have an alert when waze is directing you into a high crime area
have an audible alert or color code when waze is directing you into a high crime area. Often locals avoid those areas and they will therefore have less traffic. But not always a good idea to go into those areas especially at night.
266 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Wrong-Way One-Way Alert
Hello,
Request the implementation of an Alert Feature in the application that provides an immediate audio and visual warning on the map if the system detects the vehicle is traveling the wrong way on a One-Way Street.
This feature would significantly enhance driving safety and help prevent potential accidents.

Speedometer speeding threshold alert below speed limit
I currently have a blackbox installed in my car for insurance purposes. I would like to be able to set my speedometer alert BELOW the speed limit so I know I am approaching it and DONT GO OVER the limit. The options now are all ABOVE the limit.

Alert while not in navigation
It would be great that Waze can alert you even if you are not enter the route so if you just launch the app and start driving.
You won’t enter destination and selecting route if you’re driving to work every day but you still can get the ticket for speeding..3 votes -
Alert when there is a diversion from the most common route
When I'm on my daily route I usually turn off sound and switch to "Alert only" mode. That causes me to not notice if there is a diversion from my most common route. Adding and alert to notify me of that diversion would be amazing.

Pouvoir choisir la distance de la voix.
Je m'explique. De base elle indique à 1km, 200m etc. Environ 3 fois avant un virage.
Il nous faudrai un paramètre pour modifier la distance de la voix. Pouvoir lui dire d'indiquer avec plusieur option (type 200m, 400m, 800m, 1km etc.) cela évitera de la répétions de la voix et ainsi calmer les nerfs quand elle répète 300 fois la même chose. 👌🏻

Custom Speed Alert threshold
I wish there was a way to set my speed alert at seven or eight or nine mph over the limit not just 5 or 10

Alert Settings
Please add a user setting for full or reduced alerting on roads usually travelled. The current regime of forced reduced alerting is causing confusion, map queries to WAZE and mistrust that WAZE is reliable. Not receiving alerts (regardless of alert settings) about driving behaviour cameras on usually travelled roads, as currently occurs when alerts reduce, defeats the purpose of using the app.

Calculate the best route based on both shorter time and distance. Not just one of them.
I prefer the fastest way, but only when it is reasonable.
I can never trust the option automatically suggested for me and I always find myself checking the routes. In many cases I switch to the second option.
For example:
Option 1: 49 minutes, 58 Km
Option 2: 50 minutes, 47 Km
I would rather spend 2% more time than spend 21% more fuel...Most people would prefer spending another minute in this case. Why do we always have to bother going to the routes to find out.
The user can select his preference for either shortest or fastest way…

Lengthening alert time before left/right turns
When approaching a right or left turn, the application many times doesn't give enough time to respond.
I assume this might be partly because of inaccuracies in the car location, but I think the basic problem is not recognizing it takes time to move from lane to lane, especially in crowded roads.
In my opinion you should lengthen the time for the final alert to at least 6-8 seconds before the turn.
I must emphasize that this time should be the time of the end of the alert, and not the beginning of it!8 votes -
option alert
we would like an option to deactivate only the on-screen alerts and leave only the audible alerts, currently you can only deactivate both but then you no longer receive the alert alerts

traffic alert in highway
as a Waze user, I'd like to receive a voice traffic alert when traveling on a highway (at highway speeds) and the map shows traffic on the route. Also, I'd like to have the configuration option to enable or disable it.

Please Bring Back ETA Box when there is an alert open
It has been confirmed that it is a WAD:
"ETA should be shown after alerter will be closed."
Please bring back the ETA Box for Carplay when a map alert opens.
ETA Box should never be hidden.

Indicator Alert
I would like to be informed through voice when i need to put the indicators while driving. I am thinking it would be exactly middle between the first alert and the final alert for an exit / when making left/right turn from the main/sub roads. Off course i understand this indicator alert needs to be made considering many factors.
I believe it will help for safe driving in both ways 1) for the driver to put at the right time the indicators making a switch 2) Also to help the car behind to rightly judge about the car in front.

Incorporate a simple view. With speed, distance to next turn and direction of next turn.
When driving at night, all I need to know is my speed, distance to the next turn and direction to turn.
(ETA would of course be nice to see with smaller text.)
I use Hudway Trip for that, but I really prefer WAZE.4 votes -
next service station - distance/time
On a long drive it'd be handy to be able to see:-
"Service station 1 - 3miles/5mins"
"Service station 2 - 45miles/38minutes"12 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!
