  1. Custom speeds by user

    This is just effected to the current user only.

    Just like the emergency buttons in the default map view, individuals can pick a new button named "Custom Speed." From here, they can set a speed value and distance. Additionally, setting a time range would be even better.

  2. More APIs for voice Assistants

    Users can use Google Assistant, Siri, etc., to add alerts (e.g., road closures, weather) and to turn on/off Waze settings, such as reading the next speed limit and turning off reading aloud road names... etc

  4. Request to Waze team

    Request to the Waze Team

    Please add a feature to Waze that uses OBD2 to provide vehicle speed pulses. Currently, when entering a tunnel, the vehicle stops on the map, so I would like this feature to ensure accurate navigation within tunnels.

    In Japan, there are interchanges within tunnels, making accurate navigation difficult without this feature. To improve this, please enable the use of an OBD2 connector to provide speed information even within tunnels.

    Additionally, I believe Waze could generate profit by supporting OBD2 and selling Waze-compatible OBD2 devices. It would also be helpful if these OBD2 devices could automatically…

  5. Railroad Crossing info

    my idea would be trying to either intergrade the USA FRA railroad crossing locator app into waze or make it so we can add the info manually so if at a crossing where there may be an incident a user can click on the crossing and it will bring up the crossing ID number and the emergence contact phone number for the Railroad.

    I feel like this feature could possibly save lives considering most do not know where to look for the signs at the crossing nor know that the locater app even exists.

  6. Move the Triangle reporting icon to the LEFT side of the screen on Car Play to make it easier for the driver reach

    FOR SAFETY REASONS...
    Moving the report triangle to the left side of the Car Play screen would make if FAR easier for the DRIVER to report Hazards and other actions.
    Currently, having the triangle on the RIGHT side of the screen requires reaching and taking eyes completely off the road to accurately click the icon. This is especially critical on newer vehicles with LARGE screens like Toytota Tundras. Moving the triangle to the Left side of the Screen would enhance safety and be easier to reach.

  8. WME specific report types

    Waze map editors can access a wider range of report types on the Waze app, including speed bumps. These reports are listed with their corresponding locations on the Waze map editor website, allowing editors to accurately add speed bumps where they were reported. Other report types include speed cameras, tollbooths, sharp curves, new places, and more.

  9. Disable street name popups on the map when using Apple CarPlay?

    I have a problem with the map when using Apple CarPlay. The car's display shows constantly changing large, annoying blocks (popups) with street names. Those blocks often fall over critical parts of the map I'm just driving to. That's why I can't see where I need to go on the map. For example, an upcoming intersection will be completely covered. I use the map with the setting to always keep north at the top (just in case that makes a difference).
    My proposal is to create an option in the settings to enable and disable these blocks. This makes the…

  10. Enable smooth, kinetic panning of the map when using keyboard keys, disable for when using a mouse

    When using keyboard keys to pan the map, the map chops in the desired direction. This should be a smooth, kinetic movement. When using a mouse, the map will sometime move with kinetic movement if the mouse is in motion when the drag-click is released. This should be an option that can be enabled or disabled by the editor as a preference.

  12. Offline Downloads by state

    Google maps let's you download offline maps by area but I think if a offline map feature was added it should be by state because it would be convenient for people doing long cross country road trips.

  13. Ai integration

    Using Google's Gemini it could predict potential traffic based on wether conditions saying that this route will be faster because it's going to rain in 5 minutes and traffic will emerge badly. Or a more intelligent rerouting system that ai thinks is best. Or a ai road assistant for spastic questions like: find me the nearest gym that's not packed right now. Or find me food nearby without wait times.

  14. Diversion recommended by the road manager due to a closed road

    It could be beneficial to add one or more diversions for a closed road. I'm referring to the diversions implemented by road managers in case of construction work, for example. These diversions would help guide drivers onto 'safe' roads rather than small roads that are not suitable for heavy traffic

  15. Add keyboard shortcuts for handling of URs

    Another suggestion related to "mark as solved" and "mask as non identified" actions is now in the backlog.
    Those actions are frequently made when handling URs, and would deserve shortcuts:
    - "Send" (sending a comment)
    - selecting the comment area (allowing to start typing a comment)
    - closing the window of the UR (perhaps via the ESC key)

  17. When adding hazards, log GPS coordinates when click on the yellow triangle

    At the moment, the location of a hazard is logged when the final tap is made (i.e. Hazard > Hazard > Vehicle on shoulder) - can the location not be changed so that it's logged when the first tap is made on the hazard triangle - it will make locations of hazards more accurate as now it can be half a mile down the road by the time the final tap is made...

  20. Aviso radares sin llegar a la velocidad límite

    El aviso de radares solo avisa si superas la velocidad del mismo. Eso puede provocar que te coja el radar, si en ese momento estas en un adelantamiento y no te has dado cuenta. Por lo que sería interesante que cuando te arpoximes a un radar se escuche algún sonido, un pitido o algo similar, aunque no estés superando la velocidad límite.
