Visualización elementos mapa 3D
Se propone la incorporación de una visualización tridimensional 3D avanzada que permita representar con mayor precisión los distintos elementos del entorno cartográfico, tales como ríos, montañas, edificaciones y otros puntos geográficos relevantes. Esta funcionalidad, presente ya en la mayoría de los navegadores actuales, contribuiría a mejorar la interpretación del entorno, facilitando la orientación del usuario y ofreciendo una experiencia de navegación más intuitiva y visualmente atractiva.

Besides Toll route and No toll route there should be a third option: No Toll (except Bridge tolls) route
Besides Toll route and No toll route there should be a third option: No Toll (except Bridge tolls) route
There should be an option to apply the above choice across the whole route to the destination or state by state or highway by highway.
For hazards and police, the “Still there” and “ Not there” choice is available only for a short period of time. It’s only after passing the location that one knows whether it is still there or not.
Generally graphics are poor: the icons for road hazard, police, construction are not intuitive. The graphics of car icons…3 votes -
Fix waze routing
I'm not sure what you have done to waze lately but I just tried to route from Waterbury VT to Bridgewater NJ and got only 1 options. 87 to 91 to 84. I drive this a lot and its a horrible route and the slowest. Waze always have given me 3 peoples from here to NJ. Today not the case. Google did perfect. Why did you break some thing that works? I will likely not use waze for routing given a few other very poor routes.

Premium user / tipping users for correctly placed speed traps
It would be nice to give some incentive to users to actually use correctly this app.
What do i mean by that?
- The first and most dangerous obviously it is a speed trap. I would give immediately my half of speeding ticket to users that saved me from that.
- More users would be drawn to the Waze and we could have more information, because there is a reward for being useful
- We could have hotspots, that means, zones where is frequently reported some police activity, even if it isn't reported today, beware it might be something.
I would happily pay…

Alarms instead of notifications
I love the "Later" option for planning trips but the reminder notifications go missed quite often. A few options would be great.
1. Make a Calendar event (or part of an existing one) so that reminder alarms can be used based on your default settings. If it would adjust to 15 mins (or user determined) before you need to leave that would be awesome.
2. Allow the user to set the time before you need to leave... getting a reminder saying "Leave Now" is not realistic... let us decide how much time we need before the "leave by" time.

Mapas offline com alerta de radar de velocidade
É um ótimo aplicativo, mas inútil em viagens longas por alguns motivos.
1º impossibilidade de baixar os mapas offline, com apenas alertas de redares de velocidade por exemplo.
2º toda vez que paro em um posto para abastecer e lanchar, o app perde a rota, como se desligasse. Ao abrir novamente, se estiver em local sem internet, já não temos mais a rota e os alertas de radar.
3º não informa radares de velocidade ou outros alertas, com a tela do celular bloqueada, não sei porque isso. Continua informando a rota, mas não informa os alertas.4 votes -
Delay points until someone confirms police
I’m in Sydney Australia and have noticed lately that when wagers have marked police ahead, even if it’s only been marked 2 or 3 minutes beforehand there is no police to be seen. Instead of awarding points straight away, maybe points can be awarded when someone confirms the police are there and they get points based on people confirming police ahead. I’m finding lately that people are marking police and even cars on the side of the road just to up their waze points. I can’t see any reason why they are marking it when there is nothing there. Even…

worrisome design trends lately
I'm noticing some worrisome design trends lately in Waze, please don't ruin an app that was almost perfect as it was!
Examples:
1) forcing Google Assitant down our throats, when the voice recognition Waze used before was flawless;
2) those arrows on top (lane guidance) telling which lane to use are completely unnecessary and redundant and take up screen real estate;
3) the new speed camera warning in white down below is ugly af, contrasts with my dark color scheme, and again, takes up valuable screen real estate unnecessarily and reduces the part of the map we see, it was…2 votes -
Police alerts in Chile save lifes an you disabled them
Just wanted you to know that by disabling police alerts in Chile you are supporting the chilean government on their use of the police force to brutally oppress the citizens. In the past year the police has been killing, hurting, raping and torturing people due to the social demands for a dignified life, access to health and education and many other issues. We are actually afraid of encountering any king of police control because we don't know what will happen with us. From this day I personally make you
partially responsible for any new attack that comes from police force…2 votes -
Emphasize searching by business address during user onboarding.
As a volunteer editor, I deal with many URs that involve what the user perceives to be "incorrect" address navigation. I frequently find myself advising reporters to search by business name instead of address, because the business PP is generally more accurate than the HN. It would be great if this could be added to the tips that are shown to a new user when they first run the app. I think this would reduce user frustration because they likely expect navigation to the building like in GMaps when they enter an address. They don't realize they are being taken…

Show Junction ( intersection ) numbers on Reports ahead
After the Route is selected Waze can display "Reports Ahead" or they pop-up on your journey, Each report is given a distance, type and location. e.g 81.8 miles / Heavy Traffic / Flore.
Unfortunately I have no idea where "Flores" is. So it is difficult to relate to where in my journey this delay is.
What would be much better would be to use the Road and Junction numbers ( US: Intersection numbers).
The locations are often small towns i have never heard of.
E.g. If it showed " 81.8 miles / Heavy Traffic / M1 J14-J15 near Flore" that…2 votes -

Melhorar a qualidade de um aplicativo muito bom!!!!
- Deveríamos ter no aplicativo um fácil acesso para elogios, novas idéias e reclamações!!!!!
- Moro no Rio de Janeiro, conheço muito bem minha cidade, mas uso o Waze para me dar o caminho mais rápido. Uma ideia, por que vcs não sinalizam as áreas de risco com uma coloração mais diferenciada, tons claros, apenas para diferenciar áreas de riscos, passa pela área quem quiser ou que conheça!!!!!
- Parabenizar, pelas ultimas atualizações, muito bom a nova aparência do Waze, "Perfeito". Eu estava sentindo falta de um indicador de velocidade nas estradas e radares, Vcs lançaram essa semana essa condição, muito bom!!!!!! Uso…

The new layout sucks for iPhone 4s. Like when showing routes it doesn't show all 3 on the screen like it did before. Kinda sucks now.
Fit all the information on the screen.

Routes via faster alternate paths
I've noticed lately that Waze has been suggesting routes very similar to the routes suggested by Google Maps: through avenues and main streets that are most often jammed. Some time ago, Waze suggested smarter routes, avoiding traffic jams and going deeper into neighborhoods. The route was longer, but much faster. Today, he insists on passing only the main streets and this considerably increases the travel time. When the path is known I always follow the routes suggested in the past by Waze and 100% of the time I save between 5 to 10 minutes, which is a lot of time…

Map UK police ANPR scanners
I like to suggest that UK police ANPR scanners are crowd-mapped and potentially included as an option that one might like to avoid when navigating
Background:
Police have set up thousands of number plate scanners in the UK which record passing traffic including images of front passengers.These create motion profiles which are stored on non-public database regardless of suspicion or explicit consent with no right to view your own data).
Camera locations are not published also even though ANPR cams are visible for people who know what they look like.
WAZE could crack this lack of informational self-determination and…

Detours
WAZE is screwing up on a lot of things that were reliable before. the detour function is one of them and it no longer works the way it did. When you come to a detour you should be able to click on any of the arrows in all directions as you may have had to turn. It now serves up one arrow based on where your car is headed so people aren’t marking new detours because they can’t anymore.
WAZE had a lot of features that are still there but no longer as functional or robust as they used to…4 votesThanks for reaching out.

Enhance Waze on CarPlay’s Instrument Display
Thank you for adding Waze to the instrument cluster on CarPlay - it’s a huge improvement! However, the current implementation could be refined for better usability.
• The resolution is too low, making the map appear overly zoomed in with limited visibility of the road ahead.
• Key details, such as potholes and hazards, are missing.
• A higher-resolution option with a more zoomed-out view would greatly improve navigation.
• Adding a 3D perspective or allowing users to customise the zoom level would make it even more useful.Having Waze on the cluster display is fantastic for quick glances, but…
