Indications regarding the police
I am very pleased about the alerts of the app, however there is one alert I would recommend to eliminate: proximity of police. It may be that with this alert we are providing very valuable information to criminals that will be very happy to avoid facing police officers, even avoiding police controls displayed to stop such criminals. In the same way these alerts provide a heads-up to drivers that may be driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, under excessive speed or with non appropriate vehicles. I do not endorse providing these alerts because of the mentioned shortfalls. Thank…

Simplified UI for logging common hazards
The idea is to reduce the number of clicks needed for "common" tasks. For example, I mostly use one of the three traffic levels for my side of the other side as well as vehicles stopped on the shoulder, again for both sides. If clicking the Hazard pin popped up this list as simple icons first, it's two clicks to complete any of those common tasks. There could still be a "more" option for other details and if it's a editable list then it could be customised per user.

Improper hazard alerts for vehicles parked on road shoulders
some roads have shoulders on one or both sides. We know that these areas are not traffic lanes, but are intended for vehicles to stop or park temporarily. However, every day, no matter which route I take, I keep receiving the alert “hazard reported – vehicle stopped.” I can see that people are reporting this incorrectly, since a vehicle stopped on the shoulder is not a hazard. This alert should only appear when a vehicle is stopped on the actual lane, truly obstructing the way. Therefore, I believe this warning should only exist for cars blocking the road, or it…

Discontinue the Still There question!
Please discontinue the Still There question! Not sure exactly when this started but I have been using Wayz daily for almost 10 years and only noticed this popping up recently. It's not necessary! And it's distracting and blocks the direction info. Who cares if we are there or not. Of course we are there! You have to be there to click "Not there!". Please please either stop this or at least make it optional. If it is optional, please let me know how to disable it. Thank you.

Kids in the car alert
Kids in the car alert so we stop hearing sad stories!
Add the option for parents to add this info to their account, maybe even to add their children's names. and upon arrival to destination, make the waze voice say something like: dont forget kids in the car, or dont forget sara in the car....
Same way you make the sound at the beginning of the drive to remind to turn on the lights .
Maybe even make a pop up alert that you can only close by pressing ok.....2 votes -

The search function in your app sucks. SO BAD!!!
And your app only says something went wrong when trying to report a problem. I've tried entering this on my phone 5 times. It NEVER works.
STOP MAKING ME CHOOSE FROM 5 PARTIAL MATCHES OF A SPECIFIC ADDRESS I JUST ENTERED!!!! JUST NAVIGATE TO THE ONE I TOLD YOU! AT LEAST LET ME SEE THE FULL ADDRESS I JUST GAVE YOU. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PICK FROM THREE ADDRESS THAT only SHOW AS "123 Main St" WHEN THEY ARE SEPERATED BY 100 TO 500 MILES!!!! FIX YOUR DAMN SEARCH FUNCTION!!!2 votes -
Android Auto display on instrument cluster on VW Group cars
I've hit this issue and according to research it has been reported by other people using Waze Android Auto on VW Group cars.
In my case I have a Skoda Superb, and when using Waze Android Auto navigation, the instrument cluster will often(/always) show incorrect symbols for turns.
It seems to mostly go wrong for roundabouts, which the UK has many of. Roundabout direction icons will either incorrectly show as just a turn, or in the worst cases a right turn at a roundabout will show with a U-turn symbol.
This confusing display has been enough to stop me using…

URGENT
Countless people want the same thing. Get on it. We need multiple starts and stop points like Mapquest allows. Stop delaying and do it. I love your app. Make it even better.❤️ Something about languages was on here, too. Listen to people that love you! We want to help.

Im requesting the address be displayed at the top of the navigation app until the user has completed the stop. Currently you cannot see the address your trying to locate “on screen” only if you remember the address in your head or if you go over the your “recent address “ listings. Sometime its hard to see the numbers on the houses so this feature would really help me locate addresses rather then slow me down and also risk myself of getting in an accident since I’m staring at the app to remember what address I’m looking for. Thank you

Stop the app suggesting a "better" route during a drive if it'd require a sudden change of lanes/direction
I've just dealt with a user report complaining that their app will sometimes suddenly change the route as they're approaching a major junction, and in order to follow the new route would require a late and potentially dangerous change of lanes.
Given we now have lane guidance and lane count details available in the map data, it should be feasible to work out when it might be a really crazy idea to be telling the user to start following a different route to the one they're currently on, due to the need to make a sudden change of lanes, and…

Half-way points or ETA to points on map
After a trip of several days where I knew I couldn’t make my destination before I needed to stop, I would like to se a feature where, given current conditions, Waze would show the halfway point, or possible future location based on driving time.
Let’s say my trip is 560 miles and 9 hours….if I drove 6 hours (I enter the time) where would I be? Where is the half way point? Or, if a select a point on the route map, how far and how long is the travel time.
Just more information.
Love my Waze…I always tell my…

Caravan Mode / Follow Me Mode
I've been thinking in a new mode for Wazers... I've been driving with family along the road in different vehicles, not once we've been able to keep the same speed or pace and we end loosing sight of where the vehicles are. In Mexico safety its a very important matter, and everytime we are not able to see where the other cars that are driving with us we call them or text them to see if everything is fine. I imagine a Caravan Mode in which multiple Waze accounts are linked for a trip and you can watch the vehicles…
