    As you may know, Waze is already supported on Android Auto. Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

  3. Semi-permanent drive location sharing

    Allow for multiple options when sharing drive location. Currently friends I want to share with keep getting "request cancelled". We are driving across the country and don't want to have to keep resending new links. I would like to have one I can use over and over with options to stop sharing or refresh to a new link when you want to change who has access or something the like. I think having time limits may be good too. Share my location via this link for 1, 2,...24, 48 hrs (as long as waze is open and sharing is on).

  4. Rapid battery drain and sudden shutdown after iOS 10.x updates. Removing Waze fixes the issue.

    After the rollout of iOS 10x my iPhone started crashing once the battery discharged to 30% ~ 40%. After much experimentation, I found that removing Waze fixes the problem. I've been using Waze for years and have recommended it to friends. However I cannot accept the rapid discharge & sudden shutdowns.

  5. Multiple waypoints

    When travelling to a destination Anna need to be there by a certain time, it would be useful when planning your trip if you could identify the time you must leave and know the time you should arrive at each waypoint. I’d picking up friends from multiple locations, you could tell each one what time to be waiting is multiple waypoints are allowed. Currently, I have to work that out manually.

  7. Contacts & Location Names/Labels

    Instead of only finding “Facebook friends” add an option to “add friends” that are in your contacts (associated phone number(s)).

    Like “Maps” on apple/iOS, we should be able to add places like “school” or “[insert name]’s house” even maybe “closest pizza restaurants”. Just thinking out loud I guess 🤦🏻‍♀️

  8. Screen size

    Hi,
    I have an LG tablet. When it is vertical the speedometer is covered by the friends page link. If the speedometer could be moved to the left sided of the screen it would be more visible.

  9. Fix the bug that checks me into foursquare. Sometimes my Facebook friends show up & most of the time it wants me to spread the word.

    Give foursquare it's own button again. It was much easier to check in to locations without having to go through Facebook.

  10. Both Android and IPhone users on the same map

    While driving with a friend who had an iPhone5 (I have a Samsung S3), we noticed that our maps were not showing the same wazers or reports. Displaying both will give more accurate reports and be more fun! I want to see all reports and friends, not just those on Android!

  13. "Friend Driving" Notification Should Be Adjustable Based On Distance

    I don't need Waze to tell me that my friends in New York City or Miami are driving when I am in Toronto, Canada (unless, I guess, if they have set a route to come to Toronto). Waze should allow us to specify how far away a friend can be that it will notify us of the fact that they're driving.

  14. Be able to block users from adding me as a friend

    I have a stalker x-girlfriend, who continually pops up as a "friend" request, despite multiple police cases. Having the ability to block additional requests would make the application safer.

  15. Family account

    Until recently my wife and I used the same waze account. This was useful so we could share addresses of friends and family. Unfortunately waze does not allow us to be logged in at the same time.
    I'm hoping waze can re-enable the capability to use an account on two devices simultaneously. alternatively introduce an export/import capability to the account so I can create a new account and just import my favorites my address and preferences

  17. Aliases for waze

    Simple but extremely useful. I think that you should add Aliases option. For example, if I want to travel to my friend Michael, I'll write "Michael" in the search bar or say "Michael" to the voice search and my friends house will be the first option.

  19. Waze's own chat

    I was picking up my little brother yesterday and in the meanwhile i noticed that if i didnt have to switch between whatsapp and waze in order to chat with people not interested in waze, it would be even cooler!

    I mean. I may log in so i could contact "a friend" that i know is connected to waze for example, just to chat. The facebook friends list is awful, because .. what? 30% of your list uses waze? and when they wanna chat with you, they dont think of the waze-3.5-facebook chat a a good system, so i have…
