  1. Add a reliability score to users notifications?

    Hi,
    I frequently drive past speed traps where officers are parked dangerously in the road in an effort to increase revenue in the city and have clearly seen some on the Waze app while pulled along side of them.

    I periodically see that Waze sends me an update letting me know other users have thanked me for my posting. Is there any technology that allows Waze to gauge a posting based off of a users reliability score?

    The reason I feel this is important is because I frequently feel that police officers are falsely reporting that the report of their…

  2. ETA in the notification bar

    It would be great if the ETA and distance lwft showed as a drop down mini version in the notification bar. Google Maps has this,but I prefer Waze.

  3. I don't like the new waze. Can't stop navigation after it starts.

    I don't like the NEW Waze. Can't stop navigation once it starts unless I close the app completely. Make it bigger on the iphone so I can leave my phone on the dash while driving.

  5. bom dia, gostaria de sugerir ao waze, colocar um aplicativo para controlar as passagens pelo pedágio,

    Poderia haver um aplicativo para controlar as passagens pelo pedágio, assim como o WAZE pergunta se estou em uma praça de pedágio, ele poderia perguntar se paguei o pedágio e em seguida gerar uma planilha, muitas são as reclamações de cobrança automática pelos usuários, no caso o WAZE poderia ajudar os usuários a controlar as idas e vindas, e quando receber a fatura dos pedágios, poder lembrar se esteve ou não la.

  7. Timeliness of Reports

    Any and all reports show have a time limit on them. A report - traffic, debris, police - should be automatically removed after 6 or 12 hours. If a user confirms the report the timer gets reset. I recently drove through NJ and NY and there were some reports that you can see were no longer valid.

  9. Falta o ícone mais importante hoje, para Brasil, principalmente para São Paulo e Rio

    O APP é excelente!
    Porém falta um ícone muito importantíssimo e essencial para os dias de hoje, um aviso de assalto. Talvez um homenzinho com máscara e uma arma na mão, não importa. Mas, indicando assalto na via ou no farou à frente, arrastão, enfim, qualquer coisa do tipo. O importante, é que possamos ao nos deparar a uma situação perigosa e com o wase ligado, como um assalto acontecendo, um arrastão, ou qualquer coisa do tipo, nos imediatamente clicamos no ícone e assim avisamos a outras pessoas que estejam se aproximando da mesma área, assim elas poderão desviar e…

  10. 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 hour…

  13. Bring back the happy/sad Waze icons that used to appear in navigation alerts!

    We're really missing the happy/sad Waze icons that appeared in the route update notification. Perhaps I'm not using the correct name of that feature, but it's the notification that sometimes appears during a navigated/guided route that alerts you to either building traffic up ahead/delay or a faster route identified.

    The updated version of Waze (at least in iOS) no longer includes the happy/sad Waze icons, which is a shame! We loved that cool and creative addition. It's one of the many creative features that separates Waze from other navigation apps.

    Please bring back the happy/sad Waze icons! =)

  16. I miss the listing of traffic on the old app. It appears you can only see the traffic by looking at the map now.

    If you're looking to see the traffic along several routes, this was the fastest way to tell.

  17. You have ruined a great app. Please look at all the NEW reviews.

    Go back to the previous design. The new design is harder to read, there is less map to see and the alerts are dots instead of icons. Oh and it is much less intuitive. Was it changed for change sake? PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD design and listen to the long list of complaints posted everywhere including ITunes app store.

    UGH!!!!

  18. wake from sleep option could use enhancement

    I like that we have the sleep option now. But instead of automatically waking when you bring the app back to the foreground, I'd like an option to allow me to keep the app running but in sleep mode until I choose to wake it.

  19. Put the GUI back to how it was in the previous version

    The new user interface looks childish, but more critically you guys seem that have forgotten that the primary purpose of Waze is navigation. There's an empty grey bar hiding the bottom 10% of the map, and whenever a road feature comes up the top of the map gets hidden, meaning that a full third of the map is obscured. A phone screen is small enough as it is - with a third of the map hidden navigation becomes really difficult! To top it all off, there's no way of getting rid of the top banner - there's just a greyed-out…
