Why not believe me 1st time I report road closed? Why send me a 2nd time the same way?
You guys really sucked today. Reported exact same road closure 4 days ago after being 20 mins late bc WAZE didn't know. Now today WAZE sends me same way again!!!!! You guys are jerks for not believing me 1st time. I told you it was RR XING construction project. Why not look it up after I report it 1st time so you know how long to leave closure in place??? I shouldn't have to deal w same closure I reported already to you a 2nd time.

No group search results come up for my group "Transporters". Why? Search results need to be fixed.
Fixing search results so people can find you. Also nickname should be used as creator. I have asked people to search for it and nothing. Also have a way to send invites other than through Facebook. Should be able to invite single users. Email has no link to my username. Why?

Fix Nav/Add a stop -
When I add a stop (iPhone 4s) The navigation usually gets "stuck" in "proceed to the highlighted route" and updates sporadically, if at all. The car icon tracks properly on the map, but the text is frozen. This happens most of the time I use "Add a stop".

Move pop-up alerts to the bottom of the screen
When the pop-up alerts are displayed on the screen, it means I can't see any other alerts that may be coming up directly after that alert until I update, pass or close out the alert. My commute involves heavy traffic around the New York area and often there may be an accident right after a cop or a hazard right after a construction zone. It would be nice if one alert didn't limit my ability to see other upcoming alerts. If the alerts were moved to the bottom of the screen (I don't always need to see my car on the screen) it would allow for this enhancement to the application.

More privacy required
I know about the anonymous option, but this is not my point.
I would like to have the feauture to everyone to be only your nickname from Waze client, at maximum, to be shown. So, if you're logged in to Facebook, as I am, it won't appear your picture from Facebook or your name either; instead I would recommend to shown only the Waze emotion and the Waze nickname. To avoid any persuit, identity anything else that makes you easy to be track.
So, only your friends will see your picture on the map and your name.It's not just an idea, it's an important improvement for Waze continue could and with more privacy, safer.

Show as Navigation Option
Waze does not show as a navigation optiot in the Google Navigation System. Other apps, such as, Scout, Google navigation, Google Maps, show as navigation options. Waze does not appear on the Android Navigation option screen.
It should be an easy fix for the Android system to recognize Waze navigation.

I need help to find out why my normal route is not given us an option anymore.
For whatever reason a couple of days ago my normal option is now not given us a route when I go to navigation. I'm not sure what happened, or if there was an update. I am not happy anymore.

Add direction to Gas station names
When updating prices for Gas statitions if there are two either side of the road you can't tell which is which. Sometimes they have differnet prices (not often I grant you) and its not possible to know which is which. If you added Northbound, Eastbound etc. would make it clearer.

sound for instructions very choppy
The sound on my saying galaxy s2 is very, very choppy. I hear about 1 of every 3 or 4 words. My roommate's phone, same type, has the same problem. This makes it difficult to actually use the app.

Veterinary Emergency Services Category
Please add a category for pet emergency services. Having an option to find nearby hospitals is great, but for those of us with pets as well, in a time of crisis it can be difficult to find that information. Thank you!
