2. 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.

3. Toll roads

   If user could use settings to set something like "use toll roads if it shortens the time on the road for at least XX minutes" or "use toll road if fuel economy if more then $XX". Waze gives us multiple routs from A to B, sometimes it is better to use toll road, sometimes it cuts only about 5-6 minutes from the trip (or less) - still not the reason to use toll road, too expensive for this outcome. But sometimes toll road is way better, so we don't want to forbid waze to suggest us toll-roads. I think you have all the data and tools you need to make this feature possible.

4. Show bridge height

   Not once, I've heard of trucks getting into accidents by hitting a bridge that is too low to the vehicles height.
   Why not display the bridges on the route and their height to prevent those type of accidents?

5. Add a "Remember this Route" feature. WAZE should allow me to press a button to begin a route and another button to end the route.

   Add a "Remember this Route" feature. WAZE should allow me to press a button to begin a route and another button to end the route. I should be able to save this route as a favorite.
   I don't want Waze to try to optimize my route or change my route in any way.

7. Open up Waze to developers so we get third party plugins!

   Would be amazing if Waze allowed other developers to integrate their software AND hardware to use with Waze.

   Escort radar has their own app where if you hold a button on their radar detector, it'd report it on their cloud to other Escort users that a police is spotted.

   However, having to have two apps loaded at a time makes it very difficult to catch alerts from both apps at the same time. Opening up an SDK or API on Waze and allowing other companies and developers to integrate with Waze would allow Waze to dominate the industry.

   With this feature, developers can create third party features such as:
   - Integration with Escort Live! Show radar threats and police reported by Escort
   - Integration with Torque App to warn when car is having engine problems.
   - Speed Limit overlay display from third party database
   - New custom marker location types on the map such as: 'special event', 'foreign embassy', 'bus stop', 'sun glare', etc.
   - Mileage Log, map / gps logger.

   Opening up Waze to developers would greatly reduce overhead on Waze developers, it can allow other apps to report threats, and is a really good idea. I hope it can be implemented. I know abuse can be problematic but that's why users would have to opt-in to plugins.

8. Calculate ETA based on own average speed

   ETA calculation seems to be based on traffic conditions and general average speed. ETA calculation seems to be inaccurate when driving below the average speed of the road-segment as it keeps increasing while driving with constant (low) speed.

   It would be great if ETA calculation would also be accurate for vehicles going below average speeds (e.g. trucks in europe etc.)

9. Display interstate/highway shields on client map.

   Right now the live maps can display highway shields with limited functionality. Adding this ability to the client maps (and expanding its scope, as right now it is only partially functional) would really make it easier to orient yourself when viewing the map.

   It would be nice if it was an option, as well... so you could disable it (like you can disable road goodies or other things) if you don't want to view them.

10. Improved Google Assistant Integration on Android Auto

    The overall issue with Waze seems to be that the phone app is better built than the Android Auto app, which wouldn't be a problem were it not for the fact that it has led to borderline non-existent communication between the Android Auto version of the Google Assistant and the Android Auto Waze app. This problem leads to two main issues: drivers can't report hazards without taking one of their hands off the wheel and their eyes off the road unless they have a passenger on board, and if the driver uses the Google Assistant to ask for directions the assistant will pass the location onto Waze but then Waze forces the driver to use the touch screen to confirm that the location is correct. This to me is ridiculous, especially since Google now owns Waze. Put simply, Waze and the Google Assistant on Android Auto need to communicate with each other a lot better than they currently do.

12. Add "avoid border crossings" setting, just like avoid toll roads or ferries.

    Navigating from New York to Detroit, there's a route that crosses through Canada. I didn't bring my passport and wish to avoid this, but if I manually force another route, I might miss out on traffic-responsive optimizations. It should be possible to avoid border crossings just like any other route preference.

14. Suppress public parking lots unless the destination does not have the "Customer Parking" box checked

15. Show border line on map

    Since the corona virus crossing borders in Europe isn't that easy as before. So it would be nice if I could see the border line clearly on the map. A thick red line for example (like google maps) or something similar would be neat.

    It also makes things easier to navigatie if you know whether you entering a different country when planning your route. In Europe, this sometimes could be the case.

20. Enable the Difficult Turn setting to be time/day specific

    Today we have the ability to mark a turn as difficult, but we don't have a way to say it is only difficult during certain times of the day like during commute hours, or even to be only weekdays when there is commute traffic.

    The current UI could easily be updated to move the difficult turn box to the end of each row for the restriction. That way if an editor sets up a time for a restriction, it now becomes an option to be 100% restricted, or just difficult.

    The editor could then set up a left turn being illegal to turn from 15:00 to 18:00, difficult to turn from 8:00 - 15:00, difficult to turn from 18:00 - 20:00, but fine all other times because it is only the traffic that is an issue.

    Also, currently there is no way to limit the difficult turn to weekdays and not include weekends when many difficult turns are abandoned with no weekend traffic at the level of weekdays.

    I have posted a mockup of this idea in the Waze forum under the title "Enable the Difficult Turn setting to be time/day specific"
