Send automatic update request to URs with automatic description
When users with older versions of Waze report a problem, the user requests shown in WME sometimes include an automatic description, such as “Reported map issue” or “Reported from AAOS”. Today such URs don't receive the automatic update request since the server considers them a user's comment. The server should recognize the automatic descriptions and send the automatic update request.

POI tiles during route
Waze Map do not have feature to show on screen during drive nearest POI on route. Sygic navigation has something like this it shows tiles on top (in android auto mode) which shows nearest restaurants, gas stations, parkings on route with distance.
This is especialy usefull on long routes when driver need plan breake. I can estimate nearest gas station is 2km away and next is 15km away so I can decide to pullover now or later.3 votes -
Crowdsourced GPS signal degradation / interference alerts
Crowdsourced detection of areas where GPS/GNSS positioning is degraded, unavailable, or potentially affected by interference.
Today, Waze does an excellent job using aggregated phone motion data to detect traffic speed, crashes, road hazards, and other conditions. A similar approach could help detect locations where many devices suddenly experience degraded GPS quality. The user-facing alert could be simple and non-alarming, such as: “GPS signal degraded ahead” or “Navigation accuracy may be reduced in this area.”
This would be useful because when GPS fails or becomes unreliable, users often blame the navigation app. A contextual warning would improve user trust, reduce confusion,…

Türkiye: Integrate official Ministry of Interior radar, checkpoint, and average-speed corridor data
Waze should consider integrating official public traffic-enforcement data for Türkiye from the Turkish Ministry of Interior:
https://www.icisleri.gov.tr/iller-arasi-radar-ve-kontrol-noktasi-uygulama-sayilari
This official page allows drivers to view the number of speed corridors, radar controls, and police/gendarmerie control points on selected intercity routes. According to the Ministry page, the data covers traffic applications carried out by Police and Gendarmerie units on the selected route and is refreshed every 30 minutes.
Adding this data to Waze would be very useful for drivers in Türkiye, especially on intercity routes. The goal would not be to help drivers avoid the law, but to improve road-safety awareness and…

Toggle to avoid turning right/left where there are no traffic lights.
The ability to toggle on or off to avoid turning left (In right hand drive countries) and right (In left hand drive countries) where there is no traffic lights present. Sometimes waiting at a giveaway to cross traffic can take a lot longer than driving a bit further and turning at a turn signal. Or for those who aren't comfortable. Also, could filter it to only lights with turning lights to be more specific.

Proposal: Improve Access to Event Announcement Pages from the Live Map
Hello Waze Team,
Currently, the Waze Live Map does not provide a link button to event announcement pages. In addition, event detail pages do not include a button to return to the Live Map or the event list.
As a result, when users share an event detail link on social media and others try to check additional road closures afterward, they have no way to navigate back, which causes the experience to break down.
To improve usability and navigation, I would like to request the following enhancements:
Add a link button to event announcement pages on the Live Map
Add…

On the display on Hyundai android auto (2025 Tucson) the hazard notification button would better put on the lower left of the screen as opposed to the right. it would be less distracting.

Poderia colocar um Pop-up igual a do google Maps. Isso é muito útil
Poderia colocar uma opção para deixar em pop-up ou janela flutuante para quando saimos do waze ele continua aberto no canto da tela pequeno. Tipo como é no google maps. Se podesse eu colocava um print aqui como exemplo.

Don't detour off tolled highway and back on to save a minute
This morning waze thought it could save us a minute by directing us to exit the tolled highway. Take some back streets and then put us back on the same tolled highway. It didn't save us time but did cost us twice the amount for the trip.
Waze should not detour off and on tolled roads for insignificant time saving.

Enable the ability to turn off railroad track warnings - we have too many in my local drives. I use Google Maps because of this.

Add the option for wrong speed on the map issue button.
A lot for UR are made for a wrong speed limit. It would me useful if the driver could report a wrong speed limit with the proper button, under the "Map Issue" button in the report section. This addition could reduce significantly the time between the report and the map update, because a lot of time the map issue are send but not actively followed by the reporter, the editor remains with no clue about what the UR is about.

Crisis Shelters listed in a side column
Since we have been able to create and push [crisis] shelter pins on our own, managing them has proven to be a challenge.
What I would like to see is a sub category for "Shelters" in say the Events side panel for where we can have filters (like within other WME side panels) that would allow us to show/filter through what's open, what's closed and be able to click through to that location to turn it off/on
We now have a good list of past shelter centres, which are often the same during the next emergency, so having this filterable…

Do not automatically re-add a deleted GeoClosure RTC
Once a GeoClosure RTC is deleted, it should not be automatically re-added to the map.
1) It interferes with adding the actual RTC, where it will be automatically re-added during the process of adding the actual RTC which most of the time involve the painstaking process of selecting many segments, only to get hit with a "overlapping time" error.
2) Occasional issue of an inaccurate RTC reported, and is being removed by an editor with on-the-ground knowledge. Only L5 and SM+ are able to add RTCs in Malaysia, surely these editors are more trustworthy on the ground than users who…
