  3. the operation of the classification tape has changed adversely

    It is unpleasant that the meaning of the upper ribbon has changed during navigation. So far, the classification signal has shown in which lane I should move according to my current situation. This has changed and now it shows that at some point, when I have to change direction, in which lane I will have to be classified. This is very distracting while driving and dangerous for accidents. Please restore the previous system!

  4. 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.

  5. Address lookup with Google Search (Android Auto)

    When searching for an address on your phone you get an option to search using Google rather than Waze which is very helpfull as very often I've found Waze can't find an address or location entered but Google nails it just about every time... I would even like to make Google the default if I could as it's a lot more reliable..

    For now, just having the ability to search for your entered location or address via Google when using Android Auto would be a good start :-)

  6. supprimer ou atténuer le marqueur rouge sur la route lors d'un croisement de routes

    Bonjour

    Lors d'un changement de direction sur l'autoroute (exemple de A72 vers A89),lors d'un croisement d'autoroutes, l'indication en marqueur rouge sur la route peut être trompeur (A72)
    Il faut suivre l'indication en haut à gauche (A89). Cependant pour un non-initié le marqueur A72 sur la route peut être trompeur et provoquer un risque routier (virement soudain)

    Merci pour la prise en compte
    Il faut enlever le marqueur rouge du milieu

  7. API feed to private ride-sharing groups

    Hi, our organization has a few thousand volunteers signed up, covering trips from/ to therapy centers, (non-emergency medical ride-sharing trips) if they can sign in as a group members and see any current trip request on their route to/from work etc., from a feed from our database that has an origin and destination. If a group member travels that direction he will see the trip request from the feed.

  8. 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…

  9. Remove excess map details when entering/ exiting busy highway intersections with many entry points or circular roads that adds confusiont

    For example:
    1) I don't need to know the lanes that not in my direction of travel/ against my flow
    2) If it's a lane that is parallel to me but something that I can't get into and no need to know

    At busy intersection with 4-5 exit ramps and inter-looping lanes from different directions, there can be information overload and confuses the driver on which is the right exit/ entry lane to use.

    Put these not-useful-to-me/ distracting information into a very lightened colour or remove them totally?

  10. Select "From and To" plus "Stop Off" on the app/live web map

    To have the opportunity to add a "From" address as opposed to where you currently are. Therefore put an address in where you want to start your trip and then add the destination, and to also add "Stop Off" during the trip and possibly multiple stops like some map alternatives use.

  11. Wazec recent trips on Android Auto

    When I start my car and android auto can't on, Waze will display my most recent trips which doesn't make sense. Except for my home, work offices and other locations I want saved, how often do anyone have to drive to the same locations after each trip? Please put back and pop up the saved list whenever android auto is started.

  13. Don't send me driving into a fire zone in San Francisco.

    Driving around SF last Tuesday morning. Used Waze and was directed into an area where there was a huge fire which had been ongoing for a few hours.

    And later that afternoon (7-hours later) it directed me again to the area still closed by that very fire.

  14. Ride share directly from car's screen

    Great app! One thing you should consider to add, a functionality to share your ride directly form car’s screen (CarPlay in this case); is very off hand to start a ride and if you want to share it with someone, you have to go back to your phone to do so.

  15. Appreciation Voice Prompt

    Lagi na lang po utos ng utos si Waze tapos kapag hindi namin nasunod uulitin niya yung sinasabi niya tapos po hanggang maliligaw ka na dahil sa isang pagkakamali.

    Sana naman next time na nasunod namin direction mo kunwari sinabi mo : in 200 meters, take the exit at nagawa namin, maappreciate mo din by saying "That's nice!" o di kaya "good job" or "keep it up" para mas ganahan pa kame magmaneho.

  16. Auto North Button

    Please give the option to Auto North Adjust the map without using the "Keep map north up" setting.

    Same concept as the Re-Center button, but "Re-Rotate" the map view to North Up temporarily.

    For example: Apple/Google Maps have a compass icon that you can press to re-rotate your view back to north up.
    (It also shows which direction the map is pointed in, which would be nice to have)

  18. listed directions

    the "next turn" needs to read what can be seen through the windshield .... EG US183 in Lampasas Tx is LOCALLY called "Bell Street" but unless you are arriving at US183 from an in town intersection, the sign is 'US183' when arriving via US281.

    ALSO ... and I have screenshots for this ... but do not see a place to load them.

    a route from Hamilton, TX to Austin, TX directs through Lampasas, TX. Hamilton to Lampasas on US281, THEN take US183. Directions this weekend showed a turn onto US183 about 30 miles SOUTH of Lampasas. Waze omiited the…

  19. 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…

  20. Village ahaed "notification"

    Hi, I'd welcome some kind of (optional) notification that there is a village e.g. 500m ahead. Why? I do not like extensive braking when a village appears 50 meters (when it was not visible earlier) ahead and I need to slow down from 90km/h to 50km/h. I'd rather start to slow down earlier and fluently drive to the village without using brakes too much. Rather use "freewheel".

    This could be extended to "lower speed ahead", e.g. when o a motorway speed goes to 100 from 130 :)

    Thanks :)
