Highlight or add areas that have GPS traces without a Waze segment
To identify natively within WME to access areas where the GPS points clearly identify that the road is now constructed and ready for use but Waze doesn't have a segment at this location.
WME/Waze could highlight this to us on the WME feed or as a separate sheets file or any other method where GPS traces are present but no segment under?
This will be the highest confidence that the road exists in real life and editors can focus on it.
GPS Traces are not supported currently by the WME SDK also so we can't script our way through identifying…

Profile statistics
Simply add all the statistics on the WME profile.
- Permanent hazards
- Junction Boxes
- RPP
- Radar
- ...
Today these are rather global statistics that could be more exhaustive

Allow residential places to be moved farther from their "parent" street
Currently, it is generally not possible to create a RPP at, or move an existing one to, a location more than (approximately) 550 m from a segment that has the same street name as the RPP. However, in rural areas of the United States, it is not unheard-of for houses to be located much farther than that from the nearest road. Suggestion: increase the allowed distance for RPPs to at least 1,500 m (no objection if this would require a higher editing level to accomplish than the default R1 for creating an RPP).

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."

"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…

Unit of measurement according to the location/country.
It would be advisable for the unit of measurement of each country to be respected according to the region/location of the account. For example, in Brazil, KPH is used instead of MPH. It would be appropriate for the unit of measurement to correspond to the location where the editing is performed.

Allow one School Zone Polygon to Overlap, without creating multiple Polygons
Now we can overlap different polygons over each other, but if we create one Polygon for a school most of the times this Polygon has to go over itselft to cover the whole School zone, unfortunately if you go over the same polygon this will have a conflict and the area where is overlapping opens up, not allowing for the same polygon to overlap, so right now we have to bring part of the polygon very close to the other part and then extend the other side to the School sign without overlapping. this will allows us to created a…

Mytery drive
You know how some people like to go for a Sunday ride? We'll this app would be for you.
A map app that you could put in where you are, how long you want to drive, maybe what kind of things you to see. And it would give you some options of drives and you could pick one. They would be different kinds like staying off highways, or include them. Ways maybe you wouldn't think of going. You wouldn't have to have a destination. It could be just a circle back to your house or to a destination with different…3 votes -
Polygons in WME should just be a thick border instead of a full fill
To allow for easier interaction with polygons and segments & places inside polygons, change the polygons to be a thick border instead of it being a filled polygon.
With the expansion of features that include many polygons beyond just places (JBs, Permanent Hazards, Natural features, etc), it would make it much easier to work with these shapes.OpenStreetMap does this very well.

Ability to create an Update Request on a Permanent Hazard segment
AS a Waze Editor Level 2, I'd like to be able to propose Update Requests on segments of any lock level that have a permanent hazzard like a speed bump. Actually it is not able to be done.

WME Feed customise by country
WME Default loading is launching with feed showing KoiFish suggestions that are locked for almost all editors.
Most L1-2 editors cannot add these and cannot hide them either. As a display, it is very confusing for them.
Without taking away any choices in Feed selection, it would be nice if the WME Default Feed could either be selected by country as defined by coordinators or at least remove KoiFish suggestion as default load for all editors.

Add a new closure type: “Intermittent Road Closure”
Description:
I suggest adding a new closure type called “Intermittent Road Closure” to better represent real-world temporary blockages where traffic is periodically allowed to pass. Examples include religious processions, parades, public events, or heavy machinery crossings that alternate between blocking and reopening the road every few minutes (e.g., every 15 or 30 minutes).Problem:
Currently, Waze only supports full or partial closures. However, intermittent closures behave differently: they can cause significant delays but do not justify a total reroute. This creates inaccurate routing decisions and unnecessary detours.Proposed Solution:
Implement an intermittent closure option with the following behavior:- Allows editors…

Remove turns you wouldn’t make off a highway onto a sideroad
Title, i know the “remove difficult intersections” exists, but i’ve tried with or without it and it wants me to go from 55 to 20 (school zone). Over four lanes of traffic, and, on a busy road by me. It’s happened before in other states aswell. Thank you!
