  1. Category for map issues

    I was driving the other day and the speed limit indicated by Waze was incorrect. I went to the map issue button in the car, but that was not one of the options for telling what the problem with the map was. The editor who handled my problem then needed to contact me just to find out what the problem with the map was. While I don't mind the contact, it would have quicker and easier for everyone if a speed limit change was an option. Where I'm currently living there is a housing boom. As new subdivisions go up,…

  2. Add to all places the field “Located in venue”

    The places of the Category "Charging Station" have the field “Located in venue”. The same field should be added to public places of other categories.

  4. Que tal adicionar a opção de marcar lombadas no Waze? Isso ajudaria os motoristas a evitar problemas na estrada. O que acham?

    Atualmente, o Waze oferece alertas para várias condições de trânsito, como congestionamentos e acidentes, o que é incrivelmente útil. No entanto, gostaria de sugerir a adição de um recurso que permita aos usuários marcar a presença de lombadas nas estradas.

    Aqui estão alguns detalhes sobre como esse recurso poderia funcionar:

    Opção de Notificação Personalizável: Permitir aos usuários escolher se desejam receber notificações sobre lombadas próximas e se desejam ouvir ou não essas notificações durante a navegação.

    Marcação e Verificação de Lombadas: Após um usuário marcar uma lombada, permitir que outros usuários confirmem sua presença ou relatem se a lombada já…

  7. Store state in URL

    I want to bookmark certain configurations of WME that contain certain layers or UR filter settings. This is not possible at the moment since the state of UR filters or layers aren't saved in the URL.

  8. AGGIORNAMENTO ANDROID AUTO

    Ciao! non so se è una particolarità solo mia oppure no , notavo utilizzando l applicazione da android auto non è sempre in linea con lo smartphone, manca sempre qualcosina anche una cosa banale come impostare le voci.
    Sarebbe davvero eccellente se riportasse tutte le opzioni dello smart.

    When we select a map suggestion in the Issue Tracker, the map is centered on the suggestion, but the zoom level isn't changed. The map should zoom in to the suggestion.

  10. wme - editor profile - viewability?

    hi.

    it would be nice if we could either allow or disallow other users from viewing our editor profile, this is because of safety of where certain editors may try to find where a user lives. (exemptions would be the countries co-ordinators and waze staff).

    thank you.

  11. Allow photo evidence of map errors

    Allow photo evidence of map errors.

    Sometimes trying to explain what error happened while driving is difficult to upload (while driving) and difficult to explain (after the fact) but allowing someone to upload a photo of the map when it is performing an error is much easier. It’s 2024. Why isn’t this a thing yet?

  13. UR User Preference Panel - Combine passes/permits into expendable list

    Since User Preferences have been introduced into User Reports, solving URs has become much easier. One drawback is that the list can be extremely long if a user has many passes or permits, forcing the input field well off the bottom of the screen. One example found recently has 722 passes, as shown in this video:

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/15iVQMdq9muJoGqItdFZ26Ctx031hu2sY/view?usp=drive_link

    Our suggestion is that passes are combined into one initial entry - "added passes", and there is an option to select it, which opens up the list.

  14. Move RRC and Camera layers to hang under Permanent Hazards

    With the introduction of Permanent Hazards Railroad crossings and Cameras have been moved into the Permanent Hazard menu. It would now make (a lot of) sense to also apply this to the chart layers, to prevent people from wondering why railroad crossings or cameras are greyed out in the menu while they do have the permanent hazard layers checked on. It should be similar to how the Places layer has been restructured.

    Unless it will be merged into the hazards layer of course, then this is redundant.

  15. Giving option to chose if place would be visible on map or not

    Please allow to chose whether place will be visible in application or not.

    Currently places larger then 500m2 are automatically visible, but many times it is easier to map with area than with point. Sometimes points are hardly visible due to color, zoom level etc...

  16. Include "Electronic Fence" as an option on radars.

    In Brazil, several cities are implementing a security system called "Electronic Fencing", whose objective is to monitor city traffic, in addition to detecting stolen vehicles. However, the community has used "Speed Radar" signage to indicate where the electronic fence cameras are located, confusing many day-to-day users, who think it is a speed camera.

  18. message of update request appear clearly when open the app

    in wme when we ask reporter about somethink, only 5% replay, I think there is a problem with people interaction, so it is better to show the users the message directly when open the app

  19. Hazard (Speed ​​bump)

    In France (I don't know if other countries practice the same) we are faced with situations where speed bumps cover an entire intersection. Knowing that the current configuration only allows two-way signaling, I asked myself the question if we could not have the possibility of having the choice on a crossing and cross, a T crossing, a two-way crossing, A >B, B>A. Because if my deduction is correct today to cover such crossings we must put two Hazards so that the announcement is made from all directions of traffic.
    Thanks for reading
