Give us the voice of Gigi Saul Guerrero!
Gigi Saul Guerrero is feisty, ferociously funny, and a beloved member of the global horror community! She’s an actor, a horror film director, and the voices of Spider-Girl (Marvel Super Hero Adventures) and Vida (Super Monsters). Hailing from Mexico City, where she's known as “La Muneca Del Terror,” Gigi gained fans worldwide with her quick wit, infectious charm, and her mesmerizing timbre. (Her accent pairs well with two fingers of Casa Dragones.) Next time I drive the highways and byways of America, I want directions from Gigi Saul Guerrero!

Add a way to put Waze to sleep in Apple CarPlay
If I navigate with Waze in Apple CarPlay, it stays open on my phone and drains my battery unless I remember to go on my phone when I get out of my car and put Waze to sleep. Then the next time I get in my car, Waze starts up even if I don't use navigation and stays on on my phone when I get out of the car, again draining my phone battery. And if while in the car, I put Waze to sleep on my phone or quit the app, it immediately starts up again. This…

Correcting directions
When trying to get directions to 2011 Fallsgrove Way, Fallston MD 21047 on the Waze app, it takes you to the wrong place. Somewhere off of Pleasantville and Roundhill. Which is about 2 miles from Fallsgrove. Fallsgrove is not off of Pleasantville. It is not off of Roundhill. It is off of Oakmont Rd. Can you fix it, please?

Create area of interest around vehicle
Allow user to specify an area of interest around their car. This area of interest would have a circular shape and diameter would be in miles. The size of the diameter would be specified by the user. The user would then select alert types that they would like to receive within this area. For example, the user would like to be alerted if a police car enters this area. The police car could be behind them, and approaching them, beside them, on the other side of the road etc.... They could also request weather alerts that could indicate if a…

Edit suggested address
Please, please PLEASE make it possible to select a suggested street and THEN edit the selection. If I type "k" and Waze immediately suggests the right street I am - of course - happy and I click the suggestion.
I am NOT happy to have to back out of it and type the full "Karl-Henrik von Gröthufvuds väg 1034 A" from start to finish, without a single misspelling or missed dash...
Please? 🙂

‘Go Later’ function
‘Go Later’ should always be an option to choose from. Currently, after some tinkering with the app, if you click on addresses you’ve been to previously it only allows you to start drive— not go later. In order to get the Go Later option to appear, you have to type the address into the search bar in and choose it from the list that populates, as if you’ve never gone there before.

More information for the Editor when opening UR
ENGLISH:
Problem:
Often the UR (User Report) arrive to us without information, even trying to contact the user we do not get a good response rate, so much is that most open URs are closed as UNIDENTIFIED.
Improvement: When opening a UR you could get more information for the publisher in WME as
Route Start Location
Destination of the Route
Location source (Waze Database or Google Maps)
APP configuration information that user uses as Avoid Dirt Road, Toll, Expressways etc.)You may ask me: The user would not have privacy. In parts yes. When you open a UR, we do…

set an area where you no longer need directions home
set an area or certain roads that you know so when you set waze to take you home, navigation stops at those points because you know where you are

Create shortcut to go to location and alert user of journey (replicate Glympse functionality)
I have noticed that Waze now offers location sharing. I would like for it to completely replace my need for running Glympse in tandem. Ideally, if I could have a shortcut icon on my phone home screen that started navigation to "Home", and shared my location with my wife, this would be great. Many thanks.

Not all streets in Palm Beach County have to start at I-95 or the turnpike. Try Military Trail and 441 as a starting point.
I do not use waze until I get close where I am going. I use Military Tail or 441 first. I do not listen to waza which tell me to use I-95 or the turnpike.

Who at Waze wrote the memo that things must be hard.
All I want Waze to do is get me from point A to B. This morning was in a rush, typed in mr destination address and I was then directed to input info. into Facebook and other social media. I divorced myself from Facebook years ago. They are a dog breath outfit. Why would Waze send me there?
There was no exit button, no way for me to get out of this so I logged off and got my direction from Google map.
Just make things simple, just give directions.1 voteThanks for reaching out.

Mark incidents on map based on when you started the report
At Highway speeds I could be a quarter mile down the road by the time I’m done tapping out my incident report. Waze should remember my position when I started the incident report and post it back there once I’m finished.

Idea to improve destination time accuracy
your start time with delays to destination time changes as you travel due to new incidents along the way. For people using waze for mainly work and back everyday it would be great if you could record the destination time when you first switch on waze and then record the actual destination time when you arrive. use this as an average over a few weeks to give the user a more accurate time to reach destination

Early Alert for Standstill Traffic Following Accidents on Motorways
Possibility to treat standstill traffic as an alert when there is an accident ahead. When an accident occurs on a motorway and traffic queues start to form, the key is to receive an alert about the standstill traffic. Ideally, this should happen at a greater distance than usual.

Ui and arrow problem
UI Design – The interface sometimes feels cluttered and unpolished, making it harder to use on the go. A cleaner, more modern layout would help.
Navigation Arrow Placement – The direction arrow is inconsistent: sometimes it sits too high (near the top of the screen), making it small and hard to see quickly, especially in cities. Other times, it’s positioned well. Keeping it more centered and larger would reduce distraction while driving1 vote -
As a biker I don’t want Waze to open last recent destination when starting Waze to prevent me to take off my gloves to scroll down the list.
Add an option to prevent recent destination menu to appear when starting Waze.
