1. When showing „Routes”, to be able to select „best average-speed route”

   When showing „Routes”, to be able to select „best average-speed route”, because many drivers prefer a longer but a more pleasant drive to a shorter but full of stops and traffic jams one. Driving faster is part of the pleasure of driving.
   Especially in very busy areas, this option would be more than welcomed.
   Driving is a pleasure per se, but not if you just stay in line, stuck in traffic jams.

4. Limit traffic alerts to same country/smaller area

   There's no point in showing alerts from 2000+ km away. Most people are only interested in alerts in their immediate area.

   On Android, iPhone and next versions of Symbian and WM, you can set a radius for alerts. Go to general settings.

5. Maximum Permitted Speed or MPS

   An important factor during a car trip is the "Maximum Permitted Speed or MPS".
   During a car trip, the MPS changes constantly:
   1) from 70 to 50, then to 90, suddenly to 30, then again to 70, 30, 70, 100, 90, 120, etc.
   2) The MPS aren't always the same type of traffic signs.
   I've noticed that I sometimes miss a traffic sign, and WAZE alerts me, for example, with an audible signal (thanks for that!).
   My gaze automatically shifts to my smartphone, which actually distracts me from what's happening or could happen on the road!
   That's why I'd like to venture a suggestion for what I consider a minor change to the "Navigation Screen" of the trip.
   With the aim of:
   "Significantly increasing road user safety!!"
   Proposal:
   At the bottom left of the navigation screen:
   1) the MPS will be displayed in a small "red/white circular" traffic sign;
   2) and just below that, the "Current Speed (CS)" in a larger "black circle."
   ======>>>> My proposal is to reverse the size of the circles for both indicators.
   In other words, the MPS circle, the most important indicator,
   will be larger and more readable than the CS circle.
   Especially in the dark!
   Moreover, the CS is less important; we also read it on the car's dashboard.
   The CS is normally lower than the MPS, otherwise WAZE will display a large MPS warning pop-up and/or an audible signal.

7. Enable Speech-to-Text for Map Update Requests While Driving (via Android Auto and CarPlay)

   I would like to suggest an improvement to Waze that would allow users to fill out map update requests (URs) using speech-to-text while driving, particularly when connected through Android Auto or CarPlay.

   Currently, when users select a map update option (such as "Incorrect address," "Missing road," or "Speed limit") while driving, there is no way to add a description of the issue. This limits the ability to provide detailed reports and often results in incomplete information being submitted. With speech-to-text functionality, users could quickly and safely dictate descriptions of the problem without having to stop or manually type anything.

   For example:

   General error: "There’s a detour due to roadwork on Main Street."

   Missing road: "There’s a road missing between Maple Ave and Pine St."

   Speed limit: "The speed limit is 60 on Highway 10, not 45."

   Incorrect address: "The address for 123 Oak St should be 125 Oak St."

   This feature would not only make reporting map issues easier and more detailed, but it would also ensure that users can submit accurate information safely while driving. By integrating speech-to-text, Waze could enhance its mapping accuracy without distracting drivers from the road.

8. Audio alerts for speed and red light cameras

   My audio alerts for speed and red light cameras stopped working a few months ago. I'm running waze directly on my phone (Google pixel 7) with the latest version of Android OS and waze app installed. My settings for alerts are correct. I see the flashing camera on the map and text alert on the screen but audio alerts are not working. I live in NYC where cameras are on every other block. Constantly monitoring the phone screen for visual alerts while driving is annoying and dangerous. I see lots of similar posts with replies from waze that the issue was fixed but sadly it's not or at least not for everyone. Please address it. Thank you for your help.

9. Protest the removal of the police warning feature!

   The Sheriff's association is using the tired old excuse that the police warning feature in the Waze app "could be used by terrorists." That is a RIDICULOUS excuse! The truth is that they just don't want us having the ability to warn others about their friggin' speed traps, and they don't want us avoiding tickets! Terrorists my shiny white butt! They use all of their technology against us, and then when we have something to use against them they just don't like it. This feature in Waze is just the next step above radar detectors. Well we got those and they couldn't stop them, so they shouldn't be able to stop this feature. PROTEST THE REMOVAL OF THE POLICE WARNING FEATURE. We have the right to know where our public servants are, especially if they're out there setting up speed traps everywhere trying to rob us of our money! First they deliberately set speed limits on various streets to ridiculously low levels, then they direct the cops to set up speed traps knowing that people are going faster than the stupid limit they imposed. It's all a friggin' lie, a swindle specifically designed to rob us. Well I for one say screw that. TELL GOOGLE: I WANT MY POLICE FEATURE. Do it now, because they already agreed to meet with the Sheriff's Association!

12. Car play ETA details override during upcoming Speed Camera Alerts

    Hello Waze Team,

    I would like to suggest an improvement to the Apple CarPlay experience when approaching speed cameras.

    Currently, when a speed camera alert appears, it temporarily replaces or hides important navigation details such as the estimated time of arrival (ETA), remaining distance, and trip duration. This can make it difficult to stay aware of key trip information while driving.

    I recommend maintaining the visibility of ETA, remaining distance, and travel time even during speed camera alerts, or displaying the alert in a way that does not override these essential details.

    This improvement would enhance usability and allow drivers to stay informed without compromising safety.

    Thank you for your continued efforts in improving the Waze experience.

    Best regards,A Waze user

14. On the car screen the Exit Route Button is on the right side, it should be on the left side to be closer to the driver.

    Exit Route Button on in car screen is located on the right side, it should be on the left side to be closer to the driver.

    Also the same for the button used to report things on the road.

    The less time a driver looks away from the road the better, and looking and reaching farther away is never a good thing.

16. Bearbeitungslimit sperrt Eingaben im WME / Editing limit blocks input in WME

    Werden Änderungen über das Limit hinaus erarbeitet, ist dies möglich. Die Limitgrenze verhindert das Abspeichern der Bearbeitungen, sodass alle Änderungen rückgängig gemacht werden müssen.

17. Premium user / tipping users for correctly placed speed traps

    It would be nice to give some incentive to users to actually use correctly this app.

    What do i mean by that?

    1. The first and most dangerous obviously it is a speed trap. I would give immediately my half of speeding ticket to users that saved me from that.
    2. More users would be drawn to the Waze and we could have more information, because there is a reward for being useful
    3. We could have hotspots, that means, zones where is frequently reported some police activity, even if it isn't reported today, beware it might be something.

    I would happily pay monthly subscription for better service, after all you have to pay fines and lose your licence, what is some monthly fee for better info?

    The amount of data saved currently is insufficient to allow mapping of vast rural areas. Saving this data when storage is available and later uploading will speed the completion of your goals.

20. Add Driving Cops

    When cops are driving, you can add driving cop which would make a cop drive on waze at the speed limit of the freeway. If the driving cop is around wazzers, the wazzers can confirm if the driving cop is near by and calibrate where the driving cop is helping out other wazzers.
