Save Battery by turning off the display when not in use.
Currently when I use waze, my phones display is draining the battery. I have the following suggestion to reduce the battery usage. If you could include this in future release, I am sure everyone will turn on waze even if they don't need navigation assist.
My suggestion
Turn off the display automatically after a certain speed or give the user an option to turn off the display without locking the phone. This will be very helpful to reduce battery usage when you travel familiar routes and long road trips.
Turn on the display automatically when there is a voice command…
19 votesGreat news! The battery saver mode is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Trailer Speed and Seatbelt/Phone Cameras operating in Queensland
Firstly I know there are posts regarding this including mine but I think this needs to be addressed with fresh eyes and open minds.
I understand there is a resistance to showing the Seatbelt/Phone Cameras and I can see the thinking behind it but would like to suggest that a General Warning would be better than none.
Now on to the main part of my idea which is only applicable if Waze have no intentions of giving Wazers three options to report these Trailer Cameras (Unidirectional QPS Speed Cameras, Bidirectional Acusenus DTMR Speed Cameras and the Acusensus Seatbelt/Phone Cameras).

I would like Waze to show me the recommended speed to avoid multiple stops while in slow moving traffic jam
Especially when driving regular gear cars, you prefer to drive slowly but steady, rather than stopping and accelerating consistently. This is also favorable in fuel consumption manners. In the long run, if a lot of users will obey this feature it could consequently help to promote the traffic congestion by preventing multiple stops, and improve the traffic flow.

Speeding
Please add an option (for users who choose to turn it on) to have Waze make a loud annoying sound continuously for as long as we are over our selected speeding threshold. A single alert tone that sounds like every other alert tone is not enough for me and my lead foot. I need to be punished.

1) Update speed limit with smart motorways
1) update smart motorway speeds more frequently as most the time it’s not up to date.
2) make it easier to see which route is the most economical and which is the fastest. Sometimes I wanna drive economically but it’s harder to see which route is lowest miles.1 vote -
is there a way to speed up or bypass the go now screen? I drive for Uber and Lyft and response time is very critical. Please advise.
Can I speed up or bypass the "go now" screen? So I don't have to push the button every time to get a quick response. Please advise.

Police Otherside has been eliminated?!
Police Otherside has been eliminated?! Not showing on roads previously used. Police other side is gone from choices. Why? Many municipalities are about revenue and not safety. Artificially low speed limits are cash cows.

select trailer or caravan
Driving through 6 different countries from Netherlands to Italy with my trailer. You sometimes forget what the legal speed limits are in each country. It would be great to be able to select a car-trailer combination. also because the travel time is very different if you compair this with a single car.

Upcoming Speed Limit Changes using symbol on the road ahead. Red symbol if the next zone is slower, green symbol if the limit is raised. Sam

Add option to select car pool when navigating
Lets popup "carpool?" button after choosing destination in carpool times. This will help to get corresponding exits and more precise calculations. Sometimes traffic stopped while carpool is open and I dont want to get average estimation and alternative route. Thanks!

Alert sounds
Please can you add the ability to enable Wazers to select alert sounds. The speed limit alert sound is so short and quiet it is almost impossible to hear even at full volume. The ringing bell for roadworks is so loud and clear but doesn’t really need to be! I would love to be able to select the sound for each alert notification. Thanks!
51 votesGreat timing! We’re currently working on having an option to select alert sounds. Keep an eye out for updates in your app store.

On a feedback there is no ability to report INCORRECT SPEED LIMITATIONS.IE Waze shows 50 KM/hour in a 40 Km/hour area
Need to be able to press the golden diamond and notify speed display incorrect. This could be a permanent road change as on the Esplanade , Lindisfarne Tas. where 50 shows in 40 zone, or temporary restriction for roadworks

Optional "no map" (trip computer) view when route is known
8 out of 10 times I use Waze driving to and from work, a route I know very well so I don't need Waze to show me my position on the map.
What I instead would like is a "trip computer" kind of interface, showing me things like my current speed, current speed limit (if known), maybe a color code for traffic ahead on route (green, yellow, red), ETA, current road name (nice to have, not need to have - I know where I am), live updates of incidents (needs to update themselves automatically), textual navigation instructions like "turn…15 votes -
Police traveling in unmarked cars
Add a feature for police traveling in unmarked cars in your lane. To warn wazers ahead of you within a certain speed radius. Not sure if that’s doable.

When you report a mobile camera it should stay up forever just like the speed traps
In Israel, the police put mobile cameras that take a photo of the driver using his phone. If you report a mobile camera, the report doesn’t stay on the map for long even though the cameras stay in the same place for sometimes a week and sometimes a year mobile cameras that are reported should stay on the map for as long as speed traps stay on the map, which is forever

Throw out speeding data from ETA.
Please add an option that does not factor vehicles driving over the speed limit into ETA. It would be nice to have an accurate arrival time if you are not driving above the speed limit.

Create a "soft warning" for known situations.
For example: A location where speed traps are consistently reported would have a warning in a radius such as "speed traps have been reported here." The color of the warning could fade from red to orange as reports decline or vice versa. There's one street I travel where there's a cop shooting radar 80% of the time. There could be a warning about that regardless of if a Wazer had been through recently.
