  1. O Waze deviria avisar todos os locais de radares, indepenente da Speed.

    Bom dia,
    Moro no brasil, na cidade de São Paulo e uso muito o Waze.
    Aqui em São Paulo há muitos radares de velocidade e as multas são muito frequentes.
    Minha sugestão:
    Gostaria que o Waze me avisasse sempre que tivesse um radar, independente da minha velocidade. Desta maneira tenho a possibilidade de ir memorizando os locais e assim evitar multas.
    Este problema de multa por velocidade em São Paulo, é muito grande e se o Waze pudesse incrementar, melhorar os avisos e alertas, iria nos ajudar muito.

    Obrigado,

    Fernando Pimentel

  2. It would be amazing to have traffic conditions and route details based on the HOV lane. Thanks!

    HOV Lane button would be amazing! I would love to know the traffic conditions based on using the HOV lane. Thanks!

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

  3. Please allow us to turn off the speed limit and actual speed!

    I am able to turn it off on the application, but it remains when using the app in android auto.

  4. Speed up the opening page

    App lacks responsiveness when first open. This has gotten worst over time.

    When open. I want to select or enter location, but WAZE is none responsive “tapping on screen has no effect”. This all happens during initial entry.

  5. Waze should have Patch Notes for every update. Let Users know what has changed with each new version (dropped support, improved support etc)

    Patch Notes, like those implemented in every online game in the past two decades, would drastically reduce User issue-reporting (with the app) due to misunderstanding of which Waze features are supported, which are not, which features have lost support and where etc.

    Just every time the User updates the app, upon next sign-in, just flash a dialogue box with the latest patch notes (perhaps a link).

    As an aside: the Help Center could be more clear and specific about how certain features (e.g., speed camera alerts) work. The exact parameters for getting audible speed camera alerts are not known and…

  6. Integration between Waze and car features.

    Some cars already have the integration between waze and its onboard system, I believe this functionality can be exploited in the best way.
    How to apply the improvements:
    Speed: If the speed is higher than the speed of the road, the application along with the car system changes the speed of the CAR in colors such as green (below speed), yellow (speed near the limit), red ( speed above the limit).

    Petrol Stations: Check the percentage of gasoline in the car and inform the nearest gas station (thus the propagation would be more effective, since it would…

  7. Uk

    In vehicle settings it would be really useful to show vans as the speed limits are different usually 10mph less but you could check this. Thanks

  9. PLEASE stop routing people on minor roads

    Please stop routing people on minor roads like Norwich St in Milwaukee! Our small, quiet road now has tons of traffic that it never had before (I've been here 20 years) and that it wasn't designed for, to the point that I might look into whether we can get speed bumps, especially since most of the cars are going WAY over our 25 mph speed limit. Keep people on the major roads that were designed for more traffic and that have higher speed limits, please.

  10. ETA & TBR during holyday

    Some working week days might be a holiday once a year for some national celebration, and should be treated specially, not only for the ETA calculation, but also for TBR (Time Based Rules) for routing.
    It might be an 8th day of the week with its own stats and be activated for requiring countries based on a given dates list .

  11. Traffic Jam

    Waze use to reroute drivers when traffic jam is detected. Rather it's standstill, heavy, or moderate. Now it takes you through it even if it's standstill or heavy. When you manually reroute yourself by exiting the highway. It tries to reroute you back into it instead of choosing the next best route. The only thing that keeps me from doing back to Google is that Google don't show speed limits fast n reports takes some time before you can create a crew report .

  12. Stay on Major Road Option, Longer Distance, Faster Time

    Give a route option to stay on MAJOR roads, state roads and highways, and choice of a slightly longer distance, but shorter time driving. Waze always takes me off the interstate or major state road to save a few miles off of my route, but in doing so I go through every stop sign, speed table, neighborhood and school zone possible. Sure it saved me a couple of miles, but added loads of frustrating time to my drive, increased gas usage and increased wear and tear on my car.

    Not only that, the start and stopping of these shorter routes,…

  14. Time since road been driven

    Tells user most recent time since another wazer traveled that road, highway, street, etc.

    This idea would allow users to know accuracy of road reports, or if none be aware of possible reports.

  15. police: trailing/leading (in motion vs stationary)

    Reports of stationary police are nice, but reporting highway patrol on the prowl with that feature is untenable.

    Please consider a feature to report actively pacing highway patrol with modifier for leading (ahead of officer), or trailing (behind officer).

    There should be an option to anonymize the report should one be traveling WITH- or accelerating AWAY from- the highway patrol at speeds exceeding posted limits.

  16. It would be great if the Units could switch automatically between Miles and KMs based on your location

    I travel between UK and France a lot. I would help a lot if the Units could automatically switch based on the country you are currently in. I believe this would be helpful for people who travel between US and Canada too.

  17. MORE navigation options, in addition to shorter time or distance

    I would LOVE for waze to have multiple options for routes. For instance :
    Standard options:
    - shortest distance
    - shortest time
    Standard avoids :
    - avoid toll roads
    - avoid highways

    New ones:
    - least turns
    - least traffic lights ;

    New avoiding routes:
    - avoid construction routes
    - avoid one lane streets
    - avoid streets with traffic moving slower than

    All of these should be able to mix and match and specify further details. For instance it would be great if it showed option to list trips within X percent of time to shortest time trip. It can…

  18. Mph and metres for directions.

    It’s very simple. Two toggle options. To change the speed unit to mph for the speed limit but be able to keep the directions in metres for those shorter turnings and directions in town. In England we use mph and how many miles to but after that we commonly talk about metres. So I am asking for another option so that people can customise the speed limit alerts and the distance to alerts.

  20. Waze powered social speed alert standalone device for car with data built in

    Speed camera warning devices are always out of date and don’t warn of police sat by the road or mobile vans. I would like a standalone device connected to the internet and with an audio and I visual warning in a discreet package.
