Alert
Alerts are often very close to the item and less useful than they could be.
I got a red light ticket and the alert for the red light camera only appeared as I went through the intersection.
Obviously it's my responsibility to drive the car, but it would be helpful to get an alert about 15-20 seconds before I approach whatever the item is.
For police or emergency vehicles it should be more like 1 minute.
And finally - if we're under the speed limit - then just show the Alert.
But if we're over the speed limit then show the Alert and play the sound, and if we don't slow down - play it again to get the driver's attention.

Reports
I would like it if in the account history I was able to see more information about reports I've done, and to export that data.
I use Waze as I'm driving to report potholes and then later I carry that over to my city's website in order to get it fixed.
In Waze, when I look at previous reports I just see a small map that often doesn't show the street names or the crossing streets.
I would like for the app to have a zoomable map so I can zoom out and see where the report was. Ideally I would be able to export the day and time of the report, the type, the lat/long of the report, the street name and direction of travel in a .CSV file.

I would like to see waze showing offline music player apps such as poweramp while driving
Waze is not showing offline music playing. To be honest all the other apps are online based, which is pretty bad while driving as it depends on network availability.

Customise alert filtering
I am requesting for more user customisation on what alerts come through
I find the alerts useful however they can get very annoying when listening to music.
The 3 options you currently get are: all, alerts only, silence.
It would be great if I could select alerts for just speed cameras, police etc leaving out speeding & pothole alerts (example)

Lane Arrows
The colors of the arrows indicating which lane to stay in should have a more distinct difference in color. It's very hard to tell the difference at first glance. Maybe making the arrows that indicate which lane to stay in a bright yellow, would be more helpful.

Create a Vehicle-Aware Routing System for Waze
The Waze Team should consider incorporating a feature that can detect a user’s vehicle and its specifications, such as its height and weight, and to use that data when generating routes. Incidents such as over-height trucks striking low bridges, overweight vehicles damaging roads, and large trucks being directed into streets that are too narrow could be significantly prevented through this vehicle-aware routing. Implementing this would be a significant step towards leveraging emerging technologies to improve user experience and safety in a way that other GPS systems currently fail to account for.

Traffic Signs and Alerts Urgently Needed in School Zones
Waze needs to integrate visual traffic signs (Stop signs, traffic lights), just as Google and Apple Maps already do. A crucial missing feature is for the route line to change color when entering school zones, visually alerting the driver to reduce their speed. These visual cues are vital for driving with greater caution and better anticipating stops. If the app is updated to include these suggestions, I will give it five stars, and it will be perfect.

Slow Down Songs to play through Waze
Road safety slow-down songs to play via Waze apps whilst driving through school zones. The Australian Road Safety foundation has a number of "slow down songs" for school and construction zones. It would be a GREAT safety improvement for Waze to automatically queue these songs when in a school zone and construction zone.
A great leap forward for school zone safety!

Too many notifications before a turn, can we decide distance before a turn
At the moment I get a notification about 1km before a turn, then about 800m, 500m, 200m. It’s too many. Just a menu item with a list of possible turn distance notifications, and a checkbox next to each so we can decide how many. My own choice would be 800m and 200m, but two is enough notifications for a turn in my opinion. Maybe also a system to adjust these distances depending on my speed. But maybe that’s getting too complicated! But basically give us the possibility to choose.

Speed and red light cameras and other cameras
Is it possible if waze said for speed and red light cameras and other cameras to say where any camera is in 1 mile not in 0.2 miles because that way people would get a heads up and not panic and not slam on the brakes cause that can be dangerous

Make driving easier and to know what destinations look like with satellite view and also add photos from tripadvisor or google on waze.
The reason I suggest this is many times i find i can't just use waze as it doesn't have satellite view and i end up using other apps for me its a need so I know where im driving when in driver mode and aren't just getting rough ideas from the current view, another feature i suggest is many times you can't view photos of locations because you have to be at the destination to take the photo and there are very few so another feature to add would be to add maybe photos from Google to the app instead of relying on users to take a photo at said location.
