  1. Awards for People for Driving the Speed Limit

    Many people drive above the speed limit and we've all got a speeding ticket at one time, but wouldn't it be cool to get rewarded when we do drive at or near the speed limit? Maybe waze can create a feature to award points based on how much time or mileage that we are compliant to the posted speed limit. And maybe even leverage companies like Starbucks to award good drivers with a coffee! It is especially critical that drivers obey the limit on residential streets, and maybe this could motivate and educate drivers to do so!!

  2. Speedometer Contrast Issue

    In reference to speedometer contrast issue during daytime. Black and Red too similar for daytime glare. At night it is sufficient, perhaps have a daytime contrast theme separate from night-time.

  3. It would be great if I could add a custom date for Planned Routes

    It would be great if I could add a custom date for Planned Routes. I have an event I'd like to plan a route for, but it's in September. Other times, I don't know what day specifically it will be. Other times I know the specific date, but not what day of week it is.

  4. Pay for Parking based on location/zone

    Waze knows where I park and it would be really cool if I could just enter my credit card data and rely on Waze for automatic payment.

    Maybe also navigate me to the best value parking lot and open the barrier for me :)

  5. Team up with Pokemon for rare pokemon locations.

    Rare pokemon are hard to find, but they are always in set locations for a small period of time, just like a traffic accident. You could easily piggypack the popularity of Pokemon Go and get a ton of people to use your app for finding and reporting rarer pokemon locations.

  6. Accept all possible formats of GPS coordinates as destination

    Let's do Waze more user friendly when entering GPS coordinates.
    It would be nice if Waze would accept all possible formats of GPS coordinates (many www maps produce different formats of coordinates - usually with N/S, W/E letters - it is not user friendly always think how to transalte them into the only one current supported format...
    I can imagine, that when using N/S, W/E letters even order of the longtitude and latitude can be switched, etc...

  7. Multi-stop favorites

    I would love to be able to save multi-stop routes as favorites. I take my daughter to daycare every morning on my way to work. With the current system "daycare" and "work" are two separate favorites that I have to launch when I begin that leg of the trip. I would like to have both stops saved as one favorite so I don't have to begin a new route for each leg and can keep an eye on overall progress at any time.

  8. Change the route color from purple to green, yellow or red, depending on how recently the route has been 'swept' by another Wazer.

    Change the route color from purple to green, yellow or red, depending on how recently the route has been 'swept' by another Wazer: Green = route traversed by another Wazer no longer than 2 minutes ago; yellow = 2 to 5 minutes; red = no Wazer traffic within the last 5 minutes.

  9. Please stop routing onto bike routes

    I live in an area of the country with a lot of bike routes. Those routes are established on the assumption that they are low in auto traffic, or least generally local-only traffic. That seems to prompt Waze to guide me onto them fairly frequently during heavy traffic times, but in doing so this violates that basic assumption of keeping them low traffic.

    As someone who bikes and drives regularly, I'd rather not see those routes grow in auto traffic as Waze adoption increases. If possible, please stop routing auto traffic onto those routes so that they can remain safe…

  10. Alerta de atividades de bandidos e marginais

    Como sugestão e até como utilidade pública o Waze poderia, ao invés, ou melhor, além de alertar onde temos policiais o sistema poderia alertar onde temos atividades de bandidos... Em São Paulo em muitos semáforos ou em pontos de congestinamentos por vezes avistamos a atividade de marginais e isso poderia ser muito útil para que o motorista redobrasse sua atenção ao risco de assalto...

  11. Allow default sharing of route to android share rather than internal sharing mechanism

    Currently sharing is done to an alphabetical user list from my contacts. This is of course kind of silly since most of us use waze for navigation but not as a means of communication. I would like to see the old sharing back as default (share via other app), or even better - remember which app i used last to share and offer it as default. In the past 4 years I have shared my ride not via whatsapp only once, and that was into facebook chat.

  12. Add option to display Gas Stations (as clickable icons) on main map screen without having to use menu.

    Add the option to display gas stations on the main map as clickable icons, without having to go through the several menus (i.e. menu > gas > list > map... and all the way back) to visualize surrounding stations and return to main navigation map.

    Clicking the gas station icons on the main map view should allow users to "navigate" directly to the gas station and also update the fuel prices (if within range).

    Showing gas stations on the main map view has two main benefits:

    1. Updating gas prices to nearby stations becomes much easier.

    2. The user will have the…

  13. When I hit the park button, make it so that I can find my car later (with an arrow and distance) so I can find my car.

    They make apps to do this and Waze almost has everything you need. It could be great if Waze suggested it after you stop moving for a period of time at your destination.

  16. TTS language setting

    TTS is currently forced to a single language based on the country you are in. If you travel to other country, waze will speak wrong words.
    Just a setting to change it will be enough.

  18. Integrate with cobra iRadar

    Cobra has a radar detector that works with android and iphone. They upload/download radar locations for their own community. There may be an opportunity for the two companies to work together, and integrate with each other. Imagine: turn by turn nav, automatic traffic condition updates, user reported feedback of accidents and automatic reports of police radar points all in one cohesive application.

  20. Use special tiles for not downloaded areas

    Let the waze client use a special tile for not downloaded areas. When on a slow connection you sometimes realise there's no road where you are, so you enable construction mode just to realise a minute later that the roads in the area just weren't finished downloading to your phone yet.
