Not automatically removing reports.
I have made multiple lane closure, construction and more reports over the same area daily for weeks/months. They keep getting removed by waze after a few hours even though they are still there. Does it actually hurt anything to wait until someone selects not there instead of removing because no one selects still there? Construction rarely takes hours, more like weeks. Let the report stay until someone says its no longer there. I know some drivers that use waze and never report. I am getting to the point that I wont make these reports anymore its annoying. I know one…

Add 'stop nav' main button
When selecting 'back' the app offers only 'cancel' or 'shutdown'. I often want to stop navigation, select another destination, select another route. Selecting 'shutdown' just bails out of the app completely! It needs 'stop nav' in addition to cancel & shutdown.

Warn oncoming traffic for ALL events
We cannot warn the oncoming users for all of the issues they can meet on the road.. Speed checks it's ok, but not the traffic jams or for the cars that have to stop on the side of the road for instance...

GPS not found regularly.
Multiple updates, different iPhones and IOS’s and different cars… all regularly fail to show GPS. Confirm setting and toggling connection on Waze helps sometimes and it sometimes requires reboot and sometimes that doesn’t fix it. Apple Maps works unfortunately, so I know I have connection and gps works.

Display two next crossroad turns
App should display second next turn, not just first. In my area there are multiple crossroads within 10-15 m next to another, and app do not have time to display or spoke next one, which result in going wrong way.
In UI, it would be smaller slightly above "first" next turn.

Save ride statistics
It will be wonderful if i can see at the end of my ride - few statistics (and save them if i want). e.g. - "Start at 15:00, arrived at 16:45, one stop of 24 minutes include". or the speedometer graph if possible.

How great would it be to turn on your Waze and go visit a lemonade stand?
I would like to be able to report the location and also search/find local lemonade stands on my maps. I make it a rule that I NEVER pass one without stopping. (Hint: it's not the product, it's the service that makes you happy).

switch car types in iOS
Hi, I’m using Waze both with my private car and with my motorcycle.
In Israel, the vehicle type actually affects the routing itself (motorcycles can legally use different lanes and routes), so switching quickly is very important.
Right now, every time I want to switch the vehicle type, I need to go deep into the Settings → Navigation menu, and it takes multiple taps.Is it possible to add a faster way to switch vehicle type?
For example:
• a quick toggle button on the main screen
• a Siri Shortcut / Shortcuts action
• or a URL scheme parameter…2 votes -

Go button or the "ready to go" screen between different stretches with stop points
I was using a Waze on a two-way path. When it arrived at the end of the first stretch, the application soon began the journey for the second stretch. I suggest having a go button or the "ready to go" screen between different stretches with stop points. The app could expect me to have something to do before continuing travel. This function could be optionally configured to show or not in the settings.

Fix Nav/Add a stop -
When I add a stop (iPhone 4s) The navigation usually gets "stuck" in "proceed to the highlighted route" and updates sporadically, if at all. The car icon tracks properly on the map, but the text is frozen. This happens most of the time I use "Add a stop".

New isn't better
I don't mind the update with the interface change but things like reporting a stopped car or accident on the "other side" was useful. Now you can only do that with pigs. The new bubble format takes longer than the old style to pop up.
I tell people about your app all the time but these changes are disappointing.2 votes -
Look up and add a stop on planned route for coffee, food or gas.

Finding the nearest safe place to stop
Please add a feature that allows the user to find the nearest safe place to stop. Sometimes you need to make an emergency stop but prefer to keep driving a few minutes if there is a safer place to stop, like a gas station or a wide safety margin. Finding a safer place to stop could save a life.

x Prediction Feature
A prediction feature. Example: Around 9:00 every Friday in the past 2 months traffic has been stopped on a stretch of road. Waze could put out an alert that says "Based on the past month's traffic use this route could be slow" even if no one has reported. Especially helpfully for being aware of authorities who tend to monitor traffic in the same locations.

Simple things that make drives easier
I’ve found that a few small habits really change how smooth a trip feels. I usually give myself a little extra time before heading out, especially on weekends, and it makes a big difference. I also try to check any planned stops ahead of time instead of scrambling to add them while I’m on the road.
Another thing I rely on is the user reports in Waze. They’re often more helpful than just waiting for the app to reroute. And honestly, if I’m heading somewhere new or don’t want the stress, I’ll just book a ride. When I went to…
