Adjustable Speeding Threshold for Accurate Alerts
Dear Waze Team,
The current Waze speeding threshold (first photo) only allows alerts at or above the speed limit (e.g., 0, 5, 10 km/h above), which doesn’t account for discrepancies between vehicle speedometers and Waze’s speed readings. In my country, exceeding the limit by even 1 km/h (e.g., 101 km/h on a 100 km/h road) results in a ticket. However, Waze’s speed often reads lower than my vehicle’s speedometer—sometimes by 10 km/h—due to location accuracy and calibration differences. With Waze set to alert “at speed limit,” I receive no warning until my vehicle speedometer hits around 110 km/h, leading to…1 vote -
Holiday based turn/traffic restrictions on Japan
Traffic/turn restrictions for holidays have not yet been implemented in Japan.
Please support Japanese national holidays.If Sunday becomes a national holiday, Monday falls under the holiday in lieu, etc. There are detailed rules. The dates that fall under holidays are listed in the following law
https://laws.e-gov.go.jp/law/323AC1000000178/Similar proposals outside of Japan have already been implemented and should be less burdensome.

Link Google place to a residential place in Waze
Many addresses in the Google Maps are marked far away from real locations, and it badly affects user experience in Waze. Today we only can link such wrong addresses to public places in WME. It will be more reasonable to allow linking them to residential places.

Voice Updates
For reporting of Voice Updates of Hazards etc, the button should be bigger and should not conflict with other buttons or map options, if possible if we speak like "waze" and then report a hazard etc this should work with voice command without pushing any buttons

Enable merging residential places
Today we cannot directly merge two residential places (or merge a residential place into a public one). There is a workaround: convert residential places to public ones, save them, merge, then convert back to residential if needed. Why not allow merging the direct way?
56 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Temporary real-time traffic regulations override
Police frequently implement temporary local traffic regulations, such as diverting vehicles through bus lanes or HOV lanes. On Waze, these segments are typically mapped with Time-Based Restrictions (TBRs) to prevent routing through them. However, these areas are usually pre-mapped. I propose creating a new entity within WME that can be toggled in real-time to override existing TBRs, allowing for more accurate routing based on live traffic conditions

NOMBRE CALLE
Seria muy interesante que Waze, pusiese la calle por la que uno circula cuando no llevas un destino fijado.
Como si lo hace cuando llevas una ruta estableciada
Supongo que no seria dificil, si ya lo hace al llevar un destino marcado
Gracias

Option to Avoid Specific Places or Intersections
It would be very helpful to have the ability to mark specific places, roads, or intersections that users want to avoid — like setting a "do not route through here" point. Waze could then calculate routes that steer clear of those areas.
The current issue is that Waze often reroutes dynamically while driving. Even if I start on a preferred route, I sometimes follow Waze's updated instructions and end up passing through places I was specifically trying to avoid. This can be frustrating — especially in countries where some intersections or roads are known to be dangerous, either due to…

Issue Tracker: within the Areas I Manage list, add an "All my areas" option
An All my areas option will give me a high-level view of all the areas I manage without selecting each area.
29 votesGreat timing! We’re currently working on adding an option to see the list of all the area you manage. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

Allow forcing a closure to expire (instead of deleting the closure)
The WME shows now the status of all recently finished and all active closures. A deleted closure will not be visible anymore.
For that reason, we prefer to "finish" closures instead of deleting them.
It would be nice to have an option in the context menu of closures, to make the closure expire, by setting its end moment to now.116 votes -
Feed - Unique "Area" setting per feed type or "distance" sorting.
I most often use the Solve Feeds to work User Reported issues across my managed area. While looking a those, I am inclined to work nearby surfaced MS and PUR. However those feeds greatly exceed the limit of items exposed.. As a result, the items in the feed are only the 500 most recent items, regardless of their proximity to where I am currently viewing. I'm not inclined to switch feeds and click though the 10 pages of items to get to the "Load more", and repeat that 5-10 times for the PUR feed, and then more than 50 times…

I want to put a warning icon like in partnership
I would like to see the Waze Partnership-specific warning icons, which can currently only be installed on-site, made easier to install. For example, it would be useful to have a system where you can pull over and set it on the navigation screen, or a function where you can set it using the Waze Editor in your browser.

Inclusão de Semáforos, sem ou radar de velocidade.
I propose the implementation of marking all traffic lights, even those without speed radar, in the Waze app’s mapping system. This feature aims to enhance the navigation experience, provide greater driver safety, and enable more accurate and efficient routes.
Including traffic lights on the Waze map would allow:
Greater Accuracy in Route Time Calculation: By accounting for waiting times at traffic lights, Waze’s algorithm could offer more precise route estimates, preventing unexpected delays for users.
Suggestion of Faster and Safer Routes: With the location of traffic lights known, Waze could suggest alternative routes, avoiding intersections that require longer waiting times…

Why did you get rid of the 'animals' on the side of the road?
Why did you get rid of the 'animals' on the side of the road? I now have to alert people about deer, etc by clicking on the general 'hazard'
