Friends side panel is irritating
Friends side panel is irritating. I never use it and it gets in a way when I try manually zoom in: It's is super annoying when friends panel opens up when I try to scroll the map to get an I better idea where I will need to go while waiting on a red light with phone in a holder attached to a windshield.
It would be awesome if I could disable this friend panel at all!1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Add group option for friends traveling together
When you travel with friends, every time you follow one of them and this include to enter the destination for each vehicle (one waze per vehicle) just in case of one of them is lost in traffic.
The idea is to have a group option to invite your friends who travel with you to your waze group, one of them enter a destination and waze share automatically to the other group participant.
Maybe a chat can be available in the group to share about next destination or indicate an empty tank and a necessary refueling or something else.

Plan a drive feature doesn’t save
The “plan a drive” feature doesn’t ever save on my phone. Like it will save but if I close the app, it forgets about the drive. Even if I keep the app open in the background but don’t go in the app for a few hours it deletes all my planned drives. So for all intents and purposes the feature doesn’t work. I would love to use it if that can be fixed in the future.

Cambridge MA Memorial Drive closings
The Waze app never accounts for a routine road closure on Memorial Drive in Cambridge, MA, which occurs Sundays 11am-7pm from late April to early November. This creates chaos as the app continues to try to direct users back to this route. Please see the Cambridge website for more detail and exact dates: https://www.cambridgema.gov/traffic/engineeringplanning/memorialdriveclosing

Shared drive is lame -time to improve!
My Garmin watch can send a link to let a friend see my movement on the map- yours cant even do that...WTF? Your shared drive is lame, nothing more than a tiny route map and an ETA. Get with the program please

Share drive is messed up for a while
In the past(not very long ago) I could actually view the shared drive in almost real time. Now everytime I click on a shared drive link, if it opens in a browser I can see a preview of the drive with where the driver actually is but if I open the app there is just this green line that represents the whole journey. This is not helpful at all and very poorly made.

Customized pre-departure planned drive times
I’d like a setting option to be able to customize the amount of time (in minutes) before my planned drive alerts me to leave for my destination. Typically I like to arrive at least 15 minutes to my destination before my scheduled meeting time, to allow for extra preparation time or traffic considerations.

Show favorites on map
In other gps devices, your favorites show up on the map. For example if you have a friends house saved and you drive by you'll be able to see it on the map. So I think it would be nice to have your favorites show on the map all the time or at least have an option to turn on a feature like this.
92 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Add notes to each leg of a journey (drive)
When I arrive at my destination, Waze prompts me to add additional data to the drive. e.g. a category of "Business" or "Personal", comments such as "Meeting with Joe Bloggs". By combining with https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=819&t=223951&start=0 Waze becomes a great journey logger for expense claims

Eco-drive helper
For eco-drive enthusiasts, you could create a function that shows upcoming speed limits with an adjustable distance. For example, I would like to be informed about speed limits approximately 400 meters in advance, so I can deactivate the cruise control and let the car coast to the correct speed for the upcoming limit. For EVs, this would simultaneously involve regenerative braking, saving me fuel and brake pads. The environment would be cleaner, etc. Adaptive notification would be an advanced solution. It would use the g-sensor to understand my inertia and the speed difference from upcoming speed limits.
