1. View map on mobile to select point on map, law enforcement

   Similar to Google Maps interface, in which I can pin a point on the mobile app and start navigation on Android Auto. I frequently use Waze to safely navigate to reported accidents, debris and disabled vehicles. Waze reports are significantly more location-accurate than my dispatcher saying "Respond to the area of Exit 45 for a crash." Before the last update, I could force stop Waze on my phone, reopen the app to the map, pin a location next to the incident and start navigation, then reopen the app on Android Auto to navigate. With the latest update, I can no longer force close Waze to view the map. It automatically starts up in 'Where To?'

   Great thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Please check this link, to learn more on how to navigate from a different start point.

2. Police/Fire Operation in Progress

   Sometimes in my area, the police or fire department will close a specific road or roads due to them dealing with an emergency, for example, when there was an apartment building on fire, the police blocked off all roads to traffic within 500m of the building, (like the car in the middle of the road positioned diagonally to prevent entry), and two officers positioned at each road block. But as soon as the fire was out, and the scene was cleared, the road blocks were removed.

   When these road blocks happen, the provincial/state/national transportation authority is NOT notified as these are local operations, therefore they do not show up on any map right now. It would be nice if Wazers could mark the locations of these road blocks, like wherever you see an emergency vehicle placed diagonally to block the road, so we can avoid getting stuck or lost in the roads around the road block. Also, this way, if the road block is by cops, it will let people know that these cops are busy, they’re not there to give out tickets, (unless you force their hand).

3. Flip or swap speed to other side of screen (for CarPlay) and/or make speed limit as big as actual speed.

   Hi. Love Waze, but this idea is one of three that would take it from good to great for me...

   Problem: For RH Drive vehicles, especially with CarPlay or where the phone is mounted to the left of the steering wheel, the speed limit (as opposed to actual speed) is too hard to read quickly while driving.

   Some solutions:
   1) A simple option to flip (or swap) the speed widget to the other side of the screen... and / or
   2) An option that displays the speed limit the same size as the actual speed, perhaps partly tucked behind the actual speed (so that the speeds appear as a figure of eight on its side).

4. motorcycle display preferences for carplay

   I have 5" carplay units on both of my motorcycles. (no this is not a display size issue). My preferred map software in carplay, is Waze, as I want the most crowdsourced information such as cops, traffic, construction, etc. My only problem on the motorcycle with carplay/Waze display is that the map is way too FINE and small print, the speed is too small, and red/black which are fairly impossible to read as they're both dark colors.

   My ask, and idea, and suggestion... either basically control over the display SIZE to make the fonts and boldness of the roads and road names much more significant. and control over the speed display to be larger, and display colors. -or- a motorcycle mode, which prioritizes those things knowing that the display may be somewhat small, 5 or 7" are the only ones for motorcycles. and it's going to be vibrating a bit, and the rider is in a helmet, with visor or some sort of vision disturbance other than none/glasses_only.

   The current version of carplay/waze for motorcycle use is , not usable. Even in cases where I know what street is coming up im looking for, there's no way I can see it on the mc carplay unit waze map. not not bc size... bc the display is a "fine line" and a small fine font.

   There is a motorcycle avatar icon to use, idk if you choose that it could auto-adapt the display to something motorcycle oriented with large bold font, thick bold street lines, and large high-contrast speed information., that would be really great. or separate controls, either way... please. pretty please LOL =)

5. Expand search results

   Make search results expandable. I was searching for the Physicians Offices at a large hospital. Search results showed ~ a dozen entries for that hospital, but you could only see the name of the hospital in the results. Had to select each result until I found the one I needed. Any result would have got me close enough, but there was one address for the main hospital, one for ED, one for PT, one for Physician Clinics .... Each at the same general location, but takes you to the correct faciility entry for the desired department. It would have made my search a ton easier if I could of clicked a + symbol to expand what was not visible, as opposed to having to open each entry up, go back a search again, and finally get to the one I wanted.

6. Automated Incident Emergency Detection & Location Screen Change and 3 type descriptor

   Unless it is your day job, and even then, most people faced with an emergency situation either as a victim or a witness, especially in a vehicle, will suffer immense rushes of adrenaline pumping around the body, any injuries invoke confusion as delayed shock sets in.

   Is there/ can there be any rapid single panic-proof (user option selected) - such as 5 second hold of fingers on the screen in two places simultaneously or gyroscopic sudden impact detection via phone or user holds max/min volume buttons at their max point for a duration (viz like Apple power down) - depending on user settings, additionally, such detection automatically engages the phone torch in user chosen: static, various rates of flashing or SOS. An EMS (country specific) CALL single button press, combined with further settings-related onscreen depiction graphics and text of the INCIDENT LOCATION, directions to then be boldly shown in large simplistic unfussy print on the screen- displaying three of the most common used international location descriptors: 1. What Three Words 2. Long/latitude coordinates 3. descriptive language versions e.g. “I am northbound on the XYZ nn miles from the xyz slip road opposite ZYX building “ combined with options such as send via SMS option &/or turn on handset camera (where applicable) to live link the incident scene for disaster planning teams assessments if necessary. Such crisis do not offer those present with clear thought either the victims or witnesses as shock sets in, and by providing easy-read, unfussy screen display, such pinpoint accuracy, that they can recite to the other end of the call, valuable minutes will expedite all emergency services response and potentially save lives and limbs, Most of these suggestions I envisage to be user settings selected as to how the user is automatically impacted with the change of screen in such situations. It could vary from a small overlaid window with just the 3 location options, all the way to a full EMS window with all options and flashing torches. Either way, in an emergency, something will help those present in providing essential location detail in those crucial minutes. If there is to be an option for ‘voice activated control’ then the initial part should be automatic from the AI not the user, in case they are incapacitated or unable to speak; the AI should time-out to non-vocal after a period so anyone in vision of the display can see the location, in case they are unable to move, but can use their own phone to call EMS instead.

7. Restore and add more alert choices and sub-choices - make the last more visible

   Hello, Waze. For unknown reason to us, your users, you are lowering the variety of the alerts that could be reported and/or their sub-options. The most striking example is the police reporting option where it is not possible to report a police from the other side. Please restore it. Please, add the following reports:
   1) stationary speed camera
   1.1) please add a detail about the direction the already added stationary speed cameras are pointing at - towards the incoming cars or at the same direction of the road lane group. Also add this as an option for the ones that one can add manually.
   1.2) Add a notice if the radar is new - e.g. less than a month-3 old so that one's attention can be better caught.
   2) mobile speed camera - there are police patrols installing mobile speed cameras that have a 600 m range
   3) speed camera signs - sometimes a stationary speed camera is missing but a warning sign is put to denote such
   4) toll tax patrols
   5) vehicle moving illegally in the opposite traffic direction - we have more and more frequently such cases here in Bulgaria
   6) burning car - especially this one since this way people can gather and help; I see there is an option to request help but does this option signal other Waze users or some road assistance from the country at hand?
   7) broken road - partially/fully, current/opposite direction lane
   8) protests

   Also noticed the following issues:
   1) Waze sometimes doesn't signal for radars earlier on but 200 meters before one reaches them. That wouldn't be much of an issue if the radar is pointing in the direction of the lane but would surely be if it points in the opposite direction. In all cases, it is best to signal for the radar 1 km before.
   2) Please make stationary and mobile radars standout more. Sometimes the avatars of the Wazers overlap them.
   3) Please better differentiate traffic light camera and speed radar. When I see red-light camera what I think of is a infrared speed radar. Even its pronounciation in Bulgarian is misleading - translated it means: traffic light camera. Ok, so that is a speed camera mounted on a traffic light or a camera that only detects vehicles that have passed through the traffic light when it was red? Please differentiate them better - both visually and audibly.
   4) The sub-options of a report have a very pale selection indicator - one can hardly see what sub-choise (s)he has made since the selection indicator on the light theme is just very very tainted - a very light gray on white background. Please use your Waze blue color as a selection background, for instance, so that one can distinctly see the selected sub-option of the report (s)he is currently doing
   5) Several times Waze is losing direction - it cannot detec the direction in which I am moving

9. A feature that allows drivers to get help quickly if they break down in a tunnel with Waze beacons installed

   When you enter a tunnel, and the Waze app senses this, it will put another icon on the screen, such as a red triangle with an exclamation mark, the same as your vehicles hazard light button.

   If you get into trouble, you tap this button, and it brings up a screen that gives the tunnel operator's name and phone number (button), along with the direction of travel and exact location, e.g., nearest road marker on the wall. This information would be critical for quickly getting CCTV vision, lane closure lights, and dispatch of tow trucks.

   It could also tell you to put your hazard lights on, call the operator, and the specific tunnel safety information supplied by the operator.

   The icon could appear or get more prominent (larger) and beep (voice) when your vehicle comes to a standstill in the tunnel to stand out to the driver, who might be starting to panic.

   If no Waze beacons are installed in the tunnel, pressing the button will give the Operator's name, number, and direction of travel from the last GPS signal.

   Additional Feature

   If you need to evacuate during an emergency, press an evacuate button. If the operator has inputted this information into the app, it could guide you to the nearest emergency door or fire extinguisher. Waze beacons could also be placed in emergency stairwells and other locations to provide more information.

10. Hello I was in Austria and in a section of 100km/h with the IG-L supplement, I didn't know if it applied to me and when I was driving 130km

    Hello

    I was in Austria and in a section of 100km/h with the IG-L supplement, I didn't know if it applied to me and when I was driving 130km/h waze didn't warn me that if my car runs on gasoline, it applies to me. It would be good, even if this tab is not active down in one strip, to explain to everyone what it means if it happens to light up in this section. In the settings, there is the type of vehicle and the preferred gasoline, and from that this information could be clear that it concerns me. So please, in the given area, 100 would be displayed below in a red circle and IG-L, if it lights up, you have to go 100 km/h. This would not be shown for electric cars because it does not apply to them.

    And one more observation.
    In one section down the hill, about 7 km long, there was a 100 km/h sign on the freeway and a measurement of about the distance between vehicles, 2 seconds of driving between vehicles. On the Waze screen, I saw a vertical green bar on the left, but it would be good to permanently warn at the bottom of the measurement of 2 seconds of driving, or an image with two cars and arrows between them with 2s on the arrow.

    I really like using this application and I was very pleased with the improvements, specifically 50 in the circle and the note that after *** m the speed will be reduced. It really saves gas and brakes, because if I'm 90 km/h and I take my foot off the gas, I arrive at the village at just 50-60 km/h.

    Thanks for your work

11. Roll back android auto update

    its broken to the point that its completely unusable in a 10 gen civic.

    the resolution seems to be set far too large for the small center console screen. What shows is a button that is far tool to show it appropriately, and the map looks like...well around the edges of the button you can sort of see some map and it seems to zoom really far out (while city driving).

    you cant see anything, around whatever button that is, let alone use it for anything.

    to make it worse, someone bright idea to make it default to have buttons for home or work directions, is up almost all the time.
    Who needs directions to places they drive to at least once everyday? who i ask you? why are those buttons taking up a quarter of the screen?

14. Reports and Hazard Alerts

    Speed camera alerts or warnings should sound regardless of the speed travelling. I would rather know something is there even if under speed. GPS speed monitoring is not as accurate as a vehicles speedometer, it's usually 5mph out.

15. Object on road warning often delayed resulting in warning too late to be effective

    The timing of object on road needs to be changed for better pinpointing location. More often than not, you are reporting while you are right on top of the situation. Traffic maybe darting around it, and do not have the benefit of seeing it early like vehicles on the side of the road because it's obscured by other vehicles in travel lanes. This causes the reported location to be late and less accurate to its actual location. This results limited effectiveness of a very important tool.

16. Drunk

    Subject: Innovative Idea for Enhancing Road Safety- Reporting Drunk Drivers on Waze.

    I propose adding a feature that allows users to report suspected drunk drivers directly through the app. Similar to how users can report hazards or police activity, a “Report Drunk Driver” button could alert nearby drivers of a potentially dangerous situation. This could help keep drivers safe by providing timely warnings and allow law enforcement to be notified for quicker intervention.

    This feature could include:
    • A Quick Reporting Option: Users could tap a button to report a suspected drunk driver, including the vehicle’s description and location.
    • Real-Time Alerts: Waze could notify other drivers in the area to exercise caution, helping to prevent accidents.
    • Integration with Law Enforcement: The information could be forwarded to local authorities for timely action, if necessary.

    I believe this feature aligns with Waze’s mission to improve road safety through community-based alerts, and it could be a game-changer for preventing accidents caused by impaired driving.

17. New London Sound Pollution Cameras!!

    Due to complaints from residents, In London, especially in Kensington and Chelsea, there are now cameras which give fines to drivers based on the loudness of their vehicles. We need to add these cameras to Waze.

18. Ability to add an E-Z Pass discount

    Where I live there are E-Z Pass discount programs depending on where you live. For example, because I live in a certain town, I get a discount on one of the tolls that I have to drive to get out of town. Normally, the toll is $1.25 but I only have to pay 10 cents. I feel like Waze often doesn't suggest that route because there is a large toll but for me there isn't so I'd rather go that way than a round about way to avoid the toll. And yes, I do know about the setting of avoiding tolls and I don't have that setting on for Waze to avoid tolls. But I feel like it doesn't offer me that route often because there is another round about way that avoids the toll but often adds a few minutes to the drive.

19. PLEASE add ability to mark lanes!

    Please add ability to mark which lanes are affected by reports especially crashes, stopped vehicles, debris/hazards and closures! Being able to quickly and easily navigate away from a problem would be a HUGE benefit over all other navigation apps!😊

20. Permanent “End of Pavement” Alert

    In several regions, especially on state highways and rural roads, there is an abrupt transition in pavement—for example, the end of the asphalted section and the beginning of a dirt or basalt-stone road. These sudden surface changes can catch drivers by surprise, particularly during low-visibility hours, adverse weather conditions, or on higher-speed roads.

    Technical and Road Safety Justification:
    Changes in pavement type can pose significant risks to drivers, such as:
    Rear-end collisions, when the vehicle ahead suddenly slows upon noticing the change in pavement;
    Loss of control and roadway departures, due to loose gravel, irregularities, or reduced traction on dirt or basalt surfaces;

    Increased braking distance, especially when transitioning from asphalt to a more unstable surface.
    A similar situation is already recognized by road authorities, and several highways physically signpost “End of Pavement.” The alert would follow the same usability logic and importance as the current “Sharp Curve,” “Complex Intersection,” and other warnings already implemented in the app.

    Implementation Proposal:
    Create a new type of permanent alert that allows editors to map points where the following occurs:
    End of asphalt pavement, or
    Transition to gravel/basalt stones/compact dirt.

    This alert would be displayed to drivers with adequate advance notice, allowing for planned speed reduction and improved operational safety, aligning with good practices in road signage and accident prevention.
