1. Flock camera system license plate reader locations

   Allow users to map locations of police automatic license plate readers and select routes that avoids them.

   The Flock automatic license plate readers are now in over 2500 cities in the United States and track 1 billion vehicles per month per their website. They are able to detect the color of your car, wether or not part of your plate is obscured, if the registered owner has a valid drivers license, is a gang member, known drug smuggler, has an active warrant and other such information. Flock sells these to home owners association's and other private entities besides law enforcement. When attached with their Raven gun shot detection system it also is able to identify gunshot locations, broken glass and tires screeching. Our right to privacy is being destroyed. If off the grid individuals wish to not be recorded, they should have the ability to transit around these camera systems.

2. Please give the ability to turn off the "carpool" button

   The carpool button is the bane of my Waze existence. Whenever I pick up my phone from the little pocket area in the car and Waze is running, it triggers this "carpool" button. Then it takes both hands to swipe from the far left side of the screen to make it go away. I won't ever use the carpool function and would love to be able to hide it and stop this from happening. I know it sounds trivial, but it's maddening to deal with.

   Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

3. Improve prompts for U-turn

   Currently when Waze gives a U-turn instruction the voice prompt is "Make a U-turn ON [name of street you are on]. The problem with this is everyone knows that a U-turn is "ON" the street you are on. However, the driver does not know WHERE to make the U-turn. Map editors routinely see Update Requests where the driver was given a U-turn instruction and thought the turn was at a different intersection than where Waze was instructing them to make the U-turn.

   What would actually help the driver is if Waze informed the driver WHERE to make the U-turn. The instruction should be
   Make a U-turn AT [cross street]
   If no cross street name is available then a simple instruction "Make a U-turn" would be sufficient.

5. Inclusive maps for color-blind people

   I've been thinking of a problem Waze might find not that difficult to solve. Congestion leves are represented by different shades of colors, mainly yellows and reds. But lots of people around the world are color blind at some level, so the congestion colors are useless for them. I am suggesting that instead of simply using the plain shades of the colors, Waze star using hatched colors. This might be really helpful to a lot of people. Besides, this would help build an inclusive culture and policy.

6. CarPlay update

   Waze is super useful in car over my cellphone (iPhone)
   However, once plugged into my car with CarPlay, the experience is worst that ever. In fact, the CarPlay interface of the app does not support all functions offered in the mobile version such as :
   1. Unable to signify a fixed radar photo
   2. Unable to specify the police specification (visible, hide, opposite side)
   3. Unable to launch a SOS and so on
   In fact, the types of available notices is so small.

   In addition, you can’t find a gas station easily as in the app cause you don’t have any shortcuts options even after pressing on the search button in the upper part of the screen.

   Waze should update their CarPlay Experience ASAP by replicating the interface in the phone on CarPlay, so, by adding more options, adding shortcuts (gas, parking, etc) and by adding a new feature to find the cheapest gas station on our way to our final destination.

   Thank you and please act accordingly,

8. Homeless

   Some homeless agencies ask for homeless sightings so they can check on their well fare.

   Request is to add a Homeless Button, so users can report sightings, and ability for an organization to filter map and monitor for 'homeless'.

9. Alert for run-down animals

   English: We members of a robotics team created a new Waze alert. Imagine how much will be feasible alert when someone saw or trampled an animal? Usually the people don’t know what do when they trample an animal, if the Waze has this option the rescue of these animals will be easier of be accomplished and the animals will not die for staying for a long time waiting to they be ransomed.
   Will have an animal run-off alert (just as they already exist the camera alerts, per example) when the user to click on this alert he will notify if the animal is wild, domestic or if he could not identify, and if is a large or small animal.
   As in accidents the user also will be able to take a picture or comment something. The environmental police and the fire department (that are the organs that rescue the animals run down) will use the live map, which is already a resource available in the website, to do the rescues.
   What do you think of the idea?

   Portuguese: Nós integrantes de uma equipe de robótica criamos um novo alerta para o Waze. Imagina o quão será viável alertar quando alguém visse ou atropelasse um animal? Geralmente as pessoas não sabem o que fazer quando atropelam um animal, se o Waze tiver esta opção o resgate destes animais será mais fácil de ser realizado e os animais não morrerão por ficar muito tempo esperando para serem resgatados.
   Haverá um alerta de atropelamento de animal (assim como já existe os de radares, por exemplo) quando o usuário clicar neste alerta ele notificará se o animal é silvestre, doméstico ou se não conseguiu identificar, e se o animal é de grande ou pequeno porte. Assim como em acidentes o usuário também poderá tirar foto ou comentar algo. A polícia ambiental e o corpo de bombeiros (que são os órgãos que resgatam os animais atropelados) utilizarão o mapa ao vivo que já é um recurso disponível no site, para fazer os resgates.
   O que vocês acham da ideia?

   Hey, 

   Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

   We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

   Thanks!

10. important traffic signs on waze map

    in order to increase the safety of wasers and other traffic participants, what do you say if on the waze map will be the important traffic signs like: priority road, give way, stop, no stopping, no entry, one way, pedestrian crossing, level crossing; there are a lot of hiden signs by buildings, vegetation or by other reason those important signs are not seen and this goes to traffic events and it can be avoided if waze drivers are warned by their devices (if voice is activated)

11. Awards for People for Driving the Speed Limit

    Many people drive above the speed limit and we've all got a speeding ticket at one time, but wouldn't it be cool to get rewarded when we do drive at or near the speed limit? Maybe waze can create a feature to award points based on how much time or mileage that we are compliant to the posted speed limit. And maybe even leverage companies like Starbucks to award good drivers with a coffee! It is especially critical that drivers obey the limit on residential streets, and maybe this could motivate and educate drivers to do so!!

12. Pay for Parking based on location/zone

    Waze knows where I park and it would be really cool if I could just enter my credit card data and rely on Waze for automatic payment.

    Maybe also navigate me to the best value parking lot and open the barrier for me :)

13. Accept all possible formats of GPS coordinates as destination

    Let's do Waze more user friendly when entering GPS coordinates.
    It would be nice if Waze would accept all possible formats of GPS coordinates (many www maps produce different formats of coordinates - usually with N/S, W/E letters - it is not user friendly always think how to transalte them into the only one current supported format...
    I can imagine, that when using N/S, W/E letters even order of the longtitude and latitude can be switched, etc...

14. Length of delay before setting off

    It would be useful to have the length of delays displayed before setting off.

    Currently Waze gives you an ETA and time to destination - e.g. 1:30hrs but doesn't indicate whether this is 1:30hrs of free flowing traffic (optimised route) or whether it is going to take 1:30hrs because you are going to be sat in 20mins of traffic. It could display next to the ETA the time you are going to be in delay e.g. ETA 1:30hrs +20mins delay (maybe in red?).

15. Áreas de Risco, postos de combustível e estacionamento

    Sugestão para:
    1-Permitir marcarmos área de risco. Vez ou outra o waze manda entrar em Comunidades e ruas perigosas;
    2-Na configuração disponibilizar "mostrar no
    Mapa", postos de combustível e estacionamentos.

    Sobre área de risco, essa semana uma atriz da globo teve o carro baleado com percurso numa área perigosa.

16. התראה על רכב שמגיע ממול בכביש דו סיטרי

    היי, חשבתי על הוספת נתון שתאפשר התראה על רכב המגיע ממול בכביש דו סיטרי.
    לא פעם ולא פעמיים קורה לנו שאנחנו רוצים לעקוף רכב, אך לפעמים אין באפשרותינו יכולת לראות את הצד השני בשל ראות לקויה, תנאי כביש והדרך.
    מכיוון שאפליקציית ווייז עובדת על ג'יפיאס, אפשר לעשות אפשרות במפה שתראה את התנועה לא רק בנתיב שלך אלא בנתיב ממול.
    למרות שזמן תגובה של הווייז מהלווין למכשיר זה בערך 3 שניות, לפחות שתהיה התראה של כמה מאות מטרים, ככה אני מאמין שזה ימנע הרבה תאונות של אנשים שממהרים לעקוף ומסתכנים בתאונה.

17. Add option to display Gas Stations (as clickable icons) on main map screen without having to use menu.

    Add the option to display gas stations on the main map as clickable icons, without having to go through the several menus (i.e. menu > gas > list > map... and all the way back) to visualize surrounding stations and return to main navigation map.

    Clicking the gas station icons on the main map view should allow users to "navigate" directly to the gas station and also update the fuel prices (if within range).

    Showing gas stations on the main map view has two main benefits:

    1. Updating gas prices to nearby stations becomes much easier.

    2. The user will have the option to always be visually informed of where the nearest gas stations (and washrooms) are while driving. It therefore allows the user to drive to a nearby gas station visually (without having to touch the device), or they can click the icon to navigate to it directly.

    Finally, if this is not feasible, I at least recommend having an option that makes the "Gas" menu selection show the gas stations in map view first (before list view). And also once in the "gas station" map view, there should be a quick way to get back to the main (navigation) map view. Currently you have to click three times (in the the top left) to get back to the main map view; on android this corresponds to clicking the < arrow next to "SEARCH RESULTS" then "AROUND YOU" then "NAVIGATE". That's far too much work just to get back and forth from the gas station map view.

    Add the option to display gas stations on the main map as clickable icons, without having to go through the several menus (i.e. menu > gas > list > map... and all the way back) to visualize surrounding stations and return to main navigation map.

18. Display the maximum speed for speed traps

20. Re-Organize Speed Trap Buttons

    When editing the map a lot of stationary speed traps are reported but not approved. They are reported on positions where mobile speed traps (Police notifications) are / would be. As a user who only uses the client I would first go to speed trap and report it instead of reporting a police hazard. The result is, that this trap is not reported unless it is approved. Another button in the speed trap menu would help, for instance "mobile speed trap" with a time stamp. The same button can be shown in the police menu for the users who are used to it.

    Also a possibility to warn against places frequently used by police for mobile speed traps would be nice (maybe connected to a counter). This would be helpful in areas with low waze user density and prevent the first from being the fastest.
