Aviso de aprobación de FOTO, LUGAR, ETC, al usuario waze que la reporto.
Sería muy bueno, que los usuarios que reportan FOTOS, LUGARES, ETC y que no lo pueden aprobar por tener un Nivel Bajo, reciban un mensaje automático cuando un usuario superior (Ej. L4, L5, etc) les apruebe dicho reporte. Creo que de esta manera, el usuario estaría viendo que su esfuerzo fue valorado y lo incentivaría a nuevos reportes. Gracias.

update alerts for other side of road
I would like to be able to update alerts on either side of the road as no longer there, not just the side of the road I'm traveling on. Just like how Waze currently asks if a hazard is still there if it's in my traveling direction, it'd be nice to be able to click on a hazard or alert on the opposite side of the road and delete it if it's no longer there or relevant.
Also, what happened to reporting hazards/traffic on the opposite side of the road after this newest android update? It's awful! It needs to immediately be brought back! I don't know whose bright idea it was to remove it, but it really messed things up. I'm CONSTANTLY driving by construction or heavy traffic in the other direction that isn't reported, and I can't!
And when it comes to updating gas prices, I understand the new look of spinning a wheel to the number you want looks really cool, but it's made it so much more tedious. It liked it much better when my numerical keyboard popped up and I could just type in the numbers, not trying to spin a wheel and hopefully get it right. What a pain!
I LOVE Waze! I really do! I don't know what I'd do driving without it! But this newest update is a real PAIN. Sorry. I would love the chance to get 5 mins to suggest changes to the developers (adding speed bump and rail road crossing alerts, being able to report alerts on an intersecting road like you can report road closures on intersecting roads)

Improve ability to report closures on forks and ramps
When reporting road closures in the Waze client, for each road possible to report as closed, you get an X with an arrow pointed down the path to be closed. The problem is if the arrows overlap, you can only press the top most one. This makes reporting ramp closures or closures at a narrow fork impossible. It would be better if when arrows are overlapping, each press cycled between them.

Hazard Acknowledgement
Hazard Acknowledgement:
I meet way too many “out of date" hazards, so this is my suggestion.
On Waze, when a driver is approaching a hazard, a dialog box should appear. In the dialog box it should read: “Hazard still here?” The driver should then have the option to press a “Yes” button or a “No” button.
There should also be a timing and a colour code system. i.e. If the “Yes” button is pressed the clock will reset to zero, the hazard icon will stay/change to red. Other drivers can then click the hazard icon and see that this hazard has just been confirmed by another Waze user a few minutes ago.
If the “No” button is pressed, the hazard icon would change to black to indicate to other Waze users that this hazard may not be present any longer. If the hazard receive say 2 or 3 “No’s” it would then be removed.
Hope you agree :)

Display alternative ETA's at junctions
When I'm driving towards an intersection junction along my route with several route alternatives, I would like a feature that displays hor much longer those alternative route choices are.
Why?
1) My commute has several alternative route choices that differ in meters and seconds.2) The first Waze default route choice is not always best.
3) Sometimes I can plan my route better than Waze, and don't always choose the Waze route.
4) Sometimes I prefer some variety in my daily commute.
5) Sometimes I want to choose a different route just so I can see something different.

Show Road events information in Map view - Plan Route
In the earlier version of Waze this feature was available. With the new update the feature disappeared:
When choosing the best route out of 3 options Waze shows the list of route and the map. In the Map View not it is missing the traffic information!!!!To be able to choose the best route it is totally necessary to see WHERE exactly along the route you should expect traffic.
The list view shows this info somehow, but it is difficult to guess where exactly the road events are just on a simple line. In the Map View, you can easily identify the place on the map, where the road events take place a choose the best rout for you.In the earlier version of Waze this feature was available.

Add favorites from desktop Mac/PC.
Add Desktop access. I find a route on my desktop, I have to send myself a text to add it to Waze. It would be nice if I could access my Waze client so I could both add favorites and manage current addresses on my desktop where I have a full keyboard.

Add angry icon for jumping queue area or activity
As a way to educate drivers who jump / cutting queue. The icon or symbol of angry face is to indicate that we do not condone such behavior. Those who don't like this bad activity can click on the icon and number of clicks will be increased. The symbol can also be used by authority to take action on those bad drivers.

Shipping Locations: Optional Photo
By submitting via a local application, make mandatory the address location of the fill and make sending the photo an optional, because sometimes we have the time and calm to report when we got inside the place, or parked in a location that does not have the ability to send the photo of the facade, or is night, it's raining etc ...
This prevents photos "nothing", interior or wrong.
Thus, passing the place, you could have an option to skip the photo, in the address field, making it mandatory.17 votes -
Text colors
Presently, in turn-by-turn navigation, the distance until the next maneuver is in white an the name of the street/exit where that maneuver is to take place is in blue. The blue text is hard to read against a black background; and since the name of the street/exit is more important than the distance to it (IMO), I recommend switching these colors to show the street/exit name in white (and the distance in blue).

Add divided street option
Waze doesn't differentiate when a street has a median that blocks the ability to get to a destination. Add another option similar to elevation or direction but that requires Waze to navigate to the other driving direction for the street. This would allow editors to update Waze streets without having to split them for the same functionality.

Pin drop report function
EVERY time I have seen a cop I haven't used the Report feature because I'm a mile away by the time I report. Then the report is inaccurate and useless for everyone else.
Make it so I can drive by the cop and then pull out my phone and place a pin on the location wjere the report should actually be. I understand your worried about people abusing and reporting thing across town so then only allow someone to report and pin drop something within 1/5mile?17 votes -
Dynamic reporting buttons
It would be great to have the report buttons to
dynamically reorder according to highest usage. This could be on a per person or per region or all Waze basis.
I personally use the construction, vehicle stopped, and police reports the most.Preselect most commonly used options (e.g. type of hazard)
Dynamically create favourite buttons at the front of the list for the user's most commonly made reports.

Add the "Premium" type of gas, so we can update/inform the price of that too.
Here in Brazil we have the "Premium" type of gas too. Adding this type of gas would be nice, so we could track prices for it.
