Allow us to create customizable single press shortcut button for hazard reporting etc.
Too many steps to press while driving to report hazard etc can be dangerous. Why not allow users to create a customizable single press shortcut button for reporting car on shoulder or object on road instead of multiple steps of pressing buttons to get to the final issue. ie. not needing to press Hazard and then having to search the type of hazard in the small phone screen while driving. A single shortcut would be much easier. The most commonly used report for me is car on shoulder so why not just allow me to create that single shortcut.

disable "not there" for abusers or non-contributers
For those who harass police sighting users of waze by FALSELY clicking "not there" the button clicking privilege ought be revoked until they are other than counterproductive
identify them by their sole use of police related report by not-thefe and entire lack of contributing reports
Also detect stationary officers who not-there themselves

Volume glitch
The iPhone volume is very glitchy. When my phone is connected to my Bluetooth in my car, the sound plays sporadically. No sound sometimes. Then I shut Waze off and restart, and sometimes the sound returns. Sometimes not. Have to do a # of restarts.

Waze voice commands is useless under Android Auto
I Would like waze to develop a feature to let me decide if I want to use Google Assistant under Waze Android Auto or not. When I'm looking for an address by voice comand, Google Assistant is always coming first and in most of the cases is handing up to waze a wrong address. The voice search from waze is performing far a way much better then Google assistant but it's useless if can't be used as default under Android Auto.
I'm having a phone with Android 11 installed.15 votes -
Personal features layer
Adding map features requires approval/access/high enough map editor level.
I suggest adding support for a 'personal' layer in Waze.
On that, everybody can add anything, change anything, without restrictions, but will only show for you (your account / the Waze on your phone / ...)From the Waze perspective, that allows you to mine for information harder to get, to be potentially shown on a 'Community' layer or even the main map (after maybe some extra vetting)
For example, you can mine all the 'Personal' layers for things by looking for features that multiple people, independent of each other, add…

Add Multitouch Support for Waze on CarPlay (iOS 26)
Starting with iOS 26, Apple officially added multitouch support for CarPlay apps (confirmed on Apple’s developer website).
However, Waze still doesn’t support multitouch gestures such as pinch-to-zoom — which makes map navigation less intuitive and even unsafe while driving.Currently, zooming in or out requires multiple taps, forcing drivers to take their eyes off the road.
This is not only inconvenient but also reduces overall safety.It’s especially surprising because:
On Android Auto, Google Maps already supports multitouch, and it works great — smooth, natural, and safe.
Even in the Waze mobile app (without CarPlay), when the phone is mounted…

Ability to view "Navigation History" on desktop website
Ability to view "Navigation History" on desktop website, I can only do this on mobile by going to Settings > Privacy >Navigation History.
I would like to be able to do this on the desktop website as well as it would make it easier whenever I track my mileage for expenses to be able to use the same data off of the desktop website having to do everything from my phone.

Create shortcut to go to location and alert user of journey (replicate Glympse functionality)
I have noticed that Waze now offers location sharing. I would like for it to completely replace my need for running Glympse in tandem. Ideally, if I could have a shortcut icon on my phone home screen that started navigation to "Home", and shared my location with my wife, this would be great. Many thanks.

No alerting caps
Waze does not alert at all reported fixed phone / police cameras because of caps on alerts on regularly travelled roads exposing drivers who forget about cameras to fines. This is confirmed by by WAZE's team: "This means that you may not get alerted about everything on your route". There is no option to set to 'always alert'. Please add the option of full and reduced alerting.

Allow a longer delay before voice prompts
When using my iPhone with bluetooth handsfree kit, I miss the first word of each prompt while the kit detects bluetooth audio and mutes my radio in the car. Please increase delay between starting the announcement (or add a selectable option to do so) to overcome this problem.

Add option to add sound decibel readers
NYC specifically in the 5 boroughs of new york as well as a couple of other states started a program for sound decibel readers to be installed through out the city in other words noise cameras for cars and motorcycles. NYC has always been a loud place so this is un necessary. It is also not right towards cars that come from the factory stock such as scat pack chargers, hellcats, mustangs, harley davidson motorcycles, sports bikes, As well as many super cars. The 1st noise violation is a insane price of approximately $800 the 2nd is approximately $1600…

For the computer website, add the option of including the day of trip and time to arrive (Not the time to leave) just like the phone app.
For the computer website, add the option of including the day of trip and time to arrive (Not the time to leave) just like the phone app. It's surprising you didn't build this in originally.

Add "virtual friends" with his nickname
Sometimes we meet cool people on the waze forum but we prefer not to exchange Facebook account, phone numbers.
It would be cool to add them to share bip bip, message, classification and to compete with.
With the last upgraded there was phone numbers, Facebook account but I think there is a lack of that!4 votes -
Mute specific notifications at specific locations
I want to know about cars on shoulder, hazards on road etc but I want to be be able to mute specific alerts by location : I know there is a speed camera and pot holes on my normal route and want to mute those but not mute all other items for same items on the rest of my drive. Shouldn’t be an all or nothing alert system. Need a MUTE THIS NOTIFICATION FOR THIS LOCATION ONLY option.

I don't like the new waze. Can't stop navigation after it starts.
I don't like the NEW Waze. Can't stop navigation once it starts unless I close the app completely. Make it bigger on the iphone so I can leave my phone on the dash while driving.

Accident alert
If something happened to a driver and it was an accident, Waze should detect the drastic "Stop" of the driver and after that if in th next 5-10 second no movements are done, should pop up a message asking the driver if he was in an accident, if the driver doesn't answer in 20-25 second, the "Alert" should appear on the map alerting the near user of Waze. What do you think?

Pausing Waze when there's an incoming call.
When someone calls, Waze keeps saying the navigation instructions, and therefore making it impossible to hear the person you're talking to!
It should be possible to automatically pause it everytime the phone gets calls.4 votes -
Please keep arrival time on screen during alerts.
Please keep arrival time on screen when alert pops up while driving. Whenever I get speed, red light camera alerts, the arriving time disappears and comes back only after alert goes away.
There is enough room in car play screen for both or make the alert smaller please. I would like to see, arrival time and remaining time left at all times.
Thank you very much.
I love Waze. Keep doing great job and happy holidays!!!!4 votes -
Change speed limit during raod works
Being able to change a road/street max speed/speed limit during road works
ex : road works for 1 month, speed limit changed from 70 kmh to 50 kmh during that time and waze doesn't "beep" when you exceed it... this is problematic when there's a mobile radar.5 votes
