Destination confirmation
. Destination always shown on map, may be on top of or in estimated time of arrival box, as a confirmation that correct destination has been entered? (Reason - sometimes Waze gives directions when driving that I personally would not have selected).
20 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Please add multiple stops
I was a waze user before but when I encountered with multiple stop problem. Waze can only allow one stop to be added and it is confusing. Please make is simplify where we can add multiple stops and check the map and distance at the same time . Also we can change order of the stops on convenience.
24 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.

Motorcycle Apps Integration
KTM, Ducati - both are integrated with Sygic (which is terrible - but I believe is used because they offer some offline mode). It would be good if Waze could be selected as an online option with them as an alternative to Sygic.

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.

The music banner is too large on the app. Please could you make it smaller so I can still have it up to see the song and see the map. Make it more like Google maps music banner - small and not distractive

Enable Google Assistant in other Spanish speaking countries
At now, the use of Google Assistant with Waze, is only available in Spain and Mexico. Please, enable the use of it in other Spanish speaking countries, like how it happens with Google Maps. Thanks
Cheers.

The directions window covers the navigation map.
Close icon or hide the window with directions, because it covers the navigation map.

Make live map on your website like the app
The live map on your website could be improved by adding things already in the app (like petrol prices). I have and love the app, but know older people, with older phones, that would like to access this information.
2 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may already know, a live map is available as a web version, which you can use to see real time traffic reports. Search for Waze live map.

Show the Road That The User is Currently Traveling On, In the Client (Tied into 'Where Am I' Feature Request)
I think that this would be a great feature to have. On the Waze client, while using Waze, whether it be Android, iPhone, WM, etc... it would be nice to show the current road that you are currently on or traveling on. This is tied in to the feature request of something similar to TomTom's "Where Am I", but that is in another thread and I don't wish to take away from it.
The request for the current road is on on GPS devices. For example:

Ability to edit the text-to-voice pronounciations
While navigating, text-to-voice feature often pronounces abbreviations literally - eg 'univ' as 'univ', not 'university'. It also pronounces 'Ave' like 'wave' not the long 'a' in 'Avenue'
Can map editors fix individual signs and navigation cues?
(I'm a level 1 editor - so maybe this something that senior editors have access to)

Make footpaths more distinguishable in the app
A footpath in the app is the same colour and barely a fraction of a millimeter thinner than a road, so it’s easy to miss where a driveable road ends and continues as a footpath. Changing footpaths to dashed lines just like in the browser Map Editor would 100% solve the problem.

Add a Toilet Place Category
There is currently no toilet place category, there is however apparently a search category for toilet. It would be ideal to create a place category for toilet tied to the search category so that public toilets can be mapped more effectively than simply using "Other". This could then potentially be tied to a quick search category in app.

Alternative feature for traffic jam bar
The traffic jam bar is automatically shown in the portrait WAZE map view mode but it can't be automatically shown in the landscape WAZE map mode. Actually, this bug is already exist in the previous WAZE GPS app versions & had ever reported to the WAZE support team.
You can witness this bug when in navigation mode & the WAZE map is rotated from portrait view mode to landscape view mode & vice versa.
Perhaps a countdown timer, say to be placed either beside the speedometer or beside the orange reporting traffic/hazard type button, showing the elapsing estimated time in…

Incorrect Symbol in HUD and Widget for Roundabouts via Android Auto
Issue: Incorrect Symbol in HUD and Widget for Roundabouts via Android Auto
Vehicle: Smart #3 Brabus
Phone: OnePlus 13
Problem: When using Waze through Android Auto, roundabouts show incorrect navigation symbols in the car’s HUD and media widget. This does not happen in Google Maps.
The main screen shows correct instructions, but the HUD and widget display incorrect icons — often showing wrong turn direction or exit.
Please verify if the Android Auto metadata (like NavigationTemplate or TripInfo) is being sent correctly by Waze for HUD integration.3 votes -

Parking spaces available in car parks in real time
Several cities around the world have a real-time feed of available spaces in their parking lots.
It would be really relevant to be able to have it in Waze so that we can be guided directly to the city center or bus/tram hub. Currently Waze allows you to get around perfectly, but concretely, once you arrive in town, it does not help you to park, so the purpose is not achieved in a certain way. It’s also a matter of sustainability. Waze should help for less time and gaz wasted.
Morover many cities with real time feed have digital screen…20 votes -
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.
