  2. Giving option to chose if place would be visible on map or not

    Please allow to chose whether place will be visible in application or not.

    Currently places larger then 500m2 are automatically visible, but many times it is easier to map with area than with point. Sometimes points are hardly visible due to color, zoom level etc...

  3. Include "Electronic Fence" as an option on radars.

    In Brazil, several cities are implementing a security system called "Electronic Fencing", whose objective is to monitor city traffic, in addition to detecting stolen vehicles. However, the community has used "Speed Radar" signage to indicate where the electronic fence cameras are located, confusing many day-to-day users, who think it is a speed camera.

  4. message of update request appear clearly when open the app

    in wme when we ask reporter about somethink, only 5% replay, I think there is a problem with people interaction, so it is better to show the users the message directly when open the app

  5. A better separation between different road types in the layers panel

    When working on complex junctions, tunnels, train tracks, and pedestrians, and when all of them are in the same area, the map becomes a real mess and is hard to work with. I suggest adding additional layers to toggle off the visibility of road types and a layer to hide tunnels (or change their transparency at least and make them unselectable and disable snapping).

    Take a look at this picture, and you'll immediately understand the issue.

  7. Warning to slow down for roads where horses are ridden on the road.

    Motorists must exercise caution and reduce speed on roads frequented by horse riders, where sharing the road with vehicular traffic is common. These areas may comprise only segments of a roadway, often serving as passages for riders and their horses to access nearby nature trails.

    The failure to slow down poses a grave danger to riders when vehicles pass by at excessive speeds. Such reckless behavior significantly heightens the risk of severe and catastrophic accidents involving riders, horses, and motorists alike.

  8. I am the GIS Analsyt for Saluda County, SC and I am looking for a way to share my road centerline and address point databases with Waze.

    I just completed a readdressing project where our entire unincorporated area of our county was readdressed. I would like to be able to submit the current databases to Waze so that correct information is in the Waze maps. I can't find anywhere to do that.

  9. Ability to select long stretches of road

    A feature that would allow defining a start and an end point and which would automatically select the road between them would be very helpful. There is somtimes a need to select a length of road in the tens or even hundreds of kilometres. (The alt-click trick doesn't work for such long distances.)

    Two use case examples:

    1) RTC on long stretch of highway

    There have been several highway closures due to winter storms recently. Selecting the entire road to be closed requires lots of panning and selecting individual segments, which is very time-consuming.

    2) Making changes to long stretches…

  10. Add the ability to edit improper road closures, such as flooding on one end only.

    Some roads are flooded at one end, but open to residents on the other side, yet the closure lists the entire road as closed. This is a disservice to the residents living on open sections.

    Add gas station lists to the navigation that belong to tank24, for example, in order to plan the route according to the gas stations.

  13. Exempting some editors from waiting for changes to be applied to the map

    Hi .
    I don’t know if Waze can exempt some editors who dedicated their lives to editing from the 24-hour waiting period for changes.
    Several reasons support this idea:
    such as editors having limited time due to family and work commitments.
    Some actions require immediate attention, and exceptions could enhance map accuracy, accelerate change application, and impress users with faster updates, attracting new users.

    Your thoughts stemmed from adding a Gate to a mall, experiencing instant change app, prompting the idea of applying this efficiency to the entire map.

    thanks!

  14. Make RPPs a bright pink

    Change the colour of the RPP from a camouflaged dusky pink (same shade used to literally camouflage reconnaissance Spitfires in WWII) to a bright pink like #fa0584 to make it more visible in urban backgrounds.

  15. A maioria das cidade do Brasil tem diversos QUEBRA-MOLAS que não são padronizados, muito menos sinalizados. Sugiro notificação para eles

    A maioria das cidades do Brasil tem diversos QUEBRA-MOLAS que não são padronizados, muito menos sinalizados. Levando uma infinidade de transtornos aos condutores, seja danificando o veiculo, seja causando até um possível acidente, caso o veiculo venha em velocidade e ao passar por esse mesmo quebra-molas venha perder o controle causando assim um acidente, que pode ser leve ou fatal

  16. Speed pumps alert

    Lots of speeding pumps are not correctly feasible, would be real helpful if we can add report to the map as well

  17. Add apple Music on Android

    So I use Apple Music on my Samsung s22 Ultra which is an android device (I can't imagine that I'm the only person who dose this). So integration with Apple music on Android would be amazing

  18. Use Paths or Restricted Areas to create drive through restriction

    Amount of residential areas where drive through is forbidden is increasing everywhere. I was wondering could either Paths or Restricted areas have an extra setting "Not allowed to drive through" and by setting it router would prohibit such routes. Paths would work on smaller areas but in bigger ones would have to be set with Restricted area.

  20. Issue tracker, one more filtering option needed

    To be able to follow resolving rates it would be great if you could add one more filter, Solved / Not Identified / Both. Going through those one by one to find out percentage of solved issues is quite a job, this would help a lot.
