1. Contact Sync & Automatic Call Trigger Based on Destination Arrival

   Feature Proposal for Waze
   Contact Sync & Automatic Call Trigger Based on Destination Arrival
   Background & Problem
   Many drivers frequently navigate to destinations that are the home addresses of people they know (friends, family members, clients). Upon arrival, drivers often need to:
   Search for the contact on their phone
   Manually place a call
   Or send a message to notify arrival
   These actions are often performed while driving or during short stops and lead to:
   Dangerous distractions
   Unnecessary time loss
   A fragmented arrival experience within the navigation flow
   Proposed Solution
   A built-in Waze feature that enables smart synchronization between contacts and their home addresses, allowing automatic calling upon arrival at the destination.
   How It Works
   Users opt in to sync selected phone contacts with Waze.
   For each contact, the user can define:
   A home address or fixed location
   Whether automatic calling should be enabled
   When navigating to that address:
   Waze recognizes the destination as a contact’s residence
   The driver preselects a call timing option:
   1 / 2 / 5 minutes before arrival or at arrival
   The call is triggered automatically, with no need to interact with the phone.
   User Value
   Saves time and reduces friction at arrival
   Seamless, intuitive arrival experience
   Eliminates the need to handle the phone
   Solves a common daily use case (“I’m here”, “I’ve arrived”)
   Road Safety Impact
   Reduces manual phone usage while driving
   Aligns directly with Waze’s safety-first values
   Encourages focused, distraction-free driving
   Business Value for Waze
   Improved user experience and engagement
   Strong differentiation from other navigation apps
   Positions Waze as a smart driving assistant, not just a navigation tool
   Feature can be expanded into premium or personalized experiences
   Future Extensions
   Automatic message instead of a call (user choice)
   “Arriving in X minutes” notifications
   Work / client-based destinations
   Calendar integration (meetings at private addresses)
   Time-based or user-defined automation controls
   Summary
   This feature addresses a real, everyday driver need with a simple and intuitive solution.
   It naturally connects navigation, communication, and safety — strengthening Waze’s role as a comprehensive, intelligent driving platform rather than solely a route guidance app.

2. Navigation Instructions

   Can you change or have us the option for navigation instructions to say “ At the 2nd Intersection, turn right” “At the Stop, turn left” etc. instead of distances? Thnx :))

3. Railroad arms down

   It would be nice to know when trains are stopped and the rails are down. That way you could take an alternate route.

4. Search while connected to android auto

   You have got to make it possible to voice search while driving. I use waze with my business and when I get a call I often have to change my destination or add a stop. I can't do that with waze without stopping. I legit added a manual power disconnect for my radio so I can turn my radio OFF which automatically disconnects android auto. Then I search in my phone, then I turn the radio back ON to get the new destination or stop in the waze app... Now how stupid and distracting is that? How is that safer? Just make voice searching available like google maps. This is a huge stupid hole in your app.

   Posibility to confirm that other person than driver is using android auto on car's display At android auto. Now it won't let either a passenger to use navigation as it assumes that driver is using it.

   Problem is also that google assistant (voice control is working fine in waze app but not in android auto.

   So if I connect phone to car it doesn't understand my english but if I use waze on phone without connection to car it understands my english well.
   This causes that I need to stop or use phone while driving instead of more safety using by voice controlling of waze via android auto.

6. WAZE navigation system could be adapted to the nation's railroad netword where it could become a new-technology Positive Train Control.

   Railroad Safety: a Ten Billion Dollar Boondoggle
   Carl E. Nash, Ph.D.
   Derailments and collisions between trains are spectacular. Their economic and environmental consequences are considerable and they kill and injure people. In response, over the past forty years, pressed by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and Congress the railroads have been implementing Positive Train Control (PTC) systems to reduce the potential for these crashes.
   Actually, U.S. railroads are quite safe for passengers. An average of only 5 people die in train crashes each year: slightly more than are killed in motor vehicle crashes in an hour. The number of serious injuries among train occupants is similarly low. On the other hand, nearly 700 “trespassers” die annually after being struck by trains while on or near railroad tracks and about 100 more are killed in vehicles struck by trains at grade crossings. These casualties are a consequence of two challenges: trains cannot be stopped quickly and it is difficult to keep people away from railroad tracks. PTC will do nothing for those struck by moving trains.
   The nation’s railroads and the FRA have spent about $10 billion on a variety of PTC systems and will apparently spend a few billion more to complete them. According to the FRA: “PTC systems are integrated command, control, communications, and information systems designed to prevent train accidents by controlling train movements with safety, security, precision, and efficiency.”
   Railroad transportation in the U.S. matured a century ago. Train dispatch, safety, maintenance, and such were mostly developed in the 20th century. More recent technologies are mostly used to provide an electronic substitute or enhancement of what had been done by hand. Modern communications are generally used as a substitute for the telegraph or telephones. It is an important, but hoary industry in desperate need of a 21st Century overhaul.
   Road users have the advantage of well-developed, real time, satellite-based navigation systems. There is no such unified system for railroads. Instead, the railroads are wasting their and the government’s money on ten duplicative, but not particularly compatible PTC systems that require very large numbers of expensive, high maintenance, and probably unreliable trackside sensors to monitor the position and speed of train sets. Since railroads regularly use each other’s’ tracks, this duplication is bizarre. Implementation of PTC has been delayed for years, at least in part because of the cost to complete it.
   
   The WAZE/Google navigation system provides not only information on where roads go, which can be used for trip planning, it also monitors traffic to show what the most rapid route is likely to be. It does this by monitoring, through satellite communications, the behavior of vehicles using this navigation system to determine areas of road congestion or other problems.
   
   Adapting this system to railroads would be relatively easy. WAZE/Google could substitute a map of the rail network for the road network and show the appropriate speed limit on all stretches of track as well as switch positions. This would be used to warn engineers if they are operating in a dangerous manner. In the event that an engineer ignores this warning, the receiver in the locomotive could automatically apply the train’s brakes.
   
   As with the highway system the positions and speeds all locomotives using the system, as determined using GPS, along with the positions of all switches in the system and the location of maintenance operations, could be sent through satellite to a central control where it would be monitored to determine the potential collision between trains.
   There are roughly 27,000 locomotives, some thousands of additional train sets not pulled by locomotives, and 140,000 miles of track in the United States. The cost of installing equipment to send and receive signals, for navigation, and for computer-based automatic braking would be less than $5,000 per locomotive and per switch for a total less than three hundred million dollars. (The cost of a real-time navigation system, along with automatic braking is less than $1000 per motor vehicle.) Software for adapting the highway navigation system to PTC and establishing a central control to warn of collisions would cost less than $100 million. Thus, an estimate of well under a billion dollars for all of the PTC hardware and software to implement a new, navigation-based PTC system seems reasonable. This is considerably less than the cost of completing the current PTC systems and could be paid by a consortium of railroads. If the will were there, it should not take more than about a year to implement this new system.
   A modern PTC could also become a basis for a more modern approach to railroad scheduling and management that could reduce costs and ensure more efficient use of the rail network. It could replace the current, antiquated, inefficient block system for regulating the use of rails. Because of industry competition and anti-trust considerations, it may require Congressional action to force national cooperation in establishing a unified 21st Century PTC system.
   The current approach to railroad safety is out of date and makes little sense. It lacks a rational connection with the reality of how most people are killed and injured in connection with railroads and the availability of effective technology. It results in ridiculous spending on what, at least in terms of human losses, is a relatively minor problem.
   PTC based on the technologies used for road navigation could substantially reduce human, equipment, and other losses from collisions and derailments. These savings would be sufficient to pay for the 21st century system based on the Google navigation system. It would also be an excellent business opportunity for WAZE/Google. The fact that billions have already been invested in PTC is irrelevant to the question of how the railroads should proceed with PTC. It must abandon the current wasteful development and start with a fresh approach as outlined herein.

7. Stop trying to be right and start trying to be helpful.

   Re: my report to you yesterday. On Santa Fe, there are 2 signs for Hampton Ave. Hampton Ave South Exit or Hampton Ave North Exit. To tell me to take Hampton Ave West because that is the name of the road is just not helpful.

8. Waypoints

   Would be great to have the option of refining a route by inputting waypoints. It is noted that there is an ability to input a single 'stop' but the time to that stop is displayed rather than the time to the destination - you need to tap the bottom bar periodically to check your destination ETA. So please include an option to input waypoints and to have the final desti ETA permanently displayed

9. multiple ideas

   • when navigating, esp. for Uber, Waze takes me to alleys for the destination address, not to the actual street
   • why doesn't Waze show one way street direction with arrows on map?
   • is there a way to stop directing me to turn left onto/cross a busy street with no stop signs or lights?
   • can the step by step directions show the destination address as well as the checkered flag?
   • show ahead of time which lane to be in for all off-ramps on highways

10. ALERTA DE RADARES EM FUNCIONAMENTO NOTURNO. LIGADO-DESLIGADO ALERT OF RADARS IN NIGHT WORKING. ON OFF

    Prezados Especialistas WAZE,

    Venho através desta, levantar uma situação que aflige a todos os motoristras brasileiros e se aplica consequentemente a todos os usuários do nosso tão querido WAZE.

    Acabo de receber uma multa em que meu veiculo foi fotografado após avançar um sinal às 01h59min em rua do Rio de Janeiro.

    Em nota, as autoridades policiais recomendam a prática de avançar o sinal à noite já que o Estado se confessa incapaz de garantir a segurança do cidadão no horário noturno. Por meio disso, acreditava que os fotossensores não multassem por avanço de sinal à noite em determinado horário.

    Assim, faço o seguinte questionamento: Devemos respeitar os sinais de trânsito na noite/madrugada violentas do Rio de Janeiro? Não todos, só alguns? Quais?

    Afirmo pessoalmente que a este horário eu não paro em semáforo nem que o presidente esteja ao meu lado parado! No entanto, o código de trânsito é espresso que a sinalização deve ser seguida.

    Pela nossa constituição, em suas cláusulas pétreas (paste da constituição que nada pode transgredir impune) lhe garante em seu artigo 5 o direito a vida, o que na hora da infração encontrava-se em eminente risco devido ao horário e precedentes de criminalidade impune na cidade;

    Está também inserido no Código Penal a excludente de ilicitude chamada " ESTADO DE NECESSIDADE" perfeitamente cabível aqui no Rio onde a violência ocorre a todo momento.

    Nas vias administrativas, a CTB não acata tal argumento e as companhias de transito costumam ser bastantes intrasigentes, onde o jeito mesmo é partir para o judiciário, sob pena de se juntar 20 pontos na CNH.Não existe sensibilidade política nem administrativa para dispensarem as multas no período noturno; o objetivo é simplesmente arrecadar sem a mínima consideração ao ser humano que já se vê arrochado com a carga tributária maior do mundo.

    Em contrapartida, outro ponto que deve ser levantado é que, existem excessões de horário no CTB quanto a sinalização em pontos estratégicos na cidade do Rio de Janeiro como tambem em todas as cidades brasileiras.

    Então, através deste mesmo ponto, percebo a INCONTESTÁVEL necessidade de auxilio junto ao WAZE para que nós motoristas possamos encontrar um equilibrio comum e obtermos uma ferramenta PODEROSA em favor de acatarmos as legislações de transito sem nos colocarmos em constantes riscos desnecessários.

    SERIA POSSÍVEL PARA O WAZE APLICAR UMA OPÇÃO DE FERRAMENTA DE INFORMAÇÃO DE ALERTA NA ROTA ONDE, O RADAR SEMAFORICO INDICADO NO PERCUSO SE APRESENTE ATIVO OU DESLIGADO MEDIANTE AS INFORMAÇÕES DO CTB?

    ACREDITO QUE UMA OPÇÃO LEMBRETE TÃO EFICIENTE COMO "LIGAR FAROIS" OU TANTOS OUTROS ALERTAS JÁ DISPONÍVEIS PODERIAM RESOLVER O CASO APRESENTADO OU MINIMIZÁ-LO BASTANTE.

    POIS COM ESTE ALERTA PODEREMOS REAVALIAR NOSSO GRAU E CONDIÇÕES DE RISCO JUNTO AO LOCAL E PROSSEGUIR O TRAJETO COM MAIS EFICIENCIA E SEGURANÇA.

    Realmente me sinto desconfortável neste assunto porque procuro me pautar por princípios éticos e também sou crítico do jeitinho brasildeiro concordando na legitimidade do comprimento da Lei, no entanto, uma pessoa que fique numa rua deserta à meia noite ou às 4 da manhã esperando o sinal abrir é também antiético no sentido que coloca em risco desnecessário a vida.

    Em meio de facilitar que estas informações relativas à quais radares e seus respectivos horários constam determinados na CTB do Rio de Janeiro, segue um link com uma lista atualizada dos mesmos para que esta ferramenta de alerta seja o quanto antes disponibilizada, como também me prontifico a ajudar no que for necessário.

    https://m.extra.globo.com/noticias/rio/2017/03/09/59-radarespdf/binary/radares.pdf

    A todos, o meu muitissimo obrigado e aguardo breve retorno.

    Abraços.

    Wesley Ruiz Lopes.

    Dear WAZE Experts,

    I come across this, raise a situation that afflicts all Brazilian motorists and applies accordingly to all users of our beloved WAZE.

    I have just received a fine on which my vehicle was photographed after a signal at 1:39 am on the street in Rio de Janeiro.

    In a note, police authorities recommend the practice of advancing the signal at night as the state confesses unable to ensure the safety of the citizen at night time. Accordingly, he believed that the photosensors would not charge by signal advance at night at a certain time.

    So, I ask the following question: Should we respect the traffic signs in the violent night / dawn of Rio de Janeiro? Not all, just a few? Which are?

    I personally say that at this time I do not stop at traffic lights or that the president is standing beside me! However, the traffic code is espresso that signage must be followed.

    By its constitution, in its stony clauses (paste of the constitution that nothing can transgress unpunished) guarantees in its article 5 the right to life, which at the time of the infraction was in imminent risk due to the schedule and precedents of impunity crime in the City;

    Also included in the Penal Code is the exclusion of illegality called "STATE OF NEED" perfectly applicable here in Rio where violence occurs at all times.

    On administrative routes, the CTB does not accept such an argument and the transit companies tend to be quite intrasigentes, where the way is to leave for the judiciary, failing to join 20 points in the CNH. There is no political or administrative sensitivity to waive the fines In the nocturnal period; The goal is simply to collect without the slightest regard for the human being who already finds himself burdened with the greatest tax burden in the world.

    On the other hand, another point that must be raised is that there are exceptions of time in the CTB as the signage in strategic points in the city of Rio de Janeiro as in all Brazilian cities.

    Then, through this same point, I perceive the INCONTESTABLE need for assistance with the WAZE so that we drivers can find a common balance and obtain a POWERFUL tool in favor of complying with the traffic laws without putting ourselves in unnecessary constant risks.

    IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE FOR WAZE TO APPLY AN ALERT INFORMATION TOOL OPTION ON THE ROUTE WHERE THE SEMAPHHORIC RADAR INDICATED IN THE PICKUP IS PRESENTED OR DISABLED THROUGH THE CTB INFORMATION?

    I BELIEVE THAT AN OPTION TO REMEMBER AS EFFICIENT AS "CONNECTING LIGHTHOUSES" OR MANY OTHER ALERTS AVAILABLE NOW COULD RESOLVE THE CASE PRESENTED OR MINIMIZE IT ENOUGH.

    FOR THIS ALERT, WE WILL BE ABLE TO RANGE OUR DEGREE AND RISK CONDITIONS NEAR THE LOCAL AND PURSUE THE PATH WITH MORE EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY.

    I really feel uncomfortable in this matter because I try to be guided by ethical principles and I am also critical of the Brazilian way of agreeing on the legitimacy of the length of the Law, however, a person who stays on a deserted street at midnight or at 4 in the morning waiting for the sign to open Is also unethical in the sense that it puts unnecessary risk to life.

    In order to facilitate that this information regarding which radars and their respective schedules are determined in the CTB of Rio de Janeiro, I am enclosing an updated list of them so that this alert tool is available as soon as possible, Help where necessary.

    To all, my very many thanks and I await a brief return.

    Hugs.

11. Traking travel

    When phone connect to car , autostart Waze, saving address During travel record position on map, with speed. When stop car shut down save position and stop waze. Result : map of trip can be available, including road used and speed top and average. Trafic condition can be automatic for or wazers because all cars speed are record and compared with speed limit of roads (if under limit mean trafic, difference in percentage show the trafic density). Look to have one idea Vezma App. Make what I suggest but don't do all that Vaze offer.

12. Inform about traffic slow downs before the exit instead of after you passed an exit and the next one is in the slowdown or stopped traffi.

    On my trip home from the eclipse I was notified just after passing an open exit that there was a traffic slowdown. I almost turned up the exit ramp, but decided that continuing would be safer NOT. NEXT time that happens I will most likely break that law.

13. Improve!!

    The app was amazing for the time 4 years ago... Stop taking all the data and using it for gmaps and not reciprocating by putting some money into map control and manipulation. The finger pinch zoom is horibble to put it lightly! It seems from a user's point of view that the relationship between Google and Waze is like a child who eats all of the frosting off a cupcake and leaves the rest for his dad to eat. Ya it will fill him up but looks like shit and doesn't taste as good as it could!
    Waze people get your s$!t together and don't let Google take all the good features and not improve the app...

14. Car play

    It would be better if Waze could be joined manually and disconnected manually it would save on battery usage and stop the phone getting hot also prolonging the battery life.

15. View map on mobile to select point on map, law enforcement

    Similar to Google Maps interface, in which I can pin a point on the mobile app and start navigation on Android Auto. I frequently use Waze to safely navigate to reported accidents, debris and disabled vehicles. Waze reports are significantly more location-accurate than my dispatcher saying "Respond to the area of Exit 45 for a crash." Before the last update, I could force stop Waze on my phone, reopen the app to the map, pin a location next to the incident and start navigation, then reopen the app on Android Auto to navigate. With the latest update, I can no longer force close Waze to view the map. It automatically starts up in 'Where To?'

    Great thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Please check this link, to learn more on how to navigate from a different start point.

    Hope you like it!

16. Sorry if there's a post for this already that I can't find but is there a way to prevent/stop/disable banner notifications from OTHER apps w

    Disable all iPhone notifications while using waze to drive, iPhone notifications are distracting while driving and the driver is sometimes forced to remove the iPhone notifications while they are driving which is very unsafe

18. Add vehicle on road ahead (currently only offers shoulder option)

    Knowing if a vehicle is stopped on the road or on the shoulder is critical. This information could be life-saving. We recommend updating your navigation app to include this feature.

19. Stopping the app. Is still difficult. It needs to be a big easy to see END ROUTE. To stop the app. And be able to enter something else

    A big easy to see “End Route “button that would take you right back to where you can enter in a new destination.

20. I would like to have the facility to edit (e.g. add an extra, en route stop) a saved future drive!

    I like to plan my journeys, and view alternative routes ahead of time, using Waze. At present it seems that, despite having “saved” a planned drive, the only way to edit your route, is to start all over again from scratch, incorporating your desired change(s) as you go through the process. For a substantial, multi-stop route, that 'is' 'a' 'pain'!
