Send weekly reports including speed behavior.
It would help to identify driver's behavior. Waze could even be used in court. And it is important for you to be aware of the times you drive over the speed limits. Things look different when you see it in a summary.

Speed icon to drag and drop option.
Hello dear developers and team.
Since last update the "Speed" icon sticked to the center-bottom and very often it layered over the streets titles and the routes.
I think it would be great to have an option to choose where to place that icon on the screen, for example left-bottom, left-top and etc... Thank you in advance2 votes -
Bring back "wrong speed limit" report
I'm using Apple CarPlay if that changes anything.
Some years ago, I could report "wrong speed limit". Now there is no report button like this and it causes the entire reporting worflow much longer: I report a general issue, then someone finds it, asks me what the issue is about (and I don't always remember if it was about the limit), and then I reply and they fix it. It could be just 1 click and then someone fixes it - much faster!

Kangaroo Alert Feature for Australian Waze Users
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 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…

Play ground sign detection
Some cities have switched school zones to playground zones with the same reduced speed limit. A nice feature would give an alert when the play ground sign is detected.

use speed limits to cap estimated time to destination
It seems to me that Waze uses the average speed of traffic to estimate the time to the destination of the route selected. However, this is not very useful to me if the average speed of traffic is greater than the legal speed limit. While I may be okay with exceeding the speed limit under certain conditions, I almost always prefer to know how long it will take me to get somewhere if I drive at most the legal limit. From there, I can make my own decision as to what route to take or how fast to drive.

Add contrast to the arrow in average speed bar
When displaying the average speed check bar on the left side of the screen, it would help to make your own location on the bar easier to see.
At present the arrow on the bar is light blue, a brighter colour arrow would made your location in the average speed check area easier to see in bright conditions.2 votes -
Alert popup windows disable feature
In android auto the alert popup windows cover vital informations (time to reach destination, lanes to pick on the upcoming crossroad). Recently, the amount of these popup alerts increased so, that they are there almost all the time. There is the option to disable alerts completely, but the alerts are what separates waze from other navigation apps, so not really a good option.
My sugestion is to include the option to disable just the popup windows while leaving the voice notification for the alerts on.
Thank you.

Be able to avoid roads that are over a certain speed limit!
We should be able to set the navigation to avoid certain roads that go over a certain speed limit that we should choose. Like if i want to avoid roads that go over 80km/h waze should be able to help me find a route like that. Or maybe I want to avoid roads that go over 60km/h or I want to only go on roads that have bike routes!! Please make this a feature.

Horizontal app use: Show speed while music player is open
When app is being used horizontally & the music player is open, the "speed/speed limit" feature isn't visible. Would love to have an option to move it somewhere else or make the music player a bit smaller which would prevent having to open & close it as often just to check speed info. And on that note, the arrow to close the media player could be a tad bigger so that it requires less accuracy, reducing time with eyes off the road. Love this app though!

Please consider adding the number of drivers to the traffic speed display. The greater number of drivers the greater the confidence in the speed displayed. Conversely if a speed along a corridor is based on only a few drivers the accuracy is questionable.

Speed camera notifications AFTER passing it
I think you should get rid of the notification that comes up with the little timer after you've passed a speed camera. It takes so long to go away and it's not convenient to press close so many times. Plus it's not useful what's the point you've passed it now
