Request for Engagement – Absa Safe Corridor Programme and Waze Collaboration
Please note that Absa Group Limited would like to explore a potential collaboration with Waze and Google Maps in support of our Johannesburg-based Safe Corridor Programme.
As part of our commitment to employee safety, Absa has implemented a number of security measures along designated travel routes to and from our Absa Towers Campus. We are keen to understand how Waze's navigation and mobility capabilities could assist in promoting these preferred routes, enhancing commuter awareness, and supporting safer journeys for our colleagues.
We would welcome the opportunity to engage with the appropriate members of your team to discuss available partnership options, including any opportunities through the Waze for Cities programme.
Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to the opportunity of discussing this initiative further.
Kind regards,
Beauty Nhleko Johannesburg, South Africa

Navigating without GPS
When GPS are down you just can't use waze. If you could plan a route from point A to point B (and not from your location) you could at least use the app to follow the directions. In such instances I must use google maps.

Waze
Gostaria de sugerir uma nova opção de visualização no Waze: mapa em modo satélite, semelhante à visualização disponível no Google Maps.
Seria muito útil poder alternar entre o mapa tradicional do Waze e uma imagem de satélite real, permitindo visualizar melhor o terreno, áreas verdes, rios, construções, estradas rurais e outros elementos da paisagem.
Essa função poderia ser especialmente interessante para quem utiliza o Waze em regiões rurais ou em locais onde o mapa convencional não representa tão bem o ambiente ao redor.
Acredito que a visualização por satélite seria um excelente complemento ao Waze, tornando a navegação mais completa e ajudando o usuário a compreender melhor a região por onde está passando.
Espero que a equipe considere implementar essa opção futuramente. 🚗🛰️

Waze
Olá, equipe do Waze!
Gostaria de sugerir a adição de um modo de visualização via satélite no aplicativo, semelhante ao que existe no Google Maps.
Seria muito interessante poder alternar entre o mapa tradicional e uma visualização com imagens de satélite, mostrando as paisagens, estradas, áreas rurais, rios, construções e outros detalhes reais do terreno. Isso ajudaria bastante na orientação, principalmente em locais onde o mapa convencional não deixa tão clara a geografia da região.
Acredito que essa opção deixaria o Waze ainda mais completo e seria muito bem recebida pelos usuários.
Obrigado por considerarem a sugestão! 🚗🛰️

Waze über Apple CarPlay zu nutzen, ohne dass das Fahrzeug Waze automatisch als aktives Navigationssystem erkennt.
Gerne — hier ist ein Vorschlag auf Deutsch und Englisch:
Deutsch:
Es sollte möglich sein, Waze über Apple CarPlay zu nutzen, ohne dass das Fahrzeug Waze automatisch als aktives Navigationssystem erkennt.Derzeit schaltet das Auto häufig sein integriertes Navigationssystem ab, sobald Waze über CarPlay gestartet wird. Dadurch verschwindet die Navigationsanzeige im Display hinter dem Lenkrad.
Idealerweise sollten beide Systeme gleichzeitig funktionieren: Waze für die Navigation und Verkehrsinformationen über CarPlay, während die fahrzeugeigene Navigation weiterhin aktiv bleibt und Hinweise im Kombiinstrument anzeigen kann. Das würde die Nutzung deutlich komfortabler und sicherer machen.
English:
It should be possible to use Waze through Apple CarPlay without the vehicle automatically recognizing Waze as the active navigation system.Currently, many cars disable their built-in navigation system as soon as Waze is launched via CarPlay. As a result, navigation information disappears from the display behind the steering wheel.
Ideally, both systems should work at the same time: Waze for navigation and live traffic information through CarPlay, while the vehicle’s built-in navigation remains active and continues to show directions in the instrument cluster. This would make the experience much more convenient and safer.

In France, checks are reported as "average speed check ahead". It is wrong. All checks are instant speed checks. Pls correct
In France, checks are reported as "average speed check ahead". It is wrong. All checks are instant speed checks. There was some attempt in the past to implement average speed check (radar tronçons) but this was abandoned

Allow Quick Alert Preference Changes
Allow context-aware/destination-based or in-dash audio profile switching (Normal vs. Alerts-only) on Android Auto/CarPlay.
The recent interface change removed quick audio profile toggles (Normal, Less chatty, Only alerts, Off) from the main map screen and restricted menu depth on Android Auto/CarPlay.:
This creates a major safety and usability paradox: drivers cannot change their audio/alert preferences via voice command, nor can they access these settings on the car dashboard while connected. To switch from full turn-by-turn navigation to "Only alerts" for a routine commute, a user is forced to completely disconnect their phone and fiddle with the mobile app.
Real-world driving needs change per destination (full guidance for unfamiliar areas vs. alerts-only for a known highway commute). Please update Android Auto and CarPlay integrations to either:
Allow quick toggling of audio/alert profiles directly from the active in-car interface.
Enable Google Assistant voice commands to switch between "Normal" and "Only alerts" modes hands-free.
Permit setting a default audio profile per saved destination or route type prior to/during navigation start.
Thank you for your time.

Please add local arrival time @destination
Airlines have been doing this for decades. Please show local arrival time for routes. This is especially helpful for when traveling/driving between different time zones. This should be added as a visual reference for navigation routes (again when traveling between different time zones).
Thank you

Map Efficiency
This is not so much an issue as a recommendation/request. I have a Toyota 4Runner and the touchscreen display is big. The current location for the action button is closer to the passenger than it is to the driver. It means I reach a long way to report road issues and it is a bit cumbersome while driving and trying to keep eyes on the road. I would ask that you consider moving the action button from the right side to the middle or left. You could make room for it by moving the trip details box over to the right. Thank you for any consideration you give this, you have a great product that has benefitted me on my travels for years.

Uber+waze
Há um tempo atrás quando o app uber motorista enviava a rota para o Waze no Android auto, o app da Uber continuava em primeiro plano no celular, e é isso que eu prefiro, deveria ter uma opção para o motorista escolher qual app permanecer em primeiro plano no celular caso o app específico envie uma rota, pois hoje o Uber envia a rota e minimiza deixando a lista de rota Waze em primeiro plano no celular, o que eu não gosto, porque a rota já está aberto no Android auto.

Waze Truck Mode – A Reliable Navigation System for Professional Drivers
Waze is an amazing application, and in my opinion, one of the best navigation apps available. But what makes Waze different from other navigation applications is not only the navigation itself — it is the community behind it.
Waze is constantly improved by its users and map editors. When there is an error or an outdated piece of information on the map, it can be reported, corrected and updated by the community. This is one of the main reasons why Waze can be so reliable for passenger cars.
As a professional truck driver, however, I have noticed that there is currently no navigation application or GPS for heavy goods vehicles that can offer the same combination of reliability, real-time information and community-driven map updates.
The problem is that truck navigation systems can contain outdated or incorrect information. For example, a road may be incorrectly marked as prohibited for heavy goods vehicles when it is actually allowed — or the opposite. There can also be incorrect information about bridge or tunnel height restrictions. A GPS may indicate that a bridge has a 4.00 m clearance, only for the driver to arrive there and discover that the actual limit is 3.70 m.
For a passenger car, an incorrect route is usually just an inconvenience. For a 40-ton truck, it can become a serious problem.
A truck driver cannot simply make a U-turn, reverse for several hundred metres, or easily take a small alternative road. We need reliable information before reaching these situations.
What I would like to see in Waze
I would therefore like to renew the request for a dedicated Heavy Vehicle / Truck mode in Waze.
- A dedicated Heavy Vehicle profile
Similar to the existing motorcycle profile, Waze could introduce a Truck / Heavy Vehicle profile.
The driver could enter the characteristics of their vehicle, such as:
Maximum height
Maximum width
Vehicle length
Gross vehicle weight
Number of axles
Potentially ADR / hazardous materials informationWaze could then calculate routes according to these characteristics.
- More heavy-vehicle information for map editors
Waze map editors could also have additional tools specifically for heavy vehicles.
For example, editors could specify:
Heavy vehicle speed limits, in addition to the standard speed limit
Weight restrictions, such as roads prohibited above 3.5 t, 7.5 t, 12 t, etc.
Height restrictions
Width restrictions
Length restrictions
Bridge and tunnel clearance
Other restrictions specifically affecting heavy vehiclesThis information could then be used by Waze when calculating a truck route.
- The biggest advantage: the Waze community
The biggest reason I believe Waze could be exceptionally good for trucks is precisely because of its community.
If a bridge clearance is incorrect, a weight restriction has changed, a road has become prohibited for trucks, or a restriction has been removed, Waze editors could update the information.
This would combine something that currently does not really exist in one application:
professional truck navigation + Waze's community-driven map + real-time traffic information.
That could make Waze an extremely powerful tool for professional drivers.
I know that dedicated truck navigation systems already exist, but their biggest weakness is often the accuracy and speed at which road restrictions and other information are updated. Waze already has a huge community capable of identifying and correcting problems.
I am not asking Waze to simply add a "truck" button.
I am asking for a complete Heavy Vehicle navigation system built on the strengths that already make Waze one of the best navigation applications for cars.
For professional drivers, accurate information is not just a convenience. It can make the difference between a normal delivery and being stuck in front of a bridge, in a narrow street, or on a road where a 40-ton truck simply cannot turn around.
I sincerely hope Waze will consider giving professional drivers the same level of community-powered navigation that car drivers already enjoy.

Power Outage
Yesterday, ie Aug 13, 2026, I was traveling to Northwest Indiana. I had entered a gas station and water park as destinations. I was not aware of the power outages affecting large swaths of the area. Both the gas station and water park were closed. I nearly ran out of gas. Waze could have easily been tied into a power outage reporting website eg. Poweroutage.us and reported the danger when I entered the route.
