1. 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 the search list, duplicate places could be highlighted with a different color to indicate they have already been added.

   Issue 2:
   Often, the first result in the list when adding a place is not the correct one. It could be a branch, located in a different neighborhood, city, or even state, leading to incorrect links and misdirecting drivers.

   Solution 2:
   Sort search results by proximity to the place's coordinates. Additionally, when hovering over a result, the map should visually highlight the exact location of the place (a feature previously available in PIE).

   Issue 3:
   WME allows the same Google place to be linked to multiple Waze places. It’s unclear how Waze determines the correct location for the end user, but this behavior should clearly be avoided.

   Solution 3:
   Prevent a Google place from being linked to more than one Waze place. In the search list, hovering over a linked Google place should indicate which Waze place it is already associated with.

   Additional Suggestion:
   Instead of relying solely on lists for links, WME could include a new layer that displays Google places directly on the map. To link a place, users would only need to click on it.

   Building on this idea, WME could allow updating the PIN of Google places directly within the tool, eliminating the need to open Google Maps to request PIN corrections.

2. 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?

3. 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.

4. 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!

5. Request to Create an Official Georgian (Georgia) Waze Community

   Hello Waze Team and Community,

   I would like to kindly request the creation of an official Georgian (Georgia) Waze community and forum section.

   Currently, there is no dedicated Georgian Waze community or local forum. As a result, Georgia does not have active local editors who can regularly review, approve, or manage map edits. This causes many map issues, delayed updates, and incorrect information to remain unresolved for a long time.

   There are editors who edit the region partially or irregularly, but there is no active local Georgian editor who can coordinate improvements, support new editors, or maintain map quality consistently.

   Creating an official Georgian community would:
   • Help organize and support local editors
   • Improve communication and coordination
   • Speed up map updates and approvals
   • Significantly improve map accuracy and navigation quality in Georgia

   Since a Georgian forum does not exist, I am posting this request in the global forum.

   Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I truly believe that an official Georgian Waze community would greatly benefit both users and the platform.

   Kind regards,
   Niccolo

6. 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.

9. School districts input feed for updating their annual schedule and hours of operation changes

   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.
   
   Recommend getting a special feed set up so school districts can update them.

    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.

13. 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.

14. 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 be sure to follow the same path/direction as the leader.
    Within the MAP View the 5 other Wazers would be visible as small icons on the map( depending on zoom)
    Each wazer would see the path/route to the "Leader" as default (top of the list), but could select any member of the "convoy" if needed (perhaps they are lost or have an issue) which would then display a path/route to that wazer.

    I could see this being used by casual users, clubs & prefessional organisations.
    Cheers.

17. 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,

19. 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.

20. Request to restore Red color for Speed and Red Light Camera pop-up banners.

    Subject: Request to restore Red color for Speed and Red Light Camera pop-up banners.
    Message:
    I am writing to provide feedback regarding the recent change to the pop-up warning banners for speed and red light cameras. These alerts were previously Red but have recently changed to a dark gray/black color in Night/Dark mode.
    I strongly urge you to revert these alerts back to Red for the following safety reasons based on driving psychology and neuroscience:
    Visual Saliency (The "Pop-Out" Effect): Studies show that the human brain has a "Saliency Map" that scans for high-priority colors. Red triggers stronger gamma-band oscillations in the visual cortex than any other color, making it the most effective color for alerting a driver who is focused on the road.
    Exogenous Attentional Capture: While driving, my primary focus (central vision) is on the road. A dark-colored banner blends into the interface. A Red banner, however, utilizes peripheral awareness to "capture" attention automatically. This allows the brain to recognize a hazard or alert without the driver needing to take their eyes off the road to "search" for the information.
    Night Vision Safety: In dark mode, low-contrast dark banners are easily missed. Red is universally recognized as a "stop" or "danger" signal and provides the necessary contrast to ensure the driver is alerted instantly.
    Restoring the red color will improve response times and overall driver safety. Thank you for considering this research-backed improvement.
