Rotas de risco
Bom dia! Sou usuária deste maravilhoso aplicativo há algum tempo e gostaria de parabenizá-los pela criação. Porém, algumas vezes já ocorreu da rota selecionada me enviar para dentro de favelas e áreas de risco sem nenhum alerta prévio sobre isso!Já passei por situação bastante perigosa numa violenta favela próxima de BH, um atalho indicado pelo Waze. Solicito que integrem com as informações de geoprocessamento de áreas de risco para evitar situações como a de Niterói, com a morte de uma mulher.
Grata pela atenção e certa de que cuidarão deste importante detalhe.

Retirem a informação de Policia na Via
São Paulo, 12 de agosto de 2015.
Ao Waze.Sou Cidadão da maior metrópole da America Latina, moro em São Paulo, sou usuário desta maravilhosa ferramenta chamada Waze. Ela me ajuda a sair de grandes congestionamentos, e só por esse serviço merece todos os elogios, mas ainda me permite localizar empresas, serviços, amigos, etc.
Mas não posso aceitar, que este serviço também sirva de arma de bandidos contra a Segurança dos Cidadãos. Não posso aceitar que seja possível informar a existência de fiscalização nas vias Públicas. Qual é o intuito de informar a ação Policial?
Se há algum Cidadão que necessita desta informação, com certeza ele estará transgredindo alguma Lei, seja estar alcoolizado, com irregularidades no veículo ou com habilitação invalida. E pior, pode ser um marginal fugindo da Policia, no momento em que ele é alertado pelo Waze, com certeza sairá da rota em que esta a fiscalização.
Outro detalhe, se for uma quadrilha que esteja disposta a entrar em conflito com a Policia, estes indivíduos estarão com a informação em mãos e chegarão preparados para um possível conflito, o que muito provavelmente terá a força Policial com menos chances de lutar contra estes Marginais. Por isso eu imploro, retirem esta opção de aleta de Policiais no caminho pelo bem a todos os Cidadãos que utilizam o Serviço do Waze.
Sem mais,Gilberto Gomes da Silva

Waze Prevenido
Waze debería tener en las alertas cuando pasa algo, ejemplo un robo en un sector peligroso o en las rutas colocar un color que signifique con precaución, ya que a veces el da rutas muy rápidas pero el sector por donde envía es de tolerancia.

police reports
Hi, I would like to make a suggestion for us waizers that will be very helpful. Perhaps you can add a choice to click on police report that is in the screen so that we just press on it instead of going to Reports then choosing police and then sending it. Please take in consideration that we are driving and most Likely can't stop and enter report and that by the time we enter the report we are ways further from the area we saw the police. I think everyone will benefit from this easy way to report and we will be able to aware other users much faster. Thanks

(Re)-Add a Flemish Voice
Apparently Google has removed Ellen (Flemish) voice because she was previously provided through Nuance. Google currently doesn't own/have a Flemish voice. Since Waze is owned by google this means we currently don't have a Flemish voice. So I ask if you guys could please ask for our flemish voice back. She is really missed :( FLEMISH ≠ DUTCH

אפליקציית חניונים בוויז
בלחיצת כפתור בוויז יכוון אותנו לחניונים פנויים באיזור שלנו לפי מחיר ומרחק ממיקומינו. רוב החניונים כבר מחוברים למערכת מרכזית שיודעת תפוסה כך שזה לא ניראה לי מסובך מידי
16 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

use past traffic statistics when calculating routes
waze could save statistics about average time it takes to pass each street at different times of the day (but only on work days - not vacations or weekends where traffic patterns are different). this past statistics can be valuable when routing - today, waze could lead me through areas that are more congestion prone since at the moment these areas are quite vacant. using past statistics when routing would show that by the time I'll get to these areas, there'll probably be a congestion so other paths might be better.

Include a railroad crossing information on map
Include a railroad crossing information on map will permit drivers to see where a road cross a railroad and the route machine may calculate a delay when a railroad crossing exists.

Create your own waze character(mood)
Create your own waze character I think in keeping the same "waze" concept just more variety, so if it were rush hour with Hazards everywhere I could actually find my spouse in the traffic jam by a little something different

Time-based Map Topology
In Washington, DC specifically, and in other cities around the United States (and probably around the world), certain turns are illegal between 7:00-9:30 am or 4:00-6:30 pm. More challenging, Rock Creek Park - a major commuter route that is often utilized by Waze - allows southbound traffic only between 7:00-9:30 am on mon-fri, and northbound traffic only between 4:00-6:30 pm on mon-fri. Waze is unable to factor in these restrictions, and becomes of limited usability during these times. Its really frustrating for me, and my partner. Please, please, please fix this? I'm afraid one of our phones might go flying out the window.

Locking against editing sucks
The locking against editing of streets is very annoying. On my way to work (about 30km) i found more than 10 errors, and very often I'm not allowed to correct them. It is too complicated to set an unlock request before being allowed to edit. So how can your maps improve if the normal user is not able to correct map errors?

way to tell waze I'm in the other parallel road
Sometimes waze tells me to enter the highway when it has heavy traffic and the service road I am is much faster. Then I disobey him, but it thinks I'm in the highway and keeps collection wrong data.
I think we you could have an option that when enabled and waze can't be sure in which of 2 parallel roads I am, I could tell him he got it wrong.
It must be a single touch in the screen to alternate between the roads, because I would be driving when it happens.
This way I would generate better data for waze.

Fuel efficiency
It would be a neat feature if you can enter in your odometer reading, and gas volume purchased, and every gas up you could bring up your miles/gal (or km/l). You can also tie in with gas prices to get a $/mile. You can also include a stat on the amount of CO2 released per mile.

Improve road detection while navigating
When navigating along roads that have service/access roads, the navigation will want to enter the freeway/highway/tollway/etc. If the driver stays on the access road or exits onto the access road, Waze does not detect that and keeps the location locked to the planned route. If Waze wants to route you onto a freeway/highway/tollway/etc. and you do not take the on-ramp, the app locks onto the planned route and thinks you are on the highway.
It would be nice if, when there are multiple parallel roads, that the app reduces the distance over which it will snap to a road. Another clue to the app would be if, when I stop at a stop light (or 2?) on the service road, the app then gives preference to the service road instead of the highway for current location/routing. Especially if there are other wazers that are on the main highway and traveling the posted speeds.
This will also reduce possible un-needed slow down prompts/reports to other users.

WME issues filter
Part of the daily work of map editors is to delete old URs via WME issues filter that have no activity.
Currently there is no way to filter URs older than N days and the only way to filter is to filter from date to date. This requires defining new dates each time and filtering cannot be saved.
The suggestion is to add a filter of "older than N days"15 votes -

update recent / saved drives
A lot of Update Requests come from drivers who are using saved drives for Places that have been updated or changed in the map editor.
Can we make it so after a time period (a month, for instance) the app queries the server for updates when an entry is chosen from the recent/saved drives? Or give a prompt that allows the user to manually update a saved entry, or all entries? "It's been over a month since you've driven here, would you like to see if there have been any changes?"
Also, an option (in the settings or in the long-press submenu) to update saved drives would be a useful tool.The current workflow of deleting it just to search again is rather cumbersome and confusing, and if a drive is saved in more than one place in the app it can sometimes not even be effective…
