"I know feature"
I live next to an intersection with a camera, and waze always reminds me it's there. I wish there was a way I could suppress certain permanents .
1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Traffic Alerts
Give drivers the option to manually enter a traffic incident ( police, speed camera etc) on the map rather than only allowing the them to report an incident on their tracking location. This can allow a driver to go a different direction or go past an incident and still enter an alert accurately for other drivers. Also allow an option for speed camera alone, because it is difficult to differentiate from police or a speed trap.

Ford Sync integration
Later this year, Ford will release the APIs for integrating apps with vehicles that have Sync. Waze could use the vehicle's on-board GPS, speedometer, and other data instead of running the phone's GPS.

known speed trap
I'd like to see a feature where kind of like the known speed camera where a permanent feature that could help out of towners pinpoint speed traps. Especially late at night in rural area this would be helpful as traffic is probably much less and is less likely to be reported.

calculated average speed of average speed segment
There are some road segments which have average speed cameras. Almost always the human beings unable to calculate average speed, so instead they simply don't exceed the enforced speed, the max speed, not average. In case if there are obstructions, slow vehicles, turning vehicles in the average speed segment, the real average speed may fall significantly below what was requested by Road Code rules.
Please add indicator of calculated average speed of passing of the current average speed segment37 votes -

Enable full control in the app using voice only
Add an option to interact with the app using voice control
for instance :
reporting an obstacle on the road using Siri/Google assistant,
rerouting to a new destination while driving,
share your location using a voice command.
All these options should prevent the user from touching the phone while driving and decrease distractions.
The convenience of using the app while talking only will increase the amount of users reporting , and interacting with the many options given in the app.
This will lead to more credible information to be provided for the users.12 votes -

Hi, during the last month my Waze froze many times because of popup ads I didn't pay attention to while driving. Bad PR for you!'
Today I had to restart my phone in order to get rid of these ads on waze.

Waze locks up on Pixel phones
Waze constantly locks up on Pixel 7, Pixel 6 and previous Pixel 3aXL. Locks up on phone as well as on Ford Sync display. Google maps work fine. Wish Waze would work. Tried to send from my phone, but Waze just freezes up. It will load on occasion but doesn't work for long.

I need Waze to block all iOS popups while running.
I need Waze to block all iOS popups while running. Sometimes a "select wifi" popup blocks my screen while driving. Other times I get SMS/texts blocking the view. I don't want to start fiddling with the mobile while driving so I hope you can block them automatically

UI Idea
I suggest a controller layout.
Where when you are in drive mode you can swipe to the right and have massive buttons.
Customisable buttons with customisable actions.
Most importantly a report speed camera button or police or construction.You swipe right and you can have a robot layout
3 buttons.
Or a controller top right bottom left layout.
And customisable and different actions to it.
1. Speed camera.
2. Record audio for later.
3. Skip song1 vote -
Implement user-configurable delay (in increments of 0.1 sec) for voice alerts
Some vehicle Bluetooth implementations have lengthy handshaking which prevents the first second or two of Waze voice alerts from actually being heard. My car has a feature that ramps up the volume of a Bluetooth phone incrementally on first connection. However, the impact is that in most driving situations, the first two seconds are simply too quiet to be heard!
For example, instead of "In 500 metres, turn right onto Main Street.", all you hear is ".. to Main Street". Obviously, this information is unclear and confusing, forcing the driver to glance at the map on the phone to verify…

Hello! I would like in the future to eliminate the possibility to report in the application: the police and mobile/fixed radars. Thank you.
Hello!
I would like in the future to eliminate the possibility to report in the application: the police and mobile/fixed radars. Thank you. Many people, when they see the police car report, pretend that they are driving normally or take it on another street1 vote -
Ding & Alert
Waze used to ding or speak when a speed camera was up ahead but after the latest update it doesn't do either, it just pops up on screen and then doesn't go away once you passed the camera it just stays there. I drove from sheffield to watford last week and i didnt get a single ding or voice alert all the way down the M1 but i got the onscreen warning.

Have voice use voice
I tried your product on my phone. I expected a voice telling me when to turn, as real applications do that. Instead, it gave me all sorts of useless noises. Why does that matter? I ride a motorcycle and I can't look at the phone while riding.
I've deleted the product from my phone. It's useless without voice direction.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion!
As you may already know, voice directions are available and functional in Waze.
It sounds like you experienced technical difficulties. We would be happy to assist. Please visit our help center – https://support.google.com/waze/ -

More specific warnings
Can there be an option to report a speed van/camera in Ireland?
Currently speed vans (privately operated) are reported as police which is not accurate but its the closest option however there is a big difference between a parked private speed van and a garda checkpoint/police.Thank you!
