New UI/UX is needed to make the app less convoluted.
The iPhone app needs to be redesigned to fit the modern feel of the overall iOS design to have some symmetry.

בעיה במפה
שמתי לב לכך שהמערכת לא מזהה מעברים תחתיים בכביש, כדוגמה: בצומת כפר שמריהו, בצומת קפלן מנחם בגן ליד עזריאלי, ובמנהרת אלוף שדה. המערכת שולחת אותי לעבור את הצומת דרך הרמזורים מלמעלה ולא שולחת אותי לעבור במעבר התחתי. התוצאה הארכת זמן הנהיגה. כדאי לעדכן את המערכת.

Dear waze, could you send notifications regarding accidents or traffic near you ?
Waze tells us every time there is an accident or traffic and shows us the best route to avoid it. But most of the times its too late and we only get to see this when we turn the apllication on and get in our cars. It would be really helpful if you could add a feature where it warns you beforehand by sending a notification, this way you know before leaving home in the morning or whenever you're going somewhere that you need to leave before your usual time so you're not late. Please consider this. Thank you wazers

It would be really helpful if while using the Waze app, it would display the names of the neighborhoods you are driving through.
It would be very helpful if the map on Waze showed the names of the neighborhoods you are driving through, especially in a large city like Chicago.

Consider also the streets the driver needs to cross and their traffic
For example, the direction is "go straight ahead". The street you may have to cross may have three lanes in each direction. Eventually, considering this option if the intersection has lights. Whether the lights function or not, it is not your fault :)

Show upcoming canteens on the road you're moving
An added feature, which I think could be useful, would be the ability to show the nearest canteen or burger van on the road we're moving. If the community could be allowed to add the info it would slowly populate and could have it on the screen as a reminder to grab something to eat.

In Chicago, the Kennedy reversible lanes should be updated in real time using www.kennedyexpresslanes.com data
Routing would be better if www.kennedyexpresslanes.com data were checked every few minutes.

Hello team Waze !
Hello team Waze !
My naame is Yuri Shargaev, I live in Netanya, Israel.
Knowing all the reasons why my letter to you can remain unanswered,
I yet approach you with an offer. The thing is, that I have an Idea,
but what I do not have is time nor resources to realize this idea for it is a big and complex project, especially for one person.
(And I do not have any experince in this field of work. But as far as I know, this said idea deserves very close attention and I am looking for ways to realize it.)This said idea is a "collection of existing technologies which have never been collected in this way, or any similiar way."
Besides technological point of view, said idea is based on psycological and sociological behavior patterns of the avarage "internet consumer", or in other words - "the avarage joe".
What the idea does, basically is, it makes commecials and marketing over the internet a lot simpler, a lot more effective and most importantly - reliable to the consumer.
In the right hands, this idea will be a very strong competitor to Facebook and will have many strong points that Facebook does not have.You, team waze, have all it takes to make this real.
For more information, questions or anything I can be of help, please write to my e-mail: Shargaev@gmail.com
Kindest regards,
Yuri Shargaev.

הגבלת אזור
מתן אפשרות למשתמש לשרטט "אזור הגבלה".
כיום ניתן להימנע משטחי הרשות, מכבישי אגרה, וכיוצא בזה.
אבל מה עם כביש מסוים שאני לא רוצה שאשלח לשם.
כפר מסויים שאני לא רוצה למצוא את עצמי שם.
אזור כלשהו שאני רוצה להגביל.
שרטוט:
המשתמש משרטט אזור על ידי שרטוט קו קטן. הגבלת כביש.המשתמש משרטט "גבול" סביב לאזור מסוים, הניווט לא ישלח אותי דרך שם.

see comments below.
enlarge font on street names. give all street names, ALWAYS give name of street you are currently on. when making a turn, have a quick illustration as slow illustrations lead to problems especially when the street names in that area are not given.

Navigation "Training" mode.
I use it just about every day for going to work on the 405 in Los Angeles and back home. I would like it to indicate how much time the suggested route is saving versus the regular drive I would normally take. I think you would have to add a "training" mode. This way I can decide if it really is worth it to take the suggested route.

Please fix bug and improve the App.
Dear Sirs,
I am a user of "Waze" application more than 2 years ago and very satisfied of it.. and that's why I wrote a 5 star feedback to "Google Play"..
Also I'm ranked in 29th position of my Country (Greece) with name "AnastasiosII"..
Last 2 weeks the Application appears a bug and can't connect to device's GPS (!!).. so it uses network's approximately position..
If you're wondering if my phone's GPS works properly the answer is YES and it's tested on "Google Navigator".. and "Sygic" normally..
Appreciating all your great work I would like make you some suggestions that I think it will improve further the "Waze"..
1. There's no option to correct or to remove a wrong notification.. Sometimes a situation on the road can change instantly.. so a notification on map can be wrong or useless..
So I think it should be very effective for the users can edit at anytime (probably after 2 different edits or from high ranked users)..
2. When you Pave a new road or path.. it's nessesary to be online in network otherwise it doesn't work.. but in sometimes it's impossible.. Mobile Networks are not stabile and they have not coverage everywhere..
I think any correction can be stored mainly on the phone and then it can uploaded when network it's available..
and
3. In older versions the "Traffic notification" (and others) had an option for the otherside of the road the problem was.. but in last versions you have removed.. so now we can't warn the other side users..
I wish my notifications will help you improve your products and all the Community..
For any further information or comment please do not hesitate write me back..
Kind Regards

Split the long road into segments
There is only one option so far to see if there is a jam. The whole segment of the road between the junctions is marked as one piece.
It is probably fine with very short roads and many junctions, but when the road is long and there is only a relatively small problem - Waze is misleading.
Besides if I see the last metres before the junction to be red, I understand that there is a traffic light. When the whole street is red - there is a jam.
There are too many long roads which have a problem in the middle (say, a roadwork) causing local problems. There is no need to pain the whole segment red.

Faster nightmode detection
I have an Android car stereo with Waze.
When I turn on ignition, Android boots up and Waze starts.It seems that Waze needs GPS as well as network access to detect night mode. As after bootup, GPS and network needs a while (1 or 2 minutes), Waze starts in day mode even in the night.
Please, do not addict night mode detection to GPS and network, and look at the local clock. Possibly use last known position and the current time.
With Waze's full brightness of day mode it dazzles - driving so is really dangerous.

Opposing carriageway incident
Used to be able to report incident on he opposing carriageway. This feature was lost on an update some time ago but should be introduced, it would update the traffic info database & assist those travelling on that route by giving early notice & possible diversions.
