  1. Need an option in search to switch routes from current location and destination and vice versa.

    I like to plan routes and take the same way to and back from a destination. I think it would be beneficial to be able to see a route and alerts from a destination to your current location. Example: A is my current location I’m going to B my destination. Switch A->B TO B->A. Just like google maps.

  2. 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…

  3. Support ODB bluetooth dongles

    Allow the use of an ODB bluetooth dongle to get a number of improvements. These dongles are quite cheap and provide a wealth of extra data. Possible uses:

    [ Better dead reckoning using vehicle speed ]
    Using the actual vehicle speed combined with compass, accelerometer and map matching it should be possible to have accurate positioning in tunnels/urban canyons. TomTom does this and is able to do near-perfect positioning with only one GPS datapoint every 30 minutes.

  4. Importation d'une série d'adresses ou coordonnées GPS

    Ouvrir la possibilité d'importer une seriée d'adresses pour prévoir une tournée.
    Avec Gogle maps, je peux créer une carte, y créer un calque et y importer mes points de tournée.
    Je peux supprimer, modifier, ajouter des points sur mon calque qui n'est vu que de moi. Ce type de fonctionnalité indispensable pour beaucoup n'est pas possible avec Waze.

  6. Let Waze warn me also against Hazards created by me

    Currently, if you leave a Hazard on a map, you are not being warned against, if you approach to it after you report it. We are able to remember places where there are short term Hazards, but in case of long term hazards (like Potholes) it can be different.

  7. favourite gas station price list (either highlighted on map or make a separate tab with list of them)

    I live in big city /distance between work and home is 10+ km/. that means I dont see all gas stations around me (waze shows only 3km around your actual position). I would prefer to have a list or possibility to browse on map gas stations I am interested in. Or make them favourable and show them always on map .. so I can easily check where is the lowest price. without setting to navigate me home and going to the option to see any nearby gas stations on may way to/from work.

  9. Live Traffic Color Codes Disappear!

    When looking at the live map for the traffic color codes for slow traffic, when I zoom out to look 20-50 miles ahead, THE COLORS DISAPPEAR!! Why?? Frustrating. I have to switch over to Google maps to see traffic colors to see if there any any traffic jams ahead. It would be nice if I could just stay on the Waze app to hear the alerts and not have to switch back and forth.

  10. Seamless "OK, Google Now Navigate"

    I would like Waze to begin navigation intermediately after it starts when I say "OK, Google Now Navigate to ..." without having me to click anything. Right now the destination appears on the map, but then I need to click the bock and tell Waze to begin navigation.

  11. When marking something on the map you should be able to add info re: what ur posting

    Add the ability to define what exactly you are advising others of on the map. For example; instead of just police in general adding the ability to define weather it is a speed camera or an RBT etc

  12. In dual screen mode show in main screen the whole route, not just mirror current view

    In dual screen mode (main screen and small screen above steering wheel) show on main screen the whole journey from current position to the destination (the same as Google Maps do). Right now main screen only mirror small view in a different scale.

    I described it here with some photos:

  13. Feedback and Feature Suggestion for Improved Map Interaction

    I wanted to share some observations and a suggestion that could enhance the user experience when searching for locations with multiple branches, like Safeway.

    I noticed that Apple Maps stands out by showing the user’s current location in relation to multiple search results on the map, which helps give a quick visual understanding of where you are and where you’re headed. However, it currently lacks the ability to tap directly on a location pin on the map to begin navigation. Instead, users must choose from the text list, which can be confusing if you’re unsure of the exact address or…

  14. Map UK police ANPR scanners

    I like to suggest that UK police ANPR scanners are crowd-mapped and potentially included as an option that one might like to avoid when navigating

    Background:
    Police have set up thousands of number plate scanners in the UK which record passing traffic including images of front passengers.

    These create motion profiles which are stored on non-public database regardless of suspicion or explicit consent with no right to view your own data).

    Camera locations are not published also even though ANPR cams are visible for people who know what they look like.

    WAZE could crack this lack of informational self-determination and…

    Gansbaai is a valid Town in South Africa. Gans Bay does not exist and is the incorrect use of the Town Name.

  17. New Tolling on I66 in Northern Virginia/DC

    Hi there. I am sure you are aware of this, but soon here in the DC area, specifically on the I66 roadway, dynamic tolling will begin soon. Google maps does not quite yet have that in the map itself. Given that these tolls will be quite burdensome, alternate routes will be required and therefore an option to "avoid tolls" will be needed for the stretch of road on I66 from the beltway to DC. Thank you .

  18. Waze Weather

    Waze should have a weather integration where you can see local radar on the map as you drive (able to toggle it on/off). It would allow for real time weather and traffic updates.
