Layer toggling keyboard shortcut for Hazards
There are some discrepancies between the shortcuts and the actual Layer menu when it comes to Hazards. Currently, there are shortcuts to toggle Speed cameras and Railroad crossings only.
However, there are other Hazards with more frequent instances on the map that could also benefit from keyboard shortcuts. In my opinion, a single toggle for the entire Hazards section would be sufficient. Nonetheless, I'd welcome additional individual toggles along with the general one.

Mark gas station brands as "Top Tier"
When refueling, many drivers are much more interested in fuel quality than in the specific brand. But at present, the Waze gas-station finder offers no means to limit searches by fuel quality.
Waze can solve this problem by supporting the identification of brands selling "Top Tier" gasoline. "Top Tier" is a consortium of vehicle manufacturers that approves certain gasoline brands as preferred for their engine designs (toptiergas.com).
"Top Tier" designation is associated with all stations selling certain brands and not with any individual station. I'm not sure what mechanism to suggest for Waze to support editing a brand-wide feature like…

The Speed Limit Icon is difficult to be seen. It could be same size as the Actual Speed Icon size.
I'm 69 Y/O My car (Audi Q5) has a small Apple Car Play screen. The Speed Limit Icon (Square White and Black) is difficult to be seen. Its size is to small. It could have the same size of the Actual Speed Icon (Round Black and red). The map allouds to bear a little bit bigger the Sped Limit Icon. IS it possible to increase it? Thank you for your support.

Issue Tracker Saved Filter: Should be able to modify/edit an already saved filter
I should be able to modify or edit an already saved search.
When saving a new filter, a dropdown of saved searches should be displayed, and if one is selected, an overwrite warning should appear. This should be alongside a "create new filter" option.

Add general destination information to URs
URs have been improved by adding more information in WME 2.206, and it would be nice to continue to add information that doesn't jeopardize the privacy of the reporter.
My idea would be to add information on how the stop point of a user's route was obtained - whether it be a house number, house number interpolation, RPP, Google address, Waze place, Google place, etc. Specifics on the geographic location wouldn't be needed, it would just be very beneficial to know how the stop point was chosen. We get a lot of URs complaining about navigation ending at the wrong…

Issue Tracker: better filtering of Map Suggestions
In the issue tracker, we can filter Map Suggestions by status: Open, Closed, or All, with a few subcategories under Closed. However, "Open" suggestions include (a) suggestions with status "Lapsed" and (b) suggestions that can't be accepted or rejected because "Change already applied to the map." Please add filters that would allow us to exclude (a) and/or (b) from the Open category.

rerouting
n the city of arlington, texas today 6/11 at 11 am, the waze app failed to reroute thousands of drivers when the train broke down stranding thousands of drivers. Drivers should have been rerouted to 360 or to one of the 2 overpasses/
2 over passes exist , 1 at the police station and one at division street. Why did the programmers not know this? thanks1 vote -

Flagging matches with permanently closed venues
With the "Enhanced Matching" between Waze and Google venues going live, some Waze venues are matched with 'Permanently closed' place from Google Maps.
While these are accurate matches, we won't know these places are permanently closed until an editor interacts with the place or a user reports it to us.
My suggestion is to flag such matches to be reviewed by editors. A PUR or something like that.

Allow to default sort the searches by distance
when searching for a place such as "costco" for example, allow your searches to always search by distance from route if already in a drive, or distance from the current location if not in a drive already.

Please allow font size change. Letters are too small now.
I think font is too small, and requires taking eyes off road to focus on letters - a safety issue. You can with Google Maps by changing phone settings, but this doesn't work with Waze. I prefer using Waze over G Maps. Please consider adding this option.

Ubicación de lugar turístico mal indicado en el mapa
Buenas tardes. Hay una ubicación mal indicada en la app. Es Pan y Oliva de Zuelo en Mendoza, Argentina. La ubicación está cerca pero lleva a un lugar donde la ruta es intransitable en días lluviosos y tenemos problemas con los turistas que se desvían usando waze.
La dirección exacta es Ruta Provincial nro 33, km 7,5. Fray Luis Beltrán, Maipú, Mendoza, Argentina. Utilicé la app para llegar a esta dirección esta mañana, ya que es el lugar donde trabajo y al ingresar a la Finca el mapa de Waze no marca ninguna calle.
Puedo dar como referencia la ubicación…1 vote -
Default new users in US and UK to Imperial units
Since the wonderful new Edit Suggestions tool has been released, we have seen many (too many) suggestions from well-meaning users in the US to change speed limits to values like 16 or 31 mph. Obviously these users were set by default to use metric units without realizing it.
If a user tries to edit using the WME for the first time in a country that uses Imperial speed limits (which I believe is only the US, UK, Anguilla, Antigua, Barbados, and the Cayman Islands), their units should automatically be set to Imperial by default.
53 votesGreat timing! We're currently working on defaulting new users in the US and UK to Imperial units. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.
