Hello Waze friends.
Hello Waze friends. My name is Oscar Martínez from Costa Rica, I am a waze user and I love it.
I want to share with you an idea, waze is very useful because it "knows" the best way to reach our destination. But sometimes the app gives us a map using a route unknown to us regardless of the type of vehicle we are using at the time.
One possibility for improvement may be to first ask ourselves what type of car we have and thus avoid difficult routes for our cars. For example, a very bumpy road with…1 vote -
Add group option for friends traveling together
It would be nice if, when you're traveling with friends—like on a group trip—you could see your friend on the map so you can see where each other is.

I drive an old car that can't exceed 110km/h
I drive an old car that can't exceed 110km/h, since the ETA is necessarily calculated with speed max of each roads, with my car on a highway (130km/h) the ETA is wrong, would it be possible to set a maximum speed for my vehicle ?

Plan a drive screen should have a 'switch direction' option
Sometimes the time I want to leave to a place in the morning will depend on the estimated traffic for when I return... It will be much easier to plan if you don't have to start a new drive plan for the opposite direction.

After a turn, it'd be nice if the distance before the next turn is said. something like "turn right and go straight for 5 miles"

Display time to leave in plan a drive
Dynamic time to leave and length of travel is more important than just seeing the arrival time on a planned drive. Travel times vary so these information are vital.

Allow Users (or their friends/family) To Be the GPS Voice
As most users know, there are special sponsored voices you can use for your GPS voice. Kevin Hart did it when Ride Along was coming out. Ed Helms is currently on it for Vacation.
Wouldn't it be great if their was a part of the app where Waze would give the user prompts and they could record themselves, or a friend, or family member saying them. (i.e. "In point 2 miles turn left." "Make a U-turn at the next light" ETC.)
Users could have their best friend tell them directions, or their grandpa, whoever they want. And if they also…

Change the name of follow my drive menu category
When I want to share my drive, I have to go to menu - Send - Share my drive.
The menu category should be called "share drive" or something other than "send". Most people see it and say "send... send what?", and don't get it. A more descriptive name on that menu would help.

I really wish bookmarks were easier. Like, creating folders. I drive 5 hours a day, work 4. The places I visit are frequent, but there's so many of them. I would love it if there can be folders created so I just tap on that folder for say, Northeast PA sites, or Eastern PA sites, etc.

Driving to catch a flight
Imagine you are off on holiday. Perhaps hiring a car to drive to your destination after catching a flight. You could put your ultimate destination in to Waze and the airport / flight you are going to take.
Waze could keep you up to date on your departure while you're driving to the airport. (and advise on a departure time from your origin). It can update your friends of your progress.
It could keep your ETA up to date with your friends by cross-referencing the flight information and expected arrival time. (It could probably show your approx location based on…

Plan a drive
I’d love to see more flexibility in the “Plan a Drive” feature. My work schedule rotates weekly — one week I work days, the next I work nights — and this type of schedule is common for shift workers.
Currently, I have to manually adjust my planned drives each daily. It would be really helpful if Waze could support recurring drives with alternating times, for example:
• Week 1: Leave for work at 6:30 AM
• Week 2: Leave for work at 6:30 PM
• Then repeat weeklyHaving an option for rotating weekly schedules or a…

Hi, the "DON'T TYPE AND DRIVE " warning message is not useful for the taxi drivers. Because usually we adjust the destination during drive
As taxi driver we need to adjust the destination during driving.
Now the android app denied the typing during driving. We get a warning message:
"DON'T TYPE AND DRIVE "PLEASE ALOW THE TYPING WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING.

Please modify the app

Move control button to right hand side on right hand drive vehicle vehicles in Australia
Randomly sometimes the reporting buttons come up on my right hand side of screen close to my steering wheel on right hand drive car in Australia but doesn’t stay there. It usually opens up on the left-hand side which is a bit far to reach across the car to work anything can this be made? So it stays on the right hand side of the screen for a right hand drive car in Australia.
