Waze to initiate pre-determined reply to texts when driving
I want waze to initiate a pre-determined text reply automatically when I am driving, note automatically, so it switches on and off according to when I am driving using Waze. I would set my reply to say: "I'm driving at the moment so please call me as I can't read your texts but can speak to you using bluetooth. This text has been sent to you by Waze navigation app."

Add friends back.
This is what set Waze apart from other navigation apps and the reason I initially started using it. Allowing users to see the status of friends or create group drives without needing FB accounts would definitely attract a larger user base.

Vocal control of everything Waze can do whilst driving.
You should be able to just speak everything into the app, for everything and anything you might need to do, especially since it is illegal to even touch your mobile phone whilst driving these days.
Anything that requires 'touch' to operate whilst driving, NEEDS a vocal command equivalent

Hazard reporting when not driving
There needs to be a way to report hazards after you’ve driven / not while your in the current area. I’ve been in multiple situations where there has been a hazard like a crash or roadworks where i’m not in a position to be using my phone while driving as to fully pay attention to my surroundings. I feel only having hazard reporting able to work while driving is a bit dangerous and by including the ability to report things you’ve encountered on your drive at home or when your not behind the wheel would benefit the safety of yourself…

Keep the audio controls from disappearing when ads pop-down
It would be great if the audio controls didn't disappear during the pop-down ads and such that appear...once they disappear, the audio controls have to be re-activated. This is a nuisance on long drives.

When driving on
When driving through a many level street/highway, you should be asked in which level you are driving, since, at this moment, the App can detect you on either level, which leads to misdirections; if asked on which level one is driving, one would get the most accurate directions.

Don't want to have to allow access to my contacts to share a drive
In the new version, I can't enter an address or number anymore...and I'd really prefer not to sign over my entire contact list to waze. Can you reinstitute the message/email options in "share my drive"?

App Freezing
Since the last update, the app just locks up when I try to remove “recent drives”.
I’ve restarted my device but it makes no difference.

Highway town list view
When on long drives have an option on a long highway to show a list of upcoming towns (distance and time) to plan stops along the trip. Gives flexibility along a route to plan stops while understanding the end destination time

Suggested driving speed based on traffic
Based on current driving conditions, the app would let you know how fast you should be going to keep traffic moving (i.e., if it was heavy traffic the app would recommend a speed of 10mph vs. moderate traffic with a recommended speed of 35mph). The feature would also suggest a lane you should be driving in, based on GPS speed, so drivers who prefer to go at a modest highway speed are in the middle or right lanes.

Add show all button to Suggestions as it doesn’t show all calendar appointments
The suggested drives feature was changed recently such that you can’t click “show more” - the suggestions only include 3 appointments and with our shared family calendars often doesn’t include the place I am going. this requires me to manually go to my calendar and find the address and manually enter it. This is really inefficient, inconvenient and annoying.

Plan a drive
I'm not happy with the relocation of "Plan a drive." It's way too difficult to get to now and not intuitive any more. Please put it back on the main page.

Pickup pasanger will display levels
When Waze alerts me to pickup new passenger on the way (Waze carpool) it will be awesome to see how much drives the wazer done before meeting me. What is his level? So I would have some sort of confidence when picking up a total stranger.

Driving to catch a flight
Imagine you are off on holiday. Perhaps hiring a car to drive to your destination after catching a flight. You could put your ultimate destination in to Waze and the airport / flight you are going to take.
Waze could keep you up to date on your departure while you're driving to the airport. (and advise on a departure time from your origin). It can update your friends of your progress.
It could keep your ETA up to date with your friends by cross-referencing the flight information and expected arrival time. (It could probably show your approx location based on…

Plans a drive
Dear Waze Team,
I'd like to share a few thoughts on the “Plan a Drive” feature, which I think has great potential but currently feels quite limited in its flexibility.
Customizable Start Point: The feature should allow users to manually select the starting point (Point A) instead of defaulting to the current location. This flexibility is crucial for planning future trips or coordinating journeys for others.
Multiple Destinations: The ability to add at least two destinations would be incredibly helpful. Many trips involve more than one stop, and being able to plan this ahead would enhance the user experience tremendously.

Remove parking lots from view while driving
Parking lots should be revamped as place points as opposed to area places to reduce visual clutter on the map while driving. Or perhaps a "show parking lots in app view" toggle to give drivers the option to see them. It could be enabled by default.
Larger parking lots in front of big-box retail stores like Target or Walmart should be obvious and not displayed. You can't miss them, they are often the only place to park.
