Enhancements: Allow customization of favorites
At present, as you add a new favorite destination to the list, it is listed at the bottom of the list. It would be helpful to be able to create custom tabs within the favorites so that we could provide some organization to our favorites!

Personal statistics
Would be nice to get stats about your personal routes : average travel time between your first 2 or 3 destinations, average waze error on ETA (accuracy and precision - see wikipedia for the difference), time you spend driving per day, number of wazers you cross... one can invent all sort of fun and useful statistics.

Ad a ”hide me at this address" function
Suggestion: Make an option to hide me from view to all other wazers within a radius of ?200? meters from a selected address
Why: For example, At home I want to follow my wife/husband coming from work, and I turn waze on, now everyone can see where I (my nickname) live. From there it is easy to track me when I am home or out at it becomes easy to track my routines.
In the long run it would be nice if accepted friends could se you at home, and that you could choose our own radius.33 votes -
Average Speed Zones: Exit summary and speed limit compliance alert
Waze does a great job alerting drivers when entering and driving through Average Speed Zones. However, once we exit the zone, the alert simply disappears. Since Waze tracks the exact distance, entry, and exit times, it has all the data to calculate the driver's actual average speed for that specific section.
It would be extremely helpful if Waze provided a brief summary alert upon exiting the zone. For example: "You completed the average speed zone. Your average speed was 135 km/h (Limit: 140 km/h)." If the driver exceeded the average limit, a warning could be triggered so they know they…

Larger Speed and Speed Limit Option Please!
Please give the option to make the Speed Display and Speed Limit Boxes Larger. It is very hard to see due to small size. This would be very helpful in cars like mine that do not have a digital speed display.

רעיון מציל חיים לנסיעה בזמן המלחמה
בעת הזעקה או התראה במיקום שבו הרכב נמצא באותו הרגע שהאפליקציה תציע אופציה של שינוי מסלול לכיוון המרחב המוגן הקרוב ביותר אלייך או אם אין אז אופציה חלופית הכי טובה

Simplify Wazer and Editor workflow for residential places
The current method for a wazer to add their home to the map is confusing and creates more work for waze map editors. The workflow for a wazer is similar to this:
Wazer selects the yellow triangle (if it's displayed on their map)
Next selects "Place"
(now it is about to get really confusing)
Wazer must take a picture
The next screen says "Select Place" with a text field that says "Enter Place name".
For a residence, the wazer should not enter a place name. Just below the text field there is apparently a "button" that if tapped will add…32 votes -
Import Plugshare / Openchargemap database for EV charging stations?
Can Waze import Plugshare / Openchargemap database for EV charging stations?
It should be more efficient to import it, than build/manage it from scratch.32 votes -

Need a widget for android to display map on home screen.
I use a tablet for my car entertainment center, and use waze over google maps. I want a way to add a widget that can display current navigation map on the home screen, so that way I won't need to use split screen all the time. Could have ability to launch full app by hitting the widget if need to interact with waze completely, if too hard to have it interact fully on widget only.

Toll Roads - Certain Toll Roads
Hi
It would be great if we could select certain toll roads that we do and don't want to travel on. In Sydney Australia we have many different toll roads, some offer cash back and most don't, some are distance based toll road and some are fixed price regardless of the length of the road. With the distance based toll roads an entry point a few hundred metres apart can cost you a couple of dollars every trip, multiple that a few trips every day then every week it will quickly add up!!
So It would be great if we…

An option to switch on the screen a second map view showing the route with zoom out
It could be a good idea to have a switch on/off option of a second map view (in one corner of the screen) to see simultaneously the route from higher perspectives (i.e., a zoom out view), in order to acquire information regarding where the Waze would direct us, which roads, after every recalculations of the optimal route.

UK Railway Network LOW Bridges Add Visual and Audible Warnings on approach
UK Railway Networks has 100s of LOW Bridges across UK. Please add Visual and Audible Warnings on approach and give drivers an option to AVOID low bridges. i.e. ask height of vehicle and suggest alternative routes avoiding low bridges. I am happy to help to source a list of all Low Bridges on UK Rail Network.
Every year in Britain there are about 2,000 bridge strikes, where road vehicles hit railway bridges and viaducts – that's an average of more than five every day. Each incident can cause hours of delays for tens of thousands of rail passengers – and…

Police camera ≠ police report
In some countries, it is not allowed to drive with an app giving the exact locations of police cameras (automatic speed control), waze intelligently gives the area where the police cameras are (very useful alert and the utilization of waze is allowed).
But to fight the concept of the "area" most of drivers post a police location each time they pass beside a police camera (I have observed it, a police camera in Paris France is reported every 15 min, sometime several times).
Consequence : waze gives the exact location of each police cameras everyday, every time.
The problem is…32 votes -
What about allowing the users to REALLY contact you? I have a problem and the "Help page" does not help at all.

Pause audiobooks during Waze alerts
I listen to a lot of audiobooks (via Overdrive app) while using Waze to navigate, when I get a Waze alert or prompt though Waze will talk over the audiobook rather than pause/resume it. It's very annoying and I often miss what the narrator is saying and have to back it up. I wish the audiobook could be paused while the Waze alert is given and then pick right back up again afterwards.

Natural gas on Brazil
hello you all... so, I'm a brazilian wazer, and here we have another type of fuel, GNV, that means Vehicle natural gas. It's a kind of metano gas, we have a lot of reserves, it's the cheaper fuel that we have here.
so, I understand that the app cannot be changed just for one country. my suggest is that here, in brazil, at the end of the gas station, we can put the acronym GNV, and the other wazers that use this fuel can know that is a gas station that can supply that fuel32 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.
