  1. Allow combining chargers when merging EVCS

    When merging EVCS, give users the option to include both sets of chargers. For some reason, some networks (ahem, ChargePoint) sometimes list multiple charger sites in the same parking lot or garage. If we try to merge them, we have to select one or the other set of chargers. Please add an option to include both sets.

  2. Resumen de viaje

    Sería muy útil que al final de cada viaje aparezca un resumen con la distancia recorrida, el tiempo de viaje total, la velocidad máxima y la velocidad promedio del viaje. Dado que con frecuencia repetimos los viajes, p.e. de la casa al trabajo y la ruta inversa, también podría incluir un comparativo de distancia y tiempo para esa ruta.

  3. Switch the report hazard and speedmeter icons around

    I just thought it'd make sense to switch the icons around because as a right hand side drive, I want my speed closer to my eye line.

  4. Route bar

    Hello,

    i would like to have a "Route Bar" on the screen. TomTom has it and it is great. You can see Petrol stations that are directly on your route, traffic incidents, speed camerasda, nger zones, rest stops and so on along your route.

  5. 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.

  6. Possibility for editors to create map update requests, for changes that need higher level editors.

    Many times I can see needed changes or map problems that are prohibited for my level to edit or fix. But there is no option to report these issues to the higher levels, inside the map editor.
    Should I have to drive there and create a map issue report?

  7. Show only active closures

    In the layers menu, under closures, there should be an "Only active" option. When this is enabled, only active closures will be shown in the WME. This would make the WME look "cleaner" and uncluttered.

  8. Please can you introduce sub and sub-sub folders etc. for saved places.

    It would be great to be able to have and categorise sub folders with labels such as restaurants, hospitals, friends, clients etc.. These might be further nested to a higher level by area, county or country for example.
    It is really very cumbersome to scroll through hundreds of saved places to find the one I want. When I travel abroad I have different countries places all mixed together in one long list. With nested sub folders, finding a particular saved place could be done in mere seconds.

  9. Turn openings (temporary green arrow)

    I loved "turn closures", but now I see the need to have "turn openings".

    For example, a left turn is usually prohibited (red arrow). However, due to an event occurring on the next block, this left turn is temporarily allowed (green arrow) for a few hours on a specific day.

    This is a common situation and, depending on the location, can save a lot of time by avoiding an unnecessary detour of several kilometers.

  10. Calques Cadastre

    Bonjour, dans les calques, comme Géoportail le fait déjà, pourquoi ne pas proposer le calques du cadastre ?
    Cela réduirait les litiges sur les parcelles et dans des lieux invisibles (bois ou forêt par exemple), cela faciliterait l'ajout des chemins et sentiers.

  11. 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

  12. Parking lot type (motorcycles-only, cars-only, both)

    It's very common, at least in Colombia, parking lots only for motorcycles and it's really dissapointing to arrive at a parking lot suggested by Waze, and realize that it's a motorcycle-only parking lot and you're driving a car.
    Please add a new property in WME to choose the type of parking lot: motorcycles-only, cars-only, or both, and add a new feature in app to filter by parking lot type.

  13. Exportable Layer

    The consulting firm I work with does a lot of travel demand model updates and we use the Waze Map Editor quite a bit to update our network's posted speed. We would love to see a feature that allows for the exporting of a selected region's posted speed network to help make these speed updates more efficient. Is this a feature Waze can do now or possibly look into in the future?

  15. Add km and miles distance to the navigation screen

    Please, update the app to show the distance with both km and miles at the same time.
    On the bottom of the navigation screen (after setting the destination) there is plenty of space, I grew up on a country that uses km, now I live in the US that uses miles, but it will take a long time to get used to it, therefore showing both simultaneously (e.g 10 mi / 16 km) would be perfect!

  17. House numbers for villages with no street names

    There are many places where there are no street names - it's just "City name - number" as the address.

  19. Add DPMs with the Paths feature

    Instead of hassling around with segment types and names to get a DPM (Detour Prevention Mechanism) working, a more straightforward approach would be to create a Path, cycle through the possible routes and mark it as DPM. This would be great for intricate structures of parallel routes where you would want to define which routes are greatly preferred.
