Keep the app from turning off navigation
If you have the app open in the background, or while the screen is off or locked, navigation can stop if you are stopped for too long. This is beyond frustrating. When I am riding my motorcycle, I listed to the navigation on my bluetooth system. I keep my phone screen locked in my pocket. However, if I am stopped in traffic or at a stop light too soon, then navigation will completely stop. I have to stop, unlock my phone, and then when I open waze, it asks if I want to resume navigation. DO NOT AUTO STOP NAVIGATION.…

Plan a drive carpool edition
My suggestion is to be able to plan a drive for multiple stops or carpool for the future. Right now, you can plan a drive in the future for one stop, but it would be great to do it for 2 stops.
9 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.

Discard fuel prices after some time
For each gas station there are the fuel prices, e how many days ago they were entered.
For some gas stations, the fuel prices have not updated since long time, and so the indication has become useless and misleading. It may be that it's listed an expensive price for a gas station just because in the past the fuel was everywhere more expensive than now (and hence now nobody will go to that gas station, and the prices of that station will not get updated anymore).Hence, my proposal is that, after some time (say, two months), the fuel prices…

Police warning
Hi. I think it will be good if the warning for police can be set to higher volume or other kind of warning that can take our attention better. And maybe have an option so that the screen of your phone turns red when there is police nearby.

Route History
I had the problem of having to think about what route I took when passing through tolls. I think it would be helpful if you can look at past routes. I know there's history but it just gives you location not the route you had to take. Tollways require the plaza numbers and the history of your route could allow someone to look at their history to find out this information.

Car pointer more centered
Especially when in landscape mode, the car pointer is at the very bottom of the screen, what does not allow to have a good view of the roads and surroundings.
Please make at least an option to have the car pointer more centered on the screen.9 votes -
Common Route Change Alert.
We all have a weekday routine driving to work in the morning and back home in the evening. Most times we do not turn on Waze since the rout does not change. When there are traffic problems in that common route, I'd like to receive an alert from Waze informing me to switch on and follow a faster route automatically.

I'd like to be able to add a stop along a drive in the Android Auto implementation.
In the normal Waze UI, I can add a stop along my trip. In Android Auto, I cannot do this. The Google Navigation app on Android Auto allows it and makes the UI for such a feature pretty simple to manage.

Waze for the handicapped
I think it would be extremely beneficial for Waze to expand its horizons to help handicapped people find accessible routes to make their commute easier. Even seemingly mundane tasks become arduous given that every navigation system is catered toward visibly able individuals. Maybe partner up with the commuters themselves and create these routes! Google maps should install this feature, pronto.

Reminder button for editors
As an editor, when I'm driving, using the app, when I see something that I need to add or fix later in the editor, I have to takes my eyes off the road while I find and press five buttons, type a brief reminder, then press Send.
For users who are also editors, could you add a "Reminder" button to the screen after the orange button (the screen with the Traffic, Hazard, Map Issue, etc buttons), that will simply leave a "Reminder" UR, with the editor's userid filled in.

Tell Wazers to form a rescue alley in a traffic jam
When you are in a traffic jam you have to form a rescue alley (in germany and many other countries). But nobody is doing so. That's making it hard for the ambulance to reach the injured people.
Please tell the wazers to form a rescue alley when waze recognizes a traffic jam.

Tunnel Navigation bluetooth OBDII
Typically GPS signal is lost in long tunnels. Why not include a waze connection to a bluetooth enabled OBDII device in your car to give accurate speed. The direction is immaterial as the tunnel path is well known.The devices are cheap about $5 to $20 on ebay. Waze would benefit by knowing speed through tunnels. Yes, beacons are good, but not if they are sparsely placed.

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!

Sharing anonymized GPS data
This message concerned potential ConnectedCitizens partners. Uber just allow sharing their GPS anonymized data : https://movement.uber.com/cities . I think Waze should look into that possibility for ConnectedCitizens partners as this data has great interest for different transportation planning purposes. It could allow analyzing weaving highway section or origin-destination major interchange movements. Thanks for considering this possibility.

Replace car on shoulder with person on shoulder
It's damn annoying having car on shoulder reports every 3 min while in major city's. If a car is ok the shoulder that's not a hazard unless a person is outside of their car. Just replace car on shoulder with person on shoulder. Then there will be less alerts.

Add arrive button
Sometimes when arriving at very large places, Waze thinks that you arrive only when you are in the front door of the place. Think for example in a mall, the parking lot will be huge, but Waze already traced the route until the front door.
An "arrive" button will help Waze to understand that you are already at your destination and there is no need to recalculate the route while you are looking for a parking spot9 votes -
You should be able to sign up without a phone number, very disappointed that you can't already...
You shouldn't have to enter your phone number to sign up.
