  1. Zoom in to selected map suggestion

    When we select a map suggestion in the Issue Tracker, the map is centered on the suggestion, but the zoom level isn't changed. The map should zoom in to the suggestion.

  2. More APIs for voice Assistants

    Users can use Google Assistant, Siri, etc., to add alerts (e.g., road closures, weather) and to turn on/off Waze settings, such as reading the next speed limit and turning off reading aloud road names... etc

  3. Custom speeds by user

    This is just effected to the current user only.

    Just like the emergency buttons in the default map view, individuals can pick a new button named "Custom Speed." From here, they can set a speed value and distance. Additionally, setting a time range would be even better.

  6. bike paths

    It would be cool if bike paths could be added and the category 'footpath' could be renamed to 'path', allowing one to select which type of path it is (footpath, bike path).

  7. Android \ help and feedback \ Report map issue \ Keyboard blocks the description box

    On the android app, under Help and Feedback, Report map issue... the text box for "Describe the issue" is blocked by the on-screen keyboard, so users cannot see what they are typing. The only way to see is to minimize the keyboard, but the minimize button becomes the "go back" button, so it is easy to accidentally go back, which wipes everything the user just entered in.

    I suggest the program developers added some blank space on the bottom of the page. This would allow the user to scroll down so that the "Describe the issue" text box does not…

  8. Set up a schedule

    It would be good to be able to set a schedule, for example; weekdays leaving between 08:00 - 08:30 set destination as Work, leaving between 17:00 and 17:30 set destination as Home. I always set destination for regular routes as Wase tells me of accidents, traffic (and speed cameras 😇) It would be good it it had a timeout too, so if the schedule hadn't been used for say 60 minutes it automatically cancels.

  10. Allow easier editing of new addresses with homes facing the "wrong way"

    Our development is a cul-de-sac with addresses that won't save in the map editor because the homes are all side-facing. This makes it difficult to share the address with guests if they aren't able to navigate there. Please allow all editors the ability to add their homes to the map.Thanks!

  11. Issue tracker, disabling automatic refresh after closing for example UR

    Issue Tracker is otherwise good but one part of it's behaviour is driving me nuts!

    When you close for example an UR it refreshes the list automatically -> You lose track where you were on the list. So you end up clicking same reports over and over again every time you close something...

    I liked the old UR list behaviour better when solved one's stayed on the list until you refreshed it, you never lost the track where you were on the list. And there is a refresh button on Issue Tracker so WHY does it also have to refresh…

  12. Oval roundabouts

    Hi,

    Is it possible to draw a roundabout not only in the horizontal or vertical oval direction, but in all directions?

    If you have a roundabout that runs from northeast to southwest oval, you can currently only mark it like this by hand.

    The inclusion of speed bumps on the map will be very important.

  14. Enforcement Trailer

    In my review I will only refer to the warning functions. The functionality is perfect for fixed speed cameras! However, mobile speed cameras (from the caddy or mobile) are almost never displayed in smaller cities because too few users report the speed camera and confirm it in the required time windows. A pity. The system could be improved here so that the speed camera is displayed immediately when it is first reported and remains there until a user reports that it has been removed.
    The app needs even more improvement when it comes to the enforcement trailers. Our city has…

  15. Ability to update or suggest speed limit change in areas where it is posted and different than the map shows

    There are places, within my area in Kansas, where the speed limit shown on the map does not match what is posted. Similar to being able to mark where police officers are, hazards in the road or even updating gas prices- there should be an option to click on the speedometer in the area and update it to match, OR submit this information in that spot when it’s found.

  16. More informative options for the GPS layer colours (colour by speed or age)

    Currently, the arrows on the GPS layer are coloured by direction. It would be useful for editors to be able to choose between that and at least two other options: colour by speed, to help editors understand historical traffic patterns and troubleshoot routing decisions; and colour by age, to help editors spot roads that may have been recently realigned or closed.

  17. Road height restriction.

    To display road height restrictions for all tp yoe of vehicles. Some waze users does not select type of vehicle. At certain road, there are height restriction, if there is a notification when waze navigate trhough fastest routes it would be helpful for drivers.

    also when slippery road conditions emerges. now there are a bunch of the same warnings when a construction expands or changes.

    also to be able to write a custom note. pointed to MCs or LKWs or similars.

  19. Inserire una sezione dedicata direttamente nell’app di Waze in cui vengono inseriti tutti i dati dei viaggi precedenti velocità,traffico,ec.

    La mia idea è quella di poter inserire una sezione facile e intuitiva direttamente nell’applicazione Waze per poter vedere tutti i dati inerenti ai viaggi precendenti, potendo vedere la velocità, possibili infrazioni, dati sul traffico e gli spostamenti dovrebbero essere visibili direttamente sulla mappa, sarebbe ancora meglio poter andare ad individuare tutti questi dati direttamente in un punto specifico del percorso, infine sarebbe opportuno inserire il resoconto completo di ogni singolo viaggio, spero di avervi dato un consiglio utile,
    Gabriele

  20. Show stop points in the House Numbers layer

    The House Numbers layer currently displays only the location of the HN, but not the stop point on the related segment. In HN editing mode, when you select the HN, the stop point also becomes visible, with a dotted line from the HN to the stop point. Suggestion is to display the stop point and the dotted line as part of the House Numbers layer, even when not in HN editing mode. (This might either be visible only at a high-enough zoom level, such as 18, or be an option that the user could enable from the layers menu.)
