Add "Any date after today" for age of new aerial data requests (Request updated imagery)
BLUF Recommend adding an option for “Any date after today” Especially for new construction.
Thank you for adding the Request updated imagery straight from WME to the WME Beta site. It allows one to request imagery that is 1 year, 6 months, 1 month. To improve the process it would be great to add "Any date after today". For construction the new configuration may have occurred within the last month or significant changes were made within the last month (lane guidance painting, etc.

House number change history
When selecting a house number the interface no longer shows who last modified the house number. History on the segment doesn't always show what was change (it might show added or deleted, but not moved or edited). Segment history needs to have more detail on what was done.

Drawing similar type segments
In WME Advanced Preferences, similar to the option to “Draw new roads as two-way,” add an option to be able to change the default Road Type to something other than Street.
Helpful when adding a new highway/freeway or a parking lot where all the segment types are the same, I would like to check a box in the Preferences to either “Draw all segments as [Road Type selection]” or “Default Road Type [selection]”

About Waze voice directions
📣 Proposal to Waze: Introducing a User-Created Voice Navigation Marketplace
I would like to make a proposal regarding Waze’s voice navigation feature.
Currently, users primarily rely on the standard voice options provided by Waze.
Although some users can already create and share custom voices on a limited basis, I believe Waze should take this concept further by introducing a fully supported system where individual creators can produce, upload, and sell their own navigation voices within the app.This idea provides significant benefits for Waze, creators, and users alike.
■ Reasons for the Proposal
Creators with strong voice talent can monetize…

Provide ample time to make an exit if you have to make a choice of right or left exit
Avoid people having to miss their exit because you don’t provide enough time and/or lane guidance ahead of time. Was supposed to go left on an exit that had left/right option and Waze did not tell me ahead of time and almost missed their exit.

Unify the number of lanes fields in the WME Lanes & Road Width panel
In my opinion, it would be very useful to combine the two fields for the number of lanes in the left panel of WME. Currently, there are two fields: one to indicate the number of lanes and their width, and immediately below that, a second field to indicate the number of lanes, which allows us to add turning instructions. I think it would also be useful to save space by having a single field for the number of lanes, where we can indicate the width and, if necessary, add turning instructions.

Allow reporting from iPhone while Waze is connected to CarPlay
I would like to request the ability to submit reports directly from the iPhone, even while CarPlay is active.
This would be useful for passengers or in situations where interacting with the CarPlay screen is not practical.6 votes -
Ensure that permanent hazards and cameras are selected before they can be relocated
As shown in the above video, it's far too easy for a PH or camera to be moved accidentally when panning around the map. Hit a PH while panning, and it can be moved half way across the screen.
Please make it so they have to be selected before they're above to be relocated, just like other map elements.

Remember orientation when dragging Street View handle
When the Street View handle is dragged onto the map and subsequently moved again, the orientation snaps to north. It would be helpful to maintain the current heading so that when moving the handle along a street the heading doesn't have to be repeatedly rotated back parallel with the street.

It would be great to show the name of the street you're currently on, as well as that of the next turn. Also, show the name of the street you're on when not in navigation mode.

WME wrong address reports must show the search terms used
Update Requests about wrong addresses MUST show the search terms used by the reporter to look for the venue.
Usually, we have to ask the user (who rarely responds), which takes time and significantly delays a possible map correction.

Filter Segment Closures
It would be great to have the option to filter closures on a segment. e.g. Hide all finished by default, only display active closures, only display upcoming closures etc

Vehicle Height --> RV
Many RVs are much taller (and wider) than the typical passenger vehicles. Allowing the user to enter the vehicle height (and width) will assist when traveling as many bridges and roads do not accommodate Motorhomes, Large 5th Wheels / Trailers, etc.

Allow segment suggestions on segments with permanent hazards

Add "above" number of days since last comment filter to Issue Tracker
In the Issue Tracker, we have "Last 30 Days" and "Last 7 Days" options in the "Last comment time". This filters out the URs since the last comments were before 30 or 7 days.
Can we have another filter for "Above <number> of Days" ago?
The number of days on the Last and Above options should be configurable for the user. As such, if I enter 3, I should see all URs with Last Comment that was made more than 3 days ago.
We can use a between-dates filter, but this must be changed daily. If we have the above…

Disable Permanent Hazards on Non-Driveable Roads and Pedestrian Paths
Disable the ability for permanent hazards to be snapped to and/or placed on non-driveable roads (runway and railroad) and pedestrian paths (routable, non-routable, and stairway) in WME. PHs intended for driveable roads at junctions with these road/path types can be accidentally placed on the incorrect non-driveable segment. While easy to check and correct when placing, this could preemptively prevent mistakes.

Integration with ODB2 to display car information
It would be great to have the car's features displayed on Waze via an OBD2 connection, at least temperature, speed (already available through GPS), fuel consumption, and oil pressure.
Integration with Car Scanner, for example!
