Add a cache option
I see a lot more than I can report, then constantly have reports that don't go thru. Please make a cache, so those reports can go thru. Also, make your app more compatible with wifi. I can't avoid the fact that xfinity is wherever I drive.

CarPlay UI Improvements
1st Make the Confirmation / Not there road notification buttons to be in opposite screen location and not right on top of the other to avoid “fat fingers” (common on bumpy roads with touchscreen interfaces).
2nd Add route selection information to include if journey has tolls or not, similar to smartphone version

Addind a "Facing the opposite direction" button
When I get to the car, many times Waze suggest a route in the oposite direction of how the car is parked. This causes a major time loss as the app needs time to realize I'm headind the opposite way, recalculate and offer a new route. Therefore a banner "facing the opposite lane?" is necessary and would upgrade the app signifully.
Sorry for my English.19 votesThank you for this suggestion.
Setting the Car’s direction when starting the app and navigation is a known matter which will be addressed in the future.
There are many complexities in location tracking which cause this issue and hold us from providing a solution.
It’s currently on the back burner, but definitely a part of the backlog. -
Ghost driver alert
A new alert would be interesting to have to alert drivers on a specific route that a ghost driver is coming their way and that they should be cautious, maybe telling them to stay in a lane and to reduce their speed.

Show Roadshields without voice output
It would be great to show Roadshields on the smartphone client without voice output.
At the moment we can show "straight ahead" without voice instruction with the lane assistant tool on WME. This function shows the detail "continue straight" only (without voice output).
It would be great to setup Roadshields and give them a flag "show only, without voice output". Roadshields are a powerful tool and can help to find the right direction. But a voice output isn't necessary always.33 votes -
Hope Waze Adds 3D Maps
Hope Waze can add a 3D map view like Amap to make lane guidance clearer at complex junctions and highways. This would help drivers avoid choosing the wrong lane.
Since Google Maps is also introducing 3D maps, it would be great to see this in Waze too.

Improving on route and more functions.
I been using waze daily for work as uber driver. There is time can be annoying when waze divert me to another route which is less traffic and mileage is far than origin route. This may cause additional cost on the fare and some riders may not feel comfortable if any route change. My suggestion to waze is have a option for waze as below:-
1) Option to ignore traffic jams so we can maintain current route without any diversion to other route. Let waze user to choose to stuck in traffic or find alternative route. :)
2) Option to …

Proximity routing for Home/Work
Many people use waze on a daily basis as a way to avoid traffic. We know how to get home or to work, and sometimes our work places have multiple entrances. These entrances don't always trigger waze that you have arrived, so even once I'm in the building, suddenly I hear waze trying to route me through the office hallways from my pocket.....
A new feature called "proximity routing" that the user can enable for their "home/work" locations would take care of this problem. Once the driver gets close, waze would indicate you have arrived and go into sleep mode.…

New speed alert mode
It would be nice if app can get something like new speed limit mode, allerting us (by sound) every 1/2/3 sec about excessed speed limit all the time, until car decrease speed. It will be very helpfull to avoid tickets and points but especially make road more safety.

Add tollbooth locations from menu
In South Africa, we have a number of toll booths on our major roads. Would be very informative to know where they are.

Modify Waze CarPlay
Waze in CarPlay does not correctly visualize the routes to choose them, it does not correctly show the distance, nor does it show the costs of tolls or highways, that information should be available on the CarPlay screen, since according to current laws you cannot take your cell phone while driving.

Add common objects to Hazard:Road
To reduce the possibility of the user becoming a potential road hazard, update the Report:Hazard:Road option with a submenu so that we don't have to type out what's in the middle of the road. There is already an option to report cars stopped on the shoulder, but none to report cars stopped in lane, or tire treads, or deceased animals.
It doesn't need to be fancy, just something so that we don't need to type, unless it's something really unusual.

Over the years that I've been using Waze, I've encountered a disturbing and annoying problem of short notice (late notice) to change a lane in order to turn. in this situation I'm forced to rudely push into the required lane or give up the turn and go back and try again
