по-големи улици
Предложението ми е, да се направи по-зуумната картата, така, че иконата на автомобила да се показва точно в платното за движение. А не както в момента да се носи над пътя! Това б било доста поориентиращо какато и по-красиво изглеждащо/

Link Google place to a residential place in Waze
Many addresses in the Google Maps are marked far away from real locations, and it badly affects user experience in Waze. Today we only can link such wrong addresses to public places in WME. It will be more reasonable to allow linking them to residential places.

Issue Tracker: better filtering of Map Suggestions
In the issue tracker, we can filter Map Suggestions by status: Open, Closed, or All, with a few subcategories under Closed. However, "Open" suggestions include (a) suggestions with status "Lapsed" and (b) suggestions that can't be accepted or rejected because "Change already applied to the map." Please add filters that would allow us to exclude (a) and/or (b) from the Open category.

Conduciendo con ruteo, poder cerrar calles laterales, o transversales a la ruta
Cuando conduces con ruteo, y cruzas una calle cerrada pero que no aparece como cerrada en la pantalla, solo puedes cerrar el segmento siguiente en tu ruta, para poder hacer ese cierre, debes "detener" tu ruteo, ahí empezar el proceso de cierre donde sí te aparece en la pantalla todas las posibilidades y hacer el cierre. Luego hay que volver a solicitar nuevamente ruta a nuestro destino. Si bien como está ahora facilita cerrar lo que tenemos delante de forma muy agil, acceder a esa posibilidad estaría interesante, ayudaría a mucha gente, no solo a los que usan Waze sin…

New icon
Hello, I think you should enable a new option in the weather section for dust and low visibility, in high humidity this happens when the air becomes full of dust and dust reduces the visibility. And the option for the police, the police who put the speed camera in the police car and every time it is placed somewhere, there should be a special icon for the moving speed camera. Currently there is only a police icon for the speed camera, it would be much better if it had its own icon

Multi-Select Option for Place Services
Current Functionality:
Services for a place are set with a yes/no checkbox. If a place has a service, editors check the box. Otherwise, the service's box is left unchecked.Proposed Functionality:
Services for a place are set with choice chips for Yes, Unknown, and No. Unknown is selected by default. If a place has a service, editors select Yes. If a place doesn't have a service, editors select No. If editors are unsure or otherwise don't check, the default Unknown is left selected.Reasoning:
The current system is somewhat ambiguous for editors. My own interpretation and expectation of the current…3 votes -
Adding a comment when requesting new aerial images
When L6 editors request up-to-date images for the WME, it would be useful if they could write a comment (for example, for whom they have requested the images) and this comment should also reappear when they get the notification that the new images have been provided.
It could also be helpful to have access to a list or map showing the areas that the new images were requested for so that new images are not requested for the same area by different editors.

An option to turn off camera alerts on daily routes
It would be useful for the app to have an option provided to users to turn off speed camera/ average speed zone alerts on daily routes where the user would already know the locations of.

Enhancing Waze with User-Contributed Neighborhood Names
As an avid user of Waze, I've experienced firsthand the convenience and efficiency this remarkable app offers. From navigating traffic congestion to discovering new routes, Waze has revolutionized the way we travel. However, there's always room for improvement, and I believe one feature that could significantly enhance the app is the ability for members to add neighborhood names to city maps.
Why This Feature Matters:
Local Insights: Who better to accurately name and define neighborhoods than the residents themselves? By allowing users to contribute neighborhood names, Waze can tap into local knowledge, ensuring that the app reflects the true identity…

Message from a user reporting the end of a closure, does not indicate the location
As a map editor, we can sometimes insert numerous closures in one day, due to construction or traffic events.
When a user reports that a closure is no longer active, I, as the editor who created it, receive a message in my application. However, this message only indicates the information that the user reported. Example: “This road is not closed”
This does not provide additional information, such as the name of the road or even the location’s PL. If I create a lot of closures, I can’t identify which location it is.4 votes -
Waze debería indicar la distancia a la localidad más próxima que esté sobre la ruta.
Waze debería indicar la distancia a la localidad más próxima que esté sobre la ruta, incluyendo su nombre. Actualmente, sólo indica la distancia a la próxima rotonda o bifurcación.

Unsaved edits - apply to map without saving
Related to this announcement:
if there were an option to simply “apply” the unsaved edits to the map, without saving them (basically treat the unsaved edits as a draft) that would be awesome. Sometimes the browser crashes or something gets in a weird state while doing a complex edit (common use case where this happens a lot is dividing roads for the falcon snapper) and I have to start over.
I think the times when I have a crash in a place where I'm actually ready to save my changes are much rarer than when I'm in the middle…

Layer toggling keyboard shortcut for Hazards
There are some discrepancies between the shortcuts and the actual Layer menu when it comes to Hazards. Currently, there are shortcuts to toggle Speed cameras and Railroad crossings only.
However, there are other Hazards with more frequent instances on the map that could also benefit from keyboard shortcuts. In my opinion, a single toggle for the entire Hazards section would be sufficient. Nonetheless, I'd welcome additional individual toggles along with the general one.

Add more keyboard shortcut options for drawing Hazards
Right now, we've got a long list of Permanent Hazards available to map, but only two (Speed bump and Speed camera) have assigned keyboard shortcuts.
Having more keyboard shortcuts would be super helpful for productivity. Personally, I think the default shortcut for each hazard could be blank/none, so users can set their own preferred keys for the hazards they use most often.

Add keyboard shortcut for Permanent Hazard Direction
At the moment, the UX isn't very user-friendly when it comes to selecting the direction for Permanent Hazards. We have to choose between A/B without actually seeing where A or B are..! 🙄
A/B are displayed only when segments is selected, but hazard direction can only be adjusted when hazards themselves are selected.
Since we already have a shortcut to 'Toggle segment direction', could we extend this functionality to Hazards as well?

Crosswalk Hazard
Adding the feature to mark crosswalks that require you to yield to pedestrians. In many of our towns there are random crosswalks that are not part of an intersection that state law requires drivers to yield to any pedestrians that walk out into it. It would be nice to have a hazard similar to the speed bump hazard to mark these locations.
