  2. Grand parkway 99

    Add the Grand Parkway 99 in Harris county Tx. I switched to google maps until you add - doesn’t make sense not to as all toll roads in Tx are options.

  3. Ability to grade roads

    It would be nice to be able to grade the quality of a road. I always avoid taking up certain suggested roads, just because I know their quality is not good and prefer staying in traffic 3 more minutes than wrecking my car.

    Thanks

  4. Serious Issues with Waze

    You really need to fix the voice in your Waze app. Some of the time it speaks. Most of the time it stays silent. That's no good!

    I frequently have to pull over and look at the map.

    When it does speak, it always tells me of a turn too late for me to slow down or change lanes without potentially causing an accident.

  5. Accident alert to phone messages or email in real time in a chosen area or district

    Hi Waze team

    I’m from Sydney Australia,
    My staff and I all use Waze for our navigation and we love it.

    I have a suggestion,

    Is there a way to get a sound alert when someone reports an accident or heavy traffic in a certain district or area ?

    If we are able to nominate an area of our city that we would like notifications on,

    It could even send a text message to our phone

    This would be a great addition to help avoid accident or traffic before we even jump in the trucks

    Reg

    From Sydney

    🙂👍🏼

    Two days ago Barcelona suffered a terrorist attack. Police is still looking for a guy, but if people can repport where every police control is, this info useful yo avoid this controls.

    I m not talking about deactivate this alert permanently. But sometines, maybe during 24 or 48 h if there is a police operation called " Cage " could be usefull if you can deactivate this alert in a area.

  7. Maximum tolls want to pass or maximum tolls fees want to use.

    Please let us got more choice on the routes.

    Example in Malaysia, Melaka to Selangor have two type of routes ,One is tolls to tolls, others is No tolls routes.

    If choose no tolls routes then the whole routes will no pass any tolls but otw that should have a tolls that maybe Rm0.65 and Rm2.1 can cut short the routes. Which mean that have pass a tolls but the cost is less and save times.

    Hope you understand what i want to said.

  8. Malaysian Accent for Malaysian Roads Please

    Why not use Malaysian voices for Waze in Malaysia? Right now the female voice option I choose for Malaysia pronounces Jalan Sultan Ismail as "Juh-lane Sull Tonne Izz Mail" and it annoys me.

  9. Give us back familiar voices.

    Many people have expressed their disappointment and frustration that the voices in Waze have been changed with claims that the new voices are more "natural". On the contrary, many of us feel the voices are cold and we want the former versions back. We use the Italian Sofia and the new voice has no warmth or connection for us. Many other users have said the same of the English Thomas and Kate and other voices from varying languages. Please return our familiar navigators! The world is alienating enough without these changes!

  10. Allow a start/stop feature for hazzards/lane restrictions, traffic jams, etc.

    When traveling through a construction area allow a start/stop point so others can choose atl. routes. This can also be for speed reductions, accident sites, etc.

  11. Additional reporting options.

    Two immediately spring to mind:
    1. when reporting a weather hazard, it would be great to be able to report "sunstrike".
    2. the only way to report a stopped car is as an object on the side of the road. The only hazards on the road are things like construction. I have had multiple occassions where I have come across a vehicle stopped on the road. These have not been an accident, rather they have been due to breakdown. An option in the "on road/in lane" category to advise of a stopped vehicle would be great.

    I love the app…

  12. Better customization options in the settings

    I think you should be able to customize your own GPS to be able to avoid certain streets and also to always take Highway as first route priority

  14. supermarkets, Backery status for covid19 crisis

    The idea is to known the amount of people and stock in supermarkets and bakeries open near everybody before go out to purchase any product, in this way we can avoid have any lots of people waiting in dangerous queues with high virus transmission possibilities.

  15. Add the mallisham parkway as an alternate route west of Tuscaloosa to reach hwy 82 from I 20

    As above, please add Mallisham Pkwy ( a toll road) as an alternative to reach hwy 82 from I20 west of Tuscaloosa.
    Going through Tuscaloosa on the incomplete I 359 is time consuming. .

  16. highway wrong direction car alert

    it could be useful to add an alert to inform other wazers that a car is driving in wrong direction (very useful for the Highways). The alert will blink to any wazer smartphone display that is driving that way before the alert point.
    This feature could permit alerted drivers to mantain the right lane till the end of the emergency.

  17. Shortcuts for Hazard Reports

    When using the Hazard Report feature in Waze I often find that:

    1) I use 1 to 3 reports a LOT more often than any others.

    2) I often find that selecting these hazard icons using the current method is fiddly, dangerous when driving, and slow, resulting in the report being sent late, often about 100 meters or more past the hazard.

    My improvement idea is to add 1 to 3 hazard SHORTCUTS that "slide out" for selection from the existing hazard report icon (yellow triangle) on the FIRST touch, they would then "slide in" again after selection to avoid

  18. Protest the removal of the police warning feature!

    The Sheriff's association is using the tired old excuse that the police warning feature in the Waze app "could be used by terrorists." That is a RIDICULOUS excuse! The truth is that they just don't want us having the ability to warn others about their friggin' speed traps, and they don't want us avoiding tickets! Terrorists my shiny white butt! They use all of their technology against us, and then when we have something to use against them they just don't like it. This feature in Waze is just the next step above radar detectors. Well we got those…

    Android auto usage: Last update is not ok at all. The route symbol is small and far, while it.s a button used often during the drive. The routes to be selecter have no longer different colors. It.s very hard to select the preferred route. The lanes are now in the most difficult corner to be observed, while again is something often to be used/seen. Please revert back everything.
