  1. Change of colour on the map as you navigate a route

    When driving a route it would be nice if the colour of the route on the map would change so you would know we're you are going and were you have been. Some times when there are a lot of turns it can become confusing

  2. calque

    Bonjour,

    Je suis chauffeur de taxi à l’aéroport de Toulouse Blagnac.
    Depuis quelques années, nous utilisons une tarification par zone soit 4 zones. Nous avions créé un calque sur MAPS qui nous permettais de bien connaitre la zone tarifaire. A l’heure d’aujourd’hui lorsque nous avons un doute nous sommes dans l’obligation de saisir l’adresse sur MAPS puis une fois la zone confirmée, nous devons ressaisir l’adresse sur WAZE. WAZE étant l’application utilisé par l’intégralité des taxis.
    Voici ma problématique et ma question. Est-ce qu’il est possible sur Waze de créer un calque comme sur MAPS (j’ai retourné le web mais…

  3. restore roads on map

    When you zoom out too far on the latest version, all of the roads disappear. This is just weird and not how a map should work. The major roads should remain regardless of how far out you zoom.

  4. Let users contribute GPS traces to Open Street Map

    I just don't see why waze hasn't fully embraced www.openstreetmap.org I've been asking since day one for a way to contribute my GPS traces to both waze and Open Street Map but my suggestion has been ignored so far. I think waze, Open Street Map and the community would all win if this collaboration happened. See http://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59225/suggestions/982979 for the cartouche suggestion.

    as cougar mentioned, this is already possible under the archive of the edit map (cartouche). If you are not sure how to do this, please write to us – alpha@waze.com – and we will explain more

  5. Eu gostaria que tivesse assistentes de faixas de rodagem no Waze assim como tem no Google Maps

    O assistente de faixas de rodagem é aquelas setinhas que ficam em cima indicando com antecedência em qual faixa se deve ficar para pegar a próxima entrada.

  7. Show address in final navigation screen when approaching.

    I LOVE that Waze now accesses my Apple calendar to see my appointments & the time. SO very helpful, as Waze is my go to map app (I am an on the road sales rep). But I have to exit Waze & return to my calendar entry to see the exact street address I am looking for. The final navigation screen will have the name & phone number of the person I'm trying to visit, but not the address, the most important part. Really annoying!

  8. Re-Organize Speed Trap Buttons

    When editing the map a lot of stationary speed traps are reported but not approved. They are reported on positions where mobile speed traps (Police notifications) are / would be. As a user who only uses the client I would first go to speed trap and report it instead of reporting a police hazard. The result is, that this trap is not reported unless it is approved. Another button in the speed trap menu would help, for instance "mobile speed trap" with a time stamp. The same button can be shown in the police menu for the users who are…

  9. Rerouting dialog is obtrusive

    When waze reroutes or changes ETA it pops up a dialog "Rerouting" or "Your ETA has changed due to ...". Especially the rerouting dialog is annoying as it obstructs a clear view of the map which you most likely need at that moment. A small spinner in the corner of your screen (maybe in the green nav-bar?) and the audible warning should be enough. Maybe a "Don't show again" button on those dialogs?

  10. Help Me!!! button

    Deniss from forum suggested this idea: Waze should have Help Me Button, so a Wazer with car trouble can set his icon as needing assistance and another Wazer can see a fellow in trouble on map and help him out.

  11. Add/Remove Categories for Map Editors

    There are quite a few missing "obvious" categories, such as Self Storage, Tobacco/Vaping shop, Headshops, Equipment rental (Not just car), Towing service, Motels (Even though you have hotel) etc.

    There are also a few redundant categories, like "Pool" and "Swimming Pool".

    A little help, Waze team?

  14. Seeing other wazers

    Not sure what is the benefit of seeing other wager in the maps. I found it is more confusing 😕. I would rather see service stations and chain restaurants (eg. KFC).

  15. Finger hold for icon placement

    When placing a hazard or police location on the map, currently you have to tap on the screen to bring up the choices, tap for police, tap again for their location and then tap again to place it on the map. Why not after the first tap, if you keep your finger on the screen, automatically show the options, slide your finger to the one you want, and then once your finger is released, the icon drops straight into the map.
    Simple and less steps to get the right icon on the map and also lessens the time concentrating on…
