include a live odometer (android)
As a bicyclist, I don't get a spedometer nor an odometer with my bike. Instead of paying an extra $200 for the setup, I decided to mount my phone to my bike hence me using waze, and having a difficult time deciding whether or not I should use waze, or a diff app for my trips as I like keeping track of my speed, distance, and time for my various trips.
If you can include a hud or at least an indicator for distance traveled, that would be awesome. I'm liking the inDrive app style

Personalized notification. Some of the notification I am always interested in others I am only interested in when I am pulling a trailer. Consider allowing personalization of the notification choices. When commuting to/from work when not pulling a trailer I am concerned with Police Officers on the side of the road and objects on the road. I drive the route most every day and know where the red light and speed cameras are located. I do not need to receive notification of these every day as they are static. Having a way to capture MOBILE speed cameras is…

Hazards voice input
The hazards should be voice input via phone. Wake WAZE with a command such as Waze hazard, then state the hazard. I don't report a lot of hazards since it's a distraction to look at my phone to select a screen of options.
Thank you. For the consideration.

Improve finding of places/business to drive to
Currently, when searching for a business or place to drive to, it often does not find the business. Or, it shows a list of businesses with the same name but no address or city. For example, if I search for "Kaiser" it shows a bunch of Kaiser Hospital names with no address or city. And it doesn't at all show the one that is closest to me. So, I don't know which one is closer. I end up often having to use google maps and navigation to find places and get routed there. Need to allow us an easy way…

Support with login difficulties
How about make it possible for someone to log into Waze from home? Or, when there is trouble with that, make it possible to recover a password? In many months of using Waze on my phone with no trouble, I am constantly unable to logon to the website, the password reset via reset never works (seriously - 0% success), and there does not seem to be an actual person to chat with about this. Very frustrating for what should be a helpful app.

Do I need a map
Do I need a map
A lot of my driving I know the route, I travel it every day and for there is no reason to change
What I need the the speed (Big Display)- speed alerts (When over the limit) - warnings - hazards, police and radar verbally called and heavy/standstill traffic when approaching recorded warnings within the last 30 minutes.
This would save on the map downloads and for me the use of mobile data, even though I have found this to be very small.
The maps are good for places I do not know, but for to…

Android Auto app without head unit
Please update Android auto functionality to include those of use just using the Android auto app on our phones and not through a vehicle head unit. I would love to finally be able to use Android auto, as I have been waiting for Waze to be supported, but I don't have an Android auto head unit.
19 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Popup traffic messages when screen is black
I suggest a function, if Waze runs in background or the phone display is turned off black, Waze not just says, but shows with graphic popup window the road and traffic messages, alerts etc.
Then it if no action was made by the user, the popup automatically disappear in predefined seconds laterMany times for many reasons we do not want charge the phone, but the "screen always on" mode drains a battery a lot. (IPhone and Android)

Automatically start saved route when in car (Android Auto/Apple Carplay)
It would be cool if you could save a router and set it to start automatically the next time you connect to android auto/apple carplay.
It would be a neat little time saver.
For people without auto/carplay this feature could use a specific Bluetooth device as car detection.

Please work with Ford and Sync so that Waze will work with an Android phone. Apple is not the only OS
Please allow for Android operation with Ford Sync the same way is works with IOS. I am not an apple fan but would like to have the same options as there are with iOS.

Automatic alert clearing
I find it frustrating that a speed or red light camera alert doesn’t clear itself automatically once past the location.
If you don't manually clear the alert it will permanently stay up covering other useful trip information.1 vote -

Police location
If you pass a speed cop sitting somewhere and immediately after you pass them you reach for your phone to update Waze, you could potentially get a ticket because they have a tendency to look into the cars as they pass and after they pass. My suggestion is to make it so whenever you push the police button? It actually puts the police 1/4 Mile behind where you push the button

Always announce cameras on smart motorways
Smart motorways have variable speed limits - suggest always announcing speed cameras regardless of the speed you are travelling at (motorway speed can vary depending on limit set)

App closure after Apple CarPlay shutdown
Please fix the app so it automatically closes after the car shuts off with Apple CarPlay. It used to do this until about 6-12 months ago. It’s annoying that Waze stays running when you get out of your car, draining your phone battery.

Ability to select different text scale.
The map screen seems designed for lower resolution phones. When used on Galaxy S4 the text is too small to read. Suggest adding a scale option.
