This needs fixing
Since the Gemini update things have got worse....
Unable to vocally report bugs/feedback
Unable to vocally report lane blockages
No doubt there are a lot more issues when it comes to using voice to report issues as well...
Also STILL when navigating on a major road the voice prompt for turn left/right only tells you when you are at the junction/turn off, this is way too late & could cause an accident.1 vote -
I am a police traffic officer, I would like to share my map location to Wazers where I am active driving in emergency mode or blocked roads.
When my in-car lights and siren is activated I can create a signal output, which would be able to turn on live GPS information so Wazers can see which direction I am going, if I'm in their way, and let them know if they might be in my direction. This way, Wazers can slow or choose a different direction if say a road is blocked due to a crash, or if it would help them move out of traffic so that they do not get hit by drivers that are not paying attention.

NO More halloween
Hello. It is regrettable that Waze has changed its main or welcome screen to a Halloween pumpkin. Please show some respect for the millions of us users who do NOT agree with this trashy celebration. Thank you.

Add an option to prevent navigation from ending automatically upon arrival
Hello Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature that allows users to keep navigation active even after reaching their destination.
Currently, when I arrive at my destination, Waze automatically ends the navigation. However, sometimes I cannot find an available parking space and need to drive around nearby streets.
In these situations, the navigation route disappears, even though I have not parked my car yet.
It would be extremely useful to have an optional setting called “End Navigation Manually” or “Keep Navigation Active Until I Stop It.”
This would allow drivers to continue seeing their destination and route on the map while searching for parking.
Ideally, Waze could also automatically recalculate the route if the driver passes the destination without stopping.
I believe this feature would improve the driving experience for many Waze users, especially in busy cities where finding parking can be difficult.
Thank you for considering my suggestion!

Tiene problemas al trabajar con Android Auto en pantalla dividida muestra las notificaciones a todo lo ancho de la pantalla ocultando gran parte del mapa e imposibilitando poder ver y navegar cómodamente. Por otro lado, al tener la ventana completa las notificaciones son muy reducidas como deberían de verse en la pantalla dividida.

Favorite/saved assistant
The current assistants screen is a bit clunky, you can only check the assistants one at a time and then by default it goes back up to the top.
The assistants are great, I love being able to choose a specific voice, but it would be nice to have a "favorite" or "saved" assistants so we could actually comb through and find ones we might like to try temporarily or switch between for a season.

friends
Would be nice to have the option to add friends, see their location if friends allowed the permission with time limit. and also see friends location and speed that they are travelling at, and as well as drive to the same location. for example, if one person chooses the location, the app will broadcast it to other friends on the same trip, like a circle that they have been invited in, and press yes or no to follow the trip. That would make waze a game changer for travelling and see location to be able to see your friends or family location for safety.

Save Lives on the Road: Add Animal Crossing Alerts
We are a LEGO League team of 4th graders from Arlington VA who have done a lot of research and spoken to many experts on the problem of wildlife‑vehicle crashes. We’re asking Waze to help reduce wildlife‑vehicle crashes nationwide and save our ecosystem. Waze can tap into existing databases from dept of transportation and vehicle insurance companies which track animal related road accidents to identify those areas.
Every year in the U.S., there are ~1.5 million deer‑vehicle collisions, causing over $1 billion in damage, 200 deaths, and 10,000 injuries. The total national cost of wildlife‑vehicle collisions reaches $8.5 billion annually.
We propose 2 simple features:
Automatic Animal‑Crossing Alerts
Use national wildlife‑crossing data to show permanent warnings just like average‑speed‑control or curve alerts whenever drivers enter a high animal density crossing area.Real‑Time “Animal on Road” Report Button
Let drivers report animal sightings instantly, just like police or hazard reports.These small changes could save lives, save money, prevent crashes, and protect wildlife across the country.
Please upvote to help make Waze even safer!

Permanently Map Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) Cameras Using DeFlock Data
Feature Request — Permanently Map Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) Cameras Using DeFlock Data
I would like to request that your navigation platform add Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) cameras, including Flock Safety cameras and similar roadside surveillance systems, as a permanent map feature.
Currently, navigation applications display permanent infrastructure such as traffic signals, speed cameras, and red-light cameras, but generally do not distinguish ALPR surveillance cameras as their own category.
These cameras are increasingly common along public roads, and I believe drivers should have the ability to see where they are located.
Proposed functionality:
- Add ALPR cameras as a dedicated permanent camera category, distinct from speed and red-light enforcement cameras.
- Display camera locations and, where available, the direction of surveillance.
- Allow users to enable or disable ALPR camera visibility and approaching-camera notifications.
- Support verified additions, removals, and corrections to the camera database.
- Explore integrating existing camera location data from DeFlock (https://maps.deflock.org/) and its underlying OpenStreetMap contributors.
- Investigate an automated data integration that periodically synchronizes camera locations as the database changes.
I currently report cameras manually through Waze, but individual reports are not a practical or scalable way to document the large number of permanent ALPR installations.
The DeFlock project already maintains a substantial crowdsourced database, making it a promising starting point for a more comprehensive solution.
This feature would improve transparency about roadside surveillance infrastructure and allow drivers to make more informed decisions about their travel.
I am requesting that ALPR cameras be treated as their own infrastructure category rather than incorrectly classified as police activity, speed cameras, or red-light cameras.
Thank you for considering this feature and a potential integration with the DeFlock project.

display
Hello Waze Team,
I would like to suggest adding a colorblind-friendly option to the Waze display settings. The blue words on the black background are very difficult for me to read. Greater contrast between the text and its background would make the information much easier to see at a glance.
An option to change the text color, select a high-contrast mode, or choose a colorblind-friendly color scheme would be very helpful. Using brighter text against the dark background could significantly improve readability.
While driving, it is important to be able to read the information quickly without spending extra time looking at the screen. More contrasting text colors would make Waze easier to use for people with color vision difficulties.
Please consider adding this option in a future update. If there is already a setting that can improve the contrast of the blue text on the black background, I would appreciate instructions on how to enable it.

Ortsnamen
Es sollte eine Möglichkeit geben Ortsnamen in Landessprache anzusagen, auch wenn man für die Navigationshinweise zum Beispiel Deutsch nutzt. Die oftmals englische Aussprache ist nämlich manchmal sehr befremdlich. Aufgefallen ist mir das zuletzt ganz extrem in Rumänien. Straßen- und Ortsnamen werden dann irgendwie Englisch gesprochen.
