Interchange guidance method in ver. 2.2 is wrong. Revert to 2.0 method.
In version 2.2 (Android & iPhone) the written guidance in interchanges was changed. It tries to look-ahead and gives guidance based on the ramp exiting the interchange.
This is inconsistent with the way guidance worked in version 2.0 and therefore inconsistent with the ramp's naming in the Waze map. It leads to confusing guidance that does not match the actual road signs.
This is really dangerous as it increases drivers' confusion in the interchange.
Please revert the guidance method to the way it was in version 2.0For details see http://www.waze.co.il/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=9996&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=15#p59430 (in Hebrew)

Location and type of landmark in search results
For easier identification of a landmark, it could be great, to know the settlement or road which is near it and the type of the landmark, after the name of the landmark, like this:

Add user report confirmation/cancelation buttons for all events
Add user report confirmation/cancelation buttons for all events, similar to "police/not here". This would allow to refresh the reports in the map by other drivers, provide more 'live' info + quicker cancellation of outdated events.

use Android API for event buttons and text input
to report traffic/event irrelevancy it is darn hard to hit that tiny round button with a caret (>) at the end of the event item. instead I should be able to use a long press on a much broader list item to pop up the menu. also, the menu that pops up ought to be from the API. it would create bigger buttons (better for touch sensitive devices) and makes for a much more consistent device use experience plus it would make it more accessible while driving. More accessible means less accidents.
also text input. there seems to be no way to correct typos a few chars back without using backspace. In Android API text inputs users can easily use the navigation buttons/trackball to scroll to the place of mistake and make a MUCH quicker edit.

Flock camera
Mobile police camera is not the same think as a flock camera. A flock camera is not mobile! There needs to be a different button to report these or an ability to turn it off.

Request for Satellite Map View in Waze
Hello Waze Support Team,
I’m writing to request that Waze add an option to view the map in satellite mode. The app currently only shows the default map style, and having a satellite view would be very helpful for navigation and for recognizing locations more accurately.
Many navigation apps offer both standard and satellite map modes, and I believe this feature would greatly improve the user experience in Waze.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.
Kind regards,

dynamic rerouting
Please stop automatic (dynamic) re-routing. Waze no longer is asking for re-routing permission from the user during active navigation. Waze is now dynamically (automatically) re-routes user without askiing nor alerting the user. Please STOP automatic (dynamic) re-routing without asking user's permission. Please stop automatic dynamic re-routing without asking user.

Changing Destination on Phone While Connected to Android Auto
I want to change my destination on my phone while it's connected to my car through Android Auto, but I can’t type directly on the car screen. Currently, I have to unplug the cable to change the destination on my phone, and then plug it back in to reconnect to the car.

An option to show EV charging stations on map
Waze offers an option to indicate EV charging stations in a given area but, in order to access it you need to move out from your map.
It would be great to have the option to show EV charging stations around you while you are driving rather than having to move to a separate page.

Improve usability for EV drivers
Please add more EV friendly information. Have no option to choose EV as fuel type and doesn't show charging stations. Since buying my car, I've actually found Google Maps a far better option but do miss the community reporting of Waze as its not as good in Google Maps

School districts input feed for updating their annual schedule and hours of operation changes
Since some school districts can have 85 or more zones and many states have over 20 counties ; managing the school holiday and time schedules can be a very big task.
Recommend getting a special feed set up so school districts can update them.11 votes -

Truck
Ok, so 6+ years ago it was in the too hard basket to make a truck route...
How about just collect data from people who want to add road closures to already set routes but so long as the vehicle type is set for truck/RV. Effectively it would be a clone overlay of map guides but over time with the community help it would create itself and within days to start with.
I would happily help through the teething issues within the first few months of individually adding closure roads to route if it meant that the route was more precise and made my job easier for planned routes.
If we started this 6+ years ago by now we'd have a pretty substantial map set out and I would happily pay for that experience as no other app even Tom Tom offers the experience Waze does.Ok, so 6+ years ago it was in the too hard basket to make a truck route...
