Show open/close state of a venue when selecting it from favorites or history
When a user searches for a new venue and then selects it from search results, Waze shows a warning based on open hours of the venue, whether it's closed, will be closed soon, or will be opened soon. But if the search results show the same venue stored in history, the user doesn't get a warning about open/close state of the venue.
Please show open/close state of a venue also when it's selected from favorites or history.

View a route in steps display color
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make/create a way for Wazers to customize colors, icons and text sizes that work for them!!!
I have to use the Waze app. My display screen shows the map but in order to view the route in steps I have to use my iPhone. I have CarPlay, I don’t have a touchscreen, and I don’t have built in navigation system. The major issue is the inability to customize the background color, text color and the color of the icons, example: exit number, route number etc. by each step. The only options are a black background with white and dark blue text or a white background with black and dark blue text and the icons are the same color for each. Since there’s not enough contrast between the colors and not able to adjust the text and icon sizes everything blends together and is a little blurry to read.
I have checked every setting on my iPhone, I’ve tried changing color, size, zoom, contrast setting, I did a google search a way to change color settings too. Nothing I did worked. Wazers can customize their screen for driving during the day or night.PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make/create a way for Wazers to customize colors, icons and text sizes that work for them!!!

Alert for Malta: illegal dumping and incorrect rubbish disposal.
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to propose a feature that could help address a growing environmental and community issue in Malta: illegal dumping and incorrect rubbish disposal.
Malta operates a door-to-door waste collection system where residents must place specific rubbish bags outside on designated collection days. Unfortunately, illegal dumping and the use of incorrect rubbish bags have become increasingly common. In many cases especially in apartment blocks or busy residential streets it is extremely difficult to identify who disposed of the waste incorrectly. While fines and regulations exist, enforcement is often ineffective because authorities lack sufficient data or evidence.
Malta already has a reporting app called Clean Up & Upkeep, which allows residents to report illegal dumping so authorities can intervene. However, relatively few people actively use the app, which limits the amount of data and reports collected.
Waze, on the other hand, is widely used across Malta by thousands of drivers every day. Because Waze is already open while people are moving around the island, it creates a unique opportunity for simple and quick community reporting.
Proposed feature
Introduce a map alert or reporting option for:
Illegal dumping
Incorrect rubbish bag disposal
Users could quickly flag locations where they notice these issues while driving or passing through an area. Similar to existing Waze alerts (hazards, stopped vehicles, etc.), the report would appear on the map and be aggregated over time, allowing both the community and authorities to see recurring problem areas.
Benefits for Citizens
Cleaner streets and neighborhoods through faster identification of problem areas.
A simple and convenient way to contribute to improving their community.
Increased awareness of proper waste disposal practices.
Reduced frustration caused by recurring dumping in the same locations.
Greater transparency and accountability when waste-related issues are reported.
Benefits for Authorities
Access to real-time, crowdsourced data about illegal dumping locations.
Ability to identify recurring hotspots and prioritize inspections or enforcement.
Better allocation of cleaning and waste management resources.
Data that could help build cases where enforcement actions are necessary.
Improved communication between citizens and local councils or environmental agencies.
Benefits for Waze
Increased community engagement by expanding the types of useful reports users can make.
Strengthening Waze’s role as a platform supporting smart and sustainable cities.
Opportunities to partner with municipalities, environmental agencies, or waste management organizations.
Additional valuable data insights related to urban environmental issues.
Positive brand impact by contributing to cleaner and more responsible communities.
This feature could start in Malta as a pilot project but could easily be replicated in other cities worldwide that face similar illegal dumping challenges.
Thank you for considering this idea. Stefania

Manual Car washing points w/Price
Similar to the Gasoline Station with price it would be nice to see the manual car washing points with prices (e.g. 1 min = x EUR/USD, and opening time fo sure) on the map.

Option to move "Where to?" search bar to the top
Hi Waze Team,
I would love to see a layout setting that allows users to move the "Where to?" search bar to the top of the screen.Depending on how my phone is mounted on the dashboard, having the search bar at the top feels much more natural for quick glances. Reaching all the way to the bottom menu can also be a bit awkward while driving.
Adding a simple toggle in the settings to choose between a "Bottom" and "Top" search layout would be a huge usability improvement and give drivers more flexibility.
Thank you for considering this!

crash alerts
I have an idea for crash alerts to be able to help wazers with navigating traffic of a crash. You could implement 3 kind of crash alerts, exactly like the blocked lane alerting system, where you report if it's on the right, left or in the center of the road. thank you for listening to my idea.

Alarm sound is needed for radar control!
It is very important to get an alarm along with the voice warning, at least give the option to users. This is not the case. In other navigation apps it is so!
Also give the option to only make noise if you are over the speed limit and camera is working, OR always make noise no matter what.
I hope it comes soon...
Have a nice day!

Indication péages
Bonjour,
Je voudrais vous proposer une suggestion d'amélioration.Cela concerne l'option "Eviter les routes à péages" .
Il serait pratique d'avoir sur l'écran principal de l'application un petit symbole (dollar ou euro) qui permettrait de rappeler si on est en mode "Eviter les routes à péages" actif ou pas.
En effet actuellement il faut aller chercher cette information dans le menu paramètres ce qui est plus compliqué (plusieurs clics)Peut-être pourrait-on trouver en bas de l'écran principal une petite zone pour afficher ce simple symbole. Il me semble qu'il reste un peu de place juste à droite de l'écran, sous le symbole "Son" par exemple.
En vous remerciant pour votre écoute.
Cordialement
Fred
