Low-Clearance / Stance Vehicle Mode" with Community-Sourced Obstacle Mapping
I would like to suggest a new vehicle type profile specifically designed for lowered, "stance," or low-clearance vehicles to help drivers navigate the challenging infrastructure of historic European cities. When a driver selects this specialized vehicle mode, the app should automatically prioritize routes that bypass hazardous infrastructure while proactively warning the driver about unavoidable obstacles. To make this possible, users should have the ability to report and permanently pin specific low-clearance hazards directly on the map, including severe speed bumps, elevated railroad crossings, gravel segments, deep potholes, and cobblestone streets. These community-sourced map markers will remain active unless a crowd-voted verification process determines they are no longer there, ensuring long-term data accuracy. This feature addresses a major real-world issue for the car enthusiast community by protecting modified vehicles from costly undercarriage damage, while simultaneously improving general traffic flow by keeping low-speed vehicles off roads where they would otherwise cause delays.

Lane Guidance - Show New lanes
Commonly seen at junctions, additional lanes may be created to facilitate turn traffic (eg a 3 lane road may be expanded to 6 lanes at the junction - add a lane for left turn and 2 lanes for right turn). the current lane guidance do not show which lanes are “new”, which results to keeping to the wrong lane at times (eg road’s lane 1 becomes lane 3 at the junction). an additional “\” or “/“ would be useful to indicate which are the new lanes

Be able to add multiple road blocks/closures within one minute without suspension!
In Minnesota, we have 2 seasons: summer & construction! On my way to work this month, within a 4 block radius were multiple road closures. When I reported more than 2 (?) within a minute, I received an alert that I am suspended from reporting for x amount of time. The next 2 trips to work showed the same route through the construction. I had to make so many turns that I got lost in my neighborhood and was late to work each day.
Instead of automatically suspending, why not ask if we had intended to make that many reports first?In Minnesota, we have 2 seasons: summer & construction!

Increase text size on navigation instructions
When using the iPhone app (no car play - just on mobile) some of the instructions are near impossible to see.
Things like exit no.s in the roundabout icon or the names of A Roads / Junctions / Motorways etc are way too tiny to read safely.

Route Assistance
I would like Waze to mark stores, gas stations, fast food restaurants, etc., that I select along a route that has already begun. For example: I have a “Loves” membership for RV dumping. It would be great to know where, on my route, these are. Close to me does not help all the time.

Cluster light mode
Please allow the cluster view to be in light mode in the daytime.
It is really hard to see in the bright sun with all black/dark elements since the cluster is always in dark mode. Unlike the main display, which changes by time of day or user selection.
I think they should match or at least be a user setting in the app along with the main display.

New feature prompts
The "New! Report with voice" prompt displayed on my app while actively navigating. This occurred after having the app open for several miles.
Please ensure that these types of notifications either pop up immediately, before allowing you to start your travels, or allow them to auto clear if there is no user input after 15 or so seconds.
The pop up covered nearly the entire window on my device, and required me to take my eyes off of the road and press one of the buttons in order to see my vehicle and map again.

I would like to suggest vehicle icons that stand out more, featuring larger details—such as bigger taillights.
I would like to suggest vehicle icons that stand out more, featuring larger details—such as bigger taillights. For instance, my vehicle is black, and I would like an icon of it with large taillights; since they would be red, they would stand out more clearly on the map. I have designs ready to send you if you are interested, okay?

Contacts not showing as before
Dear sir/ma’am,
I have been using Waze for many years and absolutely crazy about it. Compared to any other navigation system, Waze is way above them and there is not even comparison.
Obviously, when I put a name of a contact, it shows their address and if there is more than one, it shows all of it. Past few weeks I noticed that when I put a name/contact, it only shows 1 or 2 addresses while the person has a few more than 2 addresses. As I mentioned, in the past few years it always showed everything but now it became limited.
I uninstalled and reinstalled it again to see if it does the trick but unfortunately, no luck.
Can you please help?
Respectfully

Screen Size and Pop Up Time
Several comments about the messaging on the screen. 1. We do not need two "Go Now" prompts when putting in an address. One is enough to say I want to go to that address. 2. When inputting a police sighting, stopped traffice or whatever, we really don't need the 5 second Thank You, that 5 seconds blocks the screen. 3. When an incoming call comes in, on an 8 inch screen, it covers the top 1.5 inches, Sucks when you miss the turn because of it. Other than that, Love IT!!!! Thanks....

Rotas para ciclistas e giroscópio.
A ausência de rotas para ciclistas e giroscópio deixa esse app bem muito atrás do Google maps. Usando o waze fica difícil para ciclistas, entregadores de bike ou pedestres, pois não há rota para essas categorias de usuário. Inclua rotas para ciclistas e pedestres e inclua giroscópio para uma melhor orientação. O waze está muito limitado do jeito que é atualmente

Improvement Suggestion: Save Alerts Even Without an Internet Connection
Masters,
I would like to suggest an improvement that I believe would be very useful for Waze, especially for users traveling on highways in areas with unstable internet coverage.
It is common to lose connection precisely when encountering an accident, a pothole, a stopped vehicle, or a speed camera. In these situations, the user tries to submit a report, but it is not sent due to the lack of internet access. By the time the signal returns, the driver may have already traveled several kilometers, and the alert is never submitted.
My suggestion is for the app to store these reports locally on the device whenever there is no internet connection. The record could include essential information such as the GPS location, the type of alert, and the date and time it was created. As soon as the device regains internet access, Waze would automatically send this data to the server and the Map Editor, without requiring any additional action from the user.
I work in mobile application development and use this exact strategy in commercial applications. Our sales representatives frequently work in areas without internet coverage. During this period, location information is stored in a local database. Once the device reconnects, the data is automatically synchronized with the server. It is a simple, reliable, and widely used solution for applications that need to work offline.
I believe this same concept could provide significant benefits to Waze by increasing the number of valid reports submitted by users and improving the quality of the information available to the entire community, especially on highways and in remote areas.
