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?
237 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Can we get Car/Bumper stickers so we can see other Wazers on the road while driving
When I see other Wazers on the map it is difficult to see them on the road. It would be good to acknowledge each other as this a community project. So some sort of Waze sticker would be good

Show the sun as a ball on the map
Show the location of the sun on the outskirts of the map, a moving yellow ball as you drive. This will give you an idea of when you will be driving straight at the sun. Also fun to see it move around the map. You can change the brightness or color based on how much glare may be in your eyes. Maybe a small arrow coming out of the ball to show the direction of where the sun is moving.

Ideas for improving the application
Good Morning,
1 return the notice to opposing tracks as it is very useful to help prevent accidents
2 include button to inform of the track speed (most informed contain errors)
3 warning when the speed exceeded and (now have to use the Radar Map in conjunction with Waze or GPS)
4 record offline radar accidents and events for our mobile signal is very flawed and often not receive important notices.
5 bug fix when we long time no internet signal Waze does not recognize the signal return which sometimes only makes an application reset

Search Results on the Map - Show current location
When searching for something (i.e. Best Buy) it takes you back to the map and shows all locations. However, it doesn't show current location. When you are in unfamiliar area it is hard to estimate which location of point of interest is closest.

Map comments usage warning message
Could a warning be added to the left side or a pop up warning on save that states map comments are only seen in the editor and not the app. They are for reference. If trying to report an issue use the Send a Report, Map issue option in the app.

Better lane guidance
I like the idea of lane guidance but I would like it if it says stay in this or that lane instead of saying continue straight with arrows pointing up just like what Apple Maps does for example so that way people aren’t cutting across lanes of traffic which I see all the time and that includes turning left or right onto an intersection wether it has a traffic light or not I noticed Apple Maps for example says stay in the middle or left or right lane I would really like it if waze does what Apple Maps does…

Flip phone support
Hello guys, any chance you can add support for the Samsung z flip?
With Google maps and other apps, when you fold the phone it puts the map on half the screen.
I really want to use this app and sack off the usless Google maps but I fold my phone to fit on my dash and this hasn't got the capability of working folded.
Look forward to trying the app while driving
Kind regards

Maltese
I think Maltese should be available as a language on Waze. It would be good to have Maltese available for navigation, as it is not available on Google Maps and I don't see them adding it any time soon.

Update search feature in CarPlay
Please fix the search feature in car play. Having a list show up is not helpful if you are trying to add a stop onto your route. Have the search show up on the overview map so then you can pick which insisted best to stop at on the route.
Also,
Please add stop lights visible in the map. Like you can see railroad crossings. It’s surprisingly useful in Google Maps (which I use all the time because of these two great features).

Prevent Constant Navigation pop-up while using other CarPlay apps.
I drive a Mazda CX-5 and whilst the car is in motion the CarPlay touchscreen is disabled and I interact with the interface using a wheel and buttons to move the focus and activate controls.
When using Waze to navigate and switching to music or Spotify or another app Waze will pop up notifications for alerts or upcoming navigation events.
When forced to use the wheel to control the interface this pop up is extremely annoying and interferes with controlling the CarPlay interface. It is so intrusive that I will be navigating songs etc and when I click to activate…

Remove permanent "where to" and "my Waze" fields when phone is horizontal.
I use Waze with my phone in a horizontal/landscape position. All is good if I set a location target and use Waze to guide me to it. But I sometimes I like to see the traffick volume without setting a destination. In this mode, Waze takes up a third of my map display with the "where to" and "my Waze" fields. I should be able to turn those off or they should auto disappear.

More information for the Editor when opening UR
ENGLISH:
Problem:
Often the UR (User Report) arrive to us without information, even trying to contact the user we do not get a good response rate, so much is that most open URs are closed as UNIDENTIFIED.
Improvement: When opening a UR you could get more information for the publisher in WME as
Route Start Location
Destination of the Route
Location source (Waze Database or Google Maps)
APP configuration information that user uses as Avoid Dirt Road, Toll, Expressways etc.)You may ask me: The user would not have privacy. In parts yes. When you open a UR, we…
