### Feature Request: Personalized Cost per Minute for Route Selection I would like to suggest a feature that would make Waze's route select
Feature Request: Personalized Cost per Minute for Route Selection
I would like to suggest a feature that would make Waze's route selection much more useful.
Currently, Waze will normally recommend the faster route, even when the time difference is very small and the faster route includes a significant toll.
For example:
- Route A: 42 minutes, no toll
- Route B: 40 minutes, $6 toll
Waze will normally choose Route B because it is faster, even though I am paying $6 just to save 2 minutes.
I don't want to completely disable toll roads, because sometimes paying a toll is absolutely worth it when the time savings are significant.
My suggestion
Add a setting that allows the user to define how much they are willing to pay for each minute saved.
For example:
"I am willing to pay up to $0.50 for each minute saved."
Waze could then use this preference when deciding which route to recommend.
For example:
- Toll: $6
- Time saved: 2 minutes
- Cost per minute saved: $3/minute
Since my limit is $0.50/minute, Waze would recommend the free route.
But if the same $6 toll saves me 20 minutes:
- $6 ÷ 20 minutes = $0.30/minute
Waze would recommend the toll road.
Include fuel costs as well
The calculation could also take fuel consumption and fuel costs into account.
Waze could compare the total additional cost of a route:
Toll + additional fuel cost
against:
Time saved × user's value per minute
This would allow Waze to choose the route that provides the best overall value.
For example:
- Route A: 45 minutes, $0 toll, $3 fuel
- Route B: 35 minutes, $6 toll, $2 fuel
Route B costs an additional $5 but saves 10 minutes.
If the user has set their maximum value at $0.50 per minute, 10 minutes are worth $5, so Waze would know that the faster route is right at the user's limit.
Suggested setting
Maximum amount I am willing to pay per minute saved:
- $0 – Never pay for time savings
- $0.25/minute
- $0.50/minute
- $1/minute
- $2/minute
- Custom amount
This would be much more flexible than simply choosing "Avoid toll roads."
It would allow Waze to understand that I am willing to pay for saving time, but only when the time savings justify the additional cost.
This would prevent situations where I pay several dollars simply to save 2 or 3 minutes, while still allowing me to use toll roads when they provide substantial time savings.

Traffic Light Timing
Traffic Light Timing
Add a timer showing how much time remains until the green light turns off, as well as how much longer to wait until the next green light.
This information can be calculated relatively easily based on user statistics. For example, if a car passes through a road intersection where there is a traffic light, we can assume that the light is green. If the car stops, we can assume that the light is red, and so on.
Under the right conditions, it may be possible to achieve an accuracy of approximately one second for each traffic light.

Scooter
Objet : URGENT — Demande d'ajout d'itinéraires adaptés : Scooter 50 cc, Trottinette électrique et EDPM
Bonjour aux équipes de développement,
Je vous contacte pour signaler un manque critique dans les profils de navigation actuels, qui génère d'importants risques de sécurité et de nombreuses infractions pour les utilisateurs de deux-roues et de mobilités douces motorisées.
Aujourd'hui, les profils disponibles ne correspondent plus à la réalité du Code de la route :
-
Pour les Scooters / Cyclomoteurs 50 cc :
- Le mode Voiture envoie sur le périphérique, les voies rapides et les autoroutes (interdit et extrêmement dangereux en 50 cc).
- Le mode Vélo (utilisé par défaut par beaucoup pour éviter les voies rapides) guide le scooter sur des pistes cyclables, des voies vertes ou des voies piétonnes. C'est illégal, dangereux pour les cyclistes et passible de 135 € d'amende.
-
Pour les Trottinettes électriques (EDPM) :
- Le mode Vélo classique envoie parfois sur des départementales à 80 km/h ou des axes interurbains hors agglomération sans piste cyclable, où la circulation des trottinettes est strictly interdite par la loi.
- Le mode Piéton fait emprunter des trottoirs, des zones piétonnes ou des escaliers, ce qui est strictement interdit aux trottinettes électriques sous peine d'amende.
La solution urgente à intégrer :
Mettre à jour vos algorithmes pour créer deux profils de navigation distincts :
- Profil « Scooter / 50 cc » : Voies urbaines uniquement, en excluant les axes à plus de 70 km/h / voies rapides / autoroutes ET en excluant les pistes cyclables / voies vertes.
- Profil « Trottinette électrique / EDPM (25 km/h) » : Itinéraires urbains sécurisés privilégiant les pistes cyclables et rues à 30/50 km/h, en excluant totalement les trottoirs, les voies rapides et les axes interurbains non aménagés.Merci de transmettre cette demande à vos équipes produit et ingénieurs pour mettre enfin vos cartes à jour avec la législation actuelle.
Cordialement.

Waze Android Automotive Integration Issues – 2026 Lincoln Nautilus
Dear Waze Support Team,
I am experiencing two persistent integration issues with the built-in Waze application on my 2026 Lincoln Nautilus, which uses Android Automotive OS / Google built-in.
I downloaded Waze directly from the vehicle’s Google Play Store and use it actively for navigation in Dubai, UAE.
My current Waze version is:
Waze Version: 5.22.10.3
Updated on: August 3, 2026The application itself works correctly on the main center multimedia display, but there appear to be problems with the integration between Waze and the vehicle’s additional displays.
- Incomplete Waze information on the upper instrument / driver display
My vehicle has a large upper driver display in addition to the center multimedia screen.
When I use Waze directly on the center screen, I can see all normal Waze information, including:
• Speed camera / radar alerts
• Police reports
• Accidents
• Stopped vehicles
• Hazards
• Other Waze map/report icons
• Full route guidanceHowever, this information is not properly transferred to the upper driver display.
While the Waze route itself can appear on the upper display, I do not receive the same useful navigation information there.
For example, I cannot properly see:
• Waze incident/report icons
• Speed camera / radar alerts
• Detailed upcoming exit information
• Clear turn-by-turn exit guidance
• Remaining distance to the destination
• Remaining travel time
• Distance to the next maneuverThis is particularly important while driving because the upper display is directly in the driver’s field of view.
I have attached photographs showing how Waze is displayed in my vehicle.
Could you please confirm whether full instrument-cluster integration is currently supported by Waze on the 2026 Lincoln Nautilus / Lincoln Digital Experience platform?
If this functionality is supported, please investigate why the navigation data is not being properly passed to the vehicle’s driver display.
- Waze route does not appear in the home-screen navigation widget
There is also a second issue.
When I start navigation in Waze and remain inside the Waze application, the route works normally.
However, when I press the Home button on the vehicle’s center multimedia display, the navigation widget on the home screen does not show my active Waze route.
Instead, it continues to display Google Maps.
This happens even though Waze navigation is actively running at the same time.
As shown in the attached photograph:
• Waze navigation is active on the upper driver display;
• however, the center multimedia home screen continues to show Google Maps.I cannot find any setting that allows me to change the home-screen navigation widget from Google Maps to Waze.
Could you please confirm whether Waze is supposed to integrate with the Android Automotive home-screen navigation widget on the Lincoln Digital Experience platform?
If it should, please investigate why Google Maps remains displayed even while Waze is the active navigation application.
Vehicle and system information
Vehicle: 2026 Lincoln Nautilus
Infotainment platform: Lincoln Digital Experience
Operating system: Android Automotive OS / Google built-in
Location: Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Waze version: 5.22.10.3
Waze update date: August 3, 2026I have attached photographs demonstrating both issues.
I would appreciate it if this case could be escalated to the team responsible for Android Automotive OS / instrument-cluster / multi-display integration, as this appears to be an integration issue rather than a basic navigation or account problem.
Please also let me know whether either of these limitations is currently known on Lincoln vehicles, and whether a future update is planned.
Thank you for your assistance.
Kind regards,
Fatih Buyukhan

Además de mi vehículo habitual moderno, utilizo un vehículo muy antiguo (un Ford de 1929) con el que, junto a más socios del club, utilizamos regularmente. Qué pasa con estos vehículos? bueno, que por su edad no circulan a las altas velocidades de los coches modernos y sería muy útil que yo pudiera indicarlo en la aplicación "soy un vehículo LENTO" y que avise a otros conductores que más adelante se encontrarán con mi coche que circula a 30-40-60 Kmh más lento que el suyo, por ejemplo, y evitar un accidente por alcance. Creo que también serviría para ciclistas, vehículos agrícolas, etc... Sobre todo de noche, sería una GRAN TRANQUILIDAD para los que vamos con estos viejitos.

Commercial Vehicle
Due to having A work van I would be amazed to see a commercial vehicle feature where the speed limit sign is reduced on single (50mph) and duel (60mph) carriageways
With this feature it would be nice to have a function where you can put weight and height and width dimensions in and the route chosen avoids bridges and tunnels that commercial vehicles are unable to use
I believe that it would also be nice to have early announcements maybe as an option where it will warn you of a camera early in advance
On top of this I think it would also be nice to have the speed camera warning tone go off even if you weren’t breaking the speed limit of the road incase of a motorway smart motorway for example

Oggetto: Richiesta Accessibilità - Icone troppo piccole in moto
Chiedo l'implementazione di una opzione di accessibilità "Icone Grandi / High Visibility" (2x - 3x).
Utilizzo in moto con lenti progressive e visiera casco: allo stato attuale qualsiasi icona (autovelox, pericolo, polizia) risulta illeggibile e viene percepita come un puntino indistinto.
Questo costringe a sforzare la vista e riduce la sicurezza.
Una modalità con icone ad alto contrasto e ingrandite sarebbe fondamentale per utenti con ipovisione leggera e per l'uso motociclistico.1 vote -

Visible and alerts needs to be more visible
The services alerts like police, cameras road work, potholes etc are barely visible if at all.
I would like yo see flashing ui that really alers of the danger.
The current alerts are barely visible.
Also it would be good if there was a ui that allowed us to pick what alerts we want to have a bigger impact on the app, so that we can select which one will display the above ******* (?) alerts and sound

Mettre la signification "STOP" sur la carte Waze
Après l'ajout des feux tricolores sur Waze, il est peut-être le temps de mettre les significations "STOP" sur la carte et sur les routes. Cela permettra aux utilisateurs de mieux savoir où sont les panneaux/significations "STOP" sur la route en même temps sur la carte, et en plus éviter de se prendre de grosses amendes pour avoir grillé sans faire exprès les panneaux "STOP".

Et bien entendu s'il y aura l'ajout, mettre à jour les voix en mettant au début de la phrase avant la prononciation des adresses "Au Stop".
