DRIVER SPEED LIMITATION INPUT FOR ITINERARY CALCULATIONS
I think it would be a more than good idea to have the option of telling WAZE that one doesn't want to drive faster than 90km/h.
For instance, i drive a camping car, which hardly reaches 100km/h and would like Waze to calculate itineraries taking this into account. Can that be fastly implemented ?29 votes -
Change the route color from purple to green, yellow or red, depending on how recently the route has been 'swept' by another Wazer.
Change the route color from purple to green, yellow or red, depending on how recently the route has been 'swept' by another Wazer: Green = route traversed by another Wazer no longer than 2 minutes ago; yellow = 2 to 5 minutes; red = no Wazer traffic within the last 5 minutes.

Realistic Detailed Vehicles
Waze has been around long enough now, how about realistic & more detailed vehicles, instead of the green car, silver car, blah, blah, blah. Why isn't there a pickup truck, Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro, Dodge, Toyota, etc? Realistic & detailed vehicles please!

Crossing major intersections
Los Angeles - When crossing major streets such as Sunset Blvd, Wilshire Blvd or La Cienega Blvd, please guide us to an intersection protected by a traffic signal. While the smaller streets are great for avoiding traffic, once we reach a major thoroughfare, we simply can't get across without a green light! Thanks, Waze!

Add quick text to road reports
Typing while driving is dangerous. However, don't you often want to add more information to a road report? Do you go ahead and type that message illegally or do you simply submit something that you know is an incomplete, ambiguous report. What if you had the option to choose from a list of common stock text modifiers to help with your reporting? What if it was possible to edit these to your specifications?
29 votesYou can use voice typing for comments in a report.

Heated Rivalry's Ilya Rozanov & Shane Hollander as Voice Options
As popular as Heated Rivalry has become, I think it would be AMAZING if you were to get Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams to record navigation voices as Ilya and Shane. AND I would happily pay to keep those voices as permanent options, like how you can buy ringtones.

Simplify removing a destination from drive history
Sometimes you need to remove a place from drive history and search again before getting an updated pin for routing.
Per a thread in Discuss, sometimes you have to remove navigation history from your Privacy settings to get rid of all history of a place.
Removing a destination from drive history should remove it from the app completely in one step. You shouldn’t have to navigate through settings to Privacy then Recent locations to remove it.
"Drive suggestions logic is handled by a server, not by a mobile device. Once the server saved the location name (before changing it in WME) it remained and was not refreshed after the change.
Deleting recent drives from mobile client is mostly to declutter the view, and they still remain in our servers and in privacy Settings>Privacy>Navigation history (they are however also removed from Settings>Privacy>Recent locations).
Deleting navigation history from settings deletes all the drives, from mobile client and from our servers. In such case, suggestions (from the server) would be deleted as well and then navigating to the same place couple more times would trigger “fresh” suggestion with the correct name taken from the WME."

Allow reporting of New Incidents while an Alert is active (Android Auto)
When using Waze on Android Auto, if an active alert (e.g., speed camera, crash, lane closure) is currently displayed on the screen, the button to report a new incident becomes inaccessible or disappears.
To submit a new report, the driver is currently forced to first accept or close the existing alert. This is highly impractical and potentially unsafe while driving.This limitation prevents users from easily reporting multiple, co-located events (like a lane closure and a crash) in densely populated areas where multiple things often happen near each other.
I suggest that the Report Button should remain visible and accessible on the Android Auto interface, even when another alert or warning is being displayed.
This would allow drivers to immediately report the event they see without needing to interact with the current alert first. The Waze platform can later handle the filtering or merging of similar reports to prevent duplication.

מצב 'משאית' בהגדרות פרטי רכב
צריך שיהיה בהגדרות פרטי רכב מצב משאית שאז האפליקציה לא תפנה לרחובות קטנים מאוד, ולא למתחת גשרים נמוכים לפי הגדרת גובה המשאית וגם לא לרחובות שאין כניסה למשאית, וגם איסור פרסה למשאית

State line
When crossing into a different state it would be nice to receive an audible alert and/or a pop up notification that you have crossed into a new state like Google maps does. When on a long road trip sometimes we don’t know what state we have crossed into and it would be helpful to get notified.

Use Traffic Light as Reference to Turn
Tell users where to make a turn such as "at the light" or "the next light" like Apple Maps. This is better than suggesting to turn in # of miles.

Add option allowing your URs to be posted under your username (not anonymoulsy)
It has been said numerous time that due to private data protections, URs are always posted anonymously.
However, many editors use the UR system as a mean to "take notes" of problems during a trip, and then will correct deal with those UR when on WME after the trip.
However, those URs are always marked as anonymous on WME and other editors often start to reply those UR not knowing that those were done by other fellow editors. This leads to a lost of time, since those UR should be considered as "already watched by another editor".
The proposition is therefore to give the app user the option (which by default is not activated) to post UR un-anonymously, which will make the UR to appear in WME under its own username, and therefore help other editors to know that this UR comes from another editor.
This option will not go against private protection as it would only be activated by the user himself, if he wants to.

Boat trailer option
Please add an option for towing a trailer. I'll be towing a 23' boat from DC to ME in August. Generally this can only go on interstates and roads without height restrictions. I know from past drives that Waze will try to take us on the Merritt or Taconic parkways where trailers are not allowed and clearance is low

Prevent Constant Navigation pop-up while using other CarPlay apps.
I drive a Mazda CX-5 and whilst the car is in motion the CarPlay touchscreen is disabled and I interact with the interface using a wheel and buttons to move the focus and activate controls.
When using Waze to navigate and switching to music or Spotify or another app Waze will pop up notifications for alerts or upcoming navigation events.
When forced to use the wheel to control the interface this pop up is extremely annoying and interferes with controlling the CarPlay interface. It is so intrusive that I will be navigating songs etc and when I click to activate a song or app feature, the Waze pop up has reappeared and instead of clicking the item I want it takes me back to Waze. Other navigation apps like Apple Maps show the pop up but when I move the wheel the pop up goes away and doesn’t come back allowing me to interact with the other app as normal. Waze keeps bringing the pop up back constantly resulting in making use of the other app nearly impossible.
This small issue caused me so much grief that I found using Waze to navigate made me angry while driving so I stopped using Waze for over 6 months. When I tried Waze again after this time it made me realise that I had been calm while driving and when I used Waze I immediately became an angry driver.
Please recognise when a user has dismissed the pop up by moving focus and stop this pop up from constantly reoccurring and preventing normal interaction with other apps as I do not wish to share the road with Waze angry drivers for such a small but infuriating interface issue.
