New Functions for Linking External Provider Locations (Google Pin)
In the past, the WME PIE Script provided a valuable feature that allowed us to directly view the exact location of a place on Google Maps overlaid on the Waze map. Recently, this functionality was removed at Waze's request.
Most editors, including myself, consider this feature essential. Taking this opportunity, I suggest we request improvements to this linking tool. Below are some current issues and proposed solutions:
Issue 1:
Currently, WME allows the same CID to be added multiple times to the same place. This creates disorganization in the links.Solution 1:
Block duplicate additions of the same place. In…133 votes -
Temporary private roads <-> RTC
Concerning roadworks, city nowadays more and more define areas around the closed roads as temporary private roads to route traffic around the closed areas. Now we have no there solution but to close those roads also, but this results in many URs stating that the roads are not closed for the inhabitants or customers of the businesses located there. Would it be possible to create a sort of RTP (Realtime Private road) like the closures we have now?

Set Waze as default iOS navigation app [iOS 18.4/EU only]
In the EU, Apple has finally made it possible to set a default navigation app in iOS 18.4.
Unfortunately, Waze has not yet implemented this feature.
You can find the new option in iOS 18.4 under Settings -> Apps -> Default apps -> Navigation
This is what it looks like: https://ibb.co/wNHBspGN
It would be really great to finally have the option on iOS to open addresses directly without having to copy and paste them manually into Waze, for example.

Bring back Friends feature
Friends feature was a great feature and we would like to get it back. As mentioned on multiple conferences it was a "thing" in Waze which was diffenret in Waze app, it was something close to gamification and it was bringing users to the app.
Tkanks for every vote!

Friend feature was removed to make some place for Carpool - that was said by Waze many times. Now, Carpool is dead and Google is trying to implement Friends feature - that's why we would like to have it back!

fuel prices by payment method (cash vs credit)
In Israel, many fuel stations have different prices depending on the payment method (cash vs credit card).
Currently, Waze allows entering only one fuel price per station, which often leads to misleading or incorrect information for drivers.
Please add support to enter (and search) separate fuel prices by payment method
This would significantly improve price accuracy and user trust, especially in regions where payment-based pricing is common.2 votes -

Since some school districts can have 85 or more zones and many states have over 20 counties ; managing the school holiday and time schedules can be a very big task.

Make the electric car pop-up optional
The electric car pop up shows every time I am putting in an address to go to. I don’t have an electric car and many others don’t as well. This pop-up should be removed and put under settings a person with an electric car can turn that feature on.

From WME chance to see previous Street View footage
Currently, only the latest Street View shot can be seen from WME.
It would be interesting to add a button that allows you to switch to previous Street View shots (a bit like you can do on Google Maps).
In this case, it would be very useful to see how a street changes, or, for example, if a building is covered by a construction site, it would be possible to go back to previous shots to be able to see the house numbers covered by the construction site.11 votes -
Convoy
Convoy Feature
A set of features to allow a group of travellers to monitor/follow each other via the Waze App. Many holiday makers, but also clubs & professional organisations often need to travel together, and need to be able to track & monitor that the "convoy" members remain together, and is up to date on the latest location, destination, as & when things may change or issues may arise.
Up to 6 Wazers can enable "participation" (location sharing) with a "Leader" that would invite them to join a "convoy".
Each Wazer can then see/monitor the other vehicles & leader, and…2 votes -

Lower Waze's Age Rating on Apple App Store
Hello Waze Support Team,
I'm writing to suggest that you consider lowering Waze's age rating on the Apple App Store. Currently, Waze is rated 17+, while Google Maps is rated 4+.
Many young drivers and passengers could benefit from using Waze's features, such as real-time traffic updates and hazard alerts. A lower age rating would make the app more accessible to this demographic.
Could you please provide some insight into why the app has a 17+ rating and if there are any plans to re-evaluate it?
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best regards,

Adding an exemption pass for Blackwall and Silvertown tunnels When you have disable badge
When you have a disable badge you can apply for congestion charge exemption. This is already a pass on the app you can add. However, this also allows you to go through Blackwall tunnel and Silvertown tunnel for free. So adding this exception should be updated. Since it always defaults to going over dartford bridge.

Fuel / Trip Tracker
Waze already does an excellent job with navigation and fuel price awareness, but adding a built-in Fuel and Trip Tracker would make it even more powerful for everyday drivers. Being able to log fuel-ups directly in the app, including litres, cost, and odometer readings, would allow Waze to automatically calculate fuel consumption, cost per kilometre, and running averages over time.
A simple trip tracking feature would also be hugely valuable. Drivers could start and end trips with a single tap, tag them as work, personal, or road trips, and receive an automatic summary showing distance, duration, and estimated fuel usage.…

Create a Partner Data Feed for GIS-based Street Sign Inventory
Many municipalities are importing/moving their street sign inventory into their GIS system. Since many Waze map attributes are based on visible street signs (speed limits, one-way streets, turn restrictions, school zones, street names, etc.), it makes sense to allow municipalities to upload their sign locations and have some koi-fish-style validation of those signs against the existing Waze attributes.
For the initial upload, where signs differ from the Waze attribute, Map Issues or Map Suggestions could be created to have WME editors verify the differences and make any necessary corrections.
On an ongoing basis, as new signs are posted and the…
