Add "time to park" in calendar synch.
I have several meetings to drive to every day. Some take 15-20 minutes to park and get to the meetings. I would love a field to add that parking time, to better calculate the "time to go" function. I could use a fake time in my calendar, but with multiple meetings in a day one others relying on my calendar, that doesn't work well.

There are too many clicks to start driving after choosing a destination. you should add more buttons 1. "Drive" 2. "More Option".
In addition, about voice options, the pane should disappear after choosing...the confirm button is redundant1 vote -
Yellow Box Junction Cameras
TLDR Version: At the moment on Waze you can only report either speed cameras, red light cameras or fake cameras, having a 'yellow box junction' camera would be a logical and great addition imho.
Non TLDR Version: Yellow box junction cameras drive me nuts (for those not UK based these are cameras that make sure yellow box junctions - ie boxes marked on the road to stop drivers stopping at the entrance to a side junction and blocking it), mainly because not all yellow boxes are enforced with cameras (so drivers from all angles enter it and the only way…

Going home options
When the app first starts, it always ask if I'm going home. Many times I am, but I say no, only because I do NOT want turn-by-turn instructions for a route I know by heart and drive every day. The app should have the option to only show ETA and maybe suggest a new route for the traffic on my normal route home.

Road closure navigation update
When driving and find that the highway you're about to get on is closed. You sit in traffic for 45 minutes. After you pass the highway it continues to try to navigate you onto the highway when it is closed due to an accident

Improve spoken voice prompts speed
I often find that when driving at speeds faster than 50mph and approaching roundabouts(slowing down of course) off slip roads from dual carriageways/ Motorways often the voice prompts are to slow in mentioning in what turn I need resulting in me needing to go around the roundabout twice to understand the given direction or as the case in the last few days actually being told which turn whilst on the roundabout going past the turn I needed!!
Please look into this as my Garmin unit still gets used a lot because of this problem making it sometimes unsafe to consider…

Road name at bottom when driving
Can you write the road name on which you are in that moment at the bottom in between search and sound? That will be very helpful to see which road are you in that moment! Thank you

Rachel navigation voice back
The Developers have change the standard Brazilian navigation voice from Rachel to Alessandra.
The new voice it's to low. The voice misses some intonation.
This causes many navigation/driving mistakes to the user, including me and my friends that I talk about it.
Please, we need the Rachel voice back.4 votesThank you for your suggestion!
As you probably know, some of the voices we feature are promotional, meaning they are only available for a limited time.
We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.
You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!
Want to try another voice?
Tap Menu and tap the Settings wheel.
Tap Voice & sound.
Tap Voice Language and select the voice you’d like to use. -
Maximum Speed info box when crossing a border
When crossing borders if would be interesting to have a little popup infobox appear on the screen which summarizes the different speeds allowed in the country to which you have crossed the border to.
For example when i'm driving from Luxembourg to France, when crossing the border into France, i would get the info that
1) on Tolled Freeways the max speed is 130 kph
2) Non Tolled Freeways max speed 110 kph.
3) Minor Highway 80kph and etc.When i drive into Germany.
1) Freeway 130 kph
2) Minor highway 90 kph
3) in the city 50 kph10 votes -
Easier Navigation Means Safer Driving
When your getting close to your destination, the app normally lets you see which side it’s going to be on and a picture will show up (normally the picture is never there) but instead of all that I would really appreciate if the address popped up. It’s so frustrating when I’m in the middle of a delivery and have to back petal to find the address somewhere else because I’m also trying to navigate my surroundings and I can’t remember the house numbers. Just a thought for the future..

Ability to Select HOV Routes in Carplay
Right now, when checking different routes, you cannot select an HOV route in Carplay (they just do not show up). You can still select it in the iOS app, but for some reason the Carplay app won't accept the route when you select it from the app. It requires you to select a route on the Carplay app (which doesn't include the HOV routes).
The only workaround I found is to set the HOV route before you connect to Carplay, but if you update the route during the trip, it loses the HOV route ability unless you disconnect Carplay while…

We want a remote!
We want a remote to go with app! It's not always safe to post alerts when driving and sometimes I don't post them quick enough. If you offered a remote with app, I would pay for it!

when driving fast on highway, don't show side streets
When driving fast on a highway, the side streets and names clutter the screen and are not necessary. Removing them would probably also save data usage.

Move the thank and negative buttons
Suggestion!
The thank button and the negative badge for warnings are too close and it's easy to touch the unintended one while driving and bumps affect your hand floating while reaching for the screen. .
It would be nice to have the thank button on the left screen and the negative badge on the far right side. .since most phones are placed on the middle of the vehicle dash area. ..
Thanks for the awesome app!

Alert while not in navigation
It would be great that Waze can alert you even if you are not enter the route so if you just launch the app and start driving.
You won’t enter destination and selecting route if you’re driving to work every day but you still can get the ticket for speeding..3 votes -
Zoom - integrated car displays (Android Auto)
The zoom functionality is awful currently when using Android Auto with an in-car display. Google maps allows easy zooming using the rotatable knob (identical and in line with volume on a VW). Can this become a feature for Waze?? It's so distracting and dangerous trying to zoom when driving, a quick turn either way (like Google maps has) will be much better.

Saving Lives Warning People in Brazil
Hello Waze and Everyone! For the third time I heard a really sad story here in Brazil. First let me tell you: waze made a revolucion in how me and everyone moves around here. But the thing is that in Brazil we have a thing called favelas. Favelas are wood "homes" made by poor people because they dont have anywhere else to live. Favelas are very dangerou places, and once you get in you'll probably end up dead, just like how happened this weekend in Rio because a 70 year old couple end up going there via waze. They typed…

A way th control texting and driving at same time.
We were using Waze for first time today, I was driving and wife was on phone. She was unable to type anything in since car was moving and suggested we stop to input info. This technology should be marketed to the phone companies, which would block people texting and driving at same time. It could save many lives and countless injuries if adapted to all phones.
