  2. Provide an auto-reroute disable function.

    Provide an auto-reroute disable function. I was going through Atlanta and routed off of I-75 HOV lane (75 mph) to surface streets, only to be routed back on to I-75 slow lane (10-15 mph). That cost me about 15 minutes trying to get back to the HOV lane.

  3. Make Waze compatible with AndroidAuto Coolwalk.

    Waze is not yet working on full screen with Coolwalk beta of Android Auto. Google Maps is doing that already.

  4. Android auto - car head unit layout

    I think the app layout when on the car head unit display should be split. (It has already been suggested in a post about low resolutions)
    - A split display could make it a lot clearer, since with the current floating turn directions/menu, the map is partially hidden when your route takes you left (since the car icon doesn't have enough horizontal offset)
    - A delimited box for the map could enhance its visibility.
    - The instructions pane could take the whole height of the display and thus use larger fonts/icons or provide better overall readability

  5. School zone camera speed trap Lawtey, Fl. No flashing lights. 20 mph. Can't read times on sign when driving.

    Lawtey, Fl. is operating an unethical school zone speed trap at the light on US 301. There are NO flashing lights and the zone times are impossible to read when driving by at the posted speed of 40 mph. Speed limit drops to 20 and is camera enforced. Ticket for $100 arrives 2 weeks later. If Lawtey was truely concerned about student safety, they would install flashing lights. Their primary objective is to defraud unsuspecting drivers and Lawtey has a long history of being a speed trap.

  6. The option to be able to mark speed bumps or potholes on the map for yourself or for everyone

    Mark for yourself or others the areas where there are speed bumps or potholes to reduce speed in advance before reaching that area marked on the map and be careful, since in Mexico there are many speed bumps that are not marked, in addition potholes are common, and the fact of being able to reduce speed in advance would make many drivers take better care of their vehicle.

  7. Speed cameras

    Is it possible that you can add in settings on “display” that we can edit the photo size of the speed camera that is coming up on our route. And if we can change the colour of it to our interest.. as the gray camera is hard for me to see and the size of it is small for me to notice..

    Thank you for your great work making Waze 🤩

  8. Give us a target speed in traffic jams to help Waze users optimize average throughput

    I recently read this article: http://www.bbc.com/autos/story/20160428-how-ai-will-solve-traffic-part-one

    It talks about how going slower and keeping more space between your car and other cars can actually improve the flow of traffic when it's all jammed up. It also explains how autonomous cars will make this work much better, but also indicates that we can help improve things now by changing our driving behavior.

    The article also explains how the highway patrol sometimes sends cars through traffic jams on the highway to break it up and re-channelize it.

    If the Waze app could give users a target speed based on…

  9. Add fic speed camera on the app

    These days, there are many fixed speed cameras that suddenly appeared in Hungary.
    There are mobile cameras and police registrations on the screen, but there are no fixed speed cameras. It would be nice if you could add it. Thank you.

  11. Option to disable road ahead for users with Android Auto or Car Play

    During my reports I received one complaint that a user who doesn't use the Waze app directly cannot cancel out Waze recalculating them back on the main road, if there was an ability to quickly x out a road ahead as one of the choosable icons on the screen (Maybe an icon with a picture of a crossed out road which will tell Waze that the next segment is not an allowable route and should be recalculated), that may be safer and more preferred to give users with Android Auto and Car Play an option so that they don't have…

  12. Speed Camera Alerts

    It would be great if you could add a function for making the sound Alerts more prominent and repeatable ? not just a flash on the screen and maybe a spoken alert, the screen alert is easily missed whilst concentrating on driving, Maybe also be able to change the alert sound like in TomTom.

  13. Potential Mobile Speed Trap Location Alert

    There are many locations where Police Camera vans stay. These are often the same location, and often around bends so its too late once they see you. You should add to the map, just like with speed cameras, potential mobile speed trap. This would allow everyone to be alert at all times, then if the vans are there, Wazers can further report Police just as usual. This would prevent speeding earlier on rather than when someone finally reports the presence of police. For example, this could be done by adding a new icon e.g. a van symbol, with an…

  14. Auto sleep for Waze on iOS

    Is there a way to get Waze to auto sleep after use on iOS with Car Play? I use Waze in my car, get out of my car, and it’s still running in the background and actively tracking my location.

  15. Speed camera is less visible after new update

    After the recent update the speed cameras are hardly visible as its camouflaged into maps and other things please change it to how it was previously or make the speed cameras visible by making it bigger on the maps. I'm sure every waze users agrees with me.... If u check social media platforms others don't like it either.

  16. Android auto direction on second screen

    On the Honda Civic, the directions (i.e. a picture of a roundabout with the arrow coming out the right point) appears on the other screen behind the wheel. Google Maps correctly interfaces with this, but Waze displays every roundabout as a full U-turn, take the exit you entered on. Could this be fixed?

  18. iPhone - Set position of GPS Speed

    I am in australia and we drive on right hand side of the car.
    This is request for the display when using iPhone CarPlay.
    I recently swapped from Samsung to iPhone. On Samsung the GPS Speed is on the right side of the display and easier to quickly see.
    But on iPhone the GPS speed is on the left side of the display, which makes it harder to look over to see.

    Can a setting be provided to set where GPS Speed is locate - left ot right of the display,

  20. have a "slow vehicle" type with a CUSTOM TOP SPEED

    I drive antique vehicles which are often slow but i don't mind driving on highways so dont want to check "avoid freeways", i would just like that the navigtion algorythm takes my top speed (50mph for one car 65 for the other one) into account when calculating the route.
    this could be set in the "type of vehicles" menu, select "special" and have a customizable "top speed".
    then, even on a 80mph road, waze would only consider i'll make 50 and maybe reroute me on a shorter path !

    If you want to go further you could even set…
