  1. A few user stories for supporting BEV / electromobility in Waze

    Dear Wazers,

    I have been using your product far before "the Google times." When I first downloaded Waze, the road to my home was not "Wazed-paved" yet, so I had to pave it myself :). Anyway, that's not what I'm writing you about. I want to extend a request to you through a few user stories, which would significantly enhance my electromobility driving experience. I hope you're already thinking in that direction, and we'll see enhancements for BEV (battery-electric vehicles) soon.

    There're plenty of elecromobile-specific apps, but Waze is my current choice for a guidance app. As such, I am…

  2. carpool

    Turn carpool notice OFF !! Retired and drive by myself almost every day. I don't need the Carpool suggestion coming on every time I drive. Really dangerous when using Waze at night and that pops up. It covers my screen and have to tap it to get back to map.

  3. Do AWAY with cartoonish “rewards”

    Do AWAY with the cartoonish rewards! This is a useful app and not a ridiculous game. Going 75mph down the highway and I “verify” a car on the side of the road and as soon as I do I come over a small rise and there’s a car in the left shoulder partially in the fast lane and the ridiculous cartoon rewards are still flashing so I can’t press the notification button to alert other drivers!! It’s either a game or a useful app, stop trying to make it both!!

  5. Mejorar la seguridad en la vía

    Para mejorar la seguridad de los conductores en la vía, especialmente en Colombia, se debería:

    -Crear una notificación por voz que sugiera disminuir la velocidad por la existencia de baches peligrosos en la vía.
    - Permitir a los usuarios "pintar" los baches en la vía con un color que les permita a otros usuarios darse cuenta de la posición exacta de los mismos. De igual manera, se les permita "borrar" los baches que vayan siendo reparados.
    - Permitir la descarga previa de la ruta con notificaciones sobre baches para evitar accidentes por pérdida de conectividad.

  6. Go back to the old format for alerts. Color & Location

    Blue for police, orange for hazards. It's more eye-catching. Having the alerts near the bottom really doesn't catch the eye. Before the change was made I didn't even have to glance at my phone I could see the colors and icon through my peripheral vision

  9. AskWazersBox - a hybrid reporting tool enhancing Wazers and Map Editors cooperation

    As StreetView is often outdated or just does not exist when trying to keep Waze Maps updated with latest road constructions or changes, road configurations/restrictions/speed limits/signs etc. needs to be checked and verified on-spot. There's no chance Waze Map Editors will go and check everything themselves. We have so many Wazers driving around that could help them answering specific questions.

    I suggest creating a hybrid reporting tool that would extend existing reporting functionality and help Waze Map Editors gathering specific answers they need directly from Wazers who are on-spot. This would let to keep Waze Maps updated as fast and…

  11. Google based domain fronting for Waze to fight internet censorship

    Hi

    As you might know Waze is being blocked in different countries including Iran.
    It would be great to implement domain fronting techniques for Waze client so people in countries with limited internet access could be able to use Waze without installing third party VPN software.
    Messenger App Signal has implemented such techniques and it has been successful so far.

  13. Spotify voice commands

    It's very dangerous that someone has access to Spotify when driving with Waze but can't use voice commands to interact with it. By not implemening voice command compatibility with Spotify, Waze makes it dangerous for drivers to control their music. Compare that to Android auto, which does let you use voice commands to control your music.

  14. Please add an immigration and customs enforcement Checkpoint

    Could you please add an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Checkpoint item into a future version of waze? These are not police items, but can slow traffic down, so knowing in advance where they are would be COOL!

  15. English (uk) voice has changed for the worst

    Hi- I am a big fan of WAZE. I use it everyday and convert everyone over to it, as well. There is an issue in having with the updated "voices".

    The new ENGLISH (UK) does not say the street names as it used to do. This is a problem because now I have to continually take my eyes off road and read the street names on phone. Tonight I MISSED MY MERGE because I was looking down at phone and couldn't merge to the left in time.

    The previous ENGLISH (uk) voice would say mileage, direction of turn or merge…

  16. Reporting Feature / Report Editing

    The ability to create or move an item you reported, e.g. police, accident, etc. after the fact.

    Sometimes you happen upon an accident scene so suddenly you do not think immediately of reporting it on Waze. And it won't help to report it 1 km further. So I would like to be able to add the event and select the precise location after I left the area already. And the ability to drag the icon to a more precise location if I reported it a tad too late.

    Also, if I am driving alone without a passenger to click the…

  17. Only report and show hazards / etc on your side of the road

    When viewing the map or receiving alerts, add an option to only report items on the side of the road you are driving and/or you are routed on. As a "reverse commuter" I constantly see hazards on my route but they are usually on the other side. It makes viewing the map for issues very difficult, almost unusable.

  18. sync favorites

    Why can't Waze sync my "Favorites" between my multiple devices? This is an issue that's been requested for years now, by many Waze users, and I just don't understand why it is so difficult to implement, especially since so many other apps have managed to figure it out!
