The Green line - (Energy/ Gasoline)
The green line- When a Wazer checks optional routes (and also in the preferences/initial destination route) the most energy efficient route shall be marked as the "Green Line".The Wazer should provide Waze with its car model, design, and year so Waze could calculate the energy consumption.There is a difference between the routes because of distance, time, type of ride etc.At the end of the ride the Wazer will be provided with estimated carbon footprint.From Waze perspective - much more data... and from there you can think about many products and ways to monetize it

Move avoid highways option to menu
As someone who owns both a car and a motorcycle, I toggle The avoid highways navigation option back and forth all the time. It's currently buried about 3 or 4 menus down. Love to have that moved to the top menu for ease of use.

Speed before sharp curves or in rough weather
Alert when a user drive to fast before curve in the road or a coming intersection.
Waze knows the speed of the car and "knows" that we are getting close to a sharp curve in the road , alert in that case would be very important . Especillay in a rough weather.5 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

dark mode
Your latest update has messed around with dark mode and I’d like to highlight a potentially dangerous problem. Dark mode used to automatically activate however now it doesn’t leaving a bright white screen during night driving on Apple car play. This is extremely dangerous
The only way to prevent this is to open your phone and then open Waze which enables dark mode. Please fix asap

A car/driver could use some help in 300m
So many times we see car on the roads, specifically the highway, but we are navigating to fast to stop last minute to help them out. Although many of us would be glad to help out, we just can't stop as we saw them too late. If there was a way people in need could put in a request (sometimes, just not being alone, panicking is already a big help - having an extra fluo jacket, need of water, lift to closest gas station if in the middle of nowhere etc.) that would send an alert "a car is pulled…

Accident icon
Accident icon is not easily recognizable in version 3.6 specially while you are driving and only take a glance in the phone's screen. New icon is pretty similar to traffic jam reports. I think it could be redesigned as a overturned car, or adopt the design used in older versions.

Bring back the old car icons
Bring back the old car icons. These new blocky icons are hideous, childish, and quite stupid looking.

Place NEW favorites at the top of the list.
I always add new favorites to the list while NOT connected to the car. Then, when I connect, via Android Auto, I attempt to select my NEW favorite. However, it is located at the very bottom of a very long list. Sure would like to see NEW Favorites at the top of the Favorites list

Speedometer position Android Auto
Actual Speed and Limit icons to be set closer to driver position (left or right of screen) depending on driver position in settings.
On car displays having the icons on opposite side can take the attention off the road for too long when trying to observe the speed limit / actual speed.8 votes -

I would like to insert my car parameters ( I have 18 tons camper) with bigger dimensions, just to avoid low bridegs and weight limited roads, if we can get it, I'm sure the truck drivers will start to use waze as well.

Terceira faixa --- Third track
Nas estradas onde não existem pista dupla, os motoristas ficam ansiosos para realizar ultrapassagens para evitar veículos lentos. As oportunidades de ultrapassagem podem ser previstas pelo waze que indicaria na tela a aproximação, inicio e fim da terceira faixa. Geralmente a terceira faixa existe em aclives, para que veículos lentos, caminhões etc mudem para a direito facilitando assim a ultrapassagem dos carros mais rápidos. Se os wazers pudessem programas as ultrapassagens nesses pontos que são fixos, a ansiedade poderia ser controlada e inúmeros acidentes evitados! ----- On roads where there are no dual carriageway, drivers are eager to perform to…

Speed limits ahead
How about an Info of speed limits ahead on cirrent road.
Why?
If you travel over Land, you are usually allowed to do 100kmh. At intersections, small villages etc. the speed Limit is usually reduced to 70kmh. If there could be some kind of Information with a speed Limit ahead, about 300 to 500m ahead you could just take you foot of the Gas an let the car roll to safe energy. I Do it regularly on known Routers, if traffic allows it (no one behind me how might be annoyed). With this Methode I m able to have 1…10 votes -
Yesterday we went to a trip in the north of Israel,
Yesterday we went to a trip in the north of Israel, two families in two cars, On the way back to home we saw that the other car choose another way, it was dark and we start to worry, We could call them, but then I thought that it will be much faster and easy if we can see their location on our WAZE, so we can stop worry and maybe plan to meet them later on the way. I am almost sure that it's not a very complex addition to the waze and it can help many drivers.…

automatic accident
If your car comes to a sudden halt or veers off course dramatically and unexpectedly, have waze pop up with a message asking if you have been in a accident. The message must stay for 5 seconds, and if you do not cancel it or press the "NO" button, it automatically alerts a nominated friend and sends them the last known location

Map doesn't load properly on iOS 13.3 with CarPlay
With Waze for iPhone and CarPlay running iOS 13.3, Waze fails to load the map correctly. Either the map appears blank, or extremely zoomed in and low resolution (because it's zoomed in much more than it's intended to be). I have to use my phone to force quite Waze one or two times before I can get the map to appear correctly. This needs to be fixed, because if I was caught touching my phone in the car while closing the Waze app, I would be given a big ticket for using my phone in the car.

Not really an idea but a bug...
IOS 18.1 beta and CarPlay, iphone 15 pro max. I cannot do any reporting functions (report a hazard, police, etc) on the CarPlay screen. Icon flashes so it knows I clicked it, but no response. Same thing when k try to hit the "still there/not there" buttons on the carplay screen. Have tried 3 different cars, same result. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app, restarted the phone. No change. I know this is a beta OS but just reporting the issue anyway.
