  2. 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.

    We plan to work on having a personal statistics of the routes taken in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

  3. Calculate speed of travel adjusted for vehicles turning around

    This morning I was caught in a traffic jam in which we traveled 1 mile in 24 minutes. The app was showing travel speed for the area of 8-12 mph at the time because of the number of vehicles exiting the traffic jam to turn around or cutting out of the traffic through side streets. This causes inaccuracy in the eta and may have resulted in routes 'b' or 'c' being faster. Since the GPS is estimated based on location is it not possible to make a change to the system that removes one car length of distance from the …

    During a long trip I would be happy to receive voice feedback about the speed limit on the road at a certain frequency, instead of constantly searching for the speed in the app while driving.
    Thank you for your attention

  5. Mais opção de camera

    Aqui na cidade do Recife, no Estado de Pernambuco, no Brasil, foram instalada muitas câmeras de fiscalização de trânsito, operadas por agentes de trânsito na central do órgão de fiscalização municipal. Ele podem aplicar penalidades à distância como prada irregular do veículo; ultrapassagem em sinal fechado; formação de fila dupla; conversão proibida; e conduzir motocicleta sem utilizar capacete, entre outras. Neste link https://cttu.recife.pe.gov.br/fiscalizacao-por-videomonitoramento é possível constatar os locais exatos que possuem esse espécie de fiscalização, a qual é diferente das outras modalidades de fiscalização eletrônica.

  6. improve Speeding Alerts

    Could the speed indicator be improved in this way: Right now, the speeding icon stays white up to the speed limit, then as soon as 1 mph over, it goes red. I have my alert threshold set to 10% over the speed limit. I would prefer if the speeding icon does not go red until that 10% overage is exceeded. Otherwise the icon would be red most of the time, as most people drive a few mph over the speed limit. And having it red most of the time defeats the warning. It only needs to go red…

  7. More voice warning before freeway exits, regardless of speed

    I noticed that the location of the voice instruction you hear before a freeway exit varies based on how fast you're going.
    Around 100 km/h, you get the voice instruction 1.5 kilometres before your exit.
    Around 80 km/h, you get the voice warning about 1 km before the exit.
    Around 60 km/h, you get the warning just 300 metres before the exit.

    It's the last one that I think is a problem. Some drivers rely mostly on the voice instructions either because we don't have a phone stand or because of restrictive laws regarding phone use while driving. And if…

  8. When you make a report, you should be able to remove or modify it. I reported a hidden speed trap, and a block later the cop took off.

    Hazard reporting should be able to be removed or edited by the person who posted it, especially speed traps when the cop takes off just after you report it.

  9. Can you set the speed "over limit warning" in the speedometer so that it plays the audible warning every time I exceed the speed limit ?

    Can you set the speed "over limit warning" in the speedometer so that it plays the audible warning every time I exceed the speed limit? I'm asking because I've been using Waze to get around Bologna since they added the 30km zone and it's very useful to me. I'm asking you because it only plays the warning the first time and then for a stretch of the road it doesn't play it again, maybe it's set like this so as not to be annoying but I really need it to ring every time. Thank you.

  10. Trip price calculation

    The viamichelin.com route calculator gives you quite an accurate prediction of the trip price based on a few factors.

    • Vehicle average consumption data (by vehicle type, mpg or l/100km).
    • Distance.
    • Average fuel price.
    • Tolls (data publicly available, should be added to Waze).

    I believe it would be very useful.
    Thanks

  14. Control audio warnings as a user option

    In the audio, there are only 3 options. Please add a 4th option as a " user option" There you can not only set the type of warning, but also control the amount of " before exit/turn " warnings. Today, you either have all of them ( 3 ) or nothing. I would like to have for example only 1 waning for exit + Police + speed camera and nothing else. Anyone can chose and set his own preferences on the audio notification.

  15. Semaphore optimization of speed, driving time and fuel economy.

    To drive faster and keep fuel try to know the semaphore timing.
    In this case can advise drive slower or faster (if possible) to drive non-stop in the semaphore green corridor, when possible.

    When driving on a long straight road, when the alert is announced, it is too late to avoid long range speed cameras. Is it possible to adjust the timing of the alert announcement to give more time to warn of what is ahead ?

  17. tollbooth, speed limit and precise location.

    • Add tollbooth to settings under alerts and report to be able to toggle on/off.

    • Option to use speed limit feature without speedometer.

    • Location is not precise. When making a turn the location updates after making the whole turn instead of following precise location while turning like other apps. Also, many times the map will show you at another location and it would start jumping locations like crazy.

    Please take this suggestions under consideration. Waze is already the drivers' preferred app, don't let us have to deal with things like this that just make our experience uncomfortable and many times…

  18. I live in FL. Electricity goes out at least 3 times every week. Each time electric comes back on Waze camera starts recording.

    Find a way to stop Waze from turning on when electric goes out and then comes back on. It happens frequently in Florida. Recording is off then when electricity comes back on it automatically turns recording on. I saw one lady say on Wyze blog camera coming on by itself and invades her privacy. Perhaps power outages are causing her problem. I keep getting alerts after a minuscule even 2 second blip in electricity since camera turns on.

  20. Radar audio warning trigger model

    I don't know if this is a new topic or not, but this is a problem that I've encountered wherein the normal Waze behavior is almost like a bug.

    How it works today
    The visual on screen warning for a Speed camera is based on distance only. I.e it will always show on-screen when the driver is X meters from the camera.
    However, the audio warning for a speed camera only activates if you pass the "detection distance" and are "over speed"

    Problem
    In this specific case, the radar is a 70 km/h radar. The detection distance however…
