Differentiate between toll roads and toll bridges
I drive solo in Seattle. I have three options into Seattle from the North: - I -405 (with a toll bridge - 525- across the lake) or 1-405 (with a non toll bridge - via 1-90) and then I-5 with no tolls at all.
Can we have an option for WAZ to differentiate between toll roads and toll bridges - this is because I can still drive the "regular" road on the 1-405 and then take the toll bridge (525) into Seattle, but I don't want WAZ to figure the time for the HOV/T lane...aaaaagh, does that make any sense?…

Police
Police alerts are helpful in many ways, the one thing that would help a bit more is if along with the alert there should be an indication of how much time has passed since the alert was posted. This feature is already available but only if you tap on an upcoming police alert icon in which you will see for example 10min ago on the top right corner, but it does not show in the alert that pops up as you drive....... Unless it is a construction site police are rarely in one spot for very long...... I feel that…

highway wrong direction car alert
it could be useful to add an alert to inform other wazers that a car is driving in wrong direction (very useful for the Highways). The alert will blink to any wazer smartphone display that is driving that way before the alert point.
This feature could permit alerted drivers to mantain the right lane till the end of the emergency.11 votes -
Waze to initiate pre-determined reply to texts when driving
I want waze to initiate a pre-determined text reply automatically when I am driving, note automatically, so it switches on and off according to when I am driving using Waze. I would set my reply to say: "I'm driving at the moment so please call me as I can't read your texts but can speak to you using bluetooth. This text has been sent to you by Waze navigation app."

Multi Carburant / Multi Station
Actuellement Waze propose de sélectionner notre carburant ainsi que notre station préféré. mais si l'on a 2 véhicule a carburant différent il est nécessaire de changer systématiquement alors que nous pourrions choisir plusieurs carburants. dans la même optique il serait interessant de pouvoirs choisir plusieurs pompiste (pour selectionner par exemple plusieurs grandes surface) car les pompistes indépendants vende bien plus cher c'est pour cela que j'aime bien l'options de waze quand je cherche de l'essence mais je ne peux pas selectionner par exemple auchan carrefour intermarché pour avoir un plus grand choix. soit j'en choisis qu'un seul soit je dois…

While driving today I couldn't report a accident. When I finally stop or parked I still can't report it bc I'm not on that road. Make it so I can still report something by touching the spot where the problem was.

Waze on my car screen
GM now allows Google maps and several other APPs to be projected on my car screen from either an iphone or an android phone. Would be a great addition if we could get the WAZE APP to come up. I would happily toss the google map.

police
After making a report of police, I noticed in my Inbox that it was labeled as "police speed trap." I don't think the app should make that assumption. I report police presence ONLY to promote officer safety. Sometimes large trucks block drivers' view and they may not be able to see there is an officer (or other emergency responder) at the side of the road.

unsafe streets
It would be very helpful to know if you are entering to a dangerous area meaning like a ghetto or some place where is dangerous to be driving at certain time or know that you can get assaulted by knowing this you can change route to a safer one.
Sometimes you get into streets that are very dangerous for saving some minutes on your route.
Being able to report dangerous areas would be great and safer for driving.
I know a lot of people talking about this on the city as an issue of waze.

Allow routing to avoid defined zones on map (bad neighborhoods, long term construction, etc)
Lots of people have suggested that Waze have an option to avoid "bad neighborhoods" or other areas for other reasons, but I understand that it would be very difficult for Waze to do that automatically. For a given city, you usually have to be a local resident to know that you should avoid a certain area in your daily commute.
So, give each user the option to define avoidance zones in our apps. That way, Waze is not responsible for making that determination, the individual users do it. It could be just a simple polygon drawing function, with a checkbox…

Bring back the report list on iOS!!
Please bring back the list of reports on iOS!!! I used to use that option all of the time, to decide which route I was going to take or see what I needed to watch out for, before I set out. Now I can only see what's going on when i set a route in the car to leave, which defeats my purpose of analyzing which way to go. I like to do this before i set out. Not the last second as I'm ready to drive. I use waze to travel long distances and I can't get a good…

Synchronize points and levels across all Waze servers
Perhaps most Wazers won't realize this until they go on vacation but points earned in another country may not be added to your profile when you return home. Say you live in the UK and you go on a road trip in the US. When you run Waze for the first time in the US you will have zero points, and you will be relegated back to a baby Wazer. And nothing you earn while on that trip will be added to your profile back in the UK. This is a real dis-incentive to participate in sharing information. Please find…

Configurable sound outputs in Android App
Currently, the Android App is working in an unsatisfying way:
In the Settings menu, under Sound, I've enabled the option to play sounds using the phone's speaker.
When I plug in my earphones in my phone (a Samsung Galaxy S6) I expect all sound to be diverted to the earphones, not being played in the public speaker.Waze does not behave like this. It plays the sound in the speaker regardless of the cable.
My request is to let the user configure, in detail, where the sound should go.
Output sound to:
[ ] Speaker/headphones
( ) Speaker OR headphones…11 votes
