  1. GPS SIGNAL FOR WIFE.

    I was out 4x4ing with a friend and got stuck. We had no cell coverage and no internet, so the only way would be by using GPS. Having a distress option so my wife could see we were ok and to stop her calling the police. Having a distress icon that can change colour green ok, orange stuck but ok and red for send help or something to that nature. Only thing would be she would be needing to log into my account via her iPhone or on my home PC to access this. I SLEPT ON THE COUCH THAT…

  2. Hazard link fix

    The car on roadway report link was removed. While being on the shoulder is probably the most seen report for cars stopped, a car stopped in the middle of the road is also a serious hazard. I think this link should be added back.

  3. 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.

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, Waze is now integrated with several audio apps including Spotify, Deezer, TuneIn, iHeart Radio, Pandora and more. Just go to Settings > Audio Player and pick your favorite app.

  5. Contribution reward for driver who give way during heavy traffic

    during heavy traffic jam, driver hit the gas & stop again, the traffic condition remain not smoothly for very long period.
    can waze pop up a message to driver, drive slow to 20km/h(or some specific detected speed ) to keep distance with front car & change to slow lane. and who accept this get the reward.

    and always pop up a mesage teaching driver don't cruise at the fast lane, give way to other & collect reward when they accept

    of course if gps can really detect the driver who really change lane, the reward ranked are much valuable

  6. 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…

  8. Add rerouting on a route that has slowed down are block by a hazard.

    Is there a way to add a button and that when on a current route, you would be warned that the way is slowing down then it will automatically ask you if you want to reroute to avoid the congestion or accident.

    On reporting make it less choices so it can be reported quicker with one key touch to keep drivers focused on the road.

    Add a way to make a flag so you can report that issue later when your at a stop light or at the end your trip.

  9. Automatic unit selection based on location/country.

    Suggestion for Automatic Speed Unit Switching in Waze

    A pop-up window should appear when crossing into a country that uses a different speed unit (km/h or mph), allowing users to switch without interrupting navigation.

    For example, I drive in the UK, where I use miles and mph. When I enter France, which uses kilometers and km/h, Waze could display a prompt:
    “Would you like to switch to km/h?”
    This would let me change the unit instantly instead of stopping navigation and digging through the settings menu.

    Alternatively, Waze could switch automatically based on location or offer a setting with options…

    On route changes suggestions, please can you add a setting that is a kind if accept or ask for confirmation, and if the route change pop ups it auto disappears after 1 minute? It's against the law in UK to touch the screen when moving, so having this pop up a d it stays on the nav screen until you accept or cancel is a real problem! If I can have the settings to auto accept or request , and then if it pops up on screen and I can't stop the car to accept or not it minimises or…

  12. Add Pause Button to Route Guidance

    I use Waze a lot for local driving and frequently take small diversions to convenience stores or maybe swing by another store or a friend's house a few blocks away that is not on the original route.

    I find it very hard to believe that no one has ever added a Pause button to route guidance.

    I have seen it rationalized that it would be distracting while you're driving.

    I would submit that the app continuing to recalculate a new route while you are diverting is ever more distracting. Especially, if you decide to stop the route because the continual…

  13. Please remove from your street listing Canada Road, between Woodside Road and I280 in Woodside, CA 94062, not appropriate for commuters

    Please remove from your street listing Canada Road, between Woodside Road and I280 in Woodside, CA 94062, this two lane country road is not appropriate for commuters. It has not stop lights, and only two stop signs. Long lines of cars block up this street during evening commute hours.

  14. Android Auto blocking scrolling

    When using Waze over Andoid Auto, it blocks selections until you stop the vehicle. It is rather irritating as it is possible to use Waze if I disconnect from Android Auto, select address on the handset and reconnect, which requires 5x as much distraction.

    It is OK to warn to watch the road instead, but it should release the further selection after a while like the phone app.
    The most irritating is when I have just reached the desired
    address and you mask it with the blocking warning :(
    I advise that you unblock the screen after a while (10-15…

  16. Unassisted Left Turn / Unassisted Crossings

    Please add an option to avoid unassisted left turns in North America. Difficult intersections helps, but doesn't help someone with limited confidence in making left turns whether it be from disability (limited range of motion), experience, etc. Many routes have slight deviations to make turns safer. This same logic may also apply to crossing a busy highway without a light. In these cases, it may make sense to make a right, then a left, and another right - if possible.

    An option to route the driver to a left assisted by a stop light, or an all-way stop or a…

  17. I

    I live on Rua Marieta, Jardim Paulista, 01442-010, Sao Paulo, a 100 meter long, 6 meters wide street in a quiet neighborhood. After Waze, kids stopped playing in the streets and there are traffic jams all day long. Quality of life for residents has deteriorated considerably. Please stop suggesting this street.

  19. Landscape functionality and ongoing waze issues

    1. Never block speedometer including with photo request, sped limit reached, text box. Never!
    2. Return and always keep speedometer in bottom left corner - currently often blocked including when speed reached which increases chance of speeding (landscape use). Squish main screen and do not cover with limit reached warning.
    3. Adjustable text size and speedometer size independently. Shrink window for police and other notifications to show under content and have banner push up to shrink... currently banner pushed speedometer up which is blocked by directions s panel (landscape use).
