UK / Android camera notices need fixing.
UK camera call outs have gone to pot.
Static speed camera's are not 'Speed Trap's - a copper hiding behind a bush is a speed trap.
Used to get "speed camera reported ahead"; now a really brusque "SPEED TRAP ahead".
Average Speed Cameras are not true Speed Cameras and do not need calling out every 3 lamp posts.Can we also have the "Speed reduced ahead" warning back - really useful for the 70-40 mph drops.

Average speed camera in IRAN
Hello waze
Recently in IRAN roads, many average speed traps are installed.
As you kbow these cameras catch not only the momentum speed but also catch the average speed between 2 cameras and in the whole road.
As you know they use SPECS (SPEed Check Services) system that use number plate recognition to measure the time taken between two fixed points to monitor a driver's average speed.
We, your greatfull application users in IRAN,
ask for activating average speed alarm in map and also in editor erea so the editors can edit and adjust it.Keep drive safely…
20 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already takes license plate restrictions into account, in many parts of the world. To enable this feature, add your license plate details under Settings > Car details > License plate.

Add fix camera on the app
These days, there are many fixed speed cameras that suddenly appeared in Hungary.
There are mobile cameras and police registrations on the screen, but there are no fixed speed cameras. It would be nice if you could add it. Thank you.2 votes -

A camera in a public transport lane
In Israel there are lanes designated only for public transportation, but a vehicle with 3+ or 2+ passengers is allowed to travel in the lane according to the signage.
They recently installed cameras that automatically count the number of passengers in the vehicle, and I did not find an option to notify the location of this camera.
Please add the option to notify you of the location of the camera to inform the other passengers.
Thanks for everything and have a nice day.2 votes -
Speed monitoring for verbal alerting on fixed camera
There is no verbal alerting for fixed camera. I also noticed that Waze checks the speed of my car about 250 meters before the fixed camera. Afterwards, there is no longer a monitoring of the speed (during the last 250 meters before the camera). Therefore, if the driver increases the speed by lack of attention i.e. because he missed the message displayed on the Carplay screen, he becomes exposed (it was my case …). Would it be possible to develop the following improvement (as being an option in the configuration).

Mute navigation during phone call.
When making or taking phone calls using bluetooth, waze navigation prompts often interrupt me. The person on the other end of the line can't hear the prompt, but it means either I miss what they're saying, or my train of thought is interrupted mid-sentence.
It would be useful for the client to auto-mute during a phone call.
2,370 votesThank you for this suggestion. As you may already know, Waze supports the option to mute during calls. To set that, go to Settings > Voice & sound and toggle Mute during calls.

Speed Camera Audio Alerts should be User not Community Choice
It seems there is a lack of clarity regarding Speed Camera Audio Alerts and how they are triggered.
From what I can tell, audio alerts for speed cameras are a "community" choice, meaning that an audio alert will only be played given a number of conditions:
Depending on where you live - Your "community" decides what the threshold should be, that is if you are currently travelling at the speed limit or below, some communities will trigger the audio alert. Some communities require you to be travelling over the speed limit before the audio alert it triggered.Also apparently…

Using the smartphone's front camera for alert about driver's tiredness
In Android there is a feature named "smart stay" which allows the smartphone to recognize, using the front camera, if the user is watching the screen (in order to turn off the screen when not in use) - see
http://www.androidcentral.com/how-use-smart-stay-galaxy-s3I wonder whether it would be possible to create a similar function in Waze, that would recognize (by visually recognizing when the eyes close for longer than a fraction of second) and alert if the driver falls asleep. If this is possible (even partially), it can save lives.

satellite errorI "lern" roads by using front camera
Hi - so my idea is about dealing trouble with satellite error. I think that a good solution will be to "lern" roads by using front camera that in times (like this days in israel) that there is no single "waze" will continue working based on recognizing place from front camera and placed the location on the map based on data that our system got by learning the view from previous drivers.

Camera Ratings
Add an option to rate the availability of the fixed speed cameras. Sometimes the fixed speed cameras are removed but since there is no one to update them then it always show up in the map. My idea is to add a button THERE for those cameras that are already there and NOT THERE button. When the NOT THERE ratings exceeds THERE ratings so the editors know that they have to remove them. This can also be shown while driving and let the drivers know the truthfulness of the cameras.

Red light & speed camera warnings do not go away.
Recently, red light and speed camera warnings do not go away unless I close and restart the app. These warnings cover destination time and prevent access to other menus.

Question on red light camera alerts
I regularly travel through an intersection in the suburb of Marangaroo WA 6964 on Marangaroo drive, Mirrabooka Avenue that has a red light camera. When travelling east on Marangaroo drive there is an audible "red light camera ahead" from waze but when approaching the intersection from any other direction there is no warning. Why is that? Fixed speed cameras also sometimes have an audible alert and sometimes not. Is there a way that I can turn this to an always audible alert for all known cameras? Please respond to Semung@gmail.com.

Add intelligence to traffic jam detection
Often users parked will cause a false traffic jam to be reported, yet when stuck in traffic it is usual to be crawling or moving occasionally.
When Waze detects traffic conditions and pops up the question of whether you are in traffic please change the default response dependant on whether the vehicle has been moving or not. If it has been totally stationary please set default response to 'No' as in a total traffic jam the driver will most likely spot the dialogue, only use 'Yes' as the default action when there has been some movement which is much more…
