Dynamic edit quests
I think "edit quests" or "tasks" layer / feature should be added directly in the editor.
The system would automaticaly flag nearby roads that are missing speed limits or missing house numbers, or some other broken paths and show them as a "mission" - This gives new editors a clear roadmap to grind out edits and fixing missing local details while leveling up.

Preserve Permanent Hazards' Locations When Moving Road Segments
Quite often, accurately placed speed bumps and pedestrian crossings get displaced when the road segments they are located on are moved.
Please make speed bumps and pedestrian crossings retain their original geographic coordinates when the road segments they are associated with are moved, instead of automatically moving along with the segments.

Exportable History
With all the ride sharing and delivery companies, it would be helpful to be able to export travel history to create a reliable travel log. Date, start and end time, start and end location (would love specific addresses where possible), and distance traveled.

Variable Speed Limit Segment Attribute without Supporting VSLs
Currently, Waze does not support time-based speed limits or variable speed limits within the client. Implementing such a system alone is difficult, especially if variable speed limits are purely dynamic. However, I have noticed an existing feature that could be extended to partially support this functionality.
Whenever a user utilizes a roadway with dynamic tolling, their exist a feature within the toll pricing files that alerts motorist that prices may change in real time (and thus are directed to watch the signs for the correct price). I believe something similar for variable speed limits could be done using segment attributes.…

Add notes fields to map element history (Maybe move edit history and notes to its own tab too)
Add reason for editing and source(s) fields for map elements. (Also, maybe move the edit history to its own tab when a map feature is selected.)
With the increasing detail of the map to include many permanent hazards, in addition to the road segments, places layer, and map notes, it would be beneficial if an editor could include a blurb when creating or editing a map element with an explanation, reason, and optionally, public source for the change.
For example, in my area we have a ton of elements (school zones, cameras, hazards) that are being maintained by many editors.…

Fixed Speed Cameras, Traffic Lights, reporting Features
Give wazers the ability to report that there are fixed cameras at some locations and not only mobile police cameras. Also, we should be able to report that there are traffic lights here and there. There's an option to report a broken traffic light but wazers don't have the ability to report that this place has traffic light so we see it on the map. At each traffic light too, there are speed cameras so we should be able to report and get all these shown. when we choose fixed cameras they should be there permanently but mobile cameras means…

Filter Place Update Requests by Waze Username
Filter Place Update Requests by Waze Username
The Place Update Request (PUR) interface displays submissions in chronological order but does not provide a mechanism to filter requests by the username of the original submitter.
This makes it difficult for mentors and senior editors to locate and review submissions from specific users, particularly in areas with high volumes of PURs.
I'm proposing to introduce a "Submitted by" text filter in the User Feedback section of the PUR Issue Tracker
The filter should accept a Waze username and support both partial and exact matches through an optional Exact Match checkbox.
These are…

Feature Request – Increase the 10-Change Limit for “Suggest an Edit”
Background
Currently, Waze Map Editors can use the “Suggest an Edit” feature to propose changes to a segment that is locked at a higher level or otherwise outside their editing permissions. These suggestions can then be reviewed by an editor with the appropriate permissions, who can approve or reject the proposed changes.
However, the current limit of 10 changes per suggestion creates a significant challenge when editors need to make multiple corrections to a lengthy road segment.
The Issue
For example, consider a lengthy road segment that requires several corrections to its properties. An editor may need to update its…

Driving Personalities / Personalized Route Preferences
I'd love to see Waze introduce selectable driving personalities that determine how routes are calculated, based on how people actually prefer to drive.
For example, a Relaxed Driver personality could prioritize main roads, fewer turns, well-lit streets, and easier intersections, even if the trip takes a few minutes longer. Other personalities could prioritize the fastest route, avoiding difficult left turns, or staying on familiar roads.
This idea came to me while driving home through the country at night. I was only two turns away from a main road that would take me straight home, but Waze instead directed me through…

Informed alternative routes
Setting to inform us why we cant take our normal route, so if the road is closed, or car wreck on our normal route(work, etc..), don't just route to another way, TELL US WHY! We might leave later, we might go a slightly different way.

Verbesserungsvorschlag: Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen in Waze größer anzeigen
Liebes Waze-Team,
ich möchte vorschlagen, die Anzeige der Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen (Temposchilder) in der Waze-App zu vergrößern.
Die derzeitigen Schilder mit den zulässigen Höchstgeschwindigkeiten sind relativ klein und dadurch während der Navigation nicht immer gut erkennbar.
Es wäre sehr hilfreich, wenn man die Größe der Temposchilder individuell einstellen könnte, beispielsweise über eine Option in den Einstellungen. Dadurch könnten die angezeigten Geschwindigkeiten schneller und einfacher erkannt werden.
Besonders bei der Nutzung von Apple CarPlay wäre eine größere Darstellung sehr wünschenswert.
Vielen Dank für die Prüfung meines Verbesserungsvorschlags!
Freundliche Grüße

Add a "Boat Ramp" category in Waze Map Editor
Hello,
I would like to suggest adding a new category called "Boat Ramp" in Waze Map Editor.
Currently, when adding a place where boats can be launched into the water, we have to use the "Port, Marina" category, which is not always suitable.
There are many boat ramps along rivers and lakes that are not part of a port or marina.
This new category would help fishermen and boat owners easily find places where they can launch their boats.
Thank you!

Introduction of construction zones covering significant areas and time periods in WME
On various occasions, we editors come across large construction zones that are difficult for us to manage. Either they are very long, as on motorways, and in some cases extend over 10 km or more. Or they affect larger areas where, for example, residential quarters are being developed or streets within towns are being rebuilt.
In both cases, we editors are frequently faced with a large number of user requests. Entrances and exits – or roads in general – are reported as closed today, then as open again in two weeks’ time, whilst another road is reported as closed in…

Perda de rotas sem internet e atalhos para alertas
Reclamação e sugestões de melhorias – Perda de rotas sem internet e atalhos para alertas
Olá,
Gostaria de registrar uma reclamação e apresentar duas sugestões de melhorias que considero muito importantes para quem utiliza o aplicativo frequentemente em viagens.
Sou usuário do Waze, gosto muito do aplicativo e sempre tive preferência por ele. Viajo constantemente por diversas regiões do Brasil, muitas vezes por estradas que não conheço, e utilizo o GPS como principal ferramenta de orientação.
- Perda do trajeto ao tentar atualizar com sinal fraco de internet
Esse é, na minha opinião, um dos problemas mais graves do aplicativo.
