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.57 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.

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?

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!4 votes -

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.

Ability to delete your previous comments inside a map comment
Map Comments allow for conversation, with comments by users. Can we have the ability to delete our own previous comments?

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.

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.
32 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.

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 -
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'

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?

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…

3D Maps
Implementation of 3D Maps
Proposal Overview:
I propose the integration of 3D maps into the Waze navigation app, enhancing the user experience and providing vital contextual information that improves navigation for drivers.Key Benefits of 3D Maps for Drivers:
Enhanced Spatial Awareness:
- Improved Orientation: 3D maps provide a more realistic view of the environment, helping drivers better understand their surroundings, especially in complex urban areas or mountainous regions.
- Landmark Recognition: Drivers can more easily identify landmarks and key points of interest (POIs), which can aid in navigation and make routes more intuitive.
Greater Route Clarity:
- Elevation Changes: 3D maps can…
