  1. Thanks

    Probleme avec la map, a chaque fois que je signal qqch, je ne vois plus mon kilométrage, le temps quil me reste à faire, ca ne fait que dire merci d'avoir signaler. Jme fiche du merci, jveux avoir mes info! Vraiment désagréable, je dois fermer et reouvrir l'application, et renvoyer mon itinéraire a chaque personne concernée. On s'entend que ce ne devrait pas être, surtout sur la route! Tres désagréable!

    Le remerciement ne devrait pas exister, ou si vous y tenez, inscrivez le ailleurs pour ne pas empêcher de voir les données de navigation

  2. Use URL to add external provider

    Sometimes WME fails to locate a right matching place from Google Maps, but the place can be found with Google search engine. As a solution I suggest to enable WME to assign a matching place also by a known URL from Google Maps.

  3. UR Menu - tooltip

    The UR menu breaks off URs with a long category. This has the effect that you cannot see in the menu when it was last updated, and you have to open the UR for that. So I suggest to make a tooltip for those URs, or alternatively make it 2 lines instead of one.

  4. Resumen de viaje

    Sería muy útil que al final de cada viaje aparezca un resumen con la distancia recorrida, el tiempo de viaje total, la velocidad máxima y la velocidad promedio del viaje. Dado que con frecuencia repetimos los viajes, p.e. de la casa al trabajo y la ruta inversa, también podría incluir un comparativo de distancia y tiempo para esa ruta.

  5. Colocar acceso directo a botón(es) para la creación de lugares

    Crear unos botones de acceso directo para crear rápidamente lugares/puntos, y no tener que esta abriendo el menú contextual para cada creación, tambien el sistema a veces no guarda los nombres de los lugares y queda en blanco, si al sistema se le pudiera agregar que detecte cuando ocurre eso y envie un aviso o ponga el "pin" con rojo o algún color único para ubicarlo mientras editamos, gracias.

  6. Turn openings (temporary green arrow)

    I loved "turn closures", but now I see the need to have "turn openings".

    For example, a left turn is usually prohibited (red arrow). However, due to an event occurring on the next block, this left turn is temporarily allowed (green arrow) for a few hours on a specific day.

    This is a common situation and, depending on the location, can save a lot of time by avoiding an unnecessary detour of several kilometers.

    ]bz2012 ⑤ AM La: There is a problem I keep encountering: "accessable parking" is NOT allowed except for 'parking lot' places but many places try to add the feature on non parking lot locations.

    It should really be allowed anywhere customer parking is allowed.

  9. Dead End Signs

    Very important to have a dead end sign on the map before heading down that street, since many times waze will recommend certain roads even though it’s a dead end. Hope this was helpful and becomes a feature. Thank you.

  10. Road shields, ability to add different sign as override to the major one used for that street name

    In Finland, we currently have named roads as "180 - Saaristotie" etc. and would like to get rid of the number in street name and just leave the shield. But that is not possible because we have quite a few locations where road number changes while road name stays the same. Another problem is when road category changes to minor road so that the number drops off completely.

    So there is a need for feature where you could set an override shield to selected segments while the default sign for that road name stays active on other segments.

  13. Move Previous Build Button

    The small bar with tile build information moves and sometimes covers elements as different parts of WME are accessed. With the exception of my phone in landscape orientation, there seems to be an excessive amount of extra space on the tile bar. My suggestion is to move it to the tile bar on the left, near the settings button.

  14. Third Lane Ahead Warning for Drivers in BRAZIL

    I would like to suggest that Waze use a notification on Brazilian roads, similar to the ones already in place for speed bumps and potholes, to indicate the presence of a third lane on highways.

    This would be very helpful since many roads in Brazil do not have dual lanes, and when a third lane does appear, it is extremely useful for all drivers.

    Additionally, this notification could help reduce overtaking, as drivers would be warned in advance about the third lane ahead, allowing them to avoid unnecessary overtakes, thus reducing the risk of accidents.

  18. Enhancing Waze with User-Contributed Neighborhood Names

    As an avid user of Waze, I've experienced firsthand the convenience and efficiency this remarkable app offers. From navigating traffic congestion to discovering new routes, Waze has revolutionized the way we travel. However, there's always room for improvement, and I believe one feature that could significantly enhance the app is the ability for members to add neighborhood names to city maps.

    Why This Feature Matters:

    Local Insights: Who better to accurately name and define neighborhoods than the residents themselves? By allowing users to contribute neighborhood names, Waze can tap into local knowledge, ensuring that the app reflects the true identity…

  19. Message from a user reporting the end of a closure, does not indicate the location

    As a map editor, we can sometimes insert numerous closures in one day, due to construction or traffic events.
    When a user reports that a closure is no longer active, I, as the editor who created it, receive a message in my application. However, this message only indicates the information that the user reported. Example: “This road is not closed”
    This does not provide additional information, such as the name of the road or even the location’s PL. If I create a lot of closures, I can’t identify which location it is.

  20. Move Ferry, Railroad and Runway/Taxiway road types away from road type fast selection buttons

    Those mentioned road types are about as rarely needed as the walking trail so moving those away from the normal road type selection buttons would be reasonable, there's no sense to keep those there. Maybe make submenu of those + Walking trail to that part of Unify Action Area?

    This would have 2 benefits, it saves a little more of that limited space on left panel and also it helps to prevent accidental clicks which change road type and may go unnoticed when editor hits Save.
