Feature Suggestion: Truck & Travel Trailer Routing Mode
Hi Waze team! It would be incredibly helpful to add a dedicated routing option for trucks towing travel trailers. This feature could generate safe routes that account for:
- 🚫 Avoiding sharp or narrow right turns
- 🚧 Identifying height restrictions and bridge clearances
- 🛑 Bypassing roads with trailer or truck limitations
This would go a long way in improving safety and convenience for recreational drivers and towing vehicles. Thanks for considering!13 votes -

hi, when using your excellent app i was hoping instead of ' take the next turn off in 200 feet' to be read out in yards
instead of saying take your next left turn in 'X' amount of feet to be, take your next left turn in 'X' amount of yards if thats at all possible, thanks

Pause button
Other people have asked for a pause button. It's annoying and potentially dangerous to fiddle with the app while driving. One button would be helpful.

Differentiate alternative routes from each other by color
If you display alternative routes while actively navigating/driving, they will all be displayed in the same color. It would be helpful to display each route in a different color for easy differentiation.

Display more (limited) house numbers at destination
Short version: When approaching your destination display not only the pin for the address that you're arriving at, but also one, two or three addresses before and after the address. Example: navigating to 122 Main St would show up with the navigation pin, but also show a small number 114 and 118 before, and 126 and 130 after the pin.
When working for a delivery app like Door Dash, Uber Eats, Uber, Lyft, Instacart, Walmart Spark, Amazon Flex, Grub Hub, etcetera you're just trying to get to the location, drop the package, and move on to your next delivery. Often times it's very difficult to see any house numbers on the buildings themselves as much of this happens after dark and people for some reason don't like to turn on their porchlights (reddit is complete with complaints for this on any of the delivery subs). When using the built in GPS for whichever app you're talking about it will typically display not only the various house numbers as you get closer to the destination but also a polygon. I'm sure the polygon would be out of the question, but just having the house numbers displayed for a few before and after the destination would be immensely helpful. Imagine you're waiting for a delivery of food, there's your house and two others on your side of the road, and your driver gets to your house only to stammer for a few minutes not sure which house to deliver to.

Increase font in navigation screens
Small fonts on Android. It was better few version back. Increase font in Android doesn't help. Ask your devs to respect accessibility for major actions like voice alerts, Home/work recommendations , recent drives, etc.

Do not cancel driver reports for mis-taps
Suggestion: Do not dump Wazers completely out of the reporting process because of a mis-tap or error.
Problem solved: Prevents Wazers from having their attempts to help totally aborted due to mistakes, which is discouraging, frustrating, annoying, demoralizing, and may discourage Wazers from submitting future reports.
Discussion:
When a user opens the report feature on a mobile device, they are presented with a collection of icons to choose from. If, because they are driving and trying to pay attention to the road, they happen to miss the target and accidentally tap the space between icons, the report display cancels out. Now they have to restart the process, and by restarting, assuming they are still in motion, the report will now be in the wrong location. This also results in extending the time the driver is interacting with Waze instead of driving.
If a user has the report feature open and is not sure which category to choose from for a specific situation, they will try one of them. If it turns out the category they chose does not work (or if they tapped the wrong one by accident because they are driving or hit a bump or whatever), the natural intuitive action is the tap the “back” button so they can go back one step. However, as above, attempting to go back also completely cancels out the report process. So, as above, if they try again, they are spending even more time interacting with Waze than was necessary, and of course the report will also be in the wrong location.
FIX 1: While in the report flow, do not close the process if the user taps into blank space between icons. Just be patient and let them try again.
FIX 2: While in the report flow, do not close the process if the user taps their “back” button. Instead take them back to the previous screen so they can try to complete their intended action.
MAINTAIN: While in the report flow, if the user clear taps the map display, go ahead and close the process (this is current functionality).
Suggestion: Do not dump Wazers completely out of the reporting process because of a mis-tap or error.

Temporary Speed Limits for Road Works
I would like to suggest adding functionality to Waze that supports temporary speed limits on road segments affected by road works. This would work similarly to the current "Closures" feature in the Waze Map Editor (WME).
Reason for Request:
This summer, we have received numerous reports from drivers through the mobile app, indicating incorrect speed limits displayed on roads under construction. Currently, setting temporary speed limits and later restoring the original limits after the road works are completed is a time-consuming, double effort for us.A "Temporary Speed Limits for Road Works" feature would not only streamline the process of displaying accurate speed limits during road work but also allow us to retain the original speed limits without needing to manually restore them after the works are finished. This would improve efficiency and ensure accurate information is provided to drivers.
Proposed Workflow:
. In WME, introduce a "Road Works" option.
https://i.ibb.co/BjjGR0Z/wme-works.png
a. Users can select specific road segments affected by road works.
b. Set start date/time and end date/time like for Closures. Once marked as "Road Works," these segments will display a temporary speed limit icon in the Waze mobile app, reflecting the adjusted speed limit during the construction period.

Make UR emails replyable
Like right now there's a couple of reporters that reply to the emails instead of clicking on the links. Would it be possible to create a certain email wildcard that posts what they say in the email onto WME? I've seen this done with other businesses so I don't know why Waze can't do it. For the meantime at least add a banner at the top of the email body stating it's a no reply email and to use the links provided instead.
