Voice navigation starts route straight away
When on a route I sometimes need to say 'take me to the nearest gas station' when I need to fill up and do not know the nearest but want to add a stop.
However it then prompts me to click on a particular option, which is illegal when driving. You should implement 'select XXX' feature or just start a diversion to the nearest so I don't have to pull over to touch the screen.
Even when saying 'Take me to BP insert town' it still has to do a search and you have to click - it won't…

Vibrate Notifications
Give the user the option to turn-on "vibrate notifications" in addition to voice. Many times when driving I am distracted talking to a passenger or listening to the radio and miss a turn.
It would be great if my phone would also vibrate. I would like to have this option for police notifications as well.
If this were an option, then those that don't want vibrate notifications don't have to use it.9 votes -

Wouldn't it be great to be able to exclude a freeway or particular road from your planned route?
I already summed it up in the title, you kids are the pros.. But I would love to have more options for routes and options to avoid a freeway or major thoroughfare.
Oh and just an irrelevant side note; that American woman's navigation voice, ug I can't listen to it. She sounds like your mean teacher from middle school- but the American guy is great.

Make Jordan Peterson available as a Navigational Voice
Simply make Jordan B Peterson available. Would be amazing to have things such as "Turn Left... Roughly Speaking" or "Keep Right. Life is Suffering". That would make my ride way more funnier.

Geotagged event triggers
Allow the user to define an event such as playing one of your own sounds, display one of your own photos or play a music track at or near specific places. Example uses - get onto a fast stretch of road and your music changes, and changes back when you get into town again. Get a mile from a toll booth and a note appears telling you how much money to have ready. Drive near a grocer and your recording says "don't forget to get the eggs". Go past a tourist attraction and a recording tells you about it. You…

Security camera voice alert irrespective of type of camera ahead
The app should notify irrespective of being within the limit because the speed reflecting on the app is 3km lesser than the real at all the given times.
Also, the app doesn't even make a distinctive alert sound when there's a camera ahead.I request you to please integrate the verbal notification for a security camera irrespective of the type of camera installed and irrespective of whether the vehicle is under the speed limit coz at a lot of times due to many reasons like conversing while driving, thinking, managing kids etc. and it skips out of the mind.

Waze Own DataBase for post codes in Portugal easy search and update by users/editor's.
Hello.
We know that beetween a name street that pops 2 options on the screen near you, and you don't know wich one to go, the post code search usually saves the trouble of going to the wrong direction, saving time and resources. So in that sense......The idea I'm sugesting consists on having a own WAZE database for post codes in Portugal run/managed with the Waze community and, that should be, the primary option when searching for post codes.
The CTT (primary mailing company in Portugal) as an APP for phone where you can determine a certain post code…1 vote -
Change the "watch out" alert.
I think it would be beneficial to change the way Waze gives alerts. The automated voice says "Watch out" and it's for a vehicle on the shoulder like 2 miles a head of you, or for a cop or something in the middle of the freeway. When Waze alerts about these issues, it always makes my heart drop. Imagine you are on the rode at night and your passenger, says "WATCH OUT" very loud, it would frighten anyone, and the last person you want to be scared is the driver. Maybe something less urgent, for non urgent alerts, like "alert"…

JEREMY CLARKSON
A Modest Proposal: Jeremy Clarkson for Waze Voice Navigation
Dear Waze Team,
Let’s cut to the chase — Waze is brilliant. But you know what would make it truly exceptional?
Jeremy Clarkson.
Not just as a voice. As a driving philosophy. Imagine:
“Turn left... or don’t. I’m not your mother.”
“Traffic ahead. Caused, presumably, by a Prius.”
“You've arrived. It's no racetrack, but it'll do.”
"In 200 meters Turn left-- unless you drive a beige Volvo. In which case, please stay home"
Clarkson is the voice of speed, sarcasm, and barely-contained road rage — everything a morning commute needs. Give…6 votes -
Talmudic Measurements
In addition to the imperial and metric systems of measurement currently available on the Waze app, would it be possible to add another system, which the voice instructions would use? I’m thinking of the Talmudic system of measurement (tefakh, amah, ris, mil, parsah). Many in Israel would be interested in utilizing these measurements because it would be a practical application of a currently abstract system.

Dimming screen at not noticeable rate over an period and turn to maximum screen brightness. Create a shock to user, remind user to stay awake.
