Smart Dynamic Zoom and Visual Clean-up at Complex Junctions
Title: Smart Dynamic Zoom and Visual Clean-up at Complex Junctions
Description:
The Problem:
In dense urban areas with complex junctions (roundabouts, overpasses, multiple highway lanes, and exits), the Waze screen becomes heavily cluttered with nearby icons and secondary street names. Because the map view stays small, drivers have to look at the screen for too long to figure out which exact lane or exit to take. This distraction takes the driver's focus away from the road, increasing the risk of accidents and causing traffic disruptions when trying to change lanes at the last second.The Solution:
Waze should implement a "Smart Focus Mode" before approaching complex maneuvers:Dynamic Auto-Zoom: As the vehicle approaches a critical turn or exit, the map should automatically zoom in significantly to make the exact path, lanes, or overpasses crystal clear.
Contextual Clean-up: During this zoom phase, all nearby non-essential icons and text should be temporarily hidden, returning to default right after the maneuver is completed.
User Control: This feature should be fully customizable. Users should be able to turn the Auto-Zoom on/off and set their preferred zoom level in the settings.
The Benefit:
Drivers will need only a quick glance to fully understand the next move, drastically reducing screen distraction time. This means more time focusing on the road, fewer missed exits, fewer abrupt lane changes, and a safer, smoother flow of traffic.Title: Smart Dynamic Zoom and Visual Clean-up at Complex Junctions

Adding what lane to be in, direction to go in and one after, stop signs, stop lights, real map features showing places nearby, multiple stop
I use Apple Maps currently because it shows what lane to be in at all times, the direction to go where to turn and then the turn after which helps me prepare, stop signs, stop lights, and it shows a real map with restaurants and places nearby like the names of them. I also want to be able to add numerous stops and arrange them. I want to use waze because it is more personalized with human use and it shows cops and accidents and traffic better, but I can't use directions without the things listed above as it makes it way easier for me. I would love to switch over to waze but I have to wait till these updates are installed as they are vital for a good driving experience for me.

Suppression radar limité
Bonjour
Certaine personne s’amusent à supprimer les radars fixe.
Après recherche sur internet je suis tombé sur un commentaire Facebook :Le voici :
Nous sommes très nombreux à les supprimer volontairement.
La loi française impose une zone légale pour les systèmes de navigation.
Indiquer l'emplacement exact est interdit.
Waze doit être un système de navigation et prévenir des dangers.
Un radar n'est pas un danger bien au contraire.
Il sert à protéger les honnêtes conducteurshttps://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DKwH4rbkW/?mibextid=wwXIfr
Cela serait bien, qu’on n’est pas la possibilité de supprimer les radars ou si il y a par exemple 100 comptes différents sur 2semaines qui indiquent qu’il n’y a plus de radars.
Cela éviterait que des abruti comme la personne sur FB s’amuse à supprimer les radarsMerci

Add “gawking” & “poor driving” to hazards
Please add “gawking” and poor driving or poor driver as options under hazards to explain traffic as these are some of the more common causes of traffic on highways where I live

When using Waze on iPhone 16 Pro in landscape mode, there is a large black bar at the top of the screen.
When using Waze on iPhone 16 Pro in landscape mode, there is a large black bar at the top of the screen. This makes using the app in landscape mode not really viable as there is a lot of wasted space. Is this something that can be fixed?
Overall, using waze in landscape has a lot of wasted space, the ETA bar takes up way too much space as well.

predictive route distribution to avoid app-created congestion - distribución predictiva de rutas para evitar congestión
Sugerencia de función: distribución predictiva de rutas para evitar congestión creada por la propia app
Hola equipo de Waze:
Me gustaría sugerir una función de rutas que podría ayudar a prevenir la congestión causada cuando muchos usuarios reciben la misma recomendación de usar la “mejor” ruta al mismo tiempo.
La idea es que Waze no solo calcule la ruta más rápida para cada conductor de forma individual, sino que también estime cuántos usuarios están siendo guiados actualmente hacia esa misma ruta. Si la app detecta que recomendar la misma ruta a demasiados conductores podría crear o empeorar la congestión, podría distribuir inteligentemente a los usuarios por lotes entre rutas alternativas cercanas.
Por ejemplo, en vez de enviar a miles de conductores por la misma calle que en ese momento parece ser la más rápida, Waze podría recomendar la Ruta A a un grupo, la Ruta B a otro grupo y la Ruta C a otro, considerando el impacto proyectado en el tráfico, la capacidad de cada vía, el tiempo de viaje y la equidad entre los usuarios.
Esto podría ayudar a que Waze pase de un sistema de rutas principalmente reactivo a uno más preventivo: no solo detectando los tacos después de que ocurren, sino también evitando la congestión que podría ser creada por las propias recomendaciones de ruta.
La función podría considerar:
- Volumen de tráfico actual y proyectado.
- Cantidad de usuarios de Waze que están siendo guiados hacia cada ruta.
- Capacidad de la vía y tipo de calle.
- Rutas alternativas cercanas.
- Distribución justa, para que los mismos usuarios o barrios no sean siempre perjudicados.
- Protección de calles residenciales, evitando enviar demasiado tráfico por zonas no preparadas para recibirlo.
La app podría mostrar una explicación simple como:
“Ruta alternativa recomendada: ayuda a evitar congestión proyectada más adelante.”
Entiendo que es una función compleja, pero creo que podría mejorar significativamente la movilidad urbana, reducir el estrés al conducir y beneficiar a toda la comunidad de usuarios.
Gracias por considerar esta idea.
Hello Waze team,
I would like to suggest a routing feature that could help prevent congestion caused by many users being recommended the same “best” route at the same time.
The idea is that Waze could not only calculate the fastest route for each individual driver, but also estimate how many users are currently being guided toward that same route. If the app detects that recommending the same route to too many drivers could create or worsen congestion, it could intelligently distribute users in batches across nearby alternative routes.
For example, instead of sending thousands of drivers through the same currently-fast street, Waze could recommend Route A to one group, Route B to another group, and Route C to another group, based on projected traffic impact, road capacity, travel time, and fairness between users.
This could help Waze move from reactive routing to preventive routing: not only detecting traffic jams after they happen, but avoiding congestion that may be created by routing recommendations themselves.
The feature could consider:
- Current and projected traffic volume.
- Number of Waze users being guided to each route.
- Road capacity and type of street.
- Nearby alternative routes.
- Fair distribution, so the same users or neighborhoods are not always disadvantaged.
- Residential street protection, to avoid sending excessive traffic through unsuitable areas.
The app could show a simple explanation such as:
“Recommended alternative route: helps avoid projected congestion ahead.”
I understand this is a complex feature, but I believe it could significantly improve urban mobility, reduce travel stress, and benefit the whole driving community.
Thank you for considering this idea.

Ik ontvang geregeld een mondelinge melding : " u nadert een flitspaal". Waarom gebeurd dit niet bij de nadering van een trajectcontrole aub ? Is het mogelijk om ook dan n stem te horen zeggen: "u nadert een trajectcontrole" aub. Bedankt ! Met vriendelijke groeten, Dirk

Promotie van nieuwe feature
Jullie promoten de nieuwe feature van inspreken van meldingen door een pop-up OVER de navigatie heen te plaatsen!!! Ik rij op een motor en kan met mijn handschoen die pop-up niet wegklikken! Dit frustreert enorm terwijl ik probeer om de navigatie gewoon te gebruiken. Haal deze pop-up alstublieft zo snel mogelijk weg!!

Il ne faut pas annoncer "controle de vitesse moyenne" si ce n'est pas un radar tronçon.
Pour les radars, vous annoncez toujours "Contrôle de vitesse moyenne" alors que ce n'est le cas que des radar tonçon uniquement, et ils sont rares en France.

Credibilidade dos Alertas
Policiais estão com celular na mão para desmarcar o alerta no mesmo momento que adicionamos. Teria que haver uma segurança para isso. Acredito não ser difícil entender que um wazer desmarcando "alertas" nas mesmas coordenadas seja alguém parado ali para prejudicar os outros, como o caso do policial. Sugiro que um mesmo wazer não possa desmarcar um alerta de radar na mesma região mais de uma vez no dia, e que um alerta de radar móvel/polícia só seja desmarcado após 5 wazers diferentes marcarem como "inexistente" o alerta. Que de alguma forma seja , os wazers (no caso policial) que desmarcam muitos alerta sejam suspeitos e seus alertas de "inexistentes" sejam bloqueados por um período, 30 dias por exemplo. Da mesma forma, já previnindo, sugiro também que o wazer que cadastra muitos alertas no mesmo dia, que são negados por outros wazers que passam, sejam suspeitos de atrapalhar a credibilidade do aplicativo, e da mesma forma recebam bloqueios temporários e até suspensão da funcionalidade.

Sugestie adăugare tip carburant electric în Waze
Bună,
Folosesc aplicația Waze și am observat că la opțiunile de tip de carburant lipsesc mașinile electrice. În contextul actual, tot mai mulți șoferi folosesc vehicule electrice și ar fi util să existe această opțiune în setări și în planificarea rutelor.
Vă rog să luați în considerare adăugarea tipului „electric” pentru a îmbunătăți experiența utilizatorilor care conduc astfel de mașini.
Mulțumesc.1 vote -
Share speed and alert erratic driving
I suggest expanding the 'Share ETA' feature into an active safety pairing mode. When sharing a drive with a trusted, close contact, they should see a real-time telemetry dashboard that includes:
Live Speed vs. Speed Limit: Display my current speed next to the local speed limit so they know I'm navigating conditions safely.
Sudden Deceleration Alerts: A proactive notification if the vehicle drops speed abruptly (e.g., braking from 65 mph to 0 mph in 3 seconds), indicating a potential hazard or sudden traffic wall.
Erratic Driving Flags: If the phone's gyroscope and GPS detect sudden, repeated swerving or erratic braking, the observer is quietly notified so they can call to check on the driver (useful for fatigue or medical issues).
