  1. WME specific report types

    Waze map editors can access a wider range of report types on the Waze app, including speed bumps. These reports are listed with their corresponding locations on the Waze map editor website, allowing editors to accurately add speed bumps where they were reported. Other report types include speed cameras, tollbooths, sharp curves, new places, and more.

  2. Disable street name popups on the map when using Apple CarPlay?

    I have a problem with the map when using Apple CarPlay. The car's display shows constantly changing large, annoying blocks (popups) with street names. Those blocks often fall over critical parts of the map I'm just driving to. That's why I can't see where I need to go on the map. For example, an upcoming intersection will be completely covered. I use the map with the setting to always keep north at the top (just in case that makes a difference).
    My proposal is to create an option in the settings to enable and disable these blocks. This makes the…

  3. Enable smooth, kinetic panning of the map when using keyboard keys, disable for when using a mouse

    When using keyboard keys to pan the map, the map chops in the desired direction. This should be a smooth, kinetic movement. When using a mouse, the map will sometime move with kinetic movement if the mouse is in motion when the drag-click is released. This should be an option that can be enabled or disabled by the editor as a preference.

  5. Offline Downloads by state

    Google maps let's you download offline maps by area but I think if a offline map feature was added it should be by state because it would be convenient for people doing long cross country road trips.

  6. Ai integration

    Using Google's Gemini it could predict potential traffic based on wether conditions saying that this route will be faster because it's going to rain in 5 minutes and traffic will emerge badly. Or a more intelligent rerouting system that ai thinks is best. Or a ai road assistant for spastic questions like: find me the nearest gym that's not packed right now. Or find me food nearby without wait times.

  7. Add keyboard shortcuts for handling of URs

    Another suggestion related to "mark as solved" and "mask as non identified" actions is now in the backlog.
    Those actions are frequently made when handling URs, and would deserve shortcuts:
    - "Send" (sending a comment)
    - selecting the comment area (allowing to start typing a comment)
    - closing the window of the UR (perhaps via the ESC key)

  9. When adding hazards, log GPS coordinates when click on the yellow triangle

    At the moment, the location of a hazard is logged when the final tap is made (i.e. Hazard > Hazard > Vehicle on shoulder) - can the location not be changed so that it's logged when the first tap is made on the hazard triangle - it will make locations of hazards more accurate as now it can be half a mile down the road by the time the final tap is made...

  12. Aviso radares sin llegar a la velocidad límite

    El aviso de radares solo avisa si superas la velocidad del mismo. Eso puede provocar que te coja el radar, si en ese momento estas en un adelantamiento y no te has dado cuenta. Por lo que sería interesante que cuando te arpoximes a un radar se escuche algún sonido, un pitido o algo similar, aunque no estés superando la velocidad límite.

  13. Funcionamiento en Android Auto sin Satélites GPS

    Cuando usas Waze en Android Auto, puede usar la información del vehículo para saber la ubicación cuando no hay gps disponibles como un tunes. Por ejemplo en Madrid, la carretera M30 Tiene muchos km bajo tierra donde no se pueden usar los SATÉLITES, por lo que una vez entras en la M30 Waze se pierde y no sabe donde estás, por lo que no te avisa de salidas, radares ni nada más. Sería interesante que al igual que otros GPS usara la velocidad del vehículo y la trayectoria por el volante para calcular la ruta que hace el vehículo y…

  15. Distância até a proxima cidade

    Durante o percurso de uma rota longa, seria útil se junto a disância até o destino, também fosse informada a distância até a próxima cidade. Isso com o objetivo de ajudar o condutor a se programar para abastecimentos, alimentação ou hospedagem.

  16. 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…

  19. Add a gradient border to Editing Areas based on age.

    For lower rank editors and those that tend to travel, it would be helpful to add a 1-3 pixel gradient border, likely at a 50% transparency level around each editing area based on the age of the area. I propose the gradient go from green to red for expiring edit areas and 50% grey for any LAM/AM areas for differentiation.

    I know that it would be beneficial for me to have that visual representation as I patrol the EA in WME that I gain each Northern Hemisphere summer that I drive around the USA.

  20. Have small arrows on the road

    The same way when you’re on the highway you have an arrow indicating a Lane, would be great if you had this option on all streets, (have multiple arrows, each resembling amount of lanes on private roads and highways in those directions) at the same time would need to make the app available to be zoomed in a little bit more, see those smaller details, and it could and will be a big help in certain scenarios. For example: if someone was never in a certain city, and pulling up to a street where it has a turning lane, lane…
