Feature Request: Show Total ETA and Drive Duration When Adding Stops :
Dear Waze Team,
As a frequent user who relies on Waze for both personal and professional navigation, I’ve noticed a counterintuitive behavior when adding a stop to a route: the app updates the ETA and drive duration to reflect only the added stop, not the final destination. This disrupts planning, especially when the stop is brief or incidental.
Request:
Please consider adding an option to display the total drive duration and ETA to the final destination, even when a stop is added. Ideally, this could be shown as:
- A combined ETA (current time + total duration to final destination…1 vote -

Add option to avoid toll roads in certain countries
If a route spans across multiple countries, it would be nice to be able to tell Waze that I would like to avoid tolls in specific countries. For example if my route goes via three countries, I would like to avoid toll roads in Country 2 only, but still use them in Country 1 and Country 3.

Improper estimate calculations
Please evaluate the algorithm for estimating time to arrival. On longer trips, it is not possible to make the trip in the estimated time. For an example, in the last week, I've made two different trips, one 12 hour and one 13 hour. 90% of trip was on major highway or interstate. The only way to maintain "on time" was to drive 10-15 miles over speed limit. Obviously I made stops and those stops were timed and I adjusted the trip estimate for these stops.
It wouldn't be a big deal but calculate a 10-15 mph over a 13…

Never stop instructions until the user click on stop

Adjust routes
Hi Waze team,
I’m a long-time Wazer (5+ years), and I truly appreciate the app. However, I’d like to share some frustrating limitations:
- Add the ability to manually edit a route with multiple intermediate stops
Waze usually finds good routes, but sometimes I want to manually adjust it — set 2–3 waypoints, fix the path myself, and avoid places I don’t want to pass. Right now, it’s not possible to fully customize a route this way.
- Allow starting a route from a different location (not current GPS location)
In Ukraine, GPS can be unreliable or blocked in certain areas. Sometimes…

sync favorites
Why can't Waze sync my "Favorites" between my multiple devices? This is an issue that's been requested for years now, by many Waze users, and I just don't understand why it is so difficult to implement, especially since so many other apps have managed to figure it out!

Big "stop Waze" button
Sometimes (often) you just want to stop and close Waze. But you have to go through menus, which is DANGEROUS while driving. There should be a big readily-visible X on the main navigation screen. Or alternatively, a big readily-visible MUTE button.

Stop routing traffic inappropriately
I am contacting everyone at Waze right now. Waze is causing problems.
Highway 17 from San Jose to Santa Cruz is notorious for its beach traffic. Waze directing traffic thought downtown Los Gatos and on to mountain side roads to avoid this.
STOP DOING THIS!
First of all this is causing horrendous gridlock in downtown Los Gatos. The town has put up signs telling Beach Traffic to stick to Highway 17. Drivers are ignoring this because Waze gives tells them they can cut thru Los Gatos. This is causing MASSIVE problems.
Second, DON'T direct people off Hwy 17 on to…

Ability to add more than one stop on my route
I find the option to add stops on my route convenient for when I'm going on a long drive where I need to stop at a few places along the way, but it only allows me to add one extra stop. Why can I only add one? I'd appreciate being able to add at least 3 or 4 stops in one trip so I don't need to start a new route after each destination along the way (I've had to do that before and it's way too complicated). Can you please add an option to be able to add more…

Waze mode for public bus drivers
Team,
My name is Meital , and I’m a professional bus driver in Israel. I’d like to suggest a new feature that could greatly benefit both new and experienced drivers: a dedicated navigation mode for bus lines.
The idea is to create an option within Waze that allows drivers to select a specific public bus line (e.g., “Line 76 from Ashdod to Bat Yam”) and get step-by-step navigation based on the actual route and stops of that line. The system would include all scheduled stops, expected turns, and route-specific details.
This feature could serve multiple purposes:

Suggestion to add 'vehicle stopped in lane' in the 'hazard on road' option.
I often encounter vehicles stopped in the lane on the interstate as well as the surface streets. It would be helpful to have an option to report that hazard just as you can report a vehicle stopped on the side of the road. This would definitely help drivers so that they are aware and prepared for that hazard.

Tell us WHY Waze can't find a route
Today I was in Virginia and starting a drive to Northampton, MA. Waze told me that it couldn't find a route. In fact, it couldn't find a route to Boston, or New Haven, or anywhere else north of NY, NY. (It can find a route to NY, NY). I'd like to know why. I tried multiple phones.
When things like this happens, Waze should say WHY it can't find a route.
