  1. TIPO DE VIA "MUNICIPAL"

    Seria interessante criar via "MUNICIPAL" visto que tem estradas de dominio federal e estadual, mas não tem as vias municipais que são pavimentadas, estas não podem ser consideradas "ruas" visto que são de alta velociade e ligam zonas rurais e pequenas vilas, e não são estaduais pois estão *** responsabilidade do municipio bem como a manutenção e construção.

  2. Disable double click zoom

    An option to disable this feature, or disable it completely. I've never used the double click to zoom in into something. That's the wheel for, or even the buttons on the side of the editor.
    Many times when the WME becomes unresponsive or laggy it is common that while selecting something the selection is not captured, so one tries again to select what ever it was trying to select, however instead of selecting a magic zoom in comes into play.

  3. Add residual kilometers for italian "safety tutor" speedtrap on Android Auto

    Hello! In Italy we have highways with "safety tutor", a speedtrap system which calculate average travel time. In Waze phone mode there's a small banner that indicates the remaining kilometers to exit the area, this feature is not available in Android Auto. Whyyy?? It's so useful :)

    Thanks, love you guys!

  5. Adding a Fire Maltese Cross for fire activity on the roadways. IE. Car Fires, Brush Fire etc.

    As a career firefighter with major highways surrounding our jurisdiction. with the usual bad direction we get, we often open and rely on Waze if and when we get called for a car accident. however, we can use a feature for car fires, car accidents, and brush fires along the highways. etc.

  6. Bicycle Paths

    Hi there Waze team, community,
    In the view of raising pollution from vehicles and health concerns due to sedentary lifestyle, I think it would be a great idea for Waze to it's bit by marking out biking (bicycle) lanes just like it is so easy to drive around with waze in a car.
    This will help people to get around quickly, safely and conveniently. Today in most part of the developed and developing world, bicycles are not given or considered a priority. And in some places it's half hearted efforts for example some central & western European countries where you…

  7. Waze editors should have a method to solicit information from Waze users who navigate via a specific road or POI

    It would be helpful to be able to request information from users who drive on specific road, or drive to/drive past a specific POI. The Waze app users should be prompted for specific information such as :-

    Road 1) Whats the name of this road?
    2) Is this road paved? What is the quality of the road?
    3) Possibility to submit a photo of the road?

    POI 1) Submit a photo for this POI
    2) Submit facilities available at this POI
    3) Submit hours of operation etc for this POI
    4) Submit a telephone number for this POI

    its much…

  8. Setting to see only issues reported or commented by me

    Please add a (easy to find) setting to see only the issues that I have reported or commented on.

    When I select the "Filter" function "Filter map issues", in the section "Update Requests (URs)", under "My actions", I select only "Reported by me", I expect that the results show ONLY issues that have been... reported by me.

  9. Transparent point places while moving

    Now that point places are much larger in WME, it would be helpful to make them transparent when dragging them across the map, so they can be easier aligned with features on satellite image.

  11. Calgary back alleys

    Many houses in Calgary have garages located in the alleys; it would be nice to include back alleys in Waze. I had to revert to using Google Maps for this reason because Waze could only route to my front door instead of my garage, which is located at the back of the house.

  13. Copy and Paste Turn Instructions from one turn to another

    Please allow us to Copy into the clipboard (or similar function) all Turn Instructions from one turn, and Paste them into another turn.

    Quite often, I'm having to replicate the same instructions for different turns at the same junction for those coming from different directions, but turning into the same road. It would be a big timesaver if we could copy TIs into other turns without having to repeat the same steps.

    Thanks for supporting this suggestion! We've added it to the WME team's backlog, and hope to get to it in the near future. We will follow up here when we have an update, or need more info from the community. 

  14. school zone alerts

    I would be game changer to get alerts for schools zones. Sometimes you dont even know you are in one.

  16. Map Suggestions need hotkey

    Map Suggestions are a layer in WME. If you want to see under the suggestion, you have to disable the layer. The only way to do that is via the Layer menu. There is no option for setting a hotkey.

  18. School zones variable speed limit

    Most of our speed zones in province of Quebec are variable in time of day, day of week and month of year. Do you think you could add this feature so it represents the actual speed limit in real time.
    In a regular 50km/h residential zone, the school zone is normally active from 7 to 17, monday to friday, september to july.

  19. [QOL] Have Closure End Date Auto Update to Not Be Earlier Than Start Date

    When setting a closure for the next day, for example, I have to update the start and end date even though the end date should update automatically to prevent an error in the data.

    Is it not possible to set an event to run after the Start field losses focus to update the End date field to update to match the Start date field if the end date is before the Start date?
