Option to have the closest street address displayed constantly instead of just the street you're on
Lots of first responders use and rely on Waze for navigation. We always have to be aware of our exact address in order to accurately communicate our location to Dispatch. There should be a setting that, rather than just displaying the street you're currently on all the time, it always displays the closest address. I.E. instead of just saying "5100 East" as you're driving down the road, it should continuously update the house number: "2571 N 5100 E"

Cadillac Lyriq
Australian-delivered right-hand drive Cadillac Lyriq MY25, Waze as an app via Android Auto / Google Play store.
Due to the enormous (like seriously huge) display in this car, the map is orientated too far to the right, so that much of the directional information and the speed displays are obscured by the steering wheel; it also makes the response buttons to acknowledge an incident or hazard almost too far away to reach to touch the furthest side of the screen.
Can you please review the appearance and either address the off-centre nature or address the more likely issue which is that it's essentially backwards, and should be made mirror image of the current layout?
Really appreciate it. Have used Waze for a long time via Apple CarPlay, this is the first experience of being able to have Waze as a standalone app on the car directly - and I love the concept, but just need some support to refine the user experience please.

Função “no caminho”
Atualmente o app abre a lista de todos os burguer King da cidade e você enquanto dirige tem que procurar e decidir qual é mais perto, quando o que eu queria era só algo já na minha rota ou com pouco desvio

Add a button using carplay
Add a “report via voice” button on the bottom right of the map. I’m in the UK so drive on the right. So to reach over and press report button, then the furthest button away is report via voice its not easy to do while driving. A one tap button on the bottom right would make this MUCH quicker. And get rid of the voice that speaks first.. I want to make my report quickly not wait with “thinking” on the screen, then for someone to speak to me before I can report. Report via voice is meant to be quicker but you have managed to make it a slow 2 button (furthest away from driver) process

Anti-Rubbernecking Alert: Active voice prompt to prevent "curiosity" traffic jams
The Problem:
One of the main causes of heavy traffic jams on highways is drivers slowing down to look at car accidents ("rubbernecking"), even when the accident is on the shoulder or a completely different lane and does not block the traffic flow. This behavior creates "phantom traffic jams" that waste millions of driving hours and increase the risk of secondary rear-end collisions.The Solution (Feature Request):
Develop a smart, location-based alert system that activates when the following conditions are met:Detection: Waze's algorithm detects a significant slowdown near a reported accident, but also recognizes (via user reports or historical data) that the lane itself is open.
Active Alert: About 2000 meters before reaching the point, the app will play a clear and proactive voice alert (instead of just showing an icon on the map).
📢 Suggested Voice Prompt:
"Traffic ahead is caused by drivers slowing down to look at an accident. Your lane is clear, and emergency services are already on site. Please maintain your speed and keep driving safely."Why this is effective:
Behavioral Shifting: Many drivers slow down subconsciously. A direct, explicit voice alert breaks this autopilot behavior, making them aware that they are contributing to the gridlock.
Improves Traffic Flow: Breaking the chain of slowdowns for even a small percentage of drivers will prevent the domino effect and clear the jam much faster.
Safety: Reducing sudden braking near accident scenes will significantly lower the risk of chain-reaction crashes.

Ford Sync 4 Integration
Please have a look at integrating Waze into the newer Ford Sync 4 systems.
Waze works amazing well on Carplay on my Ford Everest 2023. But it really lacks the on dash turn notifications that you get with Apple and Google Maps. I love using Waze but find that I turn to Apple or Google maps especially for inner city nav.
Please add the Sync 4 and Sync 4a in to your next release. I believe Ford have make the API available via their in-Vehicle APIs (Ford AppLink).

It is too hard to enter road closures!
It is too hard to enter road closures! Waze gives directions to an exit or road that is closed. I am confused and looking for hazards. No time to enter data on your cumbersome app! We need a quick way to enter road closures . Even using the voice method is cumbersome.

To sign to give feedback is too hard! I have tried 7 times already.. typed my idea over and over
It is too hard to give feedback! Logging in again and again. Typing my idea over and over. Stop covering driving instructions with alerts! Make the alerts opaque or.. move them to a different area on the screen!

Sprachausgabe wiederholen
Manchmal habe ich die letzte Meldung in der Navigation überhört.
Daher fände ich es sinnvoll, wenn es in Waze eine Möglichkeit gäbe die letzte Ansage nochmal wiederholen zu lassen wie dies bei der ein oder anderen Navi-App möglich ist.
Vielen Dank!

Add traffic lights and stop signs
Please add traffic lights and stop signs to the map. I’ll switch back to Waze in a heartbeat if you do. It’s impossible to drive new places without them in Japan —therefore I’m forced back to Google Maps but I don’t like it as much.

Feature Request: Show Predicted Traffic Signal Status
I would like to suggest a feature that displays the predicted traffic signal status at upcoming intersections.
The idea is to estimate the signal state (Red, Yellow, or Green) using anonymous real-time movement data from Waze users. By analyzing how groups of vehicles stop, wait, and start moving through a signalized junction, Waze could infer the current traffic light phase with reasonable accuracy, even where there is no direct connection to the traffic signal system.
Possible benefits:
Helps drivers anticipate stops more smoothly.
Encourages gradual braking and acceleration, improving fuel efficiency.
Reduces unnecessary hard braking.
Provides better situational awareness, especially at unfamiliar intersections.
Can improve ETA calculations by considering expected signal delays.
A confidence indicator (for example, High/Medium/Low) could be shown since the prediction would be based on crowd-sourced vehicle movement rather than direct signal data.
This could become even more accurate as more Waze users pass through the same intersections over time.I would like to suggest a feature that displays the predicted traffic signal status at upcoming intersections.

Добрый день сделайте предупреждение голосом о камерах даже если соблюдаю скоростной режим потому что не всегда смотришь на телефон.
Не всегда получается получается смотреть на телефон где камеры и бывало что набирал скорость перед камерой потому что визуально не увидел,а было бы лучше голосовое предупреждение не зависимо от скорости.

Android Auto
Antes o Waze funcionava muito bem, mas recentemente ficou com bug: está muito devagar e travando bastante na hora de mostrar a rota quando uso no Android Auto. Isso vem acontecendo há alguns meses.

Most motorbike riders use Waze and unfortunatley the voice prompts don't work.
I would like to suggest the not there / still there options become more if it is still there you don't have to touch the screen, so it only the not there.

Waze is falling short for Motorcyclists and people who like to plan ahead! especially .gpx files
Waze is falling short for Motorcyclists and people who like to plan ahead!
Hi there,I've been riding on my motorcycle with Waze enabled for traffic information for a while now. I think I speak for every motorcyclist in the world when I say, that we don't like to stand still with a warm engine between our legs. Needless to say, we like to keep moving. Waze is great at navigating around traffic and keeping you up-to-date of where there are hazards. Because motorcyclists are more vulnerable than cars, I might even say it's more important for motorcyclists than for cars.
Waze added a feature for motorcyclists a few years back, however I don't see any change in navigation or routing. Waze keeps navigating me via boring long straight highways/express ways/motorways. Which might be great for getting from A to B in a quick way. But driving a motorcycle isn't always about going from A to B quickly. Most of the time you want to take scenic routes or implement fun stretches of road in your route. Hence why I've been using a different app for Navigation on my phone (Calimoto) and had Waze active in the background to give audible notifications of anything noteworthy.
But in all fairness, I would rather have one app for both functionalities. Especially some functionalities would also translate rather well to regular use with cars. So I would like to list some things that are in my opinion essential to having a good GPS app for motorcyclists.
Importing routes from .gpx files. (Alot of fun rides get shared amongst other motorcyclists via forums etc.)
Using a computer to plan ahead. (The browser doesn't allow the placement of waypoints)
Bendy road algorithm. (An algorithm that identifies good roads for motorcyclists, I urge you to open the Calimoto Trip Planner and search for Heiligenblut in Austria, another great example is north-west of Marbella in Spain.)A noteworthy thought I want to share with a developer who might bring this to a meeting one day hopefully.
Having more motorcyclists using Waze for navigation in backroads also provides more data of areas rarely travelled because of them being backroads. Data which can be used to further enhance the service Waze offers for all it's users.I didn't exactly know where to post this, hence why I've posted it in General Questions. Feel free to repost this message if you're a motorcyclist aswell and resonate with this sentiment. I hope the Waze developers read this and at least respond to my ideas.
