Tokens
Is it possible to bring back "WazeHaunted" and the Fall and Christmas tokens for points? Those were fun times finding them on the maps!!

Avoid a specific road
I've seen a number of posts regarding this, and myself have wanted this on various occasions for a number of different reasons. The alternatives (avoid highway, avoid toll, avoid dirt) are useful in many cases, but there are also many cases where they simply don't serve the actual need.
For example, this reddit post (https://www.reddit.com/r/waze/comments/6vfd6m/can_i_stop_waze_from_rerouting_or_select_a/) is from a user that wants to specifically avoid the Capital Beltway (I-495). Not because it's a highway, and not because of a perceived inability for Waze to determine traffic, but just as a personal preference. As another example, sometimes when driving through…

Traffic lights navigation
Mostly in cities, sometimes I'm used to get navigation guidance from people, telling me to "turn right at the 3rd traffic light ahead" or "turn left at the next junction ahead". I think such navigation method - by counting road & infrastructure elements, rather than calculating distance - could be useful and preferable for some people. It may require initially mapping all these road elements in order to enable it... I believe its worthwhile :)

Link address from other apps
Most functional Waze yet! Navigation seems spot on and not obtrusive like Google's offering. Main thing is Waze is really accurate! Google Maps loses its way and gets me lost! Like the fresh look of Waze. Loads really fast on Note 4 Marshmallow. Love the send ETA so people I choose can monitor my drive in real time!
Few wish list items and believe me, not trying to turn Waze into Google Maps! So just the essentials..
Could use lane assist.
Need to get links from Yelp, Google Now, and other websites to share the actual destination not unknown…

Hybrid Zoom Mode
Add a third option to the zoom choices. A hybrid mode that uses the closer of the speed or distance zoom. This would allow for the map to zoom in as you approach your next turn at highway speeds and also zoom into your location in slow traffic to show possible alternate routes, while otherwise staying zoomed out.

Extra plaatsen toevoegen
Het zou handig zijn om extra plaatsen toe te voegen bij 'plan een rit' waarbij men met de volgorde kan schuiven.

Dear all,
I'm desperate for an English language map settings. Really essential to have it! I can't understand my location, place near me and choose reasonable route. Absolutely uncomfortable((

Road width restrictions
In Europe we often get width restrictions on certain roads. This could be added at Map edit level and integrated with navigation route planning and would need a new set of parameters in the vehicle details/settings that would determine if your vehicle can actually take advantage of routes which have width restrictions!!
i have been caught out several times in an oversize vehicle before!!

Option to turn off alerts for road construction
I can choose to toggle Road Constructions on or off for "Display On Map."
I would like to be able to toggle off alerts for Road Constructions, specifically, under "Alerts on Route."
Driving in Minnesota in the summer, it is a given that there will be road construction everywhere. It's nice to be able to see it on the map, and have the app use the information in its routing calculations, but I don't need an alert to tell me that it is there. It interrupts whatever else I am listening to, and it is not necessary to alert me…

I would love to see the ability to plot a holiday lights display on the map.
I'd like o be able to plot the great holiday lights displays in my area so I can tell other Wazers about them. Additionally one could have Waze plot a lights tour path to follow.

Ability to select different text scale.
The map screen seems designed for lower resolution phones. When used on Galaxy S4 the text is too small to read. Suggest adding a scale option.

Send accurate (W3W?) location to recovery company, police, fire
When you breakdown, arrive at and accident or have an accident yourself, you need to be able to report your location very very accurately.
Waze could have an emergency call/location feature to guide police, ambulance, fire etc to the exact location. The most accurate in what 3 Words which has mapped the entire globe with 3m x 3m squares.

Add warning about "Off-road/Not maintained" segments
Following warnings can be used:
* voice warning - on navigating to new POI, on entering "Off-road/Not maintained" segments
* show such segments as bars with special color on roure chart similar to bars with traffic jams
* highlight such segments with special color on map. With current implementation user is able to find such segments with map color scheme for editors. After navigating to POI it is covered with bold line of proposed route so colors are not visible16 votes -
Show gas stations and preferred fuel price on Waze map
Some GPS display petrol stations directly on the map, with the price of fuel framed with a color code to assess the cost (green: price ok, red: expensive).
Is it possible to add this functionality on Waze and in particular by using it with Android Auto?6 votes -

Change driver position to reflect road directions on the Android Auto
I drive on the right side and the map direction is on the top left, which requires me to look a bit further than I should. This feature already exists in Google Maps. If it's possible to arrange the direction to the right side, that will greatly improve the navigation experience and provide safer driving on the road.

navigation disappearing android auto
There's a known bug of this and I was directed here by support.
I have found a work around to get Waze navigation to work on the vehicle display through Android Auto.
These steps, in this order, will allow Waze navigation to function on the vehicle display. The steps must be performed each time the phone connects to the vehicle. So switching from wireless Android Auto to wired and vice versa will require following the steps again. All steps are performed on the vehicle display unit, not on the phone.
- Open Google Maps on the vehicle.
- Start navigation in Google …

Invites the user to reports UR to correct the problem himself
When the editor reports an error on the map as UR , the system could send an e- mail indicating the WME and the forum so that it even correct the problem on the map. The idea is to get new editors.
