  1. Remove 'Reported map issue' from UR description

    This auto generated "Reported map issue" text in the description field isn't adding much value.

    In fact that field is supposed to be extra info from the user..

  2. Send Automatic Reply for when people reply to UR emails

    I thought of this idea where, if a user replies to a UR email, they will automatically get an email back (like an Out-of-Office reply) saying, 'Message not Received, you must click the link in the email to reply to this report'.

    This would hopefully reduce the amount of URs with no replies, and isn't as hard to implement as other ideas.

    Thanks!

  3. Animal on roadside

    I would really like to see the option to report animals on the side of the road (critical for drivers in areas with a large deer population as these animals can become hazards) return to the reporting options. Roadkill would be nice too but I guess “object in road” will do.

  4. Allow speed bumps to be reported from app

    In India, due to the high number of speed bumps in all cities, it is really difficult for the volunteer editors to get to all speed bumps in time.

    It would be really nice to report the speed bumps from the app while driving like a pothole report. Since speed bumps do not vanish immediately, they could stay on the app and then reconfirmed by other Wazers.

    Please also allow it to be reported from app, Car Play and Android Auto as our Wazers are spread all over.

  5. police

    Please reinstate the "Police on Other Side" feature. Reporting speed traps is the most useful reason to report police, and traffic moving in opposite direction will always be better suited to identify and report.

  6. Animals

    Please bring back the option to report animals. Who decided to remove it? I can report gas prices at the press of a button but I can’t alert anyone to Bambi skipping across the road?

  7. Add option allowing your URs to be posted under your username (not anonymoulsy)

    It has been said numerous time that due to private data protections, URs are always posted anonymously.

    However, many editors use the UR system as a mean to "take notes" of problems during a trip, and then will correct deal with those UR when on WME after the trip.

    However, those URs are always marked as anonymous on WME and other editors often start to reply those UR not knowing that those were done by other fellow editors. This leads to a lost of time, since those UR should be considered as "already watched by another editor".

    The proposition is…

  9. Make UR emails replyable

    Like right now there's a couple of reporters that reply to the emails instead of clicking on the links. Would it be possible to create a certain email wildcard that posts what they say in the email onto WME? I've seen this done with other businesses so I don't know why Waze can't do it. For the meantime at least add a banner at the top of the email body stating it's a no reply email and to use the links provided instead.

  10. ANIMALS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD

    BRING BACK THE ABILITY TO REPORT ANIMALS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD!! This was an absolutely poor decision to remove! It’s critical to know when there are deer and other animals!

  11. Police reporting needs to be switched back

    The police reporting system needs to be switched back. Driving along the interstate, I frequently report police sitting on the opposite side of the road. I also report police sitting in the median checking for speeders both ways. The "other side" button needs to return.

    Thanks

  12. Siri Shortcuts for reporting - PLEASE

    How about enabling Siri interaction so users can report things hands-free? “Siri, tell Waze to report police” or “Siri, tell Waze to report a stopped vehicle on the shoulder” would be a lot safer and easier while driving than fumbling with the phone or CarPlay UI. Please consider it.

  13. "Roadkill" is no longer an available option to select when reporting a Hazard! Why?

    Add "Roadkill" back! 1000's of Wazers are asking the same question! Do you not listen to your followers? Geez!

  15. Speed bumps and closed roads in CarPlay

    Currently we report speed bumps as potholes. If we could report them differently, nobody would expect a speed bump to disappear. And you could sell pothole information to local governments for pothole fixing planning.
    I love being able to report closed roads. But I can’t do it using CarPlay. That should be possible, otherwise the app will try to send us again through the same blocked road. Please fix this.

  16. Persistence of Pothole Reports

    Potholes persist until repaired. Pothole reports should persist until consistent replies with “not there”. If the majority of people are confirming, then allow the pothole report to persist (edited from “until someone reports “not there”)

  17. Michigan Potholes - Reporting to Agencies

    In michigan, the state will re-imburse drivers if their vehicle is damaged by a pothote. The only way they will pay is if you can prove the pothole was there for 30 days or more. If I report a pothole on Waze, and waze notifies the state, county or city, responsible for that road of the pothole, then the 30 day days can be substantiated from that time of reporting.
    Or if Waze provided the contact information for the party responsible for that road, then the user could report it themselves.

  18. Add to reporting options

    Please consider adding an addition to the hazard, crashes or traffic jams portion of the reporting...I.e., hazard LEFT shoulder, crash RIGHT lane, RIGHT or LEFT lane closed merge right/left. Today we do not know where the issue is, and this would be super helpful in Miami traffic 😩

  19. Send Pot hole data to government for repair work automatically.

    Standardize pot hole reporting to the government by automatically sending the data from Waze to the proper agency's so they can plan and repair the areas that will have the biggest impact.

  20. Allow longer time to report road closure.

    When I come upon a road closure, I need to avoid emergency vehicles and workers, and be careful of other traffic. Once I get clear of the incident, I try to report it. But by that time, Waze won't let me select the intersection where the problem was. It seems that you must be in the immediate are of the road to report an issue. This often means that I am unable to report road closure issues when I encounter them. Waze should allow a longer time to report closures. (Why is there any limit at all? I may feel…
