External providers: Also suggest places marked as permanently closed (with a proper mark)
WME uses Google Maps as the external provider in Israel and doesn't suggest places marked in Google as permanently closed. Meanwhile, showing that the place is marked as closed in Google would hint that the place needs additional checking and possibly should be removed from the Waze map.

Display locations where drivers often deviate from Waze directions
Locations where drivers frequently deviate from Waze directions may indicate mapping errors such as missing or incorrect turn restrictions, confusing turn instructions that drivers misunderstand and take a wrong turn, or poor routing where drivers know a better route than the one provided by Waze. It would be helpful for editors to have this data as an additional tool to detect possible locations for improvements to be made to the map.

Save filters
The new issue tracker is great, but I think it could be even better if we had the ability to save our own filters, so that I could create and save filters like: "no description", "unreplied", "rerported by me", etc.
For example, currently, if I want to filter unreplied URs I have to set: status = "open", types = "all types", description = "both", comments = "no comments", and uncheck "has comments".
It's really hard to always set all these options, and if I could save the filters, I would only have to do it once. Next time I could…

View of all types of roads in the editor view of the app
Hello,
It would be great if the map in the editor mode view would highlight unpaved roads, alleys and segments that have restrictions.
It would help editors to submit URs for our own attention and improve the map more easily.
Thank you.

aggiungere la possibilità di correggere il limite di velocità in vigore sulla tratta percorsa (ove errato o modificato da lavori)
Vivo in svizzera. In questo paese la velocità consentita cambia molto frequentemente (specialmente in corrispondenza di lavori stradali) e questa cosa non va molto d'accordo con il fatto che qui sia consentito mettere autovelox senza alcun avviso. sarebbe fantastico se potessimo correggere i limiti di velocità in tempo reale per garantire la migliore informazione possibile a tutti.

External Providers Search Displays Too Little Information
The + Add linked Google place functionality on venues is incredibly difficult to use. When you search, the Waze-prioritized white space leaves almost no room for the search results to actually contain usable data. As it is now, I often have to guess as to which place it might be and often have to repeat the process making editing places very inefficient. Please expand the information displayed here so that this functionality is actually useful to finding and linking Google places. The whole name of a place should appear along with a complete address.
106 votesThank you for submitting this suggestion!
At the moment, when you hover over a place, it shows its complete address. Is this something that solves the original issue you mentioned?
If not, we would love to hear from you on how it can be improved.
Thank you!

Easier to switch between Brief and Sound On instructions
I like the Brief Instructions when I'm in familiar territory. I like full instructions when going somewhere new or unfamiliar.
It would be great if I could easily switch between the two. Could we add "Brief" alongside "Sound Off" "Alerts Only" and "Sound on" instead of going through the settings menu?1 vote -
Routines
I go to work every weekday around 8:00, and come home around 5:00. WAZE seems to know this, as it pops up on my screen so I can easily select it.
There are several routes to take between my home and work. Often, I drive the same route. Occasionally, there is an accident, construction, etc... so another route is better. So I always like to check WAZE.
WAZE knows that I'm going to work, and I generally know how I'm getting there. So, automatically provide minimal directions. If traffic is bad on my usual route, switch to full directions. When…1 vote -
Country Manager
The Country Manager should be a local editor as we know the changes to the road, we are driving in the country, not a foreigner using satellite images to edit the map.
Some accidents are caused by drivers heavily depending on waze at night as they know its updated but now its not .

Temporary driving directions (roadworks/ rerouting)
Temporary driving directions visible directly on the live map such as closures and that temporarily override the set driving direction in WME. This would be useful for one-way streets where there is a temporary reversal of driving direction due to roadwork or rerouting.

Add "follow my route" for routes we know are faster than suggested.
Add "follow my route" for routes we know are faster than suggested. You can record the route from the suggested route, then compare analytics, eco, mileage at the end destination; and share a recommended route change.

A desktop app for WME
We have a webapp as our WME. But, at least in my experience, it is very buggy sometimes and consumes lots of RAM. I believe there should be a desktop app (mind you, not just a iframe in a exe, but a quality app) since it would be faster, snappier and easier. Regarding extensions -- I think they should be a part of the WME, not just a addon. It simply doesn't make sense to have to install dozends of extensions to have a better environment if it could be integrated.

Select entire street also by any of its alternative names
In some cases, it would be helpful to select an entire street not by its main name, but by one of the alternative names that it may have.
For instance, here in Portugal we have a big mountain area where it is needed to apply recurrent road closures due to bad weather (heavy snow). Because road closures are carried out by the authorities in perfectly delimited areas, the Portuguese community decided to put exactly the same name on ALL roads of a same area, even if the real street name is a different one. By doing this, the option ‘Select…
