circle (opaque) and actual speed in the b&w box. Reading the circle is difficult for actual speed.

Motorcycle using a 7" Tab 3 active. Beter than a Garmin!
Can you make high contrast maps for direct sun light on screen, size adjustable speed indication and limit, optional speech for over speed, and glove friendly button sizes.
Waze is already good, this would make it the best on a bike

Option to "drive through" when using navigation
When Using navigation, sometimes I need to drive through particular point on map, I mean drive to destination VIA some point on map. When taping and holding on map, a popup menu shows up. It would be great to add there an option for the "Drive Through this location" or something like that. It would also give a chance to plan a more specific route if such custom "VIA points" could be added as much as needed.

A button for HOV or non-HOV
There should be a button to tell Waze whether the car is in the HOV lane. 1), it would help Waze better determine traffic speed since it wouldn't average Wazer's in the HOV lanes with the speeds of those driving slower. 2), the Map would/could show the average speed of HOV or non HOV speeds. A Wazer in the HOV lane could really impact the accurate speed average shown (and vice versa).

Sarebbe utile un collegamento rapido per l'applicazione deliveroo rider
Come nell'app glovo rider, servirebbe l'opzione per poter utilizzare Waze, al momento deliveroo è possibile solo con Google Maps

Add "Show Friend Wazers Only" Option
Perhaps you can consider adding the ability in settings to not just show/hide all Wazers but add a third option to "show friend wazers only", too. Be great to have this so when caravanning you're still able to see your friends without seeing all wazers which can sometimes clutter the map. Thanks.
68 votesGreat news! The feature of showing Wazer friend only is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Add authorized Vehicles only entrances on highways to map
When driving on a highway where the two directions have land in between them and often there are many trees in that area, it would be good Sea on the map where the entrances are for authorized Vehicles only that go from one side of the highway to the other side of the highway. This is often where maintenance Vehicles Park and also law enforcement vehicles. It is often hard to see if there are any vehicles parked there until you actually pass the area especially if there are a lot of trees there.

Hi! I think it would be nice if the live map in the browser would detect the current time and display the future hours according to it
Just like it is now in Google Maps. In the way that the Waze live map in the browser works can lead users to misunderstanding. Someone searching for the duration of the trips can think that the first options are PM, specially if he is doing it close to midday and assume that the next options are PM

Increase visibility area in landscape mode.
While using waze on my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy Note 3), the device is on its side. I like to see the map in landscape mode. With the new update (version 4.0.0.2 installed) any warnings and the display of the names of streets COVERS a big part of the map. I suggest to enlarge the área of the map shown in landscape mode for smartphones at least.

Make map zoom buttons on CarPlay always be visible.
Currently, in CarPlay it takes several clicks in different locations of the screen just to get the map zoomed in/out just one step. Since the zoom buttons are so frequently used, please consider making them hot buttons (alway visible on the map). Seems silly to have to hunt down through the UI to find the zoom buttons, and that could be a safety issue as well.
Thanks!6 votes -
Check Waze on our work or home Mac computer
My wife and I always need check Waze before our long commutes to and from work. It would be very helpful to be able to check the maps on our home/work Mac computers (large screen easier to view maps) rather than having to go and get our iPads or iPhones. Any chance of this happening in the near future??

Waze LiveMap to device for navigation
Can we map out a route online using the website, then send it to your phone for navigation before you leave?
Would be useful especially when routing errands and have to plan multiple stops.

Accident alert
If something happened to a driver and it was an accident, Waze should detect the drastic "Stop" of the driver and after that if in th next 5-10 second no movements are done, should pop up a message asking the driver if he was in an accident, if the driver doesn't answer in 20-25 second, the "Alert" should appear on the map alerting the near user of Waze. What do you think?
