  1. Additional scheduler option needed

    I have been adding a bunch of school zones using the new scheduler feature.

    It would be nice to be able to to choose a date range and select that it repeats on the same day every week.

    For example:
    I have come across many schools that are closed most Fridays. Since they aren't closed every single Friday, I can't just remove Friday's from the "included Dates" tab. So I have to add each Friday as an excluded date.

    For example, in this example:
    School starts on August 6 (denoted by the "[")
    School is in session on all the…

  2. Towing mode

    Cars towing caravans and trailers are limited to 60mph
    A towing mode would adjust the ETA for a max speed of 60.

  3. Add new hazard type - "damaged mantinelli". This is frequently seen on roads in Bulgaria

    Add new hazard type - "damaged mantinelli". This is frequently seen on roads in Bulgaria.
    Those damaged road guardrails are huge risk as they are frequently left not fixed for several weeks or months.

  4. Add a hidden stop sign permanent hazard.

    I think it would improve user safety if we were able to label hidden/hard to see stop signs. For example stop signs behind a bush, after a blind curve, or awkwardly placed signs.

  5. Alertas atrapalhando navegação ao deslocar rota para a direita

    Boa tarde!
    Não gostei da posição dos alertas no lado esquerdo superior da tela, fazendo com que a imagem do alerta desloque a rota para o lado direito e em um tamanho menor, dificultando visualização da rota. O mais importante em apps de navegação é a rota, e não os alertas. Os alertas são bons, ajudam, porém, deviam aparecer no lado direito, sem atrapalhar a imagem da rota. Gostaria de publicar imagens aqui, porém não encontrei campo. Me refiro ao Waze utilizado no Brasil. Grato, Roger

  6. Clearer speed limit alerts for speed cameras and average speed zones

    I would like to suggest a feature that could significantly improve driving safety and usability in Waze.

    Currently, when approaching a speed camera, Waze alerts the driver about the camera, but the associated speed limit is not always clearly highlighted or immediately noticeable. It would be very helpful if the speed limit for that specific camera were displayed more prominently on the screen, making it easier for drivers to recognize it instantly.

    An even more important improvement could be made for average speed control zones (Tutor systems). At the moment, the voice alert only says “You are entering a speed-controlled…

  8. Allow the user to spot unexistent speed track assigned on the map

    Allow the user to spot errors on the map specifically regarding if permanent speed traps assigned on the map actually exist or not. Nowadays, such an error is spotted as a general error on the map.

  9. Disable Permanent Hazards on Non-Driveable Roads and Pedestrian Paths

    Disable the ability for permanent hazards to be snapped to and/or placed on non-driveable roads (runway and railroad) and pedestrian paths (routable, non-routable, and stairway) in WME. PHs intended for driveable roads at junctions with these road/path types can be accidentally placed on the incorrect non-driveable segment. While easy to check and correct when placing, this could preemptively prevent mistakes.

  10. Placing speed bumps from the app.

    Hello, it would be interesting to have a way to add speed bumps to the map, mainly because in some places they are placed without permission and this subsequently causes accidents. One way to control this so that people do not abuse the system would be to require a certain number of users to confirm that the speed bump is in that location, so that the app then leaves it there permanently.

  11. Carril Reversible en Guatemala

    Permitir reportar carril reversible en Guatemala, las autoridades habilitan este tipo de carriles para agilizar el tráfico y sería una buena opción reportar dónde inician y dónde terminan para otros conductores, también estar alertas que durante cierto horario hay cambio de vías para evitar accidentes.

  14. Ability to add more than 4 fields in the Address box

    Please give us the ability to create more than 4 address fields. and make it so that editors can set custom number of fields according to their own area.
    Right now waze has four boxes for address: Street, City, State, Country.
    Not all addresses in the world work quite exactly like this so please
    I would like to suggest waze allow users to create custom fields and name them and Country coordinators set the limit of fields in each city and country.
    So we can have many fields like:
    Street
    Sector
    Phase
    Town
    City
    District
    State
    etc.
    I tried looking…

  17. Low clearance road

    Good morning, everyone!
    I would like to suggest adding a “low-clearance road” warning or avoidance option in Waze. Some roads are not suitable for sports cars or vehicles with low ground clearance, and ending up on one can cause drivers to get stuck, leading to backups or unnecessary delays for others who follow the same route.
    It would be very helpful if Waze offered an option - when starting a drive - to avoid low-clearance roads, similar to avoiding dirt roads or tolls. This would improve routing accuracy, prevent traffic issues, and help protect vehicles that are more sensitive to…

    It would be helpful to have improved tools for marking closed or restricted roads, managing HOV/toll lanes, and updating traffic rules more quickly. Better validation for edits and clearer guidance for new editors would make contributions more accurate and reduce errors in the map.

  20. An easy to find link that list all the terms for reporting that waze will reconize.

    When I’m driving with Waze, I hear reports for many different road issues. However, when I try to report those same issues using the exact wording Waze uses, the app doesn’t recognize them. For example, Waze announces a “pothole,” but to report it, you have to say “pothole on road.”
    There should be a list accessible from the three-line menu in the top-left corner that shows each incident and the exact terms required to report it. This would reduce frustration and encourage more users to report issues.
    Also, the spoken options shown under the bottom-right triangle aren’t recognized when said…
