Report alerts on split screen - Apple CarPlay
I'm using Waze on a daily basis for many years and recently found out, that there are differences between its usability on android auto and apple CarPlay while using Waze on split screen which is very common on modern huge car displays.
While you can report things (traffic yams, dangers, alerts, and so on) when using Waze via split screen on android auto, you can't do that on split screen mode on apple CarPlay.
Please implement this feature in apple CarPlay too!!

Alert both directions of travel for police
Maybe this isn't a new idea and has already been expressed here but I think it would be important for both directions of travel to receive an alert of police no matter which side it was reported on, because often it is sitting in the middle between both directions and other times it's a two-lane highway where the police on the other side could still get you. I believe this could also effectively eliminate the need for reporting a police on the other side and just have a single report police button.

Please give us options for the alert sounds
The new update with the "pling" sound is so annoying and takes my focus off driving. Please make the alerts customizable or give us a few options to choose from. Thankyou!

I would appreciate an option in the Waze app to specify different vehicle types (e.g., a caravan with a height of 2.9 m). There is also no option for cycling or walking routes.
Ocenila bych v aplikaci Waze možnost zadat různé typy vozů (třeba karavan, výška 2,9.m) Chybí i možnost trasy s jízdním kolem, nebo pěšky.

דיווח על תקר - פנצ'ר
Many vehicles are stranded due to flat tires. It is recommended to provide the option to report a flat tire so that a driver who arrives can help.

Ajouter les aires de repos et de services précis pendant la navigation
Ce serait vraiment pratique si Waze affichait toutes les aires de repos et de services directement sur la carte, pendant une itinéraire sur une autoroute française et toute autres pays ou dans les routes nationaux.
Pour l’instant, l’appli ne prévient pas quand une aire approche. Ce serait top d’avoir une notification quelques kilomètres avant, pour nous dire qu’il y a une aire pas loin.
Cette notification pourrait aussi lister ce qu’on y trouve, par exemple :
- des toilettes
- une aire de jeux
- des stations-service (avec les marques disponibles)
- des restos et fast-foods
- des bornes de recharge électrique
- et d’autres services (suivant les panneaux réels que propose sur l'autoroute et toute autres pays & sur les routes nationaux)
L’utilisateur n’aurait plus qu’à taper sur le bouton bleu « Ajouter un arrêt » pour ajouter cette aire à son trajet, sans devoir recréer un nouvel itinéraire ou risquer de perdre sa navigation en cours. Ou d'utiliser l'assistant Google pour aller dans une prochaine aire de repos PROCHE.
Avec une fonction comme ça, les conducteurs pourraient mieux planifier leurs pauses, leur essence ou leur recharge, et les longs trajets deviendraient plus confortables et plus sûrs.

Option to alerts on iphone even when its above or at the speed limit
Need this option because of the delay from GPS sync with the real speed! Its just a easy option to allow and makes a huge difference!

Mixed Toll and Toll-Free Route Planning
Instead of only "Avoid toll roads" for the entire trip, let users choose which route segments can use toll roads and which should avoid them. This would provide much more flexible and cost-effective route planning.

Ukraine case
Dear Waze Development and Product Team,
I am writing to you as a loyal Waze user from Ukraine. I drive a subcompact car with low ground clearance. While I appreciate the app's real-time traffic updates, Waze's routing algorithms in Ukraine have repeatedly led me down roads that are physically dangerous for my vehicle. I have already suffered costly damages to my car’s oil pan and suspension because of this.
Today, I was once again routed through a road that is completely unsuitable for low-clearance cars. I would like to highlight the specific issues with your current routing logic in regions with developing road infrastructure like Ukraine, and suggest key improvements:
1. The "Crossover/SUV" Speed Fallacy
In Ukraine, compact SUVs (locally called "parketnyky") are highly popular. These vehicles can easily maintain a speed of 70–90 km/h on heavily damaged or potholed roads.
The Problem: Your algorithm sees this GPS speed data and assumes the road is "good." In reality, for a low-clearance subcompact, these speeds are impossible, and the road is a hazard.
The Reality: In Ukraine, a truly "good" road is characterized by average speeds of 90–120 km/h. An average speed of 70–90 km/h usually indicates a road suitable only for SUVs. Please reconsider how speed limits and actual user speeds define "road quality" in your routing algorithms.
2. Implement a "Low Clearance / Subcompact" Vehicle Profile
Currently, the option to "avoid difficult/unpaved roads" does not solve the issue, as many paved roads in Ukraine are severely deteriorated but not classified as "dirt roads."
The Solution: Allow users to select "Low Clearance / Subcompact Car" in their vehicle profile. The routing algorithm should then heavily deprioritize secondary or poorly rated paved roads for this profile.
3. Pothole Density Algorithm
Currently, users can report individual potholes.
The Solution: If multiple pothole reports are flagged by users on a single short stretch of road, the algorithm should recognize this not just as "potholes," but as a completely degraded road. Such segments should be automatically flagged as "difficult" and excluded from standard routes.
4. Offline/No-Signal Reporting Limitations
In many remote or poorly maintained areas in Ukraine, mobile internet connection is unstable or non-existent. Users physically cannot report potholes in real-time. This means the worst roads often appear "clean" on your map due to a lack of reports.
Incorporating these changes would not only save many drivers from expensive car repairs but would also make Waze the undisputed leader in smart routing for eastern European markets.
Thank you for your time and dedication to making navigation safer.Dear Waze Development and Product Team,

Waze representatives can mark a location for users to follow up if they need more information and the users can get points or rep or something like that for answer the questions. Kind of like Google does when it asks about a place you visited, but strictly traffic related.
I reported a one way road that waze was trying to have me go down the wrong way to a park parking lot. The rep asked if the road on the other side was one way in. Since I was trying to go into a lot that's further in the back (the first lot is just where the address points to and I was passing by it), I didn't catch look for anything on the other road.Waze representatives can mark a location for users to follow up if they need more information and the users can get points or rep or something like that for answer the questions.

Mark a location while driving for follow up for an issue
I know there's a similar idea, but no option to expand on it (maybe other users being able to expand on these suggestions would be good as well).
Basically, you mark a location, Waze gives you an option, to maybe record or voice to text a quick note so you can remember what the concern was later (maybe even say how much later), AND have some kind of indicator within the app or an email that will remind you later.1 vote -
Portrait mode AA small text and sign icons
Having issues with AA on my portrait screen in my Silverado. In the upper left hand corner the text and road signs are almost impossible to read because they are so small.
On landscape mode displays Waze is fine. Also if I load Waze on the Radio and use WIFI it is alright. It is just when running Waze within AA.
