Add neighborhoods to places
Many cities have stores with many locations around the city. These can be hard to distinguish in Waze, since people might not be familiar with the specific street name, and some countries have many streets with no name or similar names. Just as places are assigned to cities, it should also be possible to assign them to a neighborhood (defined based on community guidelines), so it's easier to find and identify places.
A recent feature allows for neighborhoods from Google to appear in search results, but this request is to define and manage neighborhood areas directly in the WME, either…

Import Addresses for route optimization
Route4Me just lost functionality so Waze has an opportunity here... especially if you want to offer individuals a free plan but then sell to corporations a route optimization tool for their field reps/drivers.
I used that app for 5 years and was able to import an excel file with my client addresses, they now shut off that option for individuals and you can only access it from a corporate account.Basically if I have 10 clients on excel I need to go to today, I want to be able to import that into Waze, and then Waze will "optimize" the…

Allow users/editors to upload a picture for a poi from device/WME rather than take a photo on the place from car.
…My suggestion is the following feature: Allow users and editors to upload photos from their phone’s gallery (taken before or after visiting a place) rather than only allowing “instant” photos taken from car from a really bad angle. My suggestion solves this problem: Many current POI photos are low-quality or taken from bad angles because they are often snapped quickly while in transit. Allowing gallery uploads would result in better, more helpful photos that accurately describe a location’s surroundings. In more words: Finding specific points, like a package delivery locker (automat), can be difficult without clear visual clues. I suggest3 votes -

Light to Dark mode transitions
Introduce a fading transition between light and dark modes at sunrise and sunset. Replacing the instant switch with a slow transition prevents visual shock and makes the navigation experience much smoother for nighttime drivers. To make the transition more realistic, I suggest adding a warm yellow/amber tint that gradually overlays the map as it shifts into the darker blue/navy of Night Mode. This mimics the natural 'Atmospheric Scattering' seen at sunset, making the visual change feel organic rather than digital.

To have a certain classification of road/highway to have a connection with at or higher highway classification
Some roads on Waze have highway classifications that do not continue. For example, a road close to me has a minor highway classification; when it reaches a round-about, it loses that classification, but in all directions, that classification does not have a connection. These roads should have its particular classification end at another road with the same or higher classification.

Editors who have several edits for review and are accepted or rejected to view which one of their edits was either accepted or rejected.
I have several edits subject for review. Some of them have been reviewed, but it won't tell me which edit was reviewed. We should have an option to view which of those edits was reviewed and the option to chat with the person who reviewed it for questions about their decision.

WME - Requests window blocking city/country - shift it couple pixels down?
Hello,
Check out screenshot:
https://i.imgur.com/zrA1Hly.pngEach time you are dealing with user reports or any kind of reports it's blocking city name.
When you close to report, you need to search for it again and again on the main list.Would be good that we can see city name while working on reports.

Save all native WME client settings on server side
Base WME client settings are only saved to the local machine, as every time you log in somewhere on a new workstation, you have to go restore your preferences such as Environment, Language, Imperial/Metric, Compact Mode, Transparent Arrows, etc.
However, with the implementation of Issue Tracker, saved filter settings are immediately accessible upon a new login, proving that WME user settings can be saved at the server end.
Please save all native WME settings on the server side so that they are already in place when an existing editor logs in on a new workstation for the first time.
100 votesGreat timing! We're currently working on making your preferences accessible when logging in on a different device. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

Hazard addition to go to suggest an edit
Let all editors add Permanent Hazards but since it is locked by level they can be moved to "Suggest an edit" so spamming with permanent hazards or fake hazards are not added to the map.
31 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Color scheme
On highways the exit matters a lot not being able to read an exit because of the color scheme used by waze make us skip the exit and go to next exit. Surprisingly not always but sometimes the color for exits is white letters with yellow/ orange background which makes it hard to read especially at night.
Kindly stick to black letters on bule background or something thing similar to help read the exit sign
Thanks a lot
May be you can add an option to pick your own colour scheme that may help choose the display colour what they…5 votes -
Additional scheduler option needed
I have been adding a bunch of school zones using the new scheduler feature.
It would be nice to be able to to choose a date range and select that it repeats on the same day every week.
For example:
I have come across many schools that are closed most Fridays. Since they aren't closed every single Friday, I can't just remove Friday's from the "included Dates" tab. So I have to add each Friday as an excluded date.For example, in this example:
School starts on August 6 (denoted by the "[")
School is in session on all the…3 votes -
Allowing a way to requalify a part of a road to pedestrian and pedestrian to road..
A road was re-qualified as pedestrian, but a part of it is still drivable for local.
I was able do split the road in two parts.
But I had to add a new road path for vehicles.
And alter the pedestrian path elsewhere (where there is a pedestrian path) in the same area.The idea is to split a road or a pedestrian path in two or more and be able to switch from one to the other on a part of the path.

Switch editor profile ROW/IL/NA
When an editor makes changes and we want to see what was done (usually flagged in the high volume report), senior editors will often check the editor profile. If that editor is from another environment (ROW visitor to NA, etc), and their last edits were in the home environment, we have no way to see what edits were made in our environment.
Please add an ability to change the edit history per environment. This could be a drop down on the environment currently displayed, or adding an environment option to the URL (env=usa).
