Have a Female super hero car to drive
Hi! My daughters asked me why, if the Batmobile is an option, we can’t drive a Wonder Woman car as well.
My kids are 3 and 5 and their question strikes the lack of representation they can already see here.
It can be WW or someone else... but could you have a car of a female superhero as well?
Ps: we love Batman too, -not the Riddle that much-, but having female representation would give an initial great & diversed option.
Thank you.

CarPlay Toll/Freeway Toggle
I find many times where I'd like to assess the difference between Toll vs Non-Toll or Freeway vs Non-Freeway routes, but there is no easy and safe way to do this while connected to Carplay. Offering a simple accessible toggle for these functions would be extremely valuable!

libby
It would be great if the app worked with Libby or Overdrive apps, so that one could listen to audiobooks from the library while one drives.

avoid a specified road would be a great feature.
It would be great if I could avoid a particular road I hate driving on the way home. Its not a toll or a dirt road, and I dont want to change my preferences just to avoid the same road , but I hate it. Its unlit, fast, narrow and has a really annoying junction and a big width restriction. I just want to tell Waze to never route that way. Id rather take 5 more minutes getting home .

Connect Waze to sireneradar.com to let Waze show a warning of an approaching emergency vehicle.
In the Netherlands we have the sireneradar.com initiative. Most emergency services are connected to this system.
The location of the police/fire/ambulance-vehicle is reported realtime to the platform, That data is available to navigation vendors like TomTom and Flitsmeister, and they sound and display a warning to their users for an approaching emergency vehicle.
This way the Waze users get an early warning, so they can be extra alert when they need to.

Account recovery not a new account
How about when a user gets a new phone or their phone crashes (both scenarios keep original Waze account phone number) an account reset or recovery option? You know, one that does NOT create a new account and informs you afterwards that you just hosed yourself because now you will never get your account back. I'm not so worried about the "points" I lost, it's my user name that still shows up as a user that I can no longer access. It's great you guys gobbled up Waze, how about raising your standards to that of the original company?

Alerts and Navigation Checkboxes
I would love the option to turn off alerts and solely have the navigation voice be audible!
I've read that the purpose for having the options be "Sound Off," "Alerts Only," and "Sound On" -- no "Navigation Only" -- is to keep the interface sleek, which I completely understand and support... so how about instead of making it a slider from "Sound Off" to "Alerts Only" to "Sound On," you made them checkboxes?
That way, you'd only have two toggles -- "Alerts On/Off," and "Navigation On/Off," and folks in dense metropolitan areas wouldn't have to choose between complete silence with no navigation OR navigation while getting their focus interrupted by constant alerts that are mostly meaningless.

Aviso de aprobación de FOTO, LUGAR, ETC, al usuario waze que la reporto.
Sería muy bueno, que los usuarios que reportan FOTOS, LUGARES, ETC y que no lo pueden aprobar por tener un Nivel Bajo, reciban un mensaje automático cuando un usuario superior (Ej. L4, L5, etc) les apruebe dicho reporte. Creo que de esta manera, el usuario estaría viendo que su esfuerzo fue valorado y lo incentivaría a nuevos reportes. Gracias.

update alerts for other side of road
I would like to be able to update alerts on either side of the road as no longer there, not just the side of the road I'm traveling on. Just like how Waze currently asks if a hazard is still there if it's in my traveling direction, it'd be nice to be able to click on a hazard or alert on the opposite side of the road and delete it if it's no longer there or relevant.
Also, what happened to reporting hazards/traffic on the opposite side of the road after this newest android update? It's awful! It needs to immediately be brought back! I don't know whose bright idea it was to remove it, but it really messed things up. I'm CONSTANTLY driving by construction or heavy traffic in the other direction that isn't reported, and I can't!
And when it comes to updating gas prices, I understand the new look of spinning a wheel to the number you want looks really cool, but it's made it so much more tedious. It liked it much better when my numerical keyboard popped up and I could just type in the numbers, not trying to spin a wheel and hopefully get it right. What a pain!
I LOVE Waze! I really do! I don't know what I'd do driving without it! But this newest update is a real PAIN. Sorry. I would love the chance to get 5 mins to suggest changes to the developers (adding speed bump and rail road crossing alerts, being able to report alerts on an intersecting road like you can report road closures on intersecting roads)

Increase visibility area in landscape mode.
While using waze on my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy Note 3), the device is on its side. I like to see the map in landscape mode. With the new update (version 4.0.0.2 installed) any warnings and the display of the names of streets COVERS a big part of the map. I suggest to enlarge the área of the map shown in landscape mode for smartphones at least.

bike and pedestrians ahead alert - Alerta de ciclistas e pedestres nas rodovias
Portuguese - Seria muito útil criar um alerta de ciclistas e pedestres que estão transitando nos acostamentos das rodovias. Seria mais util ainda se o Wase pudesse acessar o banco de dados do Strava e automaticamente informasse que há "ciclistas a frente". Certamente os wazers alertariam da existência de ciclistas ou pedestres nas rodovias que representam perigo de atropelamento.
English - It would be very useful if create an kind of alert for Bikeres and pedestrians that are transiting the shoulders of highways. It will be more useful even if the Wase could access the Strava database and automatically inform that there is "bikeres forward." All wazers certainly alert about existence of bikers forward avoiding roadkill.

moving waze folder inside Android/data
Can you move the waze folder from memory's root to a folder like Android/data/com.waze)
The reason is to keep clean the memory's root to makes easier for user to find important folders like DCIM, Downloads, Music and such on a glimpse. Also, folders in this form are deleted automatically upon app uninstallation, making it cleaner and may make it compatible with app2sd.
