Alerting beep
Hola,
Me gustaría hacer una sugerencia para la aplicación.Cuando aparece que hay alguna cámara de velocidad o de algún riesgo, me gustaría poder escuchar un beep cada vez más continuo conforme me voy acercando al peligro o cámara reportados, así no tendría que estar distrayendo mi mirada para saber que tan cerca estoy y solo con el audio poder ser alertado de la proximidad y prestar más atención al camino. Imagino que habrá personas que no les guste esta posible opción y habilitar el poder quitarle esta función para quien así lo deseé.
Sin más por el. Momento,…5 votes -
Change option speed limit /speed penalty
in europe I travel through many countries. Each country has different speed penalts. it would be good to have a chance change the speed limit to the value of the penalty, for example, if my speed is 150, it's not terribly. but when my speed value is 400 € for a penalty then I better slow down.it is good for Young people . they have no sense and no money. and it's best for safety. at maximum speed an alert is displayed ,,, withdrawal of driving license

Adding a Stop
Hello. I would like to suggest that Waze add the feature of choosing a stop along a primary destination route with options based on distance and minutes off of the primary route, similar to Google Maps. For example, I want to add a stop at Starbucks on the way to Target, and Waze only gives me the option of distance, not the minutes off it will take me.

Waze to issue Alerts when using CarPlay split screen
According to Waze support, when using Carplay split-screen (where Waze splits screen with other app like music), Waze won't issue traffic Alerts by design!! That's true, I have confirmed it. As soon as Waze returns to "full screen", it resumes issuing traffic alerts (danger, weather, radar, etc).
Split-screen is a quite usefull feature of Car-Play as it simplifies greatly audio/music control on the road, without the issue of messing with several buttons.
Although in split-screen mode the screen area that Waze has to show information is reduced, there is no reason why Waze could not keep issuing the …7 votes -
Option to Disable Specific Alerts, Including Speed Bump Notifications
I would like to request an option in Waze to allow users to disable specific types of notifications, such as speed bump alerts. While these notifications can be useful, they can become overwhelming in areas with numerous speed bumps. Having the ability to customize which alerts are enabled would greatly improve the driving experience and reduce distraction.

Miles with decimals.
Add decimals to all miles, not just 10 or below. I drive for a living and having more precise distance information would be helpful.
Thank you.1 vote -
Feet to Yards please!
Please give us the option to select Yards (or metres) instead of Feet for distances in the UK. We have been brought up on using yards for distances under a mile (but we are able to use metres as they are similar). Feet as a measure is rarely used in the UK now.

Add 'beep only' option to the sound options
I now have the options: no sound / alerts only / sound on. I'd like a quiet mode, but I don't want to miss navigation cues. A beep only mode would be nice.

New idea to add to Waze alerts from Green Bay, Wisconsin. BROWN COUNTY, Wis. (WBAY) — Drivers using some of the major interstates and highwa
BROWN COUNTY, Wis. (WBAY) — Drivers using some of the major interstates and highways in Northeast Wisconsin will now notice a new alert on message boards warning them when there’s a wrong-way driver.
It is one of the scariest moments drivers could face — heading down the highway or interstate at 70 miles an hour and headlights come straight at you.
Brown County Sheriff’s Patrol Captain Dan Sandberg says it’s all too common and often ends with someone injured or killed, as happened on I-41 in southern Brown County in August.
“It’s almost a weekly occurrence that we have somebody…

Move Icon
A way to move the icon that you just reported. When I am a passenger, I don't normally open Waze. So when I see something to report, I am usually late reporting it due to loading on my phone or just finding my phone. Would be nice to be able to move the icon to where the alert should be.

Replace unintuitive “not there” button symbol
When people are driving, symbols need to be instantly recognizable. For example, most of the report icons on the initial report display meet that requirement.
But when driving and you come across something like a partner feed alert and the app wants more info, the “not there” icon option is a stylized… purple and red, what?.. gloved?.. thumbs down hand that doesn’t intuitively convey “NO” and does not match the style theme of the other app icons. The first time I saw it when driving I could not figure out what it was, and what it was for, until I…

"Not there" option for all incidents on route clickable, not just on alerts
When on route, when there are multiple reports and alerts for police or cars on a side of road it only alerts you of only one, there others sometimes are just missed to click the "not there" option and the alert stays there for others. You should be able to click the report and show the "not there" option all times, not just the like button.

Map issue since the update
Hello Waze Developers,
I wanted to share some feedback regarding the Map interface that has been changed since the last update.
I use Waze in horizontal mode in my car, and I’ve noticed that I am no longer able to see my speed when there’s an alert. Previously, the speed bubble was on the left side and, even when an alert appeared, the bubble remained above it.
Now that the bubble is positioned in the middle, it seems that when an alert appears, it covers the speed, making it difficult to view. Would it be possible for the speed…

ALERTA PARA FAIXA DUPLA/TRIPLA NA BR -- ALERT FOR DOUBLE/TRIPLE BAND IN BR
Gostaria de sugerir que o aplicativo informe no mapa quando o carro estiver próximo de uma faixa dupla/tripla na BR. Esta função pode evitar ultrapassagens desnecessárias na BR quando o usuário do aplicativo estiver viajando. Diversas vezes quando viajo, vejo motoristas desesperados para ultrapassarem caminhões, principalmente à noite. E em algumas destas vezes, poucos metros depois nos deparamos com a faixa dupla/tripla na estrada, o que torna a ultrapassagem desnecessária naquele momento. Dessa forma, fica a minha sugestão para inserir um aviso, do mesmo modo que ocorre com as sinalizações de radar nas estradas. Desde já, agradeço.
I would suggest…

If a National Weather Service (NWS) alert or warning is active or soon to be active, issue an alert to users before providing the nav guidance to or through that affected polygon.
