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.

Improve Terrible Social Aspects of Waze
Your App and customer service are terrible. I cannot add friends, except for ONE person in my contacts. Why is Waze so terrible at this. I do not want to connect with Facebook so don't suggest it. My wife is on Waze and cannot add me. I cannot add her. This comes after she got a new phone. Waze support is also crap;(support@waze.com) replies saying that email is not monitored! What a joke of a company! I will be shocked if Waze takes action because they have demonstrated their indifference to their users.

Since the new update the reports ahead function doesn’t work properly I’ve tried it on a few phones friends have the same issue
Instead of giving incidents and objects on the road or notifying of police, it says all clear when that isn’t the case

On this waze version, a new icon ( add friends...) located on the close to bottom right of the screen partially hides the speed meter.
Either get rid of this almost useless icon or at least move it up in such a way it does not overlap the speed indicator

Waze calculates time to leave, sends reminder to leave, so I can be at "x" on time
Waze calculates what time I should leave and sends a notification (text, etc), based on current traffic and what time I would like to be at my final destination.
Example:
I have to pick up a friend at 5PM, but I am still at work. Waze sends me a note, predicting that I should leave by 4:25PM to arrive at my friend's location for approx 5PM.49 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

After the last update waze has become worse
Dear developers.
(If you are still reading this)
No offense, but, after each update,
waze, it is getting worse and worse.
a feeling that you want to screw up this application,
that all was abandoned.
I confess, and I have such a thought slips, carry waze and go on something else. the good thing laid a lot.
Lord, developers do not need to invent or anything, just carefully read the user reviews.
After the last update waze began to fail even more. It lost a lot of functions, such as viewing events. the interface is not convenient! stael more children,…6 votes -
Waze client menu not entirely displayed on the screen!
I cannot understand why my Menu popup is not completely displayed on my screen though space is wide enough to accept this (Samsung Galaxy S3 ) I only get the 2 upper rows of icons, but the lower one (Reports, My Friends and Settings) is truncated.As a result, I have to slide the menu up before being able to select "Settings" for example.
Do other users have the same behavior for their client?2 votesHey,
We're happy to share that this idea is already live!
Thanks!

נהג התורן/The driver of the mast
כאשר אנשים מגיעים לאירוע כלשהו (אולם אירועים, פאבים או סתם מסיבה אצל חברים) ושותים משקעות אלכוהול יש צורך לחזור הביתה עם רכב. כאן נפתחת אופציה להזמין נהג התורן שיאסוף אותם ברכב שלהם למקום המגורים או כל מקום אחר שהם ירצו תמורת תשלום.
When people come to an event (banquet hall, pubs or just a party with friends) and drink alcohol, you have to go home with a car. Here is an option to invite the driver of the mast to pick them up in their car to the place of residence or any other place they want.1 voteThanks for your feedback.

Add a 'record my route' button, you can then forward your ideal route to another wazer
We all have our preferred routes, (example) it is so nice to give away your country adventure route to a friend and share the best views, rides and sceneries to the perfect holiday location. Just press the 'record' button and afterwards 'save route' and 'share route'.

Little view improvement, if posible
Dear friends at Waze,
Waze is my main nav app for me. I'm living in Spain, with very hot sunny days, and here to share my sugestion to improve, if posible:
Some times on sunny days, the phone main screen prompts are very hard to read, specially the top blue characters over black background.
Could these be changed to yellow or white or bright orange over black? would then be more readable.
Would be nice, sure.
Best regards

Update online help re:Using your personal address book contacts to navigate (for iOS)
Current online forum help does not accurately describe how to enable Waze to access your personal address book contacts to navigate (for iOS). After some back/forth with Waze staff I was able to find how to do so.

- Open up Waze and press “search”
- Press “Where To?” And it will take you to the next “Where to” screen that shows “Talk to Waze” and “Favorites” below the search bar.
- Below “Favorites” is a button “Search Contacts - Drive to …

Categorizing Favorites
With my Garmin, I can quickly look at my favorites list relative to my current location. ADVANTAGE: I'm hungry.....it tells me where my favorite restaurants and coffee shops are and how close. Makes it easy to return there when i'm in the area.
UPGRADE: Ability to share your favorites list with a friend, so that they can choose a place and navigate there as well!
