  1. Event Announcements

    Currently, event announcements remain displayed even after the event has ended.
    Unless they are deleted manually, they stay on the screen and make it difficult to view new announcements.

    Therefore, I would like to request the addition of a feature that automatically deletes event announcements once they have ended.

  2. Update UR editor reply email

    Below is the email Waze currently sends when an editor replies to a UR reporter:

    Subject: A comment on a map issue you reported

    Hi <Reporter Username>,

  3. Pontos de recarga de carros elétricos

    O waze poderia mostrar pontos de recarga elétrica veicular em seus mapas, cada vez mais aumenta o numero de pontos de recarga e a venda de veículos híbridos e elétricos, e nesse ponto indicaria qtd de pontos e a potência do carregador, dando a opção de colocar o preço do KW.

  5. Better gas station search

    Currently when on a drive and I hit the gas station icon it searches along my route but will give me options that are over 100miles away. Usually when I go to search I want to find one soon and much closer. Also the gas prices that are listed on there and marked as updated same day have been very wrong. They need to get picture confirmation to ensure people are entering in the wrong amounts.

  6. Add neighborhoods to places

    Many cities have stores with many locations around the city. These can be hard to distinguish in Waze, since people might not be familiar with the specific street name, and some countries have many streets with no name or similar names. Just as places are assigned to cities, it should also be possible to assign them to a neighborhood (defined based on community guidelines), so it's easier to find and identify places.

    A recent feature allows for neighborhoods from Google to appear in search results, but this request is to define and manage neighborhood areas directly in the WME, either…

  7. Import Addresses for route optimization

    Route4Me just lost functionality so Waze has an opportunity here... especially if you want to offer individuals a free plan but then sell to corporations a route optimization tool for their field reps/drivers.
    I used that app for 5 years and was able to import an excel file with my client addresses, they now shut off that option for individuals and you can only access it from a corporate account.

    Basically if I have 10 clients on excel I need to go to today, I want to be able to import that into Waze, and then Waze will "optimize" the…

  8. Allow users/editors to upload a picture for a poi from device/WME rather than take a photo on the place from car.

    My suggestion is the following feature: Allow users and editors to upload photos from their phone’s gallery (taken before or after visiting a place) rather than only allowing “instant” photos taken from car from a really bad angle.
    My suggestion solves this problem: Many current POI photos are low-quality or taken from bad angles because they are often snapped quickly while in transit. Allowing gallery uploads would result in better, more helpful photos that accurately describe a location’s surroundings.
    In more words: Finding specific points, like a package delivery locker (automat), can be difficult without clear visual clues. I suggest

  10. Light to Dark mode transitions

    Introduce a fading transition between light and dark modes at sunrise and sunset. Replacing the instant switch with a slow transition prevents visual shock and makes the navigation experience much smoother for nighttime drivers. To make the transition more realistic, I suggest adding a warm yellow/amber tint that gradually overlays the map as it shifts into the darker blue/navy of Night Mode. This mimics the natural 'Atmospheric Scattering' seen at sunset, making the visual change feel organic rather than digital.

  11. To have a certain classification of road/highway to have a connection with at or higher highway classification

    Some roads on Waze have highway classifications that do not continue. For example, a road close to me has a minor highway classification; when it reaches a round-about, it loses that classification, but in all directions, that classification does not have a connection. These roads should have its particular classification end at another road with the same or higher classification.

  13. Editors who have several edits for review and are accepted or rejected to view which one of their edits was either accepted or rejected.

    I have several edits subject for review. Some of them have been reviewed, but it won't tell me which edit was reviewed. We should have an option to view which of those edits was reviewed and the option to chat with the person who reviewed it for questions about their decision.

  14. WME - Requests window blocking city/country - shift it couple pixels down?

    Hello,

    Check out screenshot:
    https://i.imgur.com/zrA1Hly.png

    Each time you are dealing with user reports or any kind of reports it's blocking city name.
    When you close to report, you need to search for it again and again on the main list.

    Would be good that we can see city name while working on reports.

  17. Switch editor profile ROW/IL/NA

    When an editor makes changes and we want to see what was done (usually flagged in the high volume report), senior editors will often check the editor profile. If that editor is from another environment (ROW visitor to NA, etc), and their last edits were in the home environment, we have no way to see what edits were made in our environment.

    Please add an ability to change the edit history per environment. This could be a drop down on the environment currently displayed, or adding an environment option to the URL (env=usa).

  20. Color scheme

    On highways the exit matters a lot not being able to read an exit because of the color scheme used by waze make us skip the exit and go to next exit. Surprisingly not always but sometimes the color for exits is white letters with yellow/ orange background which makes it hard to read especially at night.
    Kindly stick to black letters on bule background or something thing similar to help read the exit sign
    Thanks a lot
    May be you can add an option to pick your own colour scheme that may help choose the display colour what they…
