  1. Extra click required for approving a PUR

    When approving/rejecting a PUR (new place, new photo, change in details), an extra click is now needed to close the window. Simply clicking approve/reject would close the window, but now you also have to click done to close the window. This wasn't the case until WME v2.109 (released August 2022)

  2. Combined Red Light & Speed Cameras

    The UK now has a growing number of red light cameras that also double-up as speed cameras. These should be able to be captured and displayed/warned as having both functions to drivers.

  3. add the vehicle type automatically to the wme update request

    this help alot when I want to solve an update request and know what the vehicle type that chosen in the app who makes this report, because some roads only permit specific vehicles

    also you can add other info to the UR automatically, like some app sittings (avoid unpaved road, avoid freeways, avoid difficult intersections)

  4. Average speed calculation in average speed zone

    The idea is that once you enter a speed enforcement zone there will be an aditional box that displays the average speed driven inside the enforcement. This allows you to gauge how much you can speed up after stopping or going slow for awhile.

  5. Lines on sections of roads with roundabouts!

    We urgently need to implement the ability to add lanes on sections of roads with roundabouts!
    There are many sections of roads with roundabouts that use multi-lane and different traffic lanes.
    This functionality is severely lacking.

  6. Re-Center Directional Map

    While driving my route yesterday, I accidentally touched the map screen. For the life of me, I couldn’t find a ‘Re-Center’ indicator or get back to the usual directional map. I gave up in frustration and switched back to the GPS map I was using prior to trying Waze again.

  7. Change Forum Sharing Options object types posted in forum

    Currently when an editor uses the Forum Sharing Option to request an unlock, the request ALWAYS says "I would like to be able to edit the following segment(s)." no matter what type of object is selected.

    The request should be automatically based on type of object selected

    If segment(s) selected, no change
    If venue(s) selected, the request should say "I would like to be able to edit the following venue(s)."
    If they have any other type of object selected, the request should say "I would like to be able to edit the following [selected object type]."

  10. Allow marking issues unread from the Issue Tracker

    Currently, editors can "star" and "unstar" individual issues from the Issue Tracker panel, but there is no similar way to mark issues "read" or "unread". Once an issue is "read," you need to open it and then mark it unread from the issue's interface. Suggestion: add a button next to the star to allow toggling each issue's read/unread status.

  11. add ''HIGHWAY FIRST" to preference

    When there are several routes available, I've noticed that Waze may calculate a route that combines both ground roads and highways. This is done to save a little time or reduce toll fees but can result in entering the highway from a distant entrance or exiting the highway too early. This approach leads to more instances of entering and exiting, as well as increased interactions with other drivers, which is unnecessary and more dangerous.

    I suggest implementing a "HIGHWAY FIRST" preference. When a highway is available, the system should calculate a route that prioritizes the use of highways, even if…

  14. Déviations pour les créateurs local

    pouvez-vous rajouter une fonctionnalité pour les créateurs locaux, un signalement avec le fléchage de la déviation.
    Faire la déviation obligatoire lors de travaux.
    Cela me permettra de mettre en place la déviation qui ne fera pas perdre de temps aux utilisateurs qui s'engouffre dans les travaux et qu'ils sont bloqués.
    Merci par avance.

  15. Change Forum Sharing Option autofill

    When an editor uses the forum sharing options, new editors are consistently adding the wrong lock level to their request.

    For example, the current Unlock Request automatically fills in the following information:
    Hi Editors,

    I would like to be able to edit the following segment(s).
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    Permalink: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=29.63406&lon=-104.27920&zoom=5&segments=516527406
    Reason:
    Unlock to level:

    Thank you in advance,
    The "reason" and "unlock to level" kind of blend in.

    My suggestions would be to automatically fill in the current lock level of the selected objects and the rank of the editor making the request for the "unlock to…

  16. Speed Limit Pinned on Segments

    I'm wondering if speed limit pins can be placed on the segment exactly where it shows on the map using street view as a guide. This will make it easier to find speed limits when responding to speed limit UR. I'm thinking of this as more of a visual aid for editing. I would also like a toggle on and off option that can be added on the right map layer panel.

  17. Propose map changes that I'm not allowed to because of my level

    As a Level 1 Editor, I would like to propose a change in a map where I'm not allowed to so the change is not applied until an editor with the adequate level approves it.

  18. Adjust Categories to cover Sports Clubs

    Some of the categories don't quite cover what editors might be looking for. For example, Game Club should be a Sports Club, and a Club should be like a nightclub or function room type place. Currently, there is no category that covers a local sports club/function room. they're often a vital community asset and are used for plenty of social functions by non-club members which often leads to "non-locals" having to try locate them

  19. Inclusão de "Quebra-Mola", também conhecido como Lombada ou ondulação transversal

    Tão ruim quanto um "Pardal" eletrônico são os quebra-molas pela via, muita das vezes sem identificação e sinalização. Se houvesse a opção de inserir esses perigos nas vias no Waze seria excelente para segurança e conforto dos motoristas.
