Audible camera announcements are inconsistent. Why not allow the user to select ‘Announce all known Cameras’?

Add missing public EV charger networks (here for Belgium)
For Belgium, I noted a few major players of EV charging stations are missing in the EV charger list. Like Sparki, Optimile, Electra. Also smaller ones , like EnergyVision , novoeco , Porsche Connect , Road BV , Volvo Charging , ...
As this is a dynamic world (and I expect further consolidation etc), it would be great to link your database to a reliable online source / catalog(s) of EV chargers / speed chargers.
And I indeed believe it makes sense to show them per country, it would be great if I could select the relevant networks of other countries where I travel frequently.For Belgium, I noted a few major players of EV charging stations are missing in the EV charger list.

Show if a result search is Waze place or Google Maps place
Show if a result search is Waze place or Google Maps place. Sometimes we search a place and shows first the google maps result and in the end of the list the Waze place result. Maybe a G and the Waze symbol instead the pin on results list would be better to know what is what.

Battery Saver always on
Option to have battery saver always-on by default. It's a poor user experience to have to set this manually for EVERY journey for those that want to have the battery as high as practitable before exiting the car and/or save their OLED screens from burning. Not everyone uses a charger in the car. And most phones use OLED screens.
'Automatically turn on' is there as an option, but it waits for battery to become low before kicking in, which rather defeats the object of saving battery (it's too late if it's already become low!) and meanwile you risk burning the screen too...
I think this idea was rejected earlier, but that was two years ago and the issue persists.

Introduce a Waze for trucks and caravans
Increasingly people are relying more and more on navigation. The app provides the quickest and most direct routes which is great for normal circumstances. However, trucks, Lorrie’s, large motor homes are not taken into consideration. I live near a golf course where a small road crosses the fairways and we are seeing more and more large vehicles on a road which is totally unsuitable for them and can often get stuck. There needs to be a version which keeps trucks and towing vehicles on appropriate roadways. There are ‘caravan related sat nav’s such as Co pilot and perhaps Waze can develop one too.

Max speed!
For me, there's only one simple addition that would make Waze the perfect GPS. The ability to enter the max allowed speed for the vehicle. For truck-drivers, caravan-drivers e.g. you're not allowed to reach the max speed on motorways e.g., so you'll manually have to calculate the additional time to your destination. TomTomGO has this. Make it happen! :)

Large RV and Trucks
Please consider adding large RV and trucks many routes have sharp turns and low bridges. You can charge $3 per month and gain hundreds of thousands of users. I’d happily promote this service for you

Trucker Version
Develop a trucker setting, or perhaps an entirely separate 'Trucker Waze' app for those of us running larger vehicles. We need to know about low clearance overpasses/bridges, narrow lanes and one lane bridges, weight restrictions, etc. For example, I pull oversized trailers up and down the East Coast (USA). I am 14'6" high, and 10'6" wide. You could even buy Trucker Path and add all the Waze functionality...

Reporting hazards with Siri using Apple CarPlay and Waze
Waze has possibility to use Siri shortcuts to navigate home, work or other destinations, as well as setting level of notifications. Please add possibility to report hazards like police, stopped vehicle on the road, road works, traffic etc. Using Siri, this would increase safety dramatically as a driver would not need to touch the screen for that multiple times.

Take a break on Roadside Rest Areas
When traveling on a highway using Waze, on pulling in to a known rest stop, Waze eagerly tries to get you back on your route. Waze should be able to discern that you've taking a break. Suggestion: when following a route on a highway, and you pull into a known rest area, Waze should pop up and say "Are you taking a break? yes / no"
Upon the user responding "yes," Waze goes into a pause and does not offer any further suggestions, until the phone unit is detected moving at better than 15 mph. This would help reduce confusion on entering a new rest area, such as when Waze advises "turn left" but in a private car you are supposed to "turn right" in that parking lot, etc.

Display current speed and limit when approaching speed camera
Currently speed camera alert covers whole bottom screen and hides current speed and allowed speed.
It would be super useful even just to see allowed speed!

Police Otherside has been eliminated?!
Police Otherside has been eliminated?! Not showing on roads previously used. Police other side is gone from choices. Why? Many municipalities are about revenue and not safety. Artificially low speed limits are cash cows.

Adding the option for a visual timer
It would be so helpful to have an integrated visual timer on the map. My child has a disability and visuals are so important to our daily life. I find myself toggling back and forth when using navigation and it can be difficult to manually adjust the time when there’s traffic or other delays. Having an integrated visual timer would be so helpful to families like ours!

Route suggestion
Noticed Waze always gives a longer route to destination which is quite silly. I suggest Waze can roll out analysis suggestions on 1)the shortest possible route, 2) the quickest possible route & 3) Waze recommended route instead of the current 3 route suggestions that are very similar.
