Carplay speed limit
Hello, in the UK version of Waze on Apple Car Play, the speed limit is hidden by the direction box. Can you please put the speed limit on the top left of the screen and not on the right (as there is the direction box already).
6 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Time to start driving to work
I would like to receive a notification every morning of the time I need to start my drive to work (depending on the traffic conditions and my location, of course). I know I can set it manually every day or set an "event" in my calendar that Waze will sync with, but it seems so basic and simple that I feel this should be a part of the app. With setting like days of the week when you go to work, time when you need to be there, respect state holidays toggle, etc.

Stop hiding the direction when displaying an alert
When displaying an alert, it's very inconvenient and dangerous to suddenly have the directions hidden by the notification especially on the interchange.
I randomly chick on not there anymore just to choose the right. At that moment I need clear instructions and both hands on the wheels !2 votes -

police
Please reinstate the "Police on Other Side" feature. Reporting speed traps is the most useful reason to report police, and traffic moving in opposite direction will always be better suited to identify and report.

"Change orientation” button. Notifies waze that the orientation of the car is the opposite than what waze thinks
Effective when coming out of a parking spot for two reasons: 1. To correct waze when noticing it is wrong. 2. If one can come out of the parking spot to two different directions, the button allows checking which way will consume less time, and choosing the direction appropriately.
58 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Doesn’t direct you to the house number, only to start of street
Had the same problem again today drove to an address which the same street was on both sides of a cross road, Waze told me to turn left when I should have turned right as it was a high house number, pain in the backside as it has happened on multiple occassions, I am going back to google maps until this is introduced it really is such a simple thing but so important

I recently followed Waze direction to take a”right”.
I recently was following Waze directions to take a right that ran parallel to train tracks... I ended up on the tracks... luckily I was able to disengage w/o incident given the time of day and entry onto tracks w/ tire damage only... there are no signs or warnings on the road...night time and raining... I’ve been told this happens on frequent occasions w/these conditions... unsure if Waze can build in warning/ hazard alert near any rr crossing directions....apparently state and/ or rr not going to do anything

When the volume bar is dragged to zero, the navigation voice directions still lower the volume of my music. Please change this.
I use the navigation, visually, but not the voice. As I can not find a mute button, I have instead dragged the volume slider all the way to 0.
I then listen to music on my phone in the background through car speakers. Whenever there is a voice navigation queue, although the voice has no volume so I can't here it, waze still lowers the volume of my music for the duration of the direction, as such, my music seems to just lower the volume periodically which is rather annoying.

Add DUI check point report button
Add a DUI check point alert, report button that is seperate from police reports. This can be linked with online area reports plus waze drivers can report. But it would help if could say which direction on the street the checkpoint is set up on.

Automatic on/ off waze when connect to paired bluetooh adapter.
This is best way to have waze on when is needed in car.
Leave the car - waze goes off.

Wrong way driver alert
Wrong way driver alert. Alert wazers if they enter a freeway on ramp going in the wrong direction also alert other wazers with a loud audible alarm (much like the Amber alert alarm) that there is a wrong way driver approaching.

Filled shapes (like parking lot, landmarks, etc.): snap active point to original start point.
When editing a parking lot, or other "filled" shape, it would be nice to snap the active point with the original start point, as it would work in programs like Illustrator, Flash, Photoshop, etc.

One Lane Bridge Alerts
It would be great to have a warning when approaching a one lane bridge, given that it's an important time to slow down and be prepared to stop. By one lane bridge, I mean a bridge with one lane that is shared be the traffic going in either direction (https://www.nzta.govt.nz/roadcode/general-road-code/road-code/about-driving/giving-way/giving-way-on-one-lane-bridges/).
Generally one direction gets the right of way, so it would also be handy to have that included in the warning.
