Police camera ≠ police report
In some countries, it is not allowed to drive with an app giving the exact locations of police cameras (automatic speed control), waze intelligently gives the area where the police cameras are (very useful alert and the utilization of waze is allowed).
But to fight the concept of the "area" most of drivers post a police location each time they pass beside a police camera (I have observed it, a police camera in Paris France is reported every 15 min, sometime several times).
Consequence : waze gives the exact location of each police cameras everyday, every time.

Work
I’d like to request multiple work place favorites along with 2 Home favorites instead of only ONE Home option currently available. ‘Home’ or ‘Work’ is simply name. Users could call them anything they wish. But for easier navigation sake, to be able to save with more than just one HOME or one WORK, the obvious merits are flexible user experiences. By the way, does WAZE necessarily restrict users to only one Home and one Work? Is there more inconvenient or anything to lose if more homes and work places are possible? They could be your friends’ homes, siblings’, relatives’, etc…

My account was completely wiped out this morning. I use this EVERY DAY. My history gone. Miles gone. Favorites gone.
Give a notification and give an option to work on changes later, not as I am trying to get to work. Why was my account wiped out?

Being able to add more than 1 work place
I think it would be nice if we could add more than 1 work place. A lot of people have more than 1 job to stay afloat these days. You of course can add it to your favorites but I like the home & work coming up as default.

Better and easier directions for saving favorite destinations.
Your directions for saving favorite destinations are impossible to follow. Frustrating and useless. Please improve and simplify.

Feature Request Feedback
Many of the feature requests have many votes, or multiple postings for the same feature requests. It appears that people really do want some things very much. However, the feature request for some items seems to be un-monitored.
There are a number of issues, which would normally be easily resolved with some minor programming tweaks that never seem to be addressed, either in the responses, or the program revisions.
Example: Favorites sorting - the same general feature request has been posted multiple times with post dates going back to 2010.
It would be helpful to have some feedback to know…3 votes -
Save a route
I have a specific back roads route I like to use when travelling that I would like to save. I can't find this feature in Waze, but would like to assign it to a favorite and share with my family and friends.

Add a 2nd Work address
I have two (2) suggestions ......
1. add a 2nd work address. With so many Wazers working two jobs, being able to enter in a 2nd address makes commuting to one or the other or between the two, so much easier. No searching through "Favorites" to find the 2nd address and best route- Have the ability to confirm that it's the passenger wanting to add/alter a location, destination or search. Driving with a passenger down the freeway and having them perform a new search or to add an address still requires the driver to pull over and stop,…

Use my location and 100% real gas
(1) When adding a favorite or home or work, have a "use my location" feature just in case the address is not known.
(2) Add a checkmark where users can show other drivers gas station that have 100% real or no ethanol in their gas.6 votes -
Count Votes
How many votes are needed to encourage Waze to improve their app? As far as I can tell, as far back as 2016, people have been requesting and voting for favorites to be alphabetized and yet still nothing? At least a response would help to know if anyone at Waze has even looked into it.
1 voteGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Gas stations
The gas price section is a nice idea, but when I tried to enter prices from a location, I was not interested in choosing a favorite brand (I dislike all oil companies in general). More appropriate would be the fuel type: unleaded regular, diesel, non-oxigenated, whatever (my favorite). Maybe partnering with Gas Buddy would be a good idea.

Proximity routing for Home/Work
Many people use waze on a daily basis as a way to avoid traffic. We know how to get home or to work, and sometimes our work places have multiple entrances. These entrances don't always trigger waze that you have arrived, so even once I'm in the building, suddenly I hear waze trying to route me through the office hallways from my pocket.....
A new feature called "proximity routing" that the user can enable for their "home/work" locations would take care of this problem. Once the driver gets close, waze would indicate you have arrived and go into sleep mode.…

I'd like to be able to send a single set of directions to a friend or contact through Waze
Enhancement Request
New functionality requestAdd functionality to send a 'single set of directions' to another Waze user.
Sender and receiver would both have to be set be friends in Waze.
Receiver would have to set a checkbox at the individual contact level (phase 2) or for all contacts (phase 1).
The directions would be delivered into a delivery queue or directly exported to receiver's favorites list (consider visual queue to distinguish/identify the new favorite.1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Option to change order of search category buttons
I appreciate the category buttons when searching, but they are fixed in place. It would be nice to have the option to change the order of the preloaded search category buttons so I do not have to tap "more" to get to a specific category for search.
For example, I have no need to search for "groceries" but it appears in the first few category buttons. I frequently use the "gas" category search but I have to make additional taps and divert more of my attention to get to other categories via the "more" button.
Ideally, the search categories could…

Integration with AAIdrive
As the author of AAIdrive, an open-source app that adds some custom apps to the legacy BMW iDrive system, my users keep asking for integration with their favorite apps, and Waze is very popular indeed! Is there any possibility to integrate either the hazards list or perhaps a full Waze experience?

"Favorite" Hazard Button on Main Screen
ADD single-push hazard button on main screen that activates "Vehicle Stopped on Shoulder Ahead," which has to be the NO. 1 hazard all drivers face and encounter.
Pressing 5 buttons to alert others of a "Vehicle Stopped on Shoulder Ahead" is a hazard itself. Now, we click the "Alert" button, then we click the "Hazard" button, then we click the "Shoulder" button, then we click the "Vehicle Stopped" button, then we click the "Send" button.
On my bi-weekly 3-hour trips, I go through that routine 20 times per trip. Clicking 5 buttons for ANYTHING discourages people from using that thing.

Favoris / liste d'adresse
le point est.. les favoris !!
Je souhaite vraiment attirer votre attention sur cela... utilisant intensivement Waze tout les jours, je voudrais me permettre de vous faire la suggestion suivante..
la liste des favoris reste une liste de favoris.. mais pas une liste d'adresse usuelle.... ce qui à pour consequence qu'on y rajoute rapidement les/des adresses fréquemment utilisées ou un peu moins mais que l'on souhaite garder en mémoire, sans pour autant pouvoir mettre en évidence les adresses vraiment favorite, celle qu'on utilise très souvent...
d'où ma suggestion de laisser une liste d'adresse avec une partie vraiment favoris, en évidence,…
