Layout problem with iPhone 14Pro
Speed display is behind dynamic island in Apple iPhone 14Pro Mobile phone. It is quite annoying to guess if the speed is 61 or 81 when only last number is visible.

Some bugs encountered with the application
I use Waze very frequently for my work. Both as a GPS and as an assistant for road hazards.
I've noticed a few anomalies in Android Auto.When I approach a speed camera, Waze informs me about it and the distance. As soon as I have passed the zone, the "Speed camera" indication remains on the screen and Waze does not provide any other information.
I have taken some pictures of the problem encountered. If you want them, let me know where I should send them.Thank you.

Better iPad interface.
The iPad interface is a bit cumbersome to use while driving. I find many of the buttons are too small. I have my iPad docked in a RAM mount next to the stick shift, so its right next to my shift hand.
Different screens appear in different sizes (like the event selection screen is cut in half when reporting a hazard or similar).
Also, display of speed and similar information in the lower right should be larger, much like the turn-by-turn directions in the lower left.
I would also appreciate any prompt buttons to be larger. If the buttons could…11 votes -
Display speeds higher than 234km/h.
GPS devices are allowed in passenger aircraft, and work fine with offline maps.
It seems, though, that the speed indication doesn't go above 234km/h.
Airplanes easily exceed this.
Yes I know the primary use is for driving, but sometimes it is nice to use other ways.

Reports ahead
It will be great if the user can choose the alerts types in "Reports ahead" tab. Even if turned off in Reports, they are still shown in the list. For example I'm only interested in police and speed cameras reports ahead. Instead I see countless "Speed limit" , "Dummy camera" , "Road bump" in X kilometers.

Special calculation and result for motorcycle despite traffic jam
Hi all,
Sorry I do not want to create a duplicate but rather synthesize the idea (other posts talked about but are not totally clear)
It would be cool to create a special motorcycle calculation, for big towns with big traffic jam (ex. Paris-France...) :
the faster way, whatever, even if cars are bumpers to bumpers.Because even if you ride slowly between cars, it remains faster than another way (excepted if road is closed by police or whatever).
It should be possible to choose this kind after choosing destination. For exemple, it would be really practical to have, after…
15 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already has Motorcycle Mode included in the app. To change your vehicle type, tap Settings > Car Details > Vehicle type.

hi, why do I have to keep reporting the same roadworks twice a day? These have been at the same spot, causing traffic jams, for the last two weeks. There should be a facility to enter an estimated time that roadworks will be present. The site could be linked to a pop uo question similar to the speed cameras, 'not here??' This would allow others to confirm when the roadworks were finished. '

redlight calculation
Can you calculate red lights by using current users data when they stop and start?
When I drive home you then could give me an estimation on the speed to keep to hit green all the way or to hit green at the right time or wait the least amount of time at a red light.Some lights change every minute and others at different intervals but could you figure this out using gps data (speed etc.)?

Control audio warnings as a user option
In the audio, there are only 3 options. Please add a 4th option as a " user option" There you can not only set the type of warning, but also control the amount of " before exit/turn " warnings. Today, you either have all of them ( 3 ) or nothing. I would like to have for example only 1 waning for exit + Police + speed camera and nothing else. Anyone can chose and set his own preferences on the audio notification.

Map
It is too hard to see the traffic delays, speed of the tragic on particular roads, what kind of hazard is being reported. The map before this was very user friendly and it was super easy to glance at the map and decide which areas/roads to avoid. Now I have to really analyze the map and bring the map into zoom so much that the road names are no longer listed. I now check the other apps to glance over the traffic and rely less on Waze

Show Speedometer outside Path Navigation
Without the need to define a path, having the option to show the Speedometer outside a Navigation Session would be useful just to show the speed of the current user, either on a car, motorcycle, on foot, etc.
This, with the addition of a full-screen Speedometer, would be even great.
2 votesGreat news! This functionality is already available in Waze. Via Speedometer settings you’re able to set speedometer and/or current speed limit to be always displayed in app – even in free drive mode.

speedometer alert
I would love the speedometer sound alert to have an option for keeping the sound on until you drop back down to the speed limit. No it chimes very softly once when you ecceed the limit and then nothing. There should be sound options and volume options too. With all the other alerts i often miss the small chime telling me im going to fast. Then theres no way to know when im back at the limit unless i keep looking at the little speedometer on the screen. The more i can do without taking my eyes off…
5 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Alerts based on Route
Since Waze has the ability to track your trips I came up with this.
Lets say you drive to work everyday. You know their are 5 Speed Cameras, 4 Construction Zones and 6 Potholes. Waze should automatically disable it's alerts if you are familiar with the Route.
Lets say it disables it when Waze knows you have been on the same Route for at least a week.
Now if for example later on in the future there is a new Construction, or SpeedCamera installed on the same route it alerts you since it's new.
This would eliminate the need…

In The Netherlands we have speed limits on the highway
The speedlimits in The Netherlands are on a lot of parts of the highway From 19h (7 pm) to 6h (6 am) = 130 or 120 kilometer per hour
From 6h (6 am) to 19h (7 pm) = 100 kilometer per hour.
Now the Waze app calculates arrival time always with 130 km/h. This needs to change if you want to have a reliable navigation app.1 vote -
Remove "Missing Overpass" map error report category.
That vast majority (all but maybe 1 or 2, in all the time I have been editing) of reports for "Missing Overpass" have been for overpasses that exist on the map, but are invisible at highway speeds on the app. Because some users do not understand how speed-based zoom works, that assume these overpasses are missing, and report every one they drive under until someone responds to a UR explaining why they don't see them. This is causing a large amount of unnecessary UR's and subsequent follow-up. In the US anyway, it would seem we could do completely…
