  1. Automatically add street when adding a point location

    As a waze level 2 editor, when adding a residential place, I'd like for the street to be automatically pre-filled with the closest segment in the map.

    I have been adding a lot of residential places in my zone and I have to copy the street name and paste in each place I add. This process would be more expedite if street name is filled with the closest segment on the map and would avoid errors of places in streets different than the one they are put into.

  3. disponibilizar uma rota quando fazemos um percurso planejado

    Seria importante o Waze disponibilizar uma rota quando fazemos um percurso planejado.
    As vezes precisamos saber as vias que iremos passar para nos programarmos ou programar alguns pontos de encontro na rota.

  5. You can't go to the event announcement page from the live map page, right?

    Currently, you can go to the live map from the event announcement page, but you can't go to the event announcement page from the live map. It would be more convenient if you could go there. It would be easier to understand if you put it above the edit button on the live map.

  6. Make U-turn segment length shorter to 10m.

    In India it's very difficult to create U-turns with segment lengths greater than 16m.
    Please make it 10m or between 10m and 16m.

    Thanks.

  7. Roads with permits for residents only

    Very often there are streets that can only be used by residents.
    It would be useful to be able to set the segments on the WME "residents only".
    This way only those who add their home address on those streets in to the app will be able to use them.
    It is different from editing a road as private, because it would only allow access to residents, whereas now if you search for a destination on a private road everyone can access it.

  10. Registered adress for work-study student

    It could be cool if you can add school next to the home and work registered places on your Waze for student who work and go to school. I know that you can add a place but just a cool small shortcut to do that

  11. Spike Risk Area Alert

    I’d like to propose a new community-reportable hazard feature for Waze specific to South Africa’s growing road safety issue.

    Over the past few years, there has been a serious increase in criminal incidents involving metal spikes being placed on roads especially on poorly lit highways and rural routes at night. Criminals use these spikes to cause tire blowouts or immobilize vehicles, forcing drivers to stop and then robbing or attacking them.

    Why Waze Users Need This:
    Many Waze drivers rely on Waze to avoid police traps, traffic, and accidents. Being able to mark or receive warnings about known “spiking hotspots”…

  12. Create a separate field for road numbers

    Whilst the addition of road shields has been excellent, I do think there should be a separate road number category with the road shield only applying to that instead of the street/alternate names. This will allow for a more accurate result with any addresses that are on roads that have a designated number as well as keeping consistency as sometimes the same address can apply to two different road types.

    There had previously been discussions in the UK Waze community Discord regarding road numbers and only using them in the alternate address field. Currently this proposal is on hold due…

  13. Save speed history

    Got into a run in with an aggressive cop said I was speeding and other bs, my Waze app was on, it would be the best if I could have seen the history of speed bc I genuinely don't believe I was speeding or it was a fair stop.

  15. Manage closures in the Issue Tracker menu

    Live closures are one of the most important contributions that editors can make to the Waze map
    The functionality of viewing past closures on the map has recently been added, which adds complexity to the view.
    This suggestion involves managing closures from the Issue Tracker, allowing you to filter those that have been completed, those that are about to expire, or those within a period of time; or by zones in the same way as the UR, PUR or MP
    I guess this sug includes this one: https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59225-map-editor-suggestions/suggestions/47514620-show-only-active-closures and this one https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59225-map-editor-suggestions/suggestions/45584869-move-closures-history-to-the-closures-tab

  17. Layer toggling keyboard shortcut for Hazards

    There are some discrepancies between the shortcuts and the actual Layer menu when it comes to Hazards. Currently, there are shortcuts to toggle Speed cameras and Railroad crossings only.

    However, there are other Hazards with more frequent instances on the map that could also benefit from keyboard shortcuts. In my opinion, a single toggle for the entire Hazards section would be sufficient. Nonetheless, I'd welcome additional individual toggles along with the general one.

  18. Mark gas station brands as "Top Tier"

    When refueling, many drivers are much more interested in fuel quality than in the specific brand. But at present, the Waze gas-station finder offers no means to limit searches by fuel quality.

    Waze can solve this problem by supporting the identification of brands selling "Top Tier" gasoline. "Top Tier" is a consortium of vehicle manufacturers that approves certain gasoline brands as preferred for their engine designs (toptiergas.com).

    "Top Tier" designation is associated with all stations selling certain brands and not with any individual station. I'm not sure what mechanism to suggest for Waze to support editing a brand-wide feature like…

  19. The Speed Limit Icon is difficult to be seen. It could be same size as the Actual Speed Icon size.

    I'm 69 Y/O My car (Audi Q5) has a small Apple Car Play screen. The Speed Limit Icon (Square White and Black) is difficult to be seen. Its size is to small. It could have the same size of the Actual Speed Icon (Round Black and red). The map allouds to bear a little bit bigger the Sped Limit Icon. IS it possible to increase it? Thank you for your support.
