Make the "speed camera" warning smaller in landscape
Hi :-)
I've been using Waze for a long time and I enjoy using it a lot.However lately the bar that shows arrival time has grown, leaving less space for the map.
That's not the worst though. The worst is that, when nearing a speed camera or speed enforcement zone, the warning covers almost half the screen, pushing the speedometer behind the directions. As you can maybe surmise, I'd really like to be able to see how fast I'm going when nearing a speed camera.
I use the app in landscape because that's the least intrusive way to…

Camera accessibility improvement
When you click on the type of hazard you should be able to have a picture icon on the type of hazard and press on it and he nearly go to the camera instead of the two-step process of pick the type of hazard and then have to take a picture separately.
Four example if you click on pothole you have the option just to record the pothole or there's a camera icon next to the pothole tab and you click on the camera and it AUTOMATICALLY takes you to the camera or even better just snaps a pic right…1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Change the speed camera icon
The speed camera icon has recently changed to a new one however it blends in too much so I can be very misleading, the old speed camera icon was fine and was very noticeable compared to everything else (especially when you have a route inputted in)

When you report a red light camera it should cover the area of the camera not just one side
When you report a red light camera it should cover the area of the camera not just one side. When you get close to that area you will get a alert no matter what side you are on.

On commute mute turn by turn direction BUT announce incidents (accidents, caps, speed camera. Etc.)
If you drive the same route every day (as many people do ) you will not need to hear the turn by turn direction but do need advance warning of incidents ie: cop ahead, slow down in traffic, speed camera ahead etc. right now the only option is all or nothing in the (Setting-sound- navigate guidance) menu. it would also limit the number of times Waze interrupts on ongoing phone call. Thus making app even. MORE DESIRABLE!

Security camera voice alert irrespective of type of camera ahead
The app should notify irrespective of being within the limit because the speed reflecting on the app is 3km lesser than the real at all the given times.
Also, the app doesn't even make a distinctive alert sound when there's a camera ahead.I request you to please integrate the verbal notification for a security camera irrespective of the type of camera installed and irrespective of whether the vehicle is under the speed limit coz at a lot of times due to many reasons like conversing while driving, thinking, managing kids etc. and it skips out of the mind.

Display current speed and limit when approaching speed camera
Currently speed camera alert covers whole bottom screen and hides current speed and allowed speed.
It would be super useful even just to see allowed speed!

License plate recognition for mobile radars
The idea would be to use the rear camera of the phone to check the licence plates of the cars, and make OCR to read it.
Then it will be compared to a database where users could report the licence plates of the mobile radars onboarded in cars.
Waze could then alert that there is an onboarded radar on the road, and also alert other users with a flag on the map.

speed camera hours of operation
Recently a speed camera was installed along my drive. The camera is active only during school bussing/student times, that would be early morning, and early afternoon. There are several also when I drive to Richmond VA that are the same way, and having hours that its active .. with an "active" or "inactive" verbal alert would be helpful. .. eg .. Active School Zone Speed Camera .. or "Active Speed Camera Ahead"

Speed Camera Distance Notification
Using Waze on my iPhone 14 I have noticed that although the position of the camera relative to my car icon is correct & accurate, distance notification pop-up is always about 150-175 yards out. As I pass the camera the countdown continues from 150 yards to zero !!
It's rather annoying that Waze is still showing the distance after I have passed the camera !! The location of the cameras are always correct relative to the arrow representing my car.
Also tried Waze on my car android head unit, and see the same error.
I have a screenshot…

Fix the "red light camera" bug
For literally 5 years now, I've been noticing that at random times I will launch Waze and it will play the "Red light camera reported ahead" message in different languages. The languages used seem to be restricted to ones I've previously associated with navigation instructions, namely: French, Spanish, Japanese. Sometimes the message also plays in English.

Speed Camera Reports throughout an Average Speed Check Zone
When I’m alerted that i’m in an average speed check zone, I tend to get notified every 20-30 seconds of a camera as part of that zone. It gets repetitive and quite annoying as I know that I need to remain within that speed limit until i’m notified that I have left the average speed check zone. It’s just a suggestion but would it make more sense if speed camera alerts were removed whilst in an average speed check zone?

Rotational speed camera
Where I am we have permanent speed camera emplacements, but only 2 cameras that are rotated throughout these emplacements. It would be nice to be able to alert wazers to the presence of these, as Waze's current policy is to not allow temporary cameras to be mapped.

Earlier notification of mobile and static speed cameras
Current speed camera alerts occur too late and usually when the camera can be seen which by then is too late. Earlier warning along with the speed limit would be a great enhancement to the app.
