Please bring meditation voice back
So I tend to be a bit on the anxious side and when ppl cut me off, almost side swipe me or put the fear of any sort into me it pushes me to the aggressive side and so when I found this app and heard the voice with the meditation guy at first I thought it was silly then when I used it a little bit it actually helped relax me a whole bunch! I tried the headspace and it is not the same! Please bring that one back! There is so much anger on the road why take…

Waze 'dead corner' addition
Dear Waze,
I would like to propose an extra feat in Waze that would eliminate dead corner accidents involving Waze software and current available technology. Please contact me if you'd like to hear about it. (no, i'm just a regular guy/dad who came up with a feasable idea and has no clue how to go about it but just thought that this would be a great addition to my favourite road app 😅)

Toll Roads - Variable Toll Avoidance
Summary: An additional check box in navigation in settings, that turns off variable tolls only leaving the Tolls that don't change prices.
I'm surrounded by Toll roads in DFW, but they have these awful Toll roads that change to be like 20$ on Friday's after work. basically taking advantage of busy times to squeeze money out of us. I don't mind using the toll roads that I know the price of, the ones' with fixed pricing. But these drive me up a wall, so I usually end up setting it to show tolls and then if I see the toll…

Reporting issues
After recent update, I can no longer update map while driving ( construction, road hazard, police, etc.) nor can I select a destination from existing items, resecrnts, saved, etc. I have not tried to add a stop recently while moving since. I can add a destination while stopped. When I try to update I can only get it to sort of work by clicking quick and multiple times, which causes a safety pause for like 15 seconds or so and then it moves forward, but since many of these reporting items require multiple clicks to fully select, this takes too…

Waze and EZPass rewards!
I get frequent emails from EZPass that have my statements for the amount of money that has been charged to my card for passing through tolls.
I drive through two tolls each day, and these rack up quite quickly, and can be a little bit of a burden on the wallet.
What I thought would be a great idea is if Waze and EZPass connected somehow and offered some sort of reward where if you go through a certain number of tolls while using the Waze app, you get a free toll paid for by them.
Even just one of…

Show slightly more accurate directions.
Sometimes on busy crossroads, especially in the Netherlands, for example, the navigation is a bit lacking. There are two factors here:
1) It doesn't show follow up instructions on screen whenever there is a turn you have to take right away after another turn. In NL it is very common on busy intersections to sort 5 meters after turning into a proper lane, google maps shows this perfectly, but in Waze it doesn't show at all. This causes messy driving sometimes.
2) The arrows on screen telling you which lane to take is in these situations also not always correct.…

Suggestion for improvements to the charging station search on Waze
Dear Sir/Madam,
With the proliferation of electric vehicles, it is crucial to optimize the charging station search on Waze to make it a recommended reference. Below, I propose specific improvements to enhance this feature.AA CarPlay / Displaying power, not speed status
Currently, on Android Auto, I notice that Waze displays vague indications ("Fast", "Medium", "Very Fast") rather than the power in kW. I would like the exact power to be indicated to better inform users.App / Displaying availability on the map
This feature, which was previously available, has disappeared. I find that displaying the number of free connectors…

Multiple voices
You should be able to pick the voices you like, and then put them on shuffle so you can have your favourite voices without having to change the voice manually each time.

To be able to see favorites (gas stations, businesses) enroute to a destination.
You're on a trip and you'd like to stop for coffee or gas at a favourite company on the way to a destination but you don't want to see locations behind you or out of the way.

On Android - Have a widget feature so there is a "Home" button on your home screen. So with one touch - Waze is set to take you home

Route mapping/sharing social
I believe having some sort of route mapping option akin to services like mapmyrun and Strava would be a great way to introduce a more social aspect for those of us who like driving for the sake of the drive or an adventure.
Myself and many of my friends enjoy just going on random drives where we just go where the wind takes us and see sights with no particular destinations in mind. However mapping those routes and destinations for future reference is challenging and honestly time consuming.
A feature like this as I could currently see it would allow…

Motorcycle based map and speed display scale and legibility.
I have 5" carplay units on both of my motorcycles. (no this is not a display size issue). My preferred map software in carplay, is Waze, as I want the most crowdsourced information such as cops, traffic, construction, etc. My only problem on the motorcycle with carplay/Waze display is that the map is way too FINE and small print, the speed is too small, and red/black which are fairly impossible to read as they're both dark colors.
My ask, and idea, and suggestion... either basically control over the display SIZE to make the fonts and boldness of the roads and…

Indicator Panel with Arrows and Traffic Directions and Street Names
Hi guys, I have a suggestion for you developers,
Could you make as a Show and Hide Option the "Indicator Panel with Arrows and Traffic Directions and Street Names" which is black in color,
And it's always there on the top left and it's huge and it covers a lot of the nav screen, top left, Could you make it like some sort of show and hide option.
This Information-Indicative Panel is rarely used and is not suitable to be always present on the display especially during long distances.

Save preferred routes
I’d love the ability to save my preferred route to frequently visited destinations (such as work, home, or family). Waze often suggests the fastest route, but sometimes I prefer a slightly longer route because it’s easier to drive, has fewer traffic lights, avoids difficult junctions, or is simply more familiar.
It would be great to have a “Preferred Route” option where users can save one or more favourite routes for a destination.

Amélioration du paramètre “Éviter les péages”
Bonjour,
Je souhaite vous soumettre une problématique que je rencontre régulièrement lors de l’utilisation de Waze, notamment à proximité des sections à péage.
Waze me redirige presque systématiquement vers une portion à péage pour gagner 1 ou 2 minutes, alors que ce gain de temps n’est pas toujours utile ni souhaité.
Lors de la programmation du trajet, il est possible de choisir un itinéraire sans péage ou un itinéraire plus touristique lorsque l’on a le temps, ce qui est très appréciable.
La reconfiguration du trajet en temps réel en fonction du trafic est une fonctionnalité formidable, voir géniale, qu’il est…2 votes -
Useless information
Dear on duty!
I drive a lot to work and back. Hours each day. Mostly, I use the app to foresee road blocks so I could re-route through back roads that even Waze doesn't know about.
But I get a lot of useless notifications like "left lane blocked" or "fog". These notifications are pointing out the obvious. You wasted time programming, I wasted time reading it. This morning the app told me "bad weather"! This flipped my lid off. Like what? I'll explain.
How do you measure good or bad? Bad for who? It's latitude 59, it's December. I'd say…1 vote -
Radio/TV station badges
As a radio station owner/presenter, I remember back in 2018 when I last had my station running, looking forward to having my station as part of a wazers badge.
When wazers used to be able to choose the badge to wear on the map of their favourite station and wear it across the map with pride.
Could you bring this back? The old W on Air used to be an amazing feature too if you could do something like that also?

Screen Alerts South London Restrictions
Please, please provide Camera alerts for as short as one hour road entry restrictions eg in rush hour times in London. Results in PCN fines of £65. These experimental road layout changes are frequently changing (over the last 3-4 years) and the simple “Speed camera” type alerts which pop up on the screen would be really really useful! Waze plans the route well to avoid I believe, but we are sometimes tempted to ignore, thinking we know better!
As experienced London drivers know, we have favourite routes developed over a lifetime, so these time-based one or two hour restrictions are…1 vote -

by recc of Waze Customer Support, here's what I wrote to Ralph:
Hi Ralph …
....
I do have a few somethings else ….
1)I need the directions to reference something I see out the window. I don’t care if the locals call it “Webster-Basin-Springs RD” …. what’s on the road sign is State 333 off of US 60 South west of Irvington, **. You’ll need google maps/apple maps to find this reference. Waze only shows the name which cannot be seen on the road.
Waze CONSTANTLY uses a reference which is NOT on the roadway signs.
2) Nuther complaint:…
