It would be nice to have options for delivery vans, 2.5 tons up, some roads are unsuitable for us and some we are not allowed to enter,
It would be nice to have options for delivery vans, 3.5 tons up, some roads are unsuitable for us and some we are not allowed to enter, but the app takes us through them and if we are not vigilant enough because we trust the app we get tickets, some have access restricted and our vans can get damaged using such roads.

I would like to tap the ETA to iMessage my ETA to a preferred recipient (three buttons - most used, most recent, or from Contacts)
Tap the ETA button and a menu would pop-up with three buttons - 1. the recipient most frequently sent an ETA, 2. the recipient (different from 1.) most recently sent an ETA, and 3. Field that searches Contacts. Then iMessage the Wazer username, destination address, and ETA. Example: WazerUser1 will arrive at 531 17th Street, Milwaukee, WI at 10:25PM in 15 minutes. See you there!

Don’t just do better. Be the BEST!
You guys need to give up on trying to be Google and just join with Google. Your search function is sub par at best compared to Google’s. Your restaurant suggestions are always Waffle House, McDonalds and some 2000 mile away hole in the wall that serves Rocky Mountain Oysters for lunch special. Don’t get me started on your fuel search feature. I might as well just get ready to push when I run out of gas. The only changes that you have made to your app in the last five years are adding Spotify (poor integration IMO) and aesthetics.

Allow comments to be added to police reports (as it was before)
This use to be a standard feature. It should be added again. Stopped police vehicles tend to slow down traffic and actually create accidents. It is important to relay what is happening in the report (e.g. vehicular accident, speed trap, stopped car on shoulder, etc.) so as to help other Waze users navigate accordingly and to help protect other motorists.

Rank routes by least number of minutes in traffic
For a long drive, calculate "% of time spent in traffic" and "# of minutes spent in traffic" and include that as a criteria.
We just stared at 3 different routes for a 4+ hour drive that had varying lengths and amount of time in stop & go traffic. We would have liked to have selected easily "the one that makes the car move the most and has the least stop & go, so we don't get car sick and our children don't wake up."

You ought to change the name to "Uh-Oh, Error Calculating Route."
You ought to change the name to "Uh-Oh, Error Calculating Route." Since that's what shows up at least once and often twice about 65 percent of the time. It gets worse everyday. Would also be nice if the app would figure out where my house is, even though it has the address.

Include on-route traffic flow and incidents to "Your trip" screen and traffic delay to ETA.
Upon click on the ETA box on the bottom a "Your trip" screen pops up and shows route details. Please include traffic flow and incidents that lay on the route ahead (just like one can see it when the 3 alternative routes are presented. Also it would be great to show the traffic delay on the current route next to the ETA on the main map.

Hope Waze Adds 3D Maps
Hope Waze can add a 3D map view like Amap to make lane guidance clearer at complex junctions and highways. This would help drivers avoid choosing the wrong lane.
Since Google Maps is also introducing 3D maps, it would be great to see this in Waze too.

Removing C3PO
Please tell me how to remove the C3PO voice and revert to the original. This is really getting on my nerves. This is a lesson in how to screw up a great app. It should be a configuration option. Bad Google!!

For the love of God let us Edit (or at least View) the Home/Work address.
I just moved and set my home address. Now every time I need to remind myself of the actual address, it's not viewable in the app. It's completely gone. I've tried to text the address, and modify the address, email the address. The app completely hides the value in the Home and Work favorite. It's very frustrating not being able to see what's in those fields.

Change to Android Auto UI
Can the blue gradient that takes up 1/3 of my car's infotainment screen be removed from the Android Auto Waze UI? It makes it difficult to see the road ahead as it fades out into blue and doesn't utilize my full car screen. Kind of like the CarPlay UI. You can see the road so much further ahead on it.
Also a setting to use night theme or day all the time would be welcome too.

Android Auto parked location
On Android Auto, Google maps pops up a little box that you tick to save your parking location. Not ideal but it works. I would rather have it work automatically. But it's better than nothing. Which is what Waze has. Waze has no option on Android Auto to save a parking location. Automatic or otherwise. The Carplay version of Waze does this. Please implement.

Add places you want or need to visit, when you are near.
I am forgetful. It would be amazing to add places you should visit somtime. Like going to a special store or picking up something you bought. Or even jobs you need to do.
You could set a nearby limit, like when in aprox 3km away you get a popup of this place, do you want to visit this place on your route today?
You should be able to add vital information as phone numbers and links to items or places.

Differentiate entry and exit sounds
Please differentiate the sound for entering a danger area and existing. In the current version the sounds are the same and it necessitates looking at the screen to see what's happening.
If the "entering" sound were a rising tone and exiting were a falling tone this distraction to look at the screen would be avoided.4 votes -
Turn traffic, ability to report and to use in navigation
There must be an option to report traffic for a specific turn. The reason is that a given road may be moving well through an intersection, but specifically a left turn lane onto an intersecting road can be jammed. In such a case the navigator won't use that road to turn left and find another route.
As an example. Let's say I am driving on Main St and there are 3 intersecting roads coming up, Street 1, Street 2, and Street 3. My destination is at Street 2, where I need to turn left from Main St. Waze doesn't know…

Help with tutor on motorway
Hi, I use your software a lot. It would be very useful to have help on the motorway in areas where there is a tutor. Another note to be improved in my opinion, is the choice of roads, sometimes offers streets not very comfortable, narrow, where maybe one car can pass at a time, not to do maybe a few more kilometers. Thanks for what you do.

trip times with stops
It seems that some thing has been removed from your features. Until today, I have been able to enter a destination and then add a stop and be able to see what time I will arrive at both my intermediate stop as well as my final destination. It seems that the only information available to me now is the intermediate stop arrival time. This is not as helpful because I need to be able to get to my final destination by a certain time, and therefore plan my departure for both destinations based on that. Without that information, your app…
