Remove limits on saved places
Remove the limit from number of saved places. (its limited to 100). As a taxi driver, i found myself saving many places. Its easy for me to type the short letters and my saved places come on top. I want to use waze all the time even if i know where am going because it gives me alerts about speed cam, traffic..... Please kindly remove that limitation.
There's another thing that needs fixing. For example, am in Abu Dhabi where there's Malls that begins with same letters in there names, like; Marina Mall, Mushrif Mall, Mazyad Mall. So the best shortcut name is MM. When i saved all the 3, only 2 can be displayed on top when i search the shortcut MM. We need all displayed on top in order of a place that was saved first.

Closed locations
Multiple times, I have been taken miles off of my route to go to a certain store or rest stop or gas station, only to arrive and discover that it’s either permanently closed or hasn’t been opened for business yet (I’m not talking business hours. I’m talking “still under construction.”) this is infuriating. Please allow us to mark locations as permanently closed or have the app notify us that it’s not open yet. I’m tired of pulling into a closed parking lot because Waze told me something was open. I opened the app to try and mark the location as permanently closed to help the next person and I couldn’t even do that.

Enhancing Navigation by Selectively Considering Planned Road Closures
One possible solution could be to include a checkbox that allows editors to choose which planned closures are considered so important that they should be taken into account in the navigation before they become effective. This way, editors can select only the closures that are critical for navigation, while excluding those that are not as important.
For example, in Switzerland these days, the Gotthard Tunnel is closed at night for cleaning. This closure can cause significant disruptions to travel, as the Gotthard Tunnel is an essential link between German-speaking Switzerland and the Italian-speaking Ticino region. Without the tunnel, the detour would have to start much further away, causing much longer travel times and significant inconvenience.
If the closure starts at 10 pm, the navigation would strictly continue towards the Gotthard Tunnel until that time, only to then turn back shortly before the closure. This could be avoided if the planned closure could be taken into account in the navigation before it becomes effective.
A restriction would not pose this problem, but we would not have the flexibility to adjust the closure at short notice, as we would have to wait for the map update. That’s why it would be useful if the planned closures could be taken into account in the navigation before they become effective.
With the checkbox, it could also ensure that the end date is taken into account. For example, if the closure ends at 5am, navigation could start towards that closure beforehand. However, this can only be ensured with the checkbox, so that in case of an accident or an unclear closure end time, navigation is not initiated prematurely.

Return Route same as Initial Route
I had to drive to Greenville, NC from Morehead City. And the route was different than the return home. The return home was actually longer, and took me on a lot of smaller streets and small towns instead of the large streets that was the initial out. This should be critical

Consecutive alerts within a short distance
At the moment, the Waze app provides alerts (such as hazard reports or speed/red light camera) approximately 400-500m away from the location. After driving past the report or camera, Waze doesn't check if there are any further alerts in the next 400-500m and as such, drivers miss out on this information.
An example is at the first traffic light, there is a red light camera, however after turning, the next traffic light (assuming it is relatively close/within 500m) also has a red light camera. Drivers currently only receive one alert for the first red light camera but not for the second red light camera.
I am hoping to see if Waze can make updates to their alerting system that after the reports or camera alerts disappear from screen, to do an additional check in the next 500m to see if there are any nearby alerts that are important.

Seen that you no longer associate with Facebook, I can’t follow my friends on Waze. Why don’t you create your own social media platform so Waze users can follow their from around the country and world to share their travels.
Very disappointed I can’t connect with friends on Waze.11 votes -
Sunglare warning
Every morning, there are so many unnecessary accidents and traffic delays because people don't know how to put on sunglasses in the morning. Having a sunglare warning...and one that tells people to wear their sunglasses...might help...so people don't seemed shocked when they come around a curve and the sun is in their face again. Makes driving to work so frustrating when people seemed shocked every time. Please please please add a Sunglare Weather Hazard soon.

Bug with sorting recorded locations
(With French version under Android)
After having added several places in the "Recorded locations" panel (about 25) and having manually sorted them, I close the app. When re-opening it, the locations are scrambled and even if I sort the places again and again, the sorting is lost each time after the app is closed.11 votes -
Lower speed threshold setting
All of the speed threshold settings are for at or above the speed limit. By the time the alert goes off I am already breaking the speed limit. It would be nice to set a threshold like 3 or 5 mph below the speed limit to prevent ever going over.

More informative map or interactive.
It would be convenient if you can see how’s the weather over there( your destination) and a cool feature like a altimeter to see how high you are.

Motorcycle mode view
When using motorcycle mode it would be nice to have all the buttons on the left side since the left hand is the only one safe to use while riding. Also maybe personalize this view for motorcycle use, only when a motorcycle vehicle is selected.

Report speed limit when reporting speed trap ahead
Just a before a speed trap, most drivers have no idea what the speed limit is. Thinking they need to avoid a fine they slow down rapidly causing a mini traffic jam and a lot of danger. If you can report the speed limit, most drivers would maintain speed and traffic will go smoother. This happens mostly in Israel highway 2.

Notifications for Roads with Variable Speed Limits
Lots of UK motorways have variable speed limits. Obviously these change a lot so there’s no way we can have a live map of them, but as you go on to a road with a variable speed limit it would be nice to get a notification saying something like “Entering Variable Speed Limit Area. The legal speed limit may be different to the limit shown in Waze.” Another useful notification could be on the approach to traffic or around reported broken down cars, a notification asking the lines of “Hazard/Traffic reported on the road ahead, pay attention to Variable Speed Limit Displays”. All these alerts should have the ability to be turned on and off by the user.
