  1. Speedometer position Android Auto

    Actual Speed and Limit icons to be set closer to driver position (left or right of screen) depending on driver position in settings.
    On car displays having the icons on opposite side can take the attention off the road for too long when trying to observe the speed limit / actual speed.

  2. Indiquer les temps supplémentaires (delta) sur la carte à chaque croisement/sortie d'autoroute

    Sur un trajet quotidien, les routes alternatives sont souvent connues.
    Quand Waze indique de prendre un autre itinéraire que celui qu'on a l'habitude de faire, il peut être intéressant d'indiquer quel temps supplémentaire on mettrait en restant sur le chemin habituel.
    Une différence (delta) de 1 ou 2 minutes est peut-être sans importance.

    Le trajet alternatif peut manquer de wazer indiquant s'il est viable ou non. Du coup il appartient plutôt au conducteur de décider s'il souhaite l'emprunter ou pas.

    Ce que je suggère est d'indiquer par un nombre sur les routes sortant du trajet défini par Waze le temps…

  3. Car display lacking blockages

    Route blockages cannot be entered on the car display when the smartphone is connected via cable and Android Auto. More functions for the dashboard would be welcome.

  4. Let us find two things next to each other along the route

    Give a possibility to search for two things along the route that are close to each other (300m).

    With the increasing number of electric cars and charging options, many people will want to search for something like „a Burger King NEXT to a Fast Charger“ while driving.

    The result should be a clean list of both hits with the usual „minutes added to the route“ but also the distance to each other.

  5. Take a break on Roadside Rest Areas

    When traveling on a highway using Waze, on pulling in to a known rest stop, Waze eagerly tries to get you back on your route. Waze should be able to discern that you've taking a break. Suggestion: when following a route on a highway, and you pull into a known rest area, Waze should pop up and say "Are you taking a break? yes / no"

    Upon the user responding "yes," Waze goes into a pause and does not offer any further suggestions, until the phone unit is detected moving at better than 15 mph. This would help reduce confusion…

  6. Option to close waze without confirming or double tapping screen

    I use waze on every drive, due to this my phone is always logged in when driving (use a pin to access). While sitting in traffic one evening 2 robbers forced my window down, unlocked my car, opened the door and grabbed my phone. I would appreciate if an option could be added to close waze without confirming or by double tapping the screen in order for a phone to lock itself asap so that it can't be used or accessed. This would be much easier to do in a state of panic than to press the power/lock button on…

    Posibility to confirm that other person than driver is using android auto on car's display At android auto. Now it won't let either a passenger to use navigation as it assumes that driver is using it.

    Problem is also that google assistant (voice control is working fine in waze app but not in android auto.

    So if I connect phone to car it doesn't understand my english but if I use waze on phone without connection to car it understands my english well.
    This causes that I need to stop or use phone while driving instead of more safety using…

  8. Can you create a "rouch railroad crossing" hazard? In an unfmailiar area it would be nice to know if the railroad is going to eat your car.

    Please add a "Rough Railroad Crossing" hazard. Pothole doesn't quite describe the situation properly.

  9. Use Waze app when connected to Android Auto

    While connected to android auto you cannot use Waze on your phone, would be good to have the function of inputting addresses and cancelling routes, issue is to input anything from a phone you have to switch off Bluetooth or the car :(

    Unfortunately using android auto in your car can be very tedious rather than simply doing it from your phone.

  12. Partner with Self-Driving Car Manufacturer

    Partner with Google, or another self-driving car manufacturer, and put Waze in ever car. If the Community already knows where everyone is, when they leave, how fast they're going, etc. Waze could automate traffic and avoid traffic jams

  13. Distinguer routes de terre et routes goudronnées

    Il serait bon de distinguer les chemins de terre et les routes goudronnées ou de rajouter comme type de véhicule 4x4, tracteur, camionnette ou camping-car; car Waze calcule parfois des itinéraires plus rapides en nous faisant passer par des chemins accessible seulement en 4x4 ou en tracteur. C'est dangereux et souvent on ne peut plus faire demi-tour. En plus parfois on ne gagne même pas de temps à avoir pris ce raccourci du coup! Il faudrait pouvoir faire un signalement "cette route n'est accessible que pour: et lister les types de véhicules différents"

  14. Carpooling, picking friends up

    I pick my friends up for college every morning and I would love Waze to offer a way to remember carpooling groups and requests. That way I would only have to open the app and let my "college group" know I'm leaving. Each one of them would receive my ETA to their location and would let them know (individually) when they have to go on the street to hop on the car. Similarly, they would also be able to check my location and ETA to their location at any time.

  16. Update to run on background on Sync 3

    The iPhone and Samsung devices recently released will show signs of burns when a picture is on for a long period of time. In this case since the screen has to be on in order for the car to run app its very bad for phone screen and can also make device get really hot and may start fire inside vehicle . I drive for hours at a time and i have noticed the heating problem. Please update app to run in the background with screen off.

  17. Vignette control car warning

    In HU mostly on highways there are multiple vignette / tax and customs car, checking traffic and are roadside, but always reported as police which is very misleading. Should be an option for some other type, because most of the police warnings are false alarm.

  18. CarPlay Display of My location

    It’s great that Waze is now available on CarPlay. However one thing I’ve noticed is the route ahead is often obscured by the turn/ETA tiles. This is because the location of your car is dead centre on the screen. If your location was offset to the side (like Google and Apple maps) this situation would be improved.

  19. travel buddy for lonely drivers

    Sometimes when driving alone you get bored. Why not add a buddy voice? It's more than just a voice:
    1. It can have different personas
    2. it continues to give road instructions, but it also plays road games with the driver: I Spy, Counting Cars, etc. It can use the camera to see things and the voice command to communicate. t tells jokes, sings along to songs, etc.

    It's like a navigator who's your bestie.

  20. It's a good idea to have the option of adding a warning that the area, street or neighborhood etc by where will move the car is DANGEROUS

    24 hours ago I had an accident that marked my life incredibly , I waze shot by an alternate route as the main highway was closed by arrangements . I collided and the worst was not that was in the area where I crashed . I do this because I want to know if there is any way that the waze app you can incorporate a notice as DANGER, DANGER ZONE between another , and so one assesses whether or not to go for it. Because I am a driver which much of the time with the app is run,…
