Configurable Speedometer & Speed Limit location
Before I go ahead and suggest improvements, Waze is a great navigation app with excellent features. I love it! Great work, Waze team; keep it up!! 👏
I suggest introducing a feature where Waze app users can configure the location of the speedometer and speed limit information through the Waze app preferences to be positioned in one of four display corners. I have noticed reports of inconsistent placement across different platforms; some Waze apps display this information on the left, while others display it on the right. To set the context, the suggestion is based on using the Waze iOS app version 4.92, where the speedometer and speed information are in a fixed position in the lower left corner (when in landscape mode/when the mobile phone is tilted horizontally).
Before proceeding, we must always rely on the car's speedometer and the actual road signs! This suggestion is to improve the current in-app experience for Waze users who find that the speedometer and speed limit information are farther away from the steering wheel.
The lack of regulations in this field introduces an overlooked driving hazard. When the speedometer and speed limit information are located in a fixed position further away from the steering wheel, it introduces a driving hazard as the driver has to spend more time navigating the information on the Waze app navigation screen. I am confident that this is an overlooked feature because most Waze users are drivers in countries that drive on the right side of the road; thus, the steering wheel is located on the left side, which is closer to the speedometer on the Waze app navigation screen.
The problem arises when the speedometer and speed limit information are displayed on the left side of the Waze app navigation screen, while the steering wheel is located on the right side. This placement of the speedometer and speed limit information forces the driver to spend more time navigating the information. I would expect more complaints if the speedometer and speed limit information were moved to the bottom right corner and could not be changed.Please, Waze team, let us make driving safer by introducing this overlooked yet crucial feature to improve the Waze navigation app experience. Thank you!

Volume
Allow adjusting volume independent of WAZE announcements. Right now volume of WAZE announcements can only be adjusted ONLY while announcements are being made, which is extremely dangerous to do while driving.

Tagging my saved places in a map view
Tagging my saved places in a map view in addition to the currently existing list view:
✓ The reserved places are shown in a growing list.
✓ Currently the list is sorted alphabetically and I am obliged to remember what the place is called on the map or what name I gave it.
✓ Suggests giving the option to display them also in map view and to choose.
from her✓ This will streamline finding the saved place you are looking for.
✓ Good luck

Since Brazil has a lot of potholes, I think there should be a shortcut for potholes on the screen for the drivers to be able to report

iPhone 14 and dynamic island

Add Shortcut to "Vehicle Stopped On Side of Road"
I found a post from 2016 asking for this and it still hasn't been implemented!
There should be a shortcut on the navigation screen to send a "Vehicle Stopped on Shoulder" report with a single click.
This is, by far, the most common type of report and it currently requires FIVE button presses - all of them while looking down at the screen. A user-configurable single-click report button would be even better, but a "Vehicle Stopped On Shoulder" button would be a massive improvement to the current 5-clicks.
This has been suggested many, many times over the past many years, but not implemented. Why?

Vehicle selection box
It takes a lot until the vehicle selection button became available for the user once you launch the app. In my case, I decide daily when to use my motorcycle or car and it's annoying to wait the pop ups notification to disappear until the vehicle selection button is ready

Add voice search while driving.
I want to be able to voice search for an address or a place while I'm driving. It is rather a inconvenience to have to put my vehicle in park in order to search where I want to go. Unless I'm doing it wrong.

Send lane INTERDICTION alert through the vehicle's multimedia.
Hello, I believe that the following idea is an improvement and it is not a possible bug solution, because the functionality would have been tested before the release of the version.
When trying to send a lane interdiction alert through the vehicle's multimedia, the option does not appear, just using the cell phone without mirroring, I am using a cell phone with an IOS operating system, but the same behavior is seen with cell phones with an Android operating system.
Particularly, I don't walk with my cell phone in hand while driving, nor would I like to stop the vehicle to be able to disconnect the cell phone mirroring with the vehicle's multimedia to be launching a lane INTERDICTION alert. This improvement would be very welcome.
I'm a Waze editor and I got a bug response about this from a user, but I believe it's something that was unplanned and would be considered an improvement.

Bottom Bar.
The bar at the bottom that has search and carpool need to have a button to turn it off. It is not needed while driving and when on my motorcycle and my phone is turned on its side the bar takes up over half my screen making it impossible to see the map.

kate
Please, please, please, someone at Waze sort out the English UK Kate voice issue. Forget the new version, sounds clunky,synthetic and unnatural, just re-instate as before. It's downright distracting now while driving, will loook for an alternative app if this continues.

Outdoor Temp on the Waze main screen display.
I believe it would be great if the app could incorporate showing the current location outdoor temperature on the map screen to see while traveling. Maybe a small circle with the temperature in it on the top left or right.

Show street currently being driven on
Where it currently prompts for Car Type or Vehicle Info in a blue oval near the bottom center, instead show which street is currently being driven on. The other prompts don't seem important enough to be in that prime space all the time. Sometimes when driving by sense of direction it can be easy to not know which road you're on and it never shows on the map itself.
