Average speed calculation in average speed zone
The idea is that once you enter a speed enforcement zone there will be an aditional box that displays the average speed driven inside the enforcement. This allows you to gauge how much you can speed up after stopping or going slow for awhile.

Pagar peaje por solo unos 200 metros de autorpista?
Todos los días me dirijo a mi casa por una calle a un costado de una autopista que tiene peaje, y cada día WAZE me recomienda pasar por la autopista que tiene un pórtico de peaje. El problema es que solo tendría que recorrer unos 200 metros de autopista y luego salir de inmediato.
¿Es posible que exista un criterio de definición de ruta evaluando no solo el tiempo de ruta, sino que además evalúe el pago a realizar en el los peajes según la distancia que uno recorre dentro de la autopista? Pôr ejemplo, que elija la autopista si…

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…

External providers: Sort suggested places by distance with closest first
WME uses Google Maps as the external provider in Israel and suggests places located in different towns, especially when the edited place belongs to a network. It would help to choose the right place if the suggested places are sorted by distance, with closest places first.

External providers: Don’t suggest extremely far places
WME uses Google Maps as the external provider in Israel and sometimes suggests places located in other countries, thousands km from the edited place. There should be some filtering to exclude very far places.

WME - Default Category List.
Hi.
Please, allow us to change the default - WME Category choices in the drop-down menu to our own preference. As for example we do not use any of the "parent" categories, so it would be great if we could choose what we want making it easier for us to create places.
Thanks!

Waze - Version Release (Number).
Hi.
It would be a nice touch to add the - Waze Version Release, under (Waze Map Editor), so users can see what version they are running and if any bugs are needed to be reported, they can using that version as a reference?
Thanks!

The type of way (preferred / unfavorable / neutral) now it does not appear anymore
The type of via appeared and now it does not appear anymore, even if the editor did not have access to edit this information it appeared on the screen, me and some friends here liked this information because it helped new users to better understand why they did not have access to edition. Because only levels 4 above appear. Could you go back?

Parking along with the Parking area code and Charging info would be helpful
Showing the nearest Parking close to destination is Cool, would be good to also see the Parking area code and if that has Charging points (wherever applicable) -
I am in Stockholm, I usually have to struggle understanding the parking code, for which I can check the charges before I travel.
With Electric cars becoming more popular, it would be great to have the Parking code combined with a Mark highlighting if cars can be charged.
Example Stockholm P - which allows free charging or Mer or Incharge which are paid. This info will be really helpful.
That way can…5 votes -
Add Globe View from Google Maps to the Waze Map Editor.
There is a vast difference between having Globe View toggled on and off. If it was added, it would allow new edits to be made with the ever changing infrastructure of the world. I've noticed myself that I was unable to make some changes due to outdated satellite imagery through the map editor, however I am able to see changes much more clearly with it toggled through Google Maps directly.
Since Waze is now owned by Google, would this be a hard thing to port over to the map editor?

Provide a font size option. I do not need glasses to drive, but cannot read small print.

TIPO DE VIA "MUNICIPAL"
Seria interessante criar via "MUNICIPAL" visto que tem estradas de dominio federal e estadual, mas não tem as vias municipais que são pavimentadas, estas não podem ser consideradas "ruas" visto que são de alta velociade e ligam zonas rurais e pequenas vilas, e não são estaduais pois estão *** responsabilidade do municipio bem como a manutenção e construção.

Disable double click zoom
An option to disable this feature, or disable it completely. I've never used the double click to zoom in into something. That's the wheel for, or even the buttons on the side of the editor.
Many times when the WME becomes unresponsive or laggy it is common that while selecting something the selection is not captured, so one tries again to select what ever it was trying to select, however instead of selecting a magic zoom in comes into play.7 votes -
Inclusão de "Quebra-Mola", também conhecido como Lombada ou ondulação transversal
Tão ruim quanto um "Pardal" eletrônico são os quebra-molas pela via, muita das vezes sem identificação e sinalização. Se houvesse a opção de inserir esses perigos nas vias no Waze seria excelente para segurança e conforto dos motoristas.

Add residual kilometers for italian "safety tutor" speedtrap on Android Auto
Hello! In Italy we have highways with "safety tutor", a speedtrap system which calculate average travel time. In Waze phone mode there's a small banner that indicates the remaining kilometers to exit the area, this feature is not available in Android Auto. Whyyy?? It's so useful :)
Thanks, love you guys!

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.

Bicycle Paths
Hi there Waze team, community,
In the view of raising pollution from vehicles and health concerns due to sedentary lifestyle, I think it would be a great idea for Waze to it's bit by marking out biking (bicycle) lanes just like it is so easy to drive around with waze in a car.
This will help people to get around quickly, safely and conveniently. Today in most part of the developed and developing world, bicycles are not given or considered a priority. And in some places it's half hearted efforts for example some central & western European countries where you…1 vote -
Waze editors should have a method to solicit information from Waze users who navigate via a specific road or POI
It would be helpful to be able to request information from users who drive on specific road, or drive to/drive past a specific POI. The Waze app users should be prompted for specific information such as :-
Road 1) Whats the name of this road?
2) Is this road paved? What is the quality of the road?
3) Possibility to submit a photo of the road?POI 1) Submit a photo for this POI
2) Submit facilities available at this POI
3) Submit hours of operation etc for this POI
4) Submit a telephone number for this POIits much…

Setting to see only issues reported or commented by me
Please add a (easy to find) setting to see only the issues that I have reported or commented on.
When I select the "Filter" function "Filter map issues", in the section "Update Requests (URs)", under "My actions", I select only "Reported by me", I expect that the results show ONLY issues that have been... reported by me.

Transparent point places while moving
Now that point places are much larger in WME, it would be helpful to make them transparent when dragging them across the map, so they can be easier aligned with features on satellite image.
