Enable zoom keyboard shortcuts (Shift + up/down) when Streetview is open
Zoom keyboard shortcuts (Shift + up/down) are not working when Streetview is open. Please bring them back :)
They were intentionally disabled apparently - see forum post for more info: https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2362272

Railroad Crossing info
my idea would be trying to either intergrade the USA FRA railroad crossing locator app into waze or make it so we can add the info manually so if at a crossing where there may be an incident a user can click on the crossing and it will bring up the crossing ID number and the emergence contact phone number for the Railroad.
I feel like this feature could possibly save lives considering most do not know where to look for the signs at the crossing nor know that the locater app even exists.

Request to Waze team
Request to the Waze Team
Please add a feature to Waze that uses OBD2 to provide vehicle speed pulses. Currently, when entering a tunnel, the vehicle stops on the map, so I would like this feature to ensure accurate navigation within tunnels.
In Japan, there are interchanges within tunnels, making accurate navigation difficult without this feature. To improve this, please enable the use of an OBD2 connector to provide speed information even within tunnels.
Additionally, I believe Waze could generate profit by supporting OBD2 and selling Waze-compatible OBD2 devices. It would also be helpful if these OBD2 devices could automatically…

Allow advisory drops on website
Allow the ability to enter in advisory pins on the desktop site even when not diving. Users may know of construction, closures, traffic, incidents, that are not reported by on road Wazers. This would be an extra eye in the sky to warn drivers of known issues ahead.

Zoom in to selected map suggestion
When we select a map suggestion in the Issue Tracker, the map is centered on the suggestion, but the zoom level isn't changed. The map should zoom in to the suggestion.

More APIs for voice Assistants
Users can use Google Assistant, Siri, etc., to add alerts (e.g., road closures, weather) and to turn on/off Waze settings, such as reading the next speed limit and turning off reading aloud road names... etc

Custom speeds by user
This is just effected to the current user only.
Just like the emergency buttons in the default map view, individuals can pick a new button named "Custom Speed." From here, they can set a speed value and distance. Additionally, setting a time range would be even better.

Speedlimit by time period
There are some speed limits based on local time (eg, 16:00 - 20:00: limit 40mph otherwize 70mph).
Current: Not supported, or only supported in routing mode.
Expected: Supported, or supported in default map view.3 votes -

bike paths
It would be cool if bike paths could be added and the category 'footpath' could be renamed to 'path', allowing one to select which type of path it is (footpath, bike path).

Android \ help and feedback \ Report map issue \ Keyboard blocks the description box
On the android app, under Help and Feedback, Report map issue... the text box for "Describe the issue" is blocked by the on-screen keyboard, so users cannot see what they are typing. The only way to see is to minimize the keyboard, but the minimize button becomes the "go back" button, so it is easy to accidentally go back, which wipes everything the user just entered in.
I suggest the program developers added some blank space on the bottom of the page. This would allow the user to scroll down so that the "Describe the issue" text box does not…

Set up a schedule
It would be good to be able to set a schedule, for example; weekdays leaving between 08:00 - 08:30 set destination as Work, leaving between 17:00 and 17:30 set destination as Home. I always set destination for regular routes as Wase tells me of accidents, traffic (and speed cameras 😇) It would be good it it had a timeout too, so if the schedule hadn't been used for say 60 minutes it automatically cancels.

Allow easier editing of new addresses with homes facing the "wrong way"
Our development is a cul-de-sac with addresses that won't save in the map editor because the homes are all side-facing. This makes it difficult to share the address with guests if they aren't able to navigate there. Please allow all editors the ability to add their homes to the map.Thanks!

Issue tracker, disabling automatic refresh after closing for example UR
Issue Tracker is otherwise good but one part of it's behaviour is driving me nuts!
When you close for example an UR it refreshes the list automatically -> You lose track where you were on the list. So you end up clicking same reports over and over again every time you close something...
I liked the old UR list behaviour better when solved one's stayed on the list until you refreshed it, you never lost the track where you were on the list. And there is a refresh button on Issue Tracker so WHY does it also have to refresh…
51 votesGreat timing! We’re currently working on the option to disable automatic refresh. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.
