I'd like to turn off the notification for a car on the side of the road but still listen to Rodger Federer's voice
The Car on the side of the road ding is so loud and obnoxious that I don't want to hear it. I still want to listen to the voice guidance. Please, either get rid of the ding or give me the choice to turn off alerts and still have the voice guidance.

Improve Waze for all (professional drivers like taxi drivers, truck drivers and bus drivers as well)
Feedback for Waze Improvements (Australia-specific but globally relevant):
1. Map and Speed Limit Accuracy
• Please update maps and speed limit data more frequently, especially in Australia where road rules and limits are often updated.
• Ensure that the speedometer always shows the correct speed limit without disappearing or failing, as this can mislead drivers and cause unintentional speeding.
• Improve reliability so the speedometer never stops working unexpectedly.
2. Audible Alerts and Driver Focus
• Introduce louder and clearer spoken alerts for every speed limit change, so drivers do not have to look at their phone screen.
• Provide…4 votes -
In app widget
A great feature would be an in app widget for reports. Let the users choose a report shortcut to be added on the map. Just push one button of choice to send a report. It would be much better for safety.
My reports consists mostly of car on shoulder, I’d love to add a shortcut for that on my map.6 votes -

How to increase pedestrians and cyclists safety
How to increase pedestrians and cyclists safety
By defining new Waze modes of operation, the central computer could get the location of any pedestrian or cyclist connected to the Waze application.
The following safety features could be specially helpful when the weather is misty or rainy:
The central computer could derive that a pedestrian is crossing a wide road and could inform the near by vehicle drivers. As a result the driver will slow down.
When driving on a narrow road, any car driver could be warned that he is approaching of a walking pedestrian or of a bicycle rider…7 votes -
Number Coded Scheme
If you're familiar in the Philippines, there's a number coding scheme where cars can't be on the road at a certain day and time based on the number plate ending. Suggest if you can show in the map maybe shaded in red or a red zone where they aren't allowed to go so driver can take alternative routes. This can be used for no tresspassing zones as well. Shows only as a warning but they can still drive. Similar from Tom Cruise's movie 'Oblivion.'

Option to show gas stations/restaurants/highway stops on the route (also from Android Auto)
On Android Auto it would be so nice to have a feature to search for the
nearest fuel stations/restaurants/highway stops around the route.
This feature exists on almost any built in car navigation services.7 votes -

Mark parking permit
I live in a big city where a parking permit is used. I would like to mark the streets where the permit is valid. An idea is to fill in the streets names where I can park, and mark them with a color on the map. After the street names are filled in, the map will show me if it's allowed to park my car of not.

show public transportation routes
We're in a climate crisis and everybody should drive less when there are alternatives available.
Waze should help with that by suggesting Public Transportation or bicycle routes when selecting a destination, when those routes are viable alternatives (don't bother showing a 3h bus route for a 10 min drive).
This could be similar to Google Maps and use the same data.
Just by showing that there are alternatives, the user might be tempted to try them.
This might be specially useful when driving in cities that have car restrictions, dedicated bus lanes or good bicycle infrastructure that rivals congestion, where…9 votes -

Latest saved addresses
Hi Good Day
I trust you are well.
My name is Brad and I'm a big fan of Waze. Been using it ever since I discovered it. Thank you for creating such a fun and practical navigating app.
I have a suggestion though, if I may, please can you make an adjustment to where newly saved addresses are shown. When I plan a new journey to a place I put in the address and save it to use later. The update I would like to suggest is to have the latest saved addresses appear at the top of the saved…

iPhone4G - landscape mode not correct at time zero
more of a bug really.
If Waze is running before I rotate the phone then the switch to landscape mode works. If I launch Waze after rotating the phone (like I do when I snap the phone into my car mount before starting Waze) then the display is stuck sideways.3 votes -
Add the sailboat car icon back!
Their was a sailboat icon you could have in the map display under “car icon” and it very well suited the boat I’ve been driving on the road. I think that it should be added back. It also made it so I have no icon on my map since it was removed.

Automatic speed adjustment
I made a patent for an interface between the waze and the vehicle in order to adjust the speed according to the speed limit on public roads , thus enabling a more secure , peaceful direction and within the traffic rules , minimizing risk of fines for speeding, car accidents and contribute to a better fluidity of the road . This device can be enabled or disabled at the discretion of the driver or the possible and future traffic laws.

I also want to point out this setting can also potentially miscalculate traffic flows. A few days back, during heavy rain, waze was showing
I want to point outthat vehicle type setting can potentially miscalculate traffic flows. A few days back, during heavy rain, waze was showing the route to be congested, when in fact traffic was smooth flowing, albeit at a slightly slower speed due to heavy rain showers.
In Malaysia, when it rains, motor cyclists take shelter under flyovers and bridges. Therefore, if their waze was on, it would make your app think traffic is at a standstill.
Another issue with motorcycles is, in Malaysia, Lane Splitting is not an offence, and most times, during slow traffic, motorcyclists travel at much higher…
