Multiple entry points
Waze should re-enable its multiple entry points feature (eg one side of building or another).
Instead of using the first entry point, Waze users should be directed to the one that’s marked as the main point in the editor.

Swap A-B ends of a segment
When I select a single segment it shows A at one end and B at the other. Editing the speeds for each direction on that one segment works correctly. Many roads have some segments facing the opposite direction, and when selecting multiple segments this causes a glitch in the speed limit editing - since it's only editing one direction at a time and the software isn't correctly handling the mismatch of directions. It takes a third selection and typing of the new speed to overcome this glitch, which then shows as 3 changes instead of 2.
The A-B direction is…

Add closed map suggestions count to profile page
It'd be great if you could track how many map suggestions you have closed. You can already see your closed UR, PUR, and MP counts on your profile page so it would be great if closed map suggestions could also be added.
Here is a simple mockup I made of what that could look like: https://i.imgur.com/XajOINK.png

Possibilità di vedere i distributori lungo la strada senza doverne fare una ricerca.
Sarebbe utile vedere se lungo la strada che si sta percorrendo (con o senza destinazione assegnata) ci si avvicina ad un distributore senza doversi fermare per farne una ricerca apposita.

Extra click required before moving place point
After WME v2.115, a place point requires 2 clicks to move it. When creating a new place point, you can add the stop point. But to move the place point, you have to de-select the place point then re-select it.

Make the roads bigger on smartphones
I would like to be ble to correct directly from my smartphone (i.e. Android)
It is perfect from a laptop.
But on smartphones, roads are too small.

Have Waze announce which side of the street your destination will be on when you've turned on to the street.
Have Waze announce which side of the street your destination will be on when you've turned on to the street. For example: your destination is X feet ahead on right/left. Or you've arrived at your destination (read address would be great also) on right/left.

Emergency vehicle specific routing
Emergency vehicle specific mode. I suggest creating an emergency, or non-emergency mode, which takes into account the physical size and weight of an emergency vehicle along with handling characteristics and a local jurisdicitons guidelines for how emergency vehicles can and should be operated.
These are then used to feed you directions that are ideal for your emergency vehicle taking into account shortcuts, restricted access routes etc.

Where a roundabout was closed for a few hours only, allow an edit to reopen the roundabout rather it being erroneously shown as closed.

Tell the editor why they can't edit Far Lanes
If you're below the required editor level to edit Far Lanes, then the Far Lanes interface is visible to you when editing Lane Guidance, but it's dimmed out - and there's no explanation why. For example, in Australia, Far Lanes requires Level 4 or higher - but nowhere in the Waze Map Editor does it mention this. For the user editing, the Far Lanes interface just appears greyed out for them for no apparent reason.
All that needs to be added is some kind of message that says "You need to be a higher level to edit Far Lanes" whenever…

Being able to add construction just like road closures
When you make a closure through the app or through WME , you are able to select one whole segment / multiple segments to apply the road closure on.
My Idea is that reporting construction would work just like reporting/making a closure, or probably giving the user the option to just place a warning or to select a whole road segment to add the construction to
And like european maps (from germany and nearby) , the whole segment should be covered in orange and white strips... Just like road closures but orange instead of red!

Display locations where drivers often deviate from Waze directions
Locations where drivers frequently deviate from Waze directions may indicate mapping errors such as missing or incorrect turn restrictions, confusing turn instructions that drivers misunderstand and take a wrong turn, or poor routing where drivers know a better route than the one provided by Waze. It would be helpful for editors to have this data as an additional tool to detect possible locations for improvements to be made to the map.

Save filters
The new issue tracker is great, but I think it could be even better if we had the ability to save our own filters, so that I could create and save filters like: "no description", "unreplied", "rerported by me", etc.
For example, currently, if I want to filter unreplied URs I have to set: status = "open", types = "all types", description = "both", comments = "no comments", and uncheck "has comments".
It's really hard to always set all these options, and if I could save the filters, I would only have to do it once. Next time I could…
