  1. Numero de portas sem a necessidade de nome na rua.

    Talvez liberar a possibilidade de colocar numero de porta sem a necessidade de nome na rua, como por exemplo as ruas de acesso as casa muitas vezes não tem nome dai não tem como adicionar numero

  3. wme - editor profile - viewability?

    hi.

    it would be nice if we could either allow or disallow other users from viewing our editor profile, this is because of safety of where certain editors may try to find where a user lives. (exemptions would be the countries co-ordinators and waze staff).

    thank you.

  4. Add to all places the field “Located in venue”

    The places of the Category "Charging Station" have the field “Located in venue”. The same field should be added to public places of other categories.

  7. Make easier to select segments

    Sometimes we need to do a bulk alteration in several segments, like to change max-speed, directions and so. Although it is possible to select all the street, sometimes, we don't need to change all the segments in the street.
    Also, if a person has some mobility disability or dificulties, it is common they lost their selection of several segments because either clicked in a wrong place or not hold the ctrl key.
    The suggestion is either a creation of a 'Selection mode' that can be activated and allows the user to click in the desired elemnts or a checkbox like…

  8. Allow easier editing of new addresses with homes facing the "wrong way"

    Our development is a cul-de-sac with addresses that won't save in the map editor because the homes are all side-facing. This makes it difficult to share the address with guests if they aren't able to navigate there. Please allow all editors the ability to add their homes to the map.Thanks!

  9. Request to Waze team

    Request to the Waze Team

    Please add a feature to Waze that uses OBD2 to provide vehicle speed pulses. Currently, when entering a tunnel, the vehicle stops on the map, so I would like this feature to ensure accurate navigation within tunnels.

    In Japan, there are interchanges within tunnels, making accurate navigation difficult without this feature. To improve this, please enable the use of an OBD2 connector to provide speed information even within tunnels.

    Additionally, I believe Waze could generate profit by supporting OBD2 and selling Waze-compatible OBD2 devices. It would also be helpful if these OBD2 devices could automatically…

  11. Residential - show closest semgent where the drive will lead

    Hello, there,
    in the new editor v. 2.242 there are no possibility to show the residential names. I have to choose each to be able to see their names. And there is no possibility to show the neariest part of segment where the drive will be lead.
    Is it possible to enable the option to "show residential names" just as it is for POIs and parking places?
    Is it possible to enable "show the closest segment where will be driver navigated"?
    It is pretty needed, because to create the residential is very easy, but if there are more streets around,…

  12. Separators and Decimal Signs per Language

    I noticed that in the Waze Editor, under Trips and Segment Lengths, there is a number where the sign for a decimal is a .
    For example: At 175 kilometers and 300 meters it says: 175.300 km
    In the Netherlands, for example, we use different signs to indicate decimals.
    At 1000 meters we do: 1.000 meters
    At 25 kilometers and 200 meters we do: 25,200 km (or 25.200 meters).

    For example, you see 844 meters for the lengths of segments. If you then click on a segment, it suddenly says 1.340 km. For us in the Netherlands, that is 1340…

  13. Leader board changes

    The leader board ranking should be updated automatically and not the day after.
    The leader board should be split or selectable by points for edits only vs driving.
    This should encourage new editors and let them see that their work reflects in a higher ranking (if they are sensitive for this) which isn't hijacked by people who are only driving.

  16. Drive with your friend(s) or Family

    You can drive with your friends or family if you have a 2 or more vehicle convoy. This means if you loose a convoy member, you can find them on the map, and then set a route. All while your original route stays in a queue. You can also sent your friend(s) or family the route so they can set it up on their phone, car play or android auto.

  18. See Editable Areas and Area Managers when zoomed out

    The layers "Editable Areas" and "Area Managers" are only visible at zoom layers 12 and above.

    It would be helpful to see these layers at larger zoom levels to better understand what areas you can edit, and who the relevant Area Managers are.

  20. Cambiar icono en modo moto

    In Car mode, you can change the icon to another one. But in MOTORCYCLE mode, this is not possible and a very thin motorcycle (2D) appears that blends in with the road and is difficult to see easily when riding a motorcycle.
    You should be able to change to a more visible one, such as the arrow or triangle that stands out more. This way, you will avoid taking your eyes off the road more than necessary.
