1. Share speed and alert erratic driving

   I suggest expanding the 'Share ETA' feature into an active safety pairing mode. When sharing a drive with a trusted, close contact, they should see a real-time telemetry dashboard that includes:

   Live Speed vs. Speed Limit: Display my current speed next to the local speed limit so they know I'm navigating conditions safely.

   Sudden Deceleration Alerts: A proactive notification if the vehicle drops speed abruptly (e.g., braking from 65 mph to 0 mph in 3 seconds), indicating a potential hazard or sudden traffic wall.

   Erratic Driving Flags: If the phone's gyroscope and GPS detect sudden, repeated swerving or erratic braking, the observer is quietly notified so they can call to check on the driver (useful for fatigue or medical issues).

2. Waze RoadTrip- A New Option for Wazers

   You will likely want to hear an idea that will expand your audience and retain your current customer base.

   Recently, I embarked on an excursion from Orlando, FL to Charleston, SC. It’s a fairly short road trip, but within those 6 hours, I wondered to myself how great it would be to see more than just the highway in front of me and the trees that lined the road. I quickly grew exhausted from seeing the same paved road, white lines, and billboard signs over and over again.

   I turned to my boyfriend with two hours left on our trip and said, “There should be an app, or a feature on the GPS, that allows a road trip option.”

   And that’s how I thought of Waze RoadTrip. An option on the Waze app that allows users to choose between a straight shot to their destination, or the option to take a trip with interesting routes and unique stops along the way.

   When a user selects the RoadTrip option, Waze would alert them to stops for unique things to do, highly rated local places to eat, historical areas, as well as the closest rest stops and the usual stops such as gas stations, just to name a few ideas.

   Furthermore, Waze would crowdsource from users who would add their own favorite stops and interesting facts about the places they’re driving through.

   Finally, Wazers could check in to these places, so that others might choose to meet with them based on their mutual interests and close proximity at any given moment.

   I realize this idea requires an investment by Waze and likely an integration with other existing platforms that offer a similar experience but require users to use separate applications. Waze RoadTrip will be worth your investment in creating a uniform platform that eases and pleases your user base.

   I would like to discuss this, and several other ideas, that I believe will be very profitable to your company and require only imagination and understanding of user experience.

3. 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.

7. have a "slow vehicle" type with a CUSTOM TOP SPEED

   I drive antique vehicles which are often slow but i don't mind driving on highways so dont want to check "avoid freeways", i would just like that the navigtion algorythm takes my top speed (50mph for one car 65 for the other one) into account when calculating the route.
   this could be set in the "type of vehicles" menu, select "special" and have a customizable "top speed".
   then, even on a 80mph road, waze would only consider i'll make 50 and maybe reroute me on a shorter path !
   
   If you want to go further you could even set a "garage" in wich we set each of our our vehicles (cars, motorbikes, ...), their fuel and their top speed. it would popup at the app launch, and at travel planing, and allow us to keep all settings in memory.
   sorry for english mistakes...i'm french....

8. Birthday mood/badge

   To make more social, it would be nice, just one day per year to have the option to people who is their birthday to show either a special mood (cake mood or wathever) or a birthday badge.

   In this way wazers can congratulate during your driving and make more social the aplication.

11. Less popups when starting a navigation

    When starting a navigation, a pop up ask if I want to share my ride. That's not that annoying but I would like an option to disable it.

    Im often starting a navigation from other apps, when the navigation is received by waze, it shows a first screen where I need to press on "received location". I click on it and then a second pop up telling me to share. And this is when waze dont pop to ask if I am a passenger. It sometime necessitie 3 press to start a drive. Google maps does it in 0 press when receiving a location by another app. Why asking me to press on received location, if you received it.. you know im going there.

    Maybe it's not annoying for the regular driver but as im using the function sometimes 20 times in an evening, it is. Add some settings please.

12. Please stop routing onto bike routes

    I live in an area of the country with a lot of bike routes. Those routes are established on the assumption that they are low in auto traffic, or least generally local-only traffic. That seems to prompt Waze to guide me onto them fairly frequently during heavy traffic times, but in doing so this violates that basic assumption of keeping them low traffic.

    As someone who bikes and drives regularly, I'd rather not see those routes grow in auto traffic as Waze adoption increases. If possible, please stop routing auto traffic onto those routes so that they can remain safe for folks on their bikes, it would greatly appreciated!

13. Rasta/Patois Voice

    Hello Dear Waze Team,

    My colleagues, friends and I are of the strong opinion that you should incorporate a Rasta-Patois voice in you fantastic App!

    When you start the route it could be the usual:

    Start-Up:
    Jaaah Rastafari, welcome to the waaze app, only way to cruise on the righteous path to zion, following to footsteps of the lion. Bless up.

    Turns and the usual:
    I and I a gonna turn left over eah.

    For police etc. don’t shoot this sherrif.

    Contact me if you have any questions or updates on this being developed!!

    Thanks

14. Display alternative ETA's at junctions

    When I'm driving towards an intersection junction along my route with several route alternatives, I would like a feature that displays hor much longer those alternative route choices are.

    Why?
    1) My commute has several alternative route choices that differ in meters and seconds.

    2) The first Waze default route choice is not always best.

    3) Sometimes I can plan my route better than Waze, and don't always choose the Waze route.

    4) Sometimes I prefer some variety in my daily commute.

    5) Sometimes I want to choose a different route just so I can see something different.

15. 2 Ideas!

    Hi, ive got two ideas: 1. When starting a new ride from a parking car, Waze does not know which direction the vehicle is facing. And because of Murphy's rules, most of the time it will plan the opposite route :) My suggestion is: before starting navigation I will have the option to calibarate the direction my vehicle facing (button that using the internal compass) . and now that Waze can understand that im facing east for example it can plan the right route. 2. adding an option so Waze know im driving a motorcycle so it can plane the route without considering traffic like a car. u r great, Thanks!

    Thank 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.

    As for the idea with adjusting car facing direction, it is under consideration.

17. Toggle current road to current town

    There are many times as I drive through different states, that I want to know what town I’m currently in. Copilot, another GPS program, allows you to tap on the arrow (your location) and the display would toggle between current road and current town. This is especially useful when notifying a friend your location, or looking for a hotel/food.
    Thanks!

20. Speed Bump Permanent Hazard Notifications Persistence

    The notifications for speed bump style permanent hazards should not stay on screen, once the driver has already driven past it. It does not add any meaningful information to the drive and only acts as a distraction or blocks part of the screen.
