Work start time
Changeable work start time. when setting your place of work a settable arrival time would be useful especially if you do shift work. My notifications seem synced to our opening hours so i don't get a commute notification untill over an hour after I've started.

let it give a direction to turn BEFORE the turn instead of AT the turn (which is TOO LATE, AS YOU KNOW)!

Allow showing route without starting voice navigation directions
Their time to when you want to see the route and know how long it's going to take without actually starting voice command navigation. I would suggest adding another button in the route dialog box next to the go button or the routes button that just says "Route Only", or have a checkbox there that turns off voice navigation (so when you tap Go it just shows the route and time to destination).

Layer at multi direction road
Due to modern road infrastructure, today interchange has multiple layer, in waze will show all layer as one, thus is easy to miss judge the correct lane.

Display direction of new road (e.g. I-10 *West*)
Most of the time I get messed up using Waze is when I encounter a roadway or freeway turn where there may be immediate opportunity to go either way, e.g. I-10 East or I-10 West, or TriCity Parkway North vs. TriCity Parkway South. The display shows only "I-10" or "TriCity Parkway".

Driving directions on virtual cockpit
Hey Wazers, I have found out, that when you use Apple Maps app through CarPlay, it is able to transfer information about next driving direction (for example "in 100m turn right" and an arrow) to the control unit of my car and it then shows it to me on my virtual cockpit. Since anothe iOS app can do this, I hope others should be able to, arent they? It will be really good to implement this...

Stop Waze auto starting
Stop Waze from auto starting as soon as I get in my car that has wireless Apple Car Play and for that fact even if I plug in it should not auto start. I don’t always want Waze on and it is annoying in the background beeping and alerting even without a direction. This should be an option to auto start not forced. This is an unwanted feature and like and invasion on privacy and personal choice.
I’ve tried Twitter to talk with Waze to no end, said I had to use this forum. I am forced…3 votes -
speed cameras
The alert about speed cameras warns about cameras that are positioned on the same direction the car drives, which is counterproductive.It should warn about cameras that are placed on the opposite direction, because these cameras are the ones that are relevant , they take the picture.

Afficher systématiquement les prochains changement de direction sur l'écran de voiture
Bonjour,
Actuellement chaque directive de waze (changement de direction...) est affichée en haut de l'écran (dans un rectangle noir) pour compléter les indications de guidage sur la carte. Lorsque que la directive suivante est située proche de la première un second message s'affiche avec les mots "puis ensuite ...".
Ma suggestion est d'afficher systématiquement la seconde et éventuellement la troisième directive à suivre (puisqu'il y a de la place en dessous de l'écran, surtout sur un écran de voiture).
Il est vrai que la liste des directives s'affichent systématiquement sur l'écran du téléphone (avec les distances intermédiares) lorsque ce…2 votes -
Directions alert
The “audio alert” given by the program proves to be very punctual when travelling in town or small villages, as the alerts are given with sufficient anticipation.
Instead I believe the alerting system become less effective on highways or expressways, where the speed of the vehicle is much higher and the driver’s reaction to further maneuvers is evidently reduced. There is in fact no “preliminary” alert of the subsequent step to be taken, such as “You exit will be at 1000 meters”; this preliminary alert would give, in my opinion, a sort of range of the “distance” for the future…7 votes -

Bring back auto start route
My Waze is automatically starting when I start driving.
In the past it would check my calendar, if an appointment wit location is available it offers this location. Otherwise it would offer work/home as destination. After some time it started the navigation.Currently Waze is still offering a destination. But I have to manually start navigating (which could be a huge fine)
I saw some old complaints about this function. But please bring it back with a setting for the people who don't like it.

Android auto direction on second screen
On the Honda Civic, the directions (i.e. a picture of a roundabout with the arrow coming out the right point) appears on the other screen behind the wheel. Google Maps correctly interfaces with this, but Waze displays every roundabout as a full U-turn, take the exit you entered on. Could this be fixed?

Add 'NO CELL SERVICE AHEAD'. Phase 2: Notify me @start. Phase 3:Give turn-by-turn directions, w mileage 4 the dead area.
Add 'NO CELL SERVICE AHEAD' to the list of events. If ppl keep confirming, leave it there indefinately. Methinks adding a new button just like a cop or accident shouldn't be all that difficult.
Twice lately, I've been very, very lost because I hit a dead area with no cell service.
Phase 2: Notify me @start of my trip. Phase 3:Give turn-by-turn directions, w mileage for the dead area.2 votes -
