  1. Take advantage of AMOLED screens

    AMOLED screens have the capability to reduce battery life when used correctly.
    When a user either selects Night Mode or Waze automatically selects Night Mode, please change the background to solid black instead of dark blue. This will greatly reduce the amount of LEDs being used by the screen, thus saving battery life.
    Or if a users wish to keep the dark blue background, have an option to select "Dark Night" mode.

  2. The new “road shield” symbol reduces text legibility

    New “road shield” symbol means the font size is reduced making it harder to read whilst driving. I’m a UK user. The road number is now shown in a box with a smaller font than it was previously. Please revert back to the previous, larger font size

  6. Implement a setting for winter tires with studs and help driver to avoid forbidden streets

    Implement a setting for winter tires with studs and help the driver to avoid forbidden streets. In urban areas in the Nordic countries it is becoming more common that local politicians forbid driving cars with winter tires with studs on some streets with high pollution. When creating a route to a destination, Waze do not take into account that some of the streets may be restricted due to this. This is becoming a problem since the driver need to be a local to know where not to drive. Signs showing the restriction are always present but will be noticed too…

  7. construction zones - Ability to mark both the start and end of the zone.

    Construction Zones - Ability to mark both the start and end of the zone. This would give everyone an idea on how long to expect any change to the traffic pattern.

    We plan to work on the ability to mark both the start and end of the construction zone in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

  9. Have an OPTION for arriving on the same-side of the street as the destination.

    This would apply mostly to cities but it could also apply in other congested areas. Arriving on the wrong side of the street in a city situation can be as bad as arriving several blocks away since in order to turn into the parking for the building you cannot crossover the heavy traffic or possibly a median. Instead you have to come up with your own way of circling around (and there may be many 1-way streets to thwart you) to get your vehicle on the same side of the street as the destination so you can park/drop off or…

  10. Reveal the limit on the maximum number of favorites

    Apparently there is a limit of 99 favorites that will be displayed, however, it doesn't say anywhere that there is a limit. When you reach the limit, it just stops saving new favorites, without letting you know that they have NOT been saved. It should tell you that you can't save any more until you delete some.

  12. Business Mileage

    Send text or post to calendar trip miles for business or personal use. Maybe prompt for business or personal when creating trip. Or maybe maintain log to email for reporting. Regular favourite trips have a check box to indicated "personal" or "business" would be a plus. This would be a huge enhancement!

  13. Prevent police from removing a report.

    Police have caught on to Waze. They always click "not there" when someone reports them in Waze. An easy way to keep that from happening is to only allow the "not there" response from a moving vehicle. That way the stationary cop can't delete the report.

  16. Driving directions on virtual cockpit

    Hey Wazers, I have found out, that when you use Apple Maps app through CarPlay, it is able to transfer information about next driving direction (for example "in 100m turn right" and an arrow) to the control unit of my car and it then shows it to me on my virtual cockpit. Since anothe iOS app can do this, I hope others should be able to, arent they? It will be really good to implement this...

  18. Combination Red Light & Speed Camera

    In my area there are now red light cameras that are also speed cameras. Why is this relevant? Because if the light is STALE (green for a long period and may be turning yellow/red soon at some point) I and other drivers who are aware that the light may be turning red may speed up to avoid the possibility of a receiving a red light ticket. (Because you can’t just stop for a stale green light) If you are aware the redlight camera also tickets for speed it would be a helpful reminder to keep your speed in check while…

  20. Move vehicle back to the bottom center of the screen in landscape mode

    I use an iPad mini in the dash of my car and the arrow representing the car and the highlighted route is on right 1/3 of the screen which cuts off the right side of the map. I like to see the streets to see if there is a better route in certain situations.

    Having an option to have the arrow on the bottom center or bottom right/left would be a good compromise.
