  1. Need to add the option to change a roundabout if it is no longer there.

    If construction has occurred and a roundabout is no longer there, we need the option to change the map to a straight street.

  2. Remove bots from the last editor's username (updated field)

    Lately, the last editor who edited an object appears to be a bot. There are a few names for bots: "matching feed 1", "waze-maint-bot", "Avsil".
    IMO only human editors should appear as the last editor in the "updated" field. For example, if someone uses a script to filter edits done in the previous month, the filter includes many edits done by a bot, which is not what the user wants to see. The bot's name hides the name of the last human editor.
    It is suggested that bots will not appear in the "updated" field.

  3. Seaarching on crossings

    By long streets, it is easier to place two street names in the searching box so you can find direct the correct crossing, like it is possible in Google Maps

  4. salve, in Map Editor manca la possibilità di indicare l'altezza.

    salve, in Map Editor manca la possibilità di indicare l'altezza. Informazione utile per chi utilizza caravan e camion. Volevo segnalare un punto pericoloso (2.8 mt) ma non riesco

  5. GASOLINERAS GLP y ELECTROLINERAS

    Cada vez se utiliza más el combustible GLP las ELECTROLINERAS en España para que el vehículo tenga la etiqueta ECO. Pero hay muy pocas gasolineras que lo sirvan.
    Conviene que Waze sepa esto de mi vehículo para que me lleve allí.

  6. Please can you introduce sub and sub-sub folders etc. for saved places.

    It would be great to be able to have and categorise sub folders with labels such as restaurants, hospitals, friends, clients etc.. These might be further nested to a higher level by area, county or country for example.
    It is really very cumbersome to scroll through hundreds of saved places to find the one I want. When I travel abroad I have different countries places all mixed together in one long list. With nested sub folders, finding a particular saved place could be done in mere seconds.

  7. Different layout for RPPs: visible numbers

    Hi,
    in my city there is a big number of RPPs due to side roads.
    I often add them and, since there no way to copy-paste an RPP (this could also be a suggestion), I often copy road's name, then add the number and submit.
    Maybe that sometimes I forget/miss to Apply road name/number, so I get no-way, no-city, no-number, but RPP's triangle doesn't allow me to notice my mistake.
    It would be nice if (at least) the address number appeared on the RPP within the map, in order to check its value.
    Another use for the enhancement would be…

  8. I would like the Level 1 Gold cloud to be a Normal NoN damaged Gold Cloud

    I understand that new users are given beginning editing tools that culminate in results that would resemble the current status of the picture. Having had premium hands on knowledge with Photo/Video editing software I came to the conclusion that many mistakes were made because of the Waze editing software.
    I have my name to this account and would like to request the picture represents Gold is a better light.

  10. Edit in easy Residential/Commercial Construction Area on Level 1

    I was looking to add an easy designated construction area with an entrance that would have its own designation instead of placing it under "Other" on my Level 1. The residential/commercial project also dose not have a name so I placed the Company, and project affiliates in the description.
    The edit submitted seemed to be dry and non-descriptive because of the lack of options. I am not looking to apply for a larger numerical level, but would prefer that the Level 1 be updated on the computer dashboard.
    There are major construction obstructions on the street that have no designation…

  11. Enhanced Dynamic Segment Creation and Editing

    Dynamic Curve Adjustment:

    I propose introducing a dynamic segment creation tool in the Waze Map Editor. This tool would allow users to create a segment by selecting the start point and the endpoint, and then dynamically adjusting the curve by dragging the segment with the mouse. Additionally, the properties menu would enable further adjustments, including angle degrees, after the segment has been created.

    Users can click to set the start and end points of a segment.
    The segment curve can be adjusted in real-time by dragging with the mouse, providing a more intuitive and precise way to shape roads.

    Copy…

  12. See Editable Areas and Area Managers when zoomed out

    The layers "Editable Areas" and "Area Managers" are only visible at zoom layers 12 and above.

    It would be helpful to see these layers at larger zoom levels to better understand what areas you can edit, and who the relevant Area Managers are.

  13. 5 Digits for Gas prices in Colombia

    In colombia the prices of Gas and Diesel have 5 digits, but when a lot of wazers wants to update the prices, in the App we find that in the moment to write the updated price at the 4 digit in the cell the cursor jumps to next cell, this produces in the map wrong prices and wrong ranking of Cheap and Expensive gas stations.

  14. Report wild animals on the live map

    Report wild animals on the live map

    The idea would be to report on the live map, about wild animals (whether: goats, foxes or any type) that the report lasted a couple of hours on the road, and over time reports and warnings could be made about the roads where there are more appearances.
    This would be very good for secondary roads or mountain passes, in such a way as to create a warning if the route passes through an area that has a high level of reports of wild animals and the user would drive with more caution.

  17. Public construction site road network editors

    Creating an account for construction site managers to be able to add site road networks and speed limits within private construction sites. This would enable clear directions within private construction sites with detailed information including specific delivery locations, specific work zones or site offices, etc.
    The feature could be made available per construction site to a selected manager and a secondary person under an approved waze editor who would validate additions / changes before they are published to ensure they are valid.
    This could potentially also be a revenue stream as you could have a small subscription fee to enable…

  18. Hazards to include wildlife.

    Kangaroo moose and deer are a bigger hazard to road users than pothole. Would be good to warn other drivers that they are on side of the road.

  19. Expand original category of a new place

    Today, when adding a new place, we cannot assign to it a specific sub-category at once (except sub-categories of Car Services). We have to assign a generic category, then remove it and either enter the sub-category directly, or add again the proper category, expand it, and select the sub-category from the list. I suggest enabling expanding of the originally assigned category similar to categories added later.

  20. In Greenville, WI, most of our address start with a letter in front of the number.

    In Greenville, WI, most of our addresses start with a letter in front of the number (e.g., W6000 Greenville Dr). Can you allow letters in the street number to ensure accuracy?
