multiple reoccuring beep option when speed limit threshold is exceeded.
Being able to set a reoccuring beep (instead of just one beep) when the speed threshhold is exceed is very necessary. This way speed cameras can be avoided and one is reminded what the speed limit is. Also, it is necessary to be able to add temporary speed limits into the trip line. These may or may not be permanent, but important just the same due to temporary speed cameras.

Report « ride against traffic » on highway // signalement dédié "contre-sens" sur autoroutes
A report “ride against traffic” would be:
- More easily and faster to report, despite stress.
- The other wazers know immediately what kind of danger is reporting.
- Set off the report 1.5 km / 1 mi before the action take place.-- français --
Pour avoir vécu récemment un contre-sens, c'est frustrant de ne pas pouvoir signaler aux autres wazers un danger de ce type, assez fréquent malgré ce qu'on peut croire (1 contre-sens / semaine en France sur autoroutes, sans compter ceux qui ne sont pas détectés).
Un wazer avait indiqué un "danger sur la route" avec…325 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

What is 3D Scanning in VFX?
At its core, 3D scanning is the process of capturing the physical shape and texture of an object or environment with high precision. Using specialized scanners like lidar, photogrammetry rigs, or structured Camera & Lighting systems professionals generate detailed digital models that can be integrated into computer-generated imagery (CGI). These digital assets are often used in post-production to blend real-world elements with computer-generated content, enhancing realism and narrative possibilities.

Screen saver-prevent screen burn
Need to make a screen saver so that the screen does not burn. I have had 2 phones that now have ghosting from the screen being on while navigating. Maybe add an option to have the screen go dark between turns.
47 votesThank you for your suggestion!
The Report button was designed to be noticed while blending in and it’s important to keep it as is.
However, we will revisit this idea when working on Dark mode, in the future. Furthermore, since this is a physical issue that OLED phones suffer from in different apps, we recommend to use Battery Saver mode to allow your display some rest from bright colors that might lead to this dysfunction.
Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram. -

adding the possibility of reporting nearby
Often I want to report something that I see a bit far from where I am by the time I turn on waze, it would be really useful to be able to report in places different from where one is (maybe adding a maximum radius to avoid scam)
PS sending feedback from mobile is quite laborious, if you care to make it easier it would be nice

Speed limit icon too small
I absolutely love this app—it's my go-to navigation tool, and I wouldn't be taking the time to give this feedback if I didn’t value it so much.
During my first big ride out last weekend, I noticed one significant issue: the speed limit icon(the red circle) is simply too small. I find myself having to shift my focus and move my eyes about six inches from the screen just to read it.
While I understand I shouldn’t rely solely on the app for speed limit confirmation, it’s incredibly useful in a pinch. Ideally, the icon should be about the size…

route calculation on device instead of server
When navigating over longer routes, it takes quite some time before the route is calculated and sometimes a server timeout is the result.
can the option be added to opt for local route calculation? This would significantly reduce server load. The option to cancel an ongoing calculation is also nice with this, as well as the choice for local or server calculation.
why does this calculation happen server wise? is this to reduce the mobile data used on the client as not all traffic info is on the client, but is on the server?

known speed trap
I'd like to see a feature where kind of like the known speed camera where a permanent feature that could help out of towners pinpoint speed traps. Especially late at night in rural area this would be helpful as traffic is probably much less and is less likely to be reported.

Add option to disable "pan backwards to reveal upcoming turns"
Waze pans the camera backwards to reveal upcoming turns and path, which I find annoying and disorienting. It just needs a simple on/off switch so people can opt out.

Verbally Say Speed Limit on Road
Waze needs to say what the speed limit is on the road verbally. It is dangerous to look down at the phone screen for the speed limit when it is not posted on the road, and you have no idea what it is, especially for those who have difficulty reading small print.

App display blocked by alerts
Railroad track alerts and red light camera alerts are blocking the ETA and routing info in the app. Force closing is only way to resolve which is not safe while driving

Launcher not functional
The latest update prevents use on the mobile screen while connected to Android Auto. The button to intentionally exclude Waze from the Android launcher is not functional. The Waze map only works on the car screen (if Waze is included in the launcher). If Waze is not in the launcher, the map does not work on the phone and, regardless of the settings, it refers to Android Auto and only displays line-by-line navigation commands on the phone, not the map. Please restore the original settings and fix the update error!

save lives: hijack hot spot and unsafe or damaged roads
DANGER HOT SPOTS
South Africa is riddled with crime and Waze can literally save hundreds of lives by allowing users to post hot sports at dangerous intersections. Simply being aware of a dangerous intersection will allow people to stop at that light with a safe escape distance. If the intersection gets safer somebody could post as not dangerous anymoreUNSAFE ROADS
