  2. The possibility of making edits similar to Google Maps editor

    I suggest the possibility of making edits as is done in Google Maps editor. There, anyone can edit freely and these edits are subject to technical evaluation before being approved. Here we can improve and, for example, put that these edits are evaluated by editors of a higher level than the one who submitted the edit.

    The reason for this suggestion is due to the probable problem that more places, besides my city, may end up facing: currently I am a level 2 novice editor, and I live in a small town in the state of São Paulo, but this…

  3. Possibilità di vedere i distributori lungo la strada senza doverne fare una ricerca.

    Sarebbe utile vedere se lungo la strada che si sta percorrendo (con o senza destinazione assegnata) ci si avvicina ad un distributore senza doversi fermare per farne una ricerca apposita.
    Grazie.

  4. Image next and back option while viewing uploaded photos.

    Requesting the feature to include image next and back button as seen here (https://youtu.be/mmKyAL7MPEs) while viewing the images from the place update request popup box (https://youtu.be/mmKyAL7MPEs)

    Hope this video explains what I am referring to.

  5. medidas de vehículos

    Estaría bien poder introducir las medias del vehículo dado que hay muchas personas con autocaravanas que se están metiendo por calles muy estrechas e incluso con balcones o puentes por los cuales no pueden pasar, así, de este modo el GPS calcula ruta y omite esas calles o zonas en las cuales no debería acceder vehículos de dichas dimensiones, altura, anchura, largo o incluso toneladas.

  7. Calgary back alleys

    Many houses in Calgary have garages located in the alleys; it would be nice to include back alleys in Waze. I had to revert to using Google Maps for this reason because Waze could only route to my front door instead of my garage, which is located at the back of the house.

  8. Adding a Fire Maltese Cross for fire activity on the roadways. IE. Car Fires, Brush Fire etc.

    As a career firefighter with major highways surrounding our jurisdiction. with the usual bad direction we get, we often open and rely on Waze if and when we get called for a car accident. however, we can use a feature for car fires, car accidents, and brush fires along the highways. etc.

  9. Arrival time for calendar events

    When adding events from my calendar, Waze assumes I want to arrive at the event start time. This is mostly not true; I usually want to arrive 10-15 minutes early, to give me time to park up (and in the case of shifts at work, make a drink before I get started!)

    I would like an option in the app settings to always arrive X minutes before event start time (with a drop-down menu allowing me to choose from eg 5, 10, 15 minutes).

    Alternatively, when confirming the address for a calendar event, an option offering "arrive before event start…

  11. Bus Gate, Lane warning for private vehicles

    Bus Gate and Bus Lane camera Warning

    Since this is the same as getting a fine by speed and red light cameras, preventing private vehicles from entering wrong bus lanes and getting fined, since bus lane warning road markings in the UK are kept to a very small sizes, for maximum fine generation by local governments

  12. Redraw Place Area

    I feel like it would be a great addition if there was a button to reset a place's drawn area and redraw it. In RI, we draw schools by the shape of the building and with many schools being demolished and completely rebuilt into a different shape, its very tedious and annoying to have to go around and either delete all the points or to go just move each one, one at a time. Same thing goes for parking lots.

    It isn't a huge inconvenience, but it definitely would help a lot!

  16. Include "Electronic Fence" as an option on radars.

    In Brazil, several cities are implementing a security system called "Electronic Fencing", whose objective is to monitor city traffic, in addition to detecting stolen vehicles. However, the community has used "Speed Radar" signage to indicate where the electronic fence cameras are located, confusing many day-to-day users, who think it is a speed camera.

  17. Giving option to chose if place would be visible on map or not

    Please allow to chose whether place will be visible in application or not.

    Currently places larger then 500m2 are automatically visible, but many times it is easier to map with area than with point. Sometimes points are hardly visible due to color, zoom level etc...

  19. wme - editor profile - viewability?

    hi.

    it would be nice if we could either allow or disallow other users from viewing our editor profile, this is because of safety of where certain editors may try to find where a user lives. (exemptions would be the countries co-ordinators and waze staff).

    thank you.

  20. Store state in URL

    I want to bookmark certain configurations of WME that contain certain layers or UR filter settings. This is not possible at the moment since the state of UR filters or layers aren't saved in the URL.
