  1. 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.

  2. Ability to select long stretches of road

    A feature that would allow defining a start and an end point and which would automatically select the road between them would be very helpful. There is somtimes a need to select a length of road in the tens or even hundreds of kilometres. (The alt-click trick doesn't work for such long distances.)

    Two use case examples:

    1) RTC on long stretch of highway

    There have been several highway closures due to winter storms recently. Selecting the entire road to be closed requires lots of panning and selecting individual segments, which is very time-consuming.

    2) Making changes to long stretches…

  3. Add the ability to edit improper road closures, such as flooding on one end only.

    Some roads are flooded at one end, but open to residents on the other side, yet the closure lists the entire road as closed. This is a disservice to the residents living on open sections.

  4. adding gas station lists

    Add gas station lists to the navigation that belong to tank24, for example, in order to plan the route according to the gas stations.

  6. Exempting some editors from waiting for changes to be applied to the map

    Hi .
    I don’t know if Waze can exempt some editors who dedicated their lives to editing from the 24-hour waiting period for changes.
    Several reasons support this idea:
    such as editors having limited time due to family and work commitments.
    Some actions require immediate attention, and exceptions could enhance map accuracy, accelerate change application, and impress users with faster updates, attracting new users.

    Your thoughts stemmed from adding a Gate to a mall, experiencing instant change app, prompting the idea of applying this efficiency to the entire map.

    thanks!

  7. Make RPPs a bright pink

    Change the colour of the RPP from a camouflaged dusky pink (same shade used to literally camouflage reconnaissance Spitfires in WWII) to a bright pink like #fa0584 to make it more visible in urban backgrounds.

  8. A maioria das cidade do Brasil tem diversos QUEBRA-MOLAS que não são padronizados, muito menos sinalizados. Sugiro notificação para eles

    A maioria das cidades do Brasil tem diversos QUEBRA-MOLAS que não são padronizados, muito menos sinalizados. Levando uma infinidade de transtornos aos condutores, seja danificando o veiculo, seja causando até um possível acidente, caso o veiculo venha em velocidade e ao passar por esse mesmo quebra-molas venha perder o controle causando assim um acidente, que pode ser leve ou fatal

  9. Speed pumps alert

    Lots of speeding pumps are not correctly feasible, would be real helpful if we can add report to the map as well

  10. Add apple Music on Android

    So I use Apple Music on my Samsung s22 Ultra which is an android device (I can't imagine that I'm the only person who dose this). So integration with Apple music on Android would be amazing

  11. Use Paths or Restricted Areas to create drive through restriction

    Amount of residential areas where drive through is forbidden is increasing everywhere. I was wondering could either Paths or Restricted areas have an extra setting "Not allowed to drive through" and by setting it router would prohibit such routes. Paths would work on smaller areas but in bigger ones would have to be set with Restricted area.

  13. Issue tracker, one more filtering option needed

    To be able to follow resolving rates it would be great if you could add one more filter, Solved / Not Identified / Both. Going through those one by one to find out percentage of solved issues is quite a job, this would help a lot.

  14. Please change the color of street labels so it does not match the color of the roads.

    I often confuse the label with a road, especially on small screens. Even a small difference would prevent this.

  16. Prompt user to save Lane changes if deselecting segment

    After editing Lanes, it's far too easy to lose the changes by accidentally deselecting the selected segment you are editing if you don't apply the changes beforehand.

    This suggestion is to recognise that changes have been made in Lanes (or road width), and prompt the user to apply or cancel the changes if they deselect the segment they are editing.

  17. House numbers for villages with no street names

    There are many places where there are no street names - it's just "City name - number" as the address.

  19. Disc Parking / Parkscheibe / vulgo Parkuhr / disque de stationnement / Disco horario / Parkeringsskive / Pysäköintikiekko

    As payment method for parking lots & customer parking we need a disc parking option,
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_parking
    as these are becoming very popular at stores. Additionally a field is required to set maximum parking time with the disc.

    Would be great if Waze would notify that a parking disc is needed if you reach such PLs

  20. Incluir alerta de quebra-molas. Hoje não temos como alertar sobre a existência de quebra-molas nas vias urbanas ou rodovias.

    Em várias vias temos construções de quebra-molas pelas prefeituras e mesmo em rodovias, onde este pode provocar acidentes caso o motorista não saiba da sua existência. Hoje não temos como incluir alerta de quebra-molas, o que é um obstáculo muito importante de dar ciência ao motorista.
