  1. Add general destination information to URs

    URs have been improved by adding more information in WME 2.206, and it would be nice to continue to add information that doesn't jeopardize the privacy of the reporter.

    My idea would be to add information on how the stop point of a user's route was obtained - whether it be a house number, house number interpolation, RPP, Google address, Waze place, Google place, etc. Specifics on the geographic location wouldn't be needed, it would just be very beneficial to know how the stop point was chosen. We get a lot of URs complaining about navigation ending at the wrong…

  3. Weitere Einschränkungen für Straßen ermöglichen

    Es gibt wichtige Einschränkungen wie: Maximal zulässige Gesamtmasse eines Fahrzeugs, Maximale Fahrzeughöhe, Verbot für bestimmte Fahrzeugklassen (z.B. LKW) . Diese sollten über den Editor eingegeben werden können.

  4. Issue Tracker: better filtering of Map Suggestions

    In the issue tracker, we can filter Map Suggestions by status: Open, Closed, or All, with a few subcategories under Closed. However, "Open" suggestions include (a) suggestions with status "Lapsed" and (b) suggestions that can't be accepted or rejected because "Change already applied to the map." Please add filters that would allow us to exclude (a) and/or (b) from the Open category.

  6. rerouting

    n the city of arlington, texas today 6/11 at 11 am, the waze app failed to reroute thousands of drivers when the train broke down stranding thousands of drivers. Drivers should have been rerouted to 360 or to one of the 2 overpasses/
    2 over passes exist , 1 at the police station and one at division street. Why did the programmers not know this? thanks

  9. Flagging matches with permanently closed venues

    With the "Enhanced Matching" between Waze and Google venues going live, some Waze venues are matched with 'Permanently closed' place from Google Maps.

    While these are accurate matches, we won't know these places are permanently closed until an editor interacts with the place or a user reports it to us.

    My suggestion is to flag such matches to be reviewed by editors. A PUR or something like that.

  11. Allow to default sort the searches by distance

    when searching for a place such as "costco" for example, allow your searches to always search by distance from route if already in a drive, or distance from the current location if not in a drive already.

  12. Please allow font size change. Letters are too small now.

    I think font is too small, and requires taking eyes off road to focus on letters - a safety issue. You can with Google Maps by changing phone settings, but this doesn't work with Waze. I prefer using Waze over G Maps. Please consider adding this option.

  13. Suggestions for seeing the number of users who viewed our profile on WME

    As in the waze discuss profile we can see how many people have seen our profile

    Can something similar be implemented in our profile on the Waze Map Editor https://www.waze.com/user/editor/user

    so we can see how many of our wme profiles have been viewed by users

    thank you

  14. Ubicación de lugar turístico mal indicado en el mapa

    Buenas tardes. Hay una ubicación mal indicada en la app. Es Pan y Oliva de Zuelo en Mendoza, Argentina. La ubicación está cerca pero lleva a un lugar donde la ruta es intransitable en días lluviosos y tenemos problemas con los turistas que se desvían usando waze.
    La dirección exacta es Ruta Provincial nro 33, km 7,5. Fray Luis Beltrán, Maipú, Mendoza, Argentina. Utilicé la app para llegar a esta dirección esta mañana, ya que es el lugar donde trabajo y al ingresar a la Finca el mapa de Waze no marca ninguna calle.
    Puedo dar como referencia la ubicación…

  15. Default new users in US and UK to Imperial units

    Since the wonderful new Edit Suggestions tool has been released, we have seen many (too many) suggestions from well-meaning users in the US to change speed limits to values like 16 or 31 mph. Obviously these users were set by default to use metric units without realizing it.

    If a user tries to edit using the WME for the first time in a country that uses Imperial speed limits (which I believe is only the US, UK, Anguilla, Antigua, Barbados, and the Cayman Islands), their units should automatically be set to Imperial by default.

  19. "Take me back the same way I came!"

    "Take me back the same way I came!" Garmin has such an option and it is very useful, especially when the driver gets lost. It can be turned on and off at will.

  20. Excluding Specific Road Types in Polygons Based Events

    I would like to propose an improvement to the "Polygons Based Events" by adding an option to exclude certain types of roads, similar to the school zone alerts.

    In my case, I want to set up a PBE for major roadworks, but a highway crosses at a lower level and will be notified of this event even though it is not affected.
