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.

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.

edit geometry/allow saves whilst adding closures
be able to edit geometry of segments that have active closures, as currently to edit geometry (without affecting node id) is to remove closure edit geometry and then re-add closure. as well as that allow the ability to add closures whilst having unsaved edits.

Better UX for WME boxes
Since Firefox hides the scrollbar when it'**** in use, some of the boxes in WME may contain more than the visible lines, but it's not immediate.
For instance, in the suggestion recap box, or in the Add Menu.I'd suggest adding a scrolling shadow, showing a shadow on the top when there is more content on the top and on the bottom when there is more on the bottom.
It comes from a CSS guru, Lea Verou https://lea.verou.me/blog/2012/04/background-attachment-local/I also added the horizontal version and generated a couple of CSS classes I use on the sites I develop: https://codepen.io/massic80/pen/jOQWxNm

Editors' 2do List
Basically having a special context menu or "Editor Report" that will help us remember things to fix once we go into WME. So, this is a communication from production application to WME.
Sometimes we drive and find an error or something that needs to be fixed. so it would be valuable to have a pin, with text or voice notes that would give me details on what to fix so I can go to this list or this special type of reports once I go to WME.
The difference with normal UR's or MP's would be that it will not…

Indicate tunnels in the map
When work in progress associated with the vicinity of tunnels, a clear indication on the map of the tunnel precise location can help identifying if the danger is associated while exiting the tunnel or further away.
This make a huge difference in the attention and help ease the driving.6 votes -
Aviso de aclive/declive acentuado.
Importante colocar aviso de aclive/declive acentuado principalmente em ruas coletoras/arteriais/vias expressas/federais e etc. Poderia ter a função também de o motorista, nas configurações, colocar pra "evitar", nunca mandar ou permitir vias com aclives e declives muito acentuados, e colocar a tonelada(a medida do carro). Deve ser colocado manualmente no Waze Map Editor. Nível 1 podem editar isto. O aviso é oral pelo som de navegação escolhido pelo motorista. Deve ser colocado visualmente também.

Please add sign icons for national and prefectural roads in Japan.
In Japan, there are road signs that show the numbers of national and prefectural roads. All major apps, including Google Maps, support this display, except for Waze, which does not support it.

"Announce Speed Drop" option
A new feature was rolled out recently that automatically announced speed limit changes if the difference in limits was significant. However, I have come across many cases where there's a fast speed limit change that occurs under the announcement threshold, or in cases where announcing the speed limit change would be unnecessary (i.e. turning onto a new street). Similar to how turn instructions are given a dropdown with "waze default," there should be an option to select whether or not a speed limit change is announced on a route. These options should be under the same set of menus for…

WME Editor Saved Config/Settings Profiles
Are there any plans to have a collection of user-defined editing profiles?
This would be similar to the concept of Saved Filters under Issues tab, albeit, in case of config, an editor could create multiple configs, which are basically a subset of options to show/hide various Map Layers.
These should then persist on the server, such that an editor can load them from anywhere on any machine.
The idea is that sometimes an editor may want to turn on/off a bunch of layers, depending on task at hand."

House numbers on unnamed streets
It is currently not possible to create house numbers on unnamed streets. Here in the Czech Republic it is VERY, VERY, VERY common to have unnamed streets in villages. We need to have this option to start any meaningful house number mapping in the region.

Suggest an Edit: Endpoint and junction nodes
New editors can add new roads, suggest changes to segment attributes, and add new geometry nodes for existing roads. But this isn't very useful without being able to:
- Suggest connecting a new or existing segment to an existing segment (making a new junction node)
- Suggest moving or otherwise editing an existing endpoint node
It would be great for Suggest an Edit to fully support editing road geometry, connecting segments, and editing junctions.

Camera Type: Yellow Box
There is locally to me a traffic enforcement camera that ensures a yellow box outside a fire station near a busy junction is kept clear. There is not currently a camera type that is applicable and can be added.

Provide ample time to make an exit if you have to make a choice of right or left exit
Avoid people having to miss their exit because you don’t provide enough time and/or lane guidance ahead of time. Was supposed to go left on an exit that had left/right option and Waze did not tell me ahead of time and almost missed their exit.
