Drawing large rivers on the map, for example, is torture. Although there are scripts that "help" the task, Waze should add its own feature to add water covers, instead of the place editors as it is today.

My suggestion is that each type of water cover has its own type of editor. For example, to draw a river, the editor draws a line that follows the direction of the river and chooses the width, Waze then fills in smoothly, that is, with several "dots".

Another suggestion is the possibility of connecting aquatic elements, such as connecting the river to a lake. Or connect two different rivers.

These changes seem simple, but would be of GREAT help.

Create an option to add a note onto a PUR in the editor when a change is pending for a higher level editor to approve the request.

There are several suggestions on being able to add reasons for why an update is rejected, but a method for the submitting editor to explain the reason for a change might be more effective in helping the senior editor make the decision to accept or reject.

This can currently be done with a map comment, but often those arent noticed when reviewing the PURs in busy areas or will remain on the map if not deleted after review.

Bonjour, je me permets de vous contacter pour vous soumettre une idée qui pourrait rendre votre application encore plus attractive et qui pourrait rendre service à un grand nombre de personnes...

Étant actuellement à la recherche du petit chien de ma sœur qui à fugué, j'utilise Waze pour vérifier les signalements d'animaux morts sur les routes (en espérant ne pas le retrouver de cette manière).

L'idée est qu'il serait vraiment très pratique de développer une option permettant de signaler des animaux errants... Encore plus pratique, un service permettant de signaler aux conducteurs qu'un animal est recherché dans une zone précise (un peu comme les zones de controle radar mais avec une photo de l'animal recherché apparaissant dans un coin).

Cette idée permettrait de renforcer la communauté Waze et en ferait un réel outil apportant de l'espoir à des personnes qui recherchent désespérément leurs compagnons adorés. Cela permettrait également de prévenir les conducteurs qu'il faut redoubler de prudence car un animal perdu ère dans cette zone.

Merci de m'avoir lue, espérant que vous considérerez mon idée afin de la rendre réalisable.

Bien cordialement

Hi,
when saving, if the backend fails, it returns a message. But often they are not localized, and in that case we get a generic
"Please try again later" which is useless because in most case the problem will not solve and the only solution is to cancel all edits.
Here is a list of messages that are not localized and need to be displayed (maybe not exactly in the same form, but at least do not tell the user to try again if it is impossible that it works.

Invalid street 0 was set for venue ID -100
Missmatch max speed in original segments
Property toSegID of NodeConnection with ID 305118209f/-113r references Segment with no generated ID for -113
Node 282093744 is not connected to segment 356869225

There are probably many more, but it is the one I got while editing recently.

Of course it would be even better if the frontend did not generate situation causing those errors :)

I realize Waze can show the speed limit on screen and alert when a user goes over the speed limit, but the app does not make any kind of auditory alert when there is a speed limit change (ex: “The speed limit is now 70 MPH”)

Such an alert would be useful because if a driver could know that the speed limit has been, say, raised from 60 to 65, he or she can then drive faster sooner. It might otherwise take 5 or 10 minutes before the driver notices the speed limit was raised - by seeing this on the screen.

I would like to be able to place custom warnings in WME that come through to the app.

problem:
- certain tunnels see a lot of truckers or camper vans getting jammed because they are too large to enter.
- school area's getting dangerous when people who do not know the area are routed through due to a traffic jam somewhere else.

Idea:
I imagine this like placing a speedcam in WME but then beeing able to fill in a message (with a set maximum of characters).
We could use those to put warnings in problematic areas, and these can be adjusted to the needs of each local community.
for example:
- Underpass max 2,8m ahead
- school area ahead

Exactly like with a speedcam: in the app it should pop up in the green banner with the warning in it.

alternatively:
if a custom waring is too difficult or prone to problems; add a couple standized ones such as for a school area.

Not only will this help make traffic safer. I believe it will also get us a lot of goodwill with local authorities.

Now that we have the "Repeat every year" checkbox for restrictions, it'd be useful if we could tick this for existing restrictions to turn them into repeating ones, without the need to then also edit the start/end dates to avoid the "Start date can not be in the past" error.

e.g. a segment has an existing restriction set for 5th September 2019 to 20th October 2019, and the restriction is one that ought to be set as recurring.

The preferred workflow would be for the editor to simply tick the "Repeat every year" checkbox and save, without any other changes being required to the existing restriction setup.

The current workflow is that the editor ticks the checkbox but then still also needs to change the start and end dates to 5th September 2020-20th October 2020, which risks introducing an error in the modified start/end dates.
