General
Hello, I believe it would be really helpful if waze users could add the "possibility of risk" of a thief, i.e. Point out that there is somebode who could be a thief or some one with bad intensions. In Sao Paulo, Brazil, this os very common on trafic lights. If wazer could help one another to prevent this, waze would be adding a lot more value on the top of existing helpful tools. Unfortunatelly I did see few cases where this case happened and I could not tell other wazers users. Many thanks

Gas price update blocked
Could the gas price report function be improved, especially in these times with inflation.
I am experiencing being "blocked" for updating gas prices, because Waze finds the new price unrealistic.
In most cases this is due to the previously gas price was reported several days/months even years ago.
E.g. was at at gas station where last update was 937 days ago, and since new price was double the previously amount the update was blocked.But I have also been to the situation where last price was only a week old, but since the gas price had dropped 15% since then…

Waze PLEASE HELP. My Apple iOS Significant locations glitched and got erased. I need my location history for 08/18/2022 to exonerate me.
I was pulled over because a vehicle “matched my description” at a Shell Gas station that I was never at on 08/18/2022 (see Frazier V. Cupp or Supreme Court V. Cupp; LE can basically lie to try and incriminate you for evidence that never existed). Then when I tried to use significant locations to pull up where I was on that date it didn’t have the “summary records” anymore. I blew a 0.00 BAC and had ZERO contraband in my vehicle. I did not break any traffic laws either (i.e. swerving, speeding, etc.).

Buenos días. Mi nombre es José María y deseo hacer un comentario sobre las actualizaciones. ¿Por qué cada vez que se actualiza el programa tienen que eliminar opciones para editar en el mapa? Para mí, sobre todo, es muy útil e importante el poder indicar al momento los cambios de límite de velocidad de la carretera. Hace tiempo que se podía hacer directamente mientras se conducía. Ahora es cada vez más difícil. Además, poder indicar que hay un vehículo en la vía, ó un tramo cortado también es importante y útil. Por favor, espero que vuelvan a hacer posible el…

Suggest a faster route with Vignettes/passes
This happens very often: You plan a trip. It should take e.g. 12 hours using highways.
Then you open Waze and forget to add the pass/Vignette. The Waze offers you a route. You glance at it and don't see it is taking back roads on the overview, so you accept it and start driving...
After 10/12 hours you realize you are only halfway there and you won't arrive to your accomodation on time (happens more than you'd think)... what happened? Waze didn't prompt you to add the pass/Vignette for a faster route.
Yes, I have the option to offer the…

Road Surface Hazard (Partial or Full Road Flagging)
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest enhancing the hazard reporting feature by allowing users to flag either a portion or an entire road as having poor surface conditions (e.g., full of potholes or severe degradation), instead of reporting only individual potholes.
In many areas, road damage is not limited to a single spot but affects continuous segments or even the whole road. Reporting individual potholes in these situations does not accurately reflect the overall driving experience and may underestimate the level of discomfort or risk.
By enabling users to mark a partial segment or the entire road as…

Unable to Submit Reports When Toast Messages (e.g. Tollbooth, Speed Bump) Appear
I’ve noticed an issue when trying to submit a report while driving near certain map elements such as tollbooths or speed bumps. When the short “toast” messages like “Tollbooth ahead” or “Speed bump” appear, they overlap the Submit button on the report screen. This makes the button temporarily inaccessible, preventing me from submitting the report until the toast message disappears.
It would be great if the UI could adjust to prevent this overlap — for example, by repositioning the toast message or allowing the report submission button to remain accessible at all times.

Add a gate/restricted option for gated communities/parks/highways and time of travel restrictions
There are some roads that you can only travel on if you have permission, such as a private road that requires a gate code or key. There are other public roads that are only passable at certain times of the year (e.g. Hwy 120 in Yosemite due to snow conditions).
That private road may still be open to the general public during certain hours of the day. As well that public road may only be open during certain seasons. As well someone else pointed out that certain roads have turns restricted based on time of the day.
It seems like…

This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being, since we’re focusing on features which would potentially benefit larger groups of Wazers.

Auto turn off once within “x” amount of miles from location (I.E.) home
Also once you’re in your town. It’d be nice to finish your ride without a turn by turn over your music while getting home:) !

“See your friends on the road — drive together, even when apart.”
Idea:
Add a new feature in Waze that lets users add friends and see each other’s live location directly on the Waze map — similar to Snapchat’s Snap Map or a GTA V online lobby.
How it works:
Users can add friends through usernames, phone numbers, or QR codes.
Once connected, you can see your friends’ cars moving live on the map while they’re driving with Waze.
You can tap a friend’s icon to get ETA to their location or message them (“on my way”, “meet here”, etc.).
Privacy controls let users choose who can see them (e.g. “Visible to…2 votes -

Add support for government emergency alerts (cell broadcast integration) to notify drivers entering affected areas
As a Waze volunteer editor, I’d like to suggest integrating a feature that uses official cell broadcast emergency alerts sent by governments or national agencies (such as AMBER Alerts, severe weather warnings, or public safety alerts).
The idea is simple: when a Waze user drives into an area where a cell broadcast alert was recently sent, the app could display a notification or short message about it — even if that driver didn’t originally receive the alert on their phone because they were outside the area at the time.
This feature could be extremely valuable in real-life situations, such as:…

Proactive Fuel Station Suggestion
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest adding a feature that proactively recommends nearby gas stations after the user has traveled a certain distance, which can be set by the user.
During long trips, drivers may not always keep track of their fuel level or may forget to refuel in time. This can lead to inconvenient or even risky situations, especially when traveling through areas with limited fuel station availability.
By allowing users to define a distance threshold (e.g., after driving X kilometers), Waze could automatically suggest the nearest gas stations along the route. This would give drivers more…

Use proper German in German app
I've downloaded the app in German and the linguistic mistakes start already in the Google Play store. Every screenshot has at least one mistake. When starting the app one gets the option to select the language: there too a mistake (instead of Deutsch = German it says Deutsche = German woman. Obviously I don't want to travel at that moment to any German woman suggested by Waze). Then I get the option to select dark or light mode. Again a mistake: instead of - h e l l - for light (colour) I can choose licht (light weight/thin). I might…
