Allow local Emergency Management Agency direct entry of road information.
Allow local Emergency Management and/or 911 to have a direct entry of information of road closures through a secure dedicated link from their mobile MDT, desktop computer, and Computer Aided Dispatch desk or cell connected device. As a Local (County) Emergency Management Agency, we feel this would be a great safety benefit for both the traveling public and Emergency Responders.

Reporting Buttons
Hi. I have been using Waze successfully for a while now, and find it really great until it comes to reporting. The most reported incidents, I'm guessing, are Roadworks, Accidents, Road Closures and Police.
It would be great if you could put a direct button on the reporting menu for all of the above, as It's hard to get to report roadworks as there are a couple of menus to go through.1 voteBy holding or swiping the Reports button you’re able to bring up the 3 most used report types for faster reports. You’re also able to use voice reporting using Google Assistant.

Like Apollo beach Blvd. to central which crossed Ty 42 at a stop sign turning left into two lanes of heavy traffic. Vs. turn left on ******* to light at rt411 vote -
Waze suggestion to make it better
Hi, I've been using Waze for a couple of years and I think it's a great app with great features but I'm having trouble with an old issue that needs to be addressed. I live in Romania and here we have a couple of weird intersections with multiple lanes and even overlapping lanes and on my 10" display it's hard to see which one to take to be on your way. Sometimes I need to manually zoom in and then reset to the original position. It would be great if in the near future Waze would do this…

Free parking
I'm a volunteer at the smart campus in my university, and we are developing solutions to transport to/from our campus, hopefully making transit better in the surroundings as well. We'd like to feed waze's system with information about the parking lot occupation, to help students and teacher to fill in free parking spaces faster, and avoid lines in public street lanes, directly avoiding traffic jams.

Serious Issues with Waze
You really need to fix the voice in your Waze app. Some of the time it speaks. Most of the time it stays silent. That's no good!
I frequently have to pull over and look at the map.
When it does speak, it always tells me of a turn too late for me to slow down or change lanes without potentially causing an accident.1 vote -
New setting
Please make a setting so that I can choose to reroute only if it saves 10 or 15 minutes or more. I drive in the city and I think it' can be dangerous (suddenly needing to change lanes to turn, for example), and definitely distracting when it re-routes every 5 seconds. It's not that important to save 2 minutes unless you are an ambulance!

Android auto usage: Last update is not ok at all. The route symbol is small and far, while it.s a button used often during the drive. The routes to be selecter have no longer different colors. It.s very hard to select the preferred route. The lanes are now in the most difficult corner to be observed, while again is something often to be used/seen. Please revert back everything.

General feedback/comments
I have a 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia. I use either Waze or Maps every time I drive. For most of my driving, I don't need any nav assist but I want to stay up to date.
So, for about 6 years, I have been using your app. Here's a brief summary of my comments/suggestions/etc. I do NOT expect anything to change since my Alfa is a non-touchscreen setup. I have to do everything with the rotary knob.
Years ago, you did properly support the capability to make reports. I could do it easily with minimal clicks, without even looking at…

Setting for guidance to bring you to the front of location not across the street.
When the location you are going to is on a road with two or more lanes that go in opposite directions, any you are coming from the side that is across the street from your destination guidance will bring end on the opposite side.
This is very inconvenient if you are doing delivery or dropping off passengers and can also be dangerous if you do not go around.
Please include this in next update.1 vote -
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.

Adapt to my route/Back blocks
So when I put direction in and I do not take the route Waze is providing (sometimes route is longer because they take main roads/streets) I would like for Waze to ask me should they keep this route for next time I go to same destinations. When we live in an area or are familiar with an area then we typically know what some refer to as “back blocks” or small blocks that cut away from traffic/road closures and/or saves time! Thank you for listening!

Allow the users to select the navigation way of look
The way the app displays the navigation route is not particularly convenient for me, especially in the part where there is the direction arrowes, which on wide roads shows all the lanes on the monitor which could be cofusing for some people , if the users will have the option to choose which way of the navigation way of look suits them (as you can select the voice in the app), they will make less directional mistakes.

Further customizability in route options for drivers (enthusiast drivers)
Not only do, I feel like the special voices should have street names as well, especially in the age of advanced speech to text and artificial intelligence, but I also feel strongly that there should be more customizability for route options as it relates to those who enjoy the art of driving… there are toggles to avoid freeways and avoid unpaved roads, but why not a toggle for someone who enjoys the freeways, but also enjoys a fun route with minimal traffic… Something along the lanes of a “enthusiast toggle” where it shows a dynamic route with fun, challenge,…

Improve android auto with lyft
Hello team!!! I just wanted to let you know that I love this app but, with the recent update it's I little frustrating. Let me explain, I work for lyft in California and since their default maps doest show you faster routes or road closures its a pain the neck so I started using Waze connected to my android auto unit. Now the problem is that when I accept a ride and it shows me the direction on my car screen my goes black and I have to keep going back to the lyft app. Is there a way…

Improve safety:
Make it easier to report issues on the road so that we don't really have to take our eyes off the road to make the report..
Now if I want to report an object or car, I need to press way too many buttons while driving. It's a huge distraction and we don't need so many details.
You can change it to a simple "Warning" instead of specifying exactly what it is (object? car? police? ...)...I would have a warning button that's always in the corner of the screen, and then a big interface pops up where you choose if…

It's complain not suggestion
Although I adore the app, many local updates—particularly those regarding speed bumps and road closures—are absent.
When I attempted to assist with map updating, your editor volunteer sent me a message with instructions, which are
not feasible to complete using Android Auto or
driving a vehicle. In addition, the message he sent
gave me a boyish feeling.
annoying the head of the school with his incorrect
responses and unawareness,
so I won't use
the reporting feature once more, and if I discover another way to find speed bump and speed camera locations, I might quit using the app altogether.…1 vote -
Third Option
There is this fairly awesome navigational tool out there named Waze. If you drive any distance whatsoever to and from work in this over-populated state, its truly a useful tool in determining alternate routes around traffic jams, accidents, police activity, road closures; even warning you of road hazards, broken down vehicles, gas prices, etc., etc.
I have only one suggestion for the talented minds behind this application and those keeping it updated and running: It would be oh so amazing if in opening your Waze in the morning for that week day commute, it would not only ask if…
