a start from option
Most of us know anywhere from 10-90% of our route. It would be nice to be able to have a "start from this area" option.

Report markers should be marked when the user presses the report button, not the send button.
Whenever I drive on windy freeways, or freeways with frequent blind spots, I don't see reportable items (police, vehicles on shoulder, etc) until the moment I pass them. Given the typical delay of entering the data into Waze, the markers end up being 500 to 1000 plus feet away from the actual item being reported.

Don't connect to the speaker when voice is muted
I like to listen to music streamed via bluetooth from my phone. While running waze, even though I have the spoken navigation disabled, every time directions would've been announced, the music volume dips briefly. It appears that waze is trying to attach to the speaker even though it isn't saying anything. Please have it check for being muted before taking control away from other applications that use the phone's audio.

Button for quick change type of route
Could you add the button for fast choice between fastest/shortest/optimal way, pelase? There is to much clicks trough menu-options-navigation. Sometimes there is no enough time, because the customer is going late a he is pretty nervous. Thanks you, Taxi driver from Prague

Allow reporting of issues from a PC
I don't use my phone when I'm on my motorcycle but would like to be able to report things I see once I reach my destination. I should be able to, from my PC or my phone, report issues which are not at my current location.

Suppress Repeat of Long-term Alerts
Suppress repeat audio alerts for "long-term alerts" such as red-light cameras. User to press a squelch button on the alert pop-up, so that subsequent drive by the same location won't trigger the audio alert.
This annoys me some, but my wife absolutely HATES it when Ms Waze blurts out "red light camera ahead" on the roads we travel every day. The squelch button would enable me to not only squelch Ms Waze, but also would make our marriage more enjoyable!
Those who like to hear the incessant warnings would simply not press the squelch for any given alert. Everybody would…

Popup messages for multiple road reports
On the way home tonight, Waze alerted me to several road problems ahead (police, stopped vehicles, etc.). The reports were in such close succession (less than a mile apart) that the popup message for the first report was still on screen when the popup message for the second report appeared. Unfortunately, the second popup was on top so I could no longer see any information about the first report. When displaying multiple popup messages simultaneously, Waze should layer them such that the hazard in closest proximity to you is on top, followed by the next closest, and so on. This…

Semaphores
Waze could have an algorithm to detect where are the semaphores in the city, and keep how long they take to open, to avoid the semaphores that take longer.
There are some semaphores in São Paulo that take too long to open. It would be very useful to avoid them.5 votes -
include a live odometer (android)
As a bicyclist, I don't get a spedometer nor an odometer with my bike. Instead of paying an extra $200 for the setup, I decided to mount my phone to my bike hence me using waze, and having a difficult time deciding whether or not I should use waze, or a diff app for my trips as I like keeping track of my speed, distance, and time for my various trips.
If you can include a hud or at least an indicator for distance traveled, that would be awesome. I'm liking the inDrive app style

Incidents
When I spot a problem on the road and hit the button , it should mark the problem at that point on the map not when I get to send it , this way would be more accurate .

Add option to select car pool when navigating
Lets popup "carpool?" button after choosing destination in carpool times. This will help to get corresponding exits and more precise calculations. Sometimes traffic stopped while carpool is open and I dont want to get average estimation and alternative route. Thanks!
5 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Reporting Queue
Can you please add reporting queue. When, e.g. I am traveling for 60 km's I get 5 or 6 reports per travel, but I want to simply record the location and use "Later" button to report it later (at destination, or gas station), but when I do this twice or more, the last report overwrites the previous one, so I can't post all problems (constructions, map errors, etc.).
I know, for example when I am reporting car at edge of road, this might be old information, but I want to use this option mainly for constructions, map errors, etc. where…

Improve the Waze iPhone API
Improve the Waze iPhone API. Currently only the features are available using he waze:// api:
http://www.waze.com/dev/documentation/The new google maps app has much much more capability:
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios/urlschemeI would love to be able to create a one tap navigate using waze link to all of my contacts in my address book. I can't do this currently because only queries are possible, plus the queries can't default to a specific search, further you can't navigate to a long/lat. for address which aren't known to waze... These would be very helpful!

Limited varible speed switch
Have a limited speed switch that the user can select, ie truckers in Europe are limited to 56mph some even limited to 52mph to give a more accurate arrival time, like TT have in their devices, arrival time is way out on Waze at present for us truck drivers!

Waze should reroute my drive when there is a accident and major backup, right? But it does not. Do I have a setting not setup correctly?
