Choose Notifications
Let me choose which items I want to be notified of. Want to pick and choose to get fog notifications, car stopped on shoulder. etc. I listen to podcasts and books on tape and want as few interruptions as possible while still knowing the way to go.

HUD Interface
I own LEXUS NX450 F-Sport and use WAZE through Car Play. The problem is that there is no interface between the WAZE and the Head-Up-Display. For example, Apple Maps has such an interface. I think this is a must feature you have to add.

Beginning of town (inhabited place) indication - for when to let off the gas in advance
Indicate the next beginning of town somehow on the route.
On the map and/or with info saying "beginning of town in 500m ... 400m ... 200m" etc.
Or even just one popup saying "town in 300m".
Or just with a marker on the map! That would also suffice.I have wanted this feature for years.
Very hard to estimate when in an unknown area.
For those of us mindful about eco driving, there is no point in pressing the gas pedal up until the sign and then braking suddenly from 90km/h to 50km/h.It would be nice to know when…

Route options on Car Play
When connected to car play, I cannot choose a route, Waze does it for me. Sometimes it chooses routes I would not choose. Either poor areas of a city, poor roads, lots of side streets, toll roads, etc. I’d like to choose my route from at least 2 or 3 options vs none. Thank you.

Improve usability for EV drivers
Please add more EV friendly information. Have no option to choose EV as fuel type and doesn't show charging stations. Since buying my car, I've actually found Google Maps a far better option but do miss the community reporting of Waze as its not as good in Google Maps

Number Coded Scheme
If you're familiar in the Philippines, there's a number coding scheme where cars can't be on the road at a certain day and time based on the number plate ending. Suggest if you can show in the map maybe shaded in red or a red zone where they aren't allowed to go so driver can take alternative routes. This can be used for no tresspassing zones as well. Shows only as a warning but they can still drive. Similar from Tom Cruise's movie 'Oblivion.'

Latest saved addresses
Hi Good Day
I trust you are well.
My name is Brad and I'm a big fan of Waze. Been using it ever since I discovered it. Thank you for creating such a fun and practical navigating app.
I have a suggestion though, if I may, please can you make an adjustment to where newly saved addresses are shown. When I plan a new journey to a place I put in the address and save it to use later. The update I would like to suggest is to have the latest saved addresses appear at the top of the saved…

iPhone4G - landscape mode not correct at time zero
more of a bug really.
If Waze is running before I rotate the phone then the switch to landscape mode works. If I launch Waze after rotating the phone (like I do when I snap the phone into my car mount before starting Waze) then the display is stuck sideways.3 votes -

Option to have two different vehicle types on one account that you can easily switch between eg car and truck
I have a car and a truck, each has slightly different needs, one is EV one is diesel, one is a normal car one cannot access height, width restricted areas etc. Would be great to be able to add both vehicles on app and then switch between them before routing

Road interdiction in Car Play and Android Auto
This week I came across a detour due to a closure of a road that was under repairs.
I looked for the option in Car Play and couldn't find it.It is impossible to drive through an unexpected situation of changing routes, diverting through a place that you are still trying to understand while disconnecting the device from the car to look for the interdiction option.
Concern increases as we are on the verge of events when the number of closures increases significantly.
Please add the option to Car Play and Android Auto.

Switch map and directions on android devices to left or right
My car is a left hand drive vehicle however while using the app on an android headunit the directions are on the left side of the screen while the map is on the right hand side of the screen which is very hard to see. I suggest an option if your car is a left hand drive vehicle to swap these two and revert back if it is a right hand drive vehicle.

Traffic sign detection with machine learning
I use waze a few years as my one and only navigation system. In my car is a device holder at the front windows. In Germany we have many highway construction sites. And constant changed street signs are on the highways. Maybe you can add a machine learning system to detect the traffic signs.

"I'm in a parking garage" button to delay route recalculation and map out garages
An "I'm in a parking garage" button would allow you to:
1) Delay route recalculation until the car had actually started on the route (10 meters along actual street or so)
2) Map out existing parking garages for feedback to navigation
Because fiddling with your phone while driving is illegal in Austin, I prefer to set the route and be done with it before I start driving. Driving in circles around the garage means I typically have to do it afterward if I don't want recalculation to squelch my chosen route (non-toll vs toll for instance).

Hello Waze friends.
Hello Waze friends. My name is Oscar Martínez from Costa Rica, I am a waze user and I love it.
I want to share with you an idea, waze is very useful because it "knows" the best way to reach our destination. But sometimes the app gives us a map using a route unknown to us regardless of the type of vehicle we are using at the time.
One possibility for improvement may be to first ask ourselves what type of car we have and thus avoid difficult routes for our cars. For example, a very bumpy road with…1 vote -
Waze should delay commands by one or two seconds when iPhone is used through Bluetooth
I use Waze in my car, using my iPhone through Bluetooth so that the sound comes from the car speakers. The problem is, that Waze does not wait for the connection. All commands are partly cut off. For example: "in 1000 feet turn left" is heard as "turn left". Can you program Waze, so that when Bluetooth is used, there is a minor delay, for example 1 or 2 seconds, before the command is spoken. That way I will hear the entire instruction.

Listening to Downcast and using Waze
Has anyone else experienced this? When using Waze and also listening to a podcast using the Downcast app, after arriving at the destination and then starting my next journey, I am no longer able to listen to the podcast. I have arrived at my destination and I stopped navigation. When I get back into the car and i resume listening to the podcast, i enter my next destination on Waze. Suddenly I am no longer able to listen to the podcast simultaneously.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
