How do I remove trip suggestions?
To remove a single trip suggestion:
- On the suggestion, tap the three dots icon
- Tap Remove suggestion
- Tap Remove
You may still get trip suggestions with a similar origin/destination and departure time.
To remove all similar trip suggestions:
- On the suggestion, tap the three dots icon
- Tap Remove similar suggestions
- Tap Remove
Why can’t I remove some trip suggestions?
If you tried to remove a trip suggestion but it still appears, do the following:
- Check your internet connection – If you see a “No network” error message, it means your device isn’t connected to the internet. Make sure you’re connected and have a strong signal.
- Try closing and reopening the app
If that doesn’t work, it could be because the card you’re seeing isn’t a trip suggestion but a calendar event. You can remove this type of card in the following ways:
From the search menu
- Tap My Waze
- Tap the three dots next to the event you want to remove
- Tap Remove
From the "Plan a drive" screen
- Tap My Waze
Plan a drive
- Tap the three dots next to the event you want to remove
- Tap Remove
From your calendar app
- Open your calendar app
- Tap the event you want to remove
- Tap the three dots in the top-right corner
Delete
- Tap Delete again to confirm
Note: Steps may vary by calendar app.
You’ll need to restart Waze for the change to take effect.
