Help the less fortunate in a cash free society
In South Africa we have a lot of street beggars, traffic light sellers and car guards that we often get to know well traveling the same routes every day and we want to give them a small donations of change but so often these days people don’t have cash or change on them. It would be great if these people could register for the place they stand and list what they need, blankets food etc. then when you drive past the people they are geotagged and their face pops up on your map with a donate button. People could have an account that they top up when they want to and then set donation limits like one or two Rand per donation Money goes towards what they need. Once enough donations are gathered for a specific person they are given items on their list for that monetary value. The people who donated would get a notification to say the person they donated too now has food for the week or a blanket for winter or their kids school uniform has been delivered. Clicking on their profile could also share some information like their first name, home language etc which could almost act like a CV for them and make them feel seen, greeted by name and maybe even in their own language feeling accepted and uplifted.

The latest versions of WAZE doesn't function on Android 8.0
Since version 4.102.0.3 - versions 4.105.02 and 4.107.0.1 doesn't boot and crash immediately upon opening.
I always go back to use 4.102.0.3 version APK through this link: https://waze.en.uptodown.com/android/versions

Eingeben von Straßensperrungen vor der Abfahrt
Wenn man im Vorfeld weiß, dass eine bestimmte Straße gesperrt ist und dies von Waze nicht angezeigt wird, sollte es die Möglichkeit geben, dies direkt zu melden und nicht erst direkt vor Ort. Das bedeutet oftmals einen großen Umweg, nur damit man das Problem melden kann.

Android Auto Feature Parity
Android Auto is lacking a lot of features as opposed to the mobile phone app.
Many of them are already requested here, but I just see Ella (Waze team) marking them all as "NOT RIGHT NOW", without much extra info as to why not. ("Great thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.")
@Ella please take the time to think them over a bit more critically, some are just absurd why they are not going to be implemented.
For example one critical missing feature is reporting is road closures, triggering a reroute without that road. No way to do it.Another missing feature is the "progress bar" while driving through an average speed check zone. I can imagine it would be pretty low effort to put a colored line at the side of the screen, especially since the Android app already has the logic for it.
Showing comments: no way to read a comment on the map (or even have it read out loud by assistant or something). This can often contain some critical information about an accident or closure.
When selecting a new destination, there is no option to select a planned drive or upcoming events from your synced calendars.
I'm actually pretty certain this was actually there at one point. Where did it go?!
There's a lot more, and it currently feels like Android Auto is just ignored a bit at the Waze offices.
Please take this suggestion as a cry for help from an increasing number of vehicles with Android Auto built-in who really like Waze on their phone, but find the missing features really breaking the experience.
Please try to have some more developers put on the Android Auto development for a few weeks / months to crank out some much needed features.If this isn't possible, at least try to get it done that we can use Waze on our phone while android auto is running. Now we can't even access the missing features without completely disconnecting our phone from the car to just report a road closure or something.
Please, please help.

"Not there" option for all incidents on route clickable, not just on alerts
When on route, when there are multiple reports and alerts for police or cars on a side of road it only alerts you of only one, there others sometimes are just missed to click the "not there" option and the alert stays there for others. You should be able to click the report and show the "not there" option all times, not just the like button.

Speed bump notification not working well
I am using Waze for navigation and speed bumbs notifications not appeard on my screen while navigating while it is working well with other users using the same route and at the same time, I suggest to solve this issue if other users face the same issue, and I suggest to make the speed bumbs notifications works even if I use the same way multiple times in the day.

Speedometer Calibration
I’ve noticed a consistent discrepancy between the speed shown in your app and the actual speed displayed on my car’s speedometer. For instance, when I’m driving at 120 km/h, the app shows 115 km/h. I’ve tested this across multiple vehicles, and the gap of about 5 km/h seems consistent.
Could you please consider adding an option in the app to adjust or calibrate the speedometer reading? This would help users ensure more accurate speed tracking while driving.1 vote -
Drop my own Pins while driving - Much like reporting a hazard - So I can look them up later
When I'm driving I often see houses for sale or other interesting things I wish i could look up when I got home. Or maybe I am a business owner who roofs homes, and i see a bad roof, i want to reach out to the owner later.. An easy way for me to save a location to my account for later review would be awesome. It would have to be easy and quick like reporting a road hazard or police. Just saves to my Waze account.

Leave early for calendar event
Calendar integration for planned drives is cool and I use it a lot — it would be even better if I could specify that I want to aim to arrive to an event X minutes early without having to set up a separate planned drive.

Show route turns on landscape and portrait mode
The upcoming turn-by-turn directions would populate in landscape mode not too long ago. Now, it only shows a zoomed out version of the map. Why would anyone not want directions like they do in portrait mode? This was an awful update which caused me to nearly have three accidents in my vehicle without CarPlay. I have had to resort to Apple Maps and google maps because Waze appears to care more about voices and cool features instead of functionality!

Restart After Stop consistently direct me to turn the wrong way
For some reason, even though I was using waze and for instance, stopped at a gas station or other stop, when I turn waze back on and program my next destination, it consistently tells me to turn the wrong way (right when I need to go left, left when I need to go right, etc). Can't WAZE store my exact orientation and location at the end of each route and know exactly which way I am facing when I turned the car off, so that it will use that as a staring point the next time I select a destination and my GPS location is the same as it was when I reached the last destination?

It is very difficult to properly designate road hazards while I am driving the car.
Add 3 one push ICONs to the far right of the screen for the most common hazards we will experience: POLICE, TRAFFIC, CAR ON SHOULDER
This way I do not have to be distracted and risk an accident while still being able to accurately provide accurate and timely input for drivers behind me that are using WAZE.

Plan a drive when location is not valid
Waze is totally not usable when location is not available, this is now happening very often due to GPS spoofing/jamming. It would be nice to still use the app (ie: plan a drive, see the roads status etc)

Add SOS waypoints
Motorways, Highways, and interstate's can be dangerous places to be roadside walking. Display icons at each emergency roadside assistance calling points (SOS Points) for use during breakdowns/accidents/emergencies. This would make it obvious which is within the shortest walk distance so as to avoid unnecessary delays in emergencies.

Speed camera alert under menu Police
Hi
After my last voyage I found that waze doesn't have a lot of marked speed cameras the same with sectional speed measurement. For example in Czech republic. I had to use other app to get alerts. Why waze let us Mark speed cameras In new menu or under police menu. It would be easier to refresh database.
Under police should be option to mark type of services like border guards, police or road inspection of transport.1 vote -
