Would it be possible to have the map zoomed in all the time?
I love the app! However, I frequently drive on twisty, back-woods "country" roads. The frequent sharp curves are not always reflected on the map; the map will show a gently curving road instead. The speed limit is usually above the Waze threshold. It would be great to have an option that would allow the map to be zoomed-in full-time.

Fluid traffic areas
Waze only reports traffic jams. It would be useful to also mention the fluid traffic areas.

Use front-facing camera to do things (if available)
I position my iPhone in a cradle that attaches to the windscreen, and I think that I'm not alone. This camera has a pretty unobstructed view of the road ahead, which Waze could use to produce awesomeness! I can immediately think of a number of cool things that you could do with this, depending on how much image processing you want to do. Here are some user stories for you :)
As a: User concerned about recording details for insurance purposes in the event of an accident
I would like: Waze to record the field of view in front of me on a loop of user-selectable duration and save that loop to my videos in the event of an accident (as detected by the device's accelerometer, or other means)So that: I can review the details of any incident at a later date
As a: Waze user that likes to help other Waze users by posting traffic updates
I would like: Waze to examine the field of view in front of the vehicle (in conjunction with the GPS-detected velocity) and automatically determine if the traffic is heavy, or and prompt me to see if I want to send an update (or just do it automatically, if I've given Waze permission to do so in some settings option)So that: I don't have to manually do this, and the frequency of updates can be greatly increased
As a: Waze user that likes to help other Waze users by posting hazard updates
I would like: Waze to examine the field of view in front of the vehicle and detect common road hazards (objects in the road, on the shoulder, etc)So that: I don't have to manually do this, and the frequency of updates can be greatly increased
As a: Waze user that likes to help other Waze users by posting hazard updates
I would like: Waze to examine the field of view in front of the vehicle and detect if traffic or hazards that have previously been reported are now not thereSo that: Other users don't get out-of-date information about events on their route
As a: Waze user that is concerned about tiredness while driving
I would like: Waze to monitor the driver's posture, eyes and motion via the front-facing camera and look for signs of tiredness
So that: I can recieve a loud alert in the event that I inadvertantly become drowsy, which either suprises me into a more alert state so that I can safely stop, or alerts other occupants of the vehicle to the situationOK, that's some camera ideas. Here are some other ones:
As a: Driver planning a long journey
I would like: Waze to (have the option to) prompt me to stop approximately every two hours and propose some local stopping place (service station, restaurant, cafe, hotel, etc)So that: I find it more difficult to accidentally drive for unadvisably long periods
As a: Driver that is travelling with at least one other person in the vehicle
I would like: To be able to install a "Waze: Co-pilot" app on an iPad (Air, mini, pro, etc) that would interact with the current Waze app (lets call it "Waz; Navigator") and allow the vehicle's "co-pilot" to analyse various navigation options on the "secondary" device and make course changes that will be seen on the "navigator" device.So that: The driver doesn't have to be distracted with making changes and decisions while the vehicle is in motion
As a: Driver, with a co-pilot receiving, receiving a prompt to stop
I would like: Information to be presented to the co-pilot to be sourced from some third-party travel information provider, such as Trip AdvisorSo that: We can crowd source reviews of the standard of stopping places
As a: Driver without a co-pilot receiving a prompt to stop
I would like: To simply be told to stop "at the next available stopping place"So that: I'm not needlessly distracted from the task of driving the vehicle
As a: Waze user who wants to see additional, non-traffic, information on the map
I would like: To be able to see a variety of "overlays" on top of the current Waze mapSo that: I can see things like the wind speed and direction on the road ahead, or the amount of rain, or the temperature (in case of ice, for example), or the gradient of the terrain
As a: Waze user that has placed the device out of easy reach
I would like: Waze to listen for the direction "Waze!" and be able to perform various tasks through voice interactions
So that: I can drive with minimal distraction due to trying to interact via touch
[
I'm thinking something like:
"Waze, report heavy traffic"
"Waze, report hazard on the shoulder of this carriageway"
"Waze, plot route to <some kind of address>"
"Waze, take me home"
"Waze, reroute around an obstruction for 5 miles"

click on the list of directions and be taken to the map
There are many occasion in which I use Waze to find routes to places I don't know. Also, there are occasions in whch waze suggests alterrnative routes to escape traffic.
There are many times that Waze directs me to streets and places that I have never been through. When I look at the complete list of directions, many times the list contains street names that are actually completely meaningless to me, as I just don't know them. It would be nice if a a feature could be added that allows me to click on a particular item of the list of directions and be taken to the map corresponding to that instruction. In that way, I can also evaluate if Waze is not inadvertedly leading me into a dangerous neighbourhood.There are many occasion in which I use Waze to find routes to places I don't know.

Add checkbox to opt for dirty road/toll before chosing a destination.
After selection the destination, we should be able to select if we want to take toll roads or dirty roads. It will be very helpfull. Its a pain changing it in the menu 3/4 times a day. or I will never know the real best route for me!!!

Obsolete or erroneous report canceleation
Toulouse, France : at regular time traffic is displayed as jumped but sometimes it is not so it would be a good idea to give client the possibility to say "traffic is light". Another example concern some events obsolete like a car stopped on road that is no more here ...
Thank you for your very good job !

Redundant steps
App would be easier to use if you didn't have to annoyingly hit the word "go" more than once for my trip to start navigating.
Hitting "Go" should not come with an "are you sure" option. So redundant in a bad way.2 votes -

Pictures we take and from within Waze and post to Waze should also store in our Smartphone Photos.
I recently drove past a car engulfed in flames, shot it and posted to the Waze community as a Hazard. The picture was very striking and I wanted to send it to my brother later and assumed it would be in my iPhone Photos, but it wasn't. I assume then pix taken from inside Waze don't store on our phones? If not a missed setting on my part, I would highly request that we get to keep the photos we shoot while within Waze. Perhaps this should be a Setting. I wouldn't ask the user each time a picture is shot to minimize distractions while driving. We can always delete unwanted photos from our Photos library later when not driving. But I definitely want the option to keep pictures I take for the Waze Community.
