You are currently limited to routing up to about 200 miles (320km) distance
When you request a route the client device app assumes you are continuing in the same direction your last travelled. This is often desirable, but can lead to unnecessarily longer routes when you have a choice of direction from your starting position. We need the option to tell Waze we can leave a starting point in any direction
The icon display for roundabout directions are incorrect for countries that drive on the left. The spoken instructions are correct
Group road reports are not automatically clearing from the map display

-* Waze gives verbal instructions at fixed distances from turns. For example, at 800m (half a mile), 200m (200 yards) and at the turn. There is a problem when you complete one turn and the distance to the next turn is less than 200m. While the display shows the upcoming turn, there is no verbal warning until you reach the turn. This is too late when you need to get into the correct lane. A new verbal warning is needed such as "Coming next: turn right". Waze staff are working on adding another prompt of "and then" which will allow a spoken description of two close manoeuvres
