Simplify how to report issues
Have you considered added a few quick report buttons to the map screen? have to click through multiple screen is a hazard not only to you, the driver but to everyone on the road around you. Having a quick click button right on the map for 3-5 of the most common reports ie: vehicle on the side of road, accident (you don't report whether it's a minor or major accident and to be honest, we don't care. We only car that there is an issue up ahead.) traffic (again, minor or major are of no concern), road works.
I forgot, perhaps make it hand free, all Siri or Google or whoever your AI is, to listen and report the issue. Google assistant does this already but only for accidents which, thankfully, are few and far between
I love the idea of people helping others by reporting issues but not at the risk of injury.

We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

Let us change our ICON to "cycling" to show up on other Wazers screen as a slow movng vehicle
Cycling safety in the USA is terrible! Waze user/drivers would probably like to know in advance when they are approaching cyclists...

Overlay minimap
This is a must! Google has it and it is so useful! Why do I have to enter the map every time I want to check something?

Calcular semáforo aberto
Com ajuda dos usuários o app poderia calcular a velocidade na rota para conseguir pegar o semáforo aberto/verde. Ainda que com o trânsito dadas as informações prestadas e coletadas, seria possível chegar a denominador comum para não ficar parado no semáforo. Acredito que em cidade menores de 80 mil habitantes é perfeitamente possível implementar a ferramenta.

Why doesnt the app offer to automatically send you your map data monthly? (period controllable in a setting)
I wanted to know about a journey I did only 4 months ago but it looks like waze has deleted that data. I feel frustrated because it feels like it is my data!

Add audio player support for BeyondPod
BeyondPod is one of the better Android podcast apps and I use it all the time. Having it as a selection in the audio player menu would be very useful and avoid distraction when driving.

Prevent tardiness
Add an option you can choose or a setting for people who are always late to things and if you click this waze should tell them to leave earlier to avoid tardiness and help make people more punctual without them realizing they have a buffer period

Fix routing around large bodies of water e.g. Lake Michigan
For example, when I travel from Milwaukee to Detroit, I have to use Google Maps because Waze can't figure out how to drive around Lake Michigan. It's been like this for years and would be great if it could get fixed. The only way I can get it to work is to do a trip from Milwaukee to Chicago and then from Chicago to Detroit.

Node Types - Multi use and meaningful for routes (Traffic Lights, Lane Guidance, etc)
An intersection always has a node, this node could become much more meaningful than simple turns and could significantly enhance the functionality of Waze (albeit with a significant development penalty).
By adding some logic to nodes you will be able to introduce some logic that will significantly enhance the ability for the routing engine to calculate superior routes when taking in things like traffic light penalties and other metrics.
1) You can collect timing metrics for intersections much more efficiently, and potentially learn intersection timing and other factors which will help produce much more accurate route timings without depending on segment traversal metrics (which in has many drawbacks, including underutilisation not populating metrics for meaningful calculations) it could become a cumulative metric for "hour of day" leading to a permanent figure affecting routing evaluation.
2) By adding a widget in the editor for "in/out lanes, including directions" to the node, you can build lane guidance at the node level for routing and direction purposes. Admittedly it would lead to some level of complexity, and ideally a L3 and above editor would only be able to configure this one with training.
3) Default penalty of 30 seconds could be applied to any intersection with a traffic light which would lead to meaningful routing choices without any cumulative data. Many routes are much faster by avoiding long drives with many traffic lights, even if those roads have more meaningful segment data than others.
I personally don't use many of the Waze routes in my city as I know the area well enough and which side streets to use that avoid traffic lights at each time of day, and my choices are based almost exclusively due to traffic light delays (often leading to significant time savings depending on the length of journey). Introducing this same choice into the routing engine may very well lead to a market leading engine that is significantly different from all the rest, and the only way it can be implemented is through user editing like Waze.

Se podria visualizar ademas de la hora prevista de llegada la hora actual
Solo se visualiza la hora prevsta de llegada y deberia tambien poderse visualizar la hora actual ya que en mi caso concreto cuando conecto waze a la pantalla del coche pierdo el reloj con la hora actual y solo se a la hora prevista de llegada pero no se que hora es en ese momento

Maps updates (more frequently)
Hello,
I would like to ask why the maps are not updated more frequently? In metro Atlanta, they have added new toll lanes on I-75. Those routes have not been added and when we are using those lanes using Waze they are very confusing with all the nonsense directions we hear. These new toll lanes were added a year ago, and as of today in 2020, no updates yet!! Thank you for listening to my request

Record a reminder for the end of The ride before starting it
Record a reminder/note for myself before starting the ride and hear it when I end it, for example:
- Remind me to take the bag from the trunk.
- Remind me to empty the trash can.
- Remind me to fold the side mirrors.
- Remind me to call/message someone.2 votes -
Taxa OXIGEN
Salut, pornind de la ideea introducerii taxei OXIGEN in Bucuresti, cum ar fi daca am putea selecta in setari si norma de poluare a auto ?
Posibilitatea de a alege din 2 rute:
1. Cu taxa Oxigen platita
2. Fara taxa Oxigen platitaMa gandesc ca ar fi util pentru soferii care circula in Bucuresti. Te.ar ajuta sa scapi de grija granitelor impuse de aceasta taxa.
Sau un pop-up care la fiecare deschidere WAZE (valabil doar in Bucuresti), sa te intrebe daca ai achitat taxa Oxigen, pentru a sti catre ce zona sa te indrume.

Add an option to use non-waze voices
It would be great to be able to select my favorite text-to-speech engine like Ivona, Cereproc, Acapela, etc. I want to be able to get voice directions from different options besides just the Waze voices or recording my own.
