  2. Sugestões para otimizar o processo de edição de segmentos no WME

    Gostaria de compartilhar algumas sugestões para melhoria do Waze Map Editor (WME), baseadas na experiência diária como editor ativo. Acredito que essas ideias podem ajudar a tornar o processo de edição mais ágil, eficiente e menos repetitivo, beneficiando toda a comunidade.

    Seleção múltipla com o mouse: Permitir que o editor selecione vários segmentos de uma só vez arrastando o cursor (como uma caixa de seleção). Isso tornaria mais fácil aplicar alterações em massa.
    Pré-configuração de segmentos: Criar uma funcionalidade onde o editor possa definir previamente as configurações (tipo de via, sentido, velocidade, regras de trânsito) antes de iniciar a criação…

  3. Registered adress for work-study student

    It could be cool if you can add school next to the home and work registered places on your Waze for student who work and go to school. I know that you can add a place but just a cool small shortcut to do that

  4. Spike Risk Area Alert

    I’d like to propose a new community-reportable hazard feature for Waze specific to South Africa’s growing road safety issue.

    Over the past few years, there has been a serious increase in criminal incidents involving metal spikes being placed on roads especially on poorly lit highways and rural routes at night. Criminals use these spikes to cause tire blowouts or immobilize vehicles, forcing drivers to stop and then robbing or attacking them.

    Why Waze Users Need This:
    Many Waze drivers rely on Waze to avoid police traps, traffic, and accidents. Being able to mark or receive warnings about known “spiking hotspots”…

  5. Create a separate field for road numbers

    Whilst the addition of road shields has been excellent, I do think there should be a separate road number category with the road shield only applying to that instead of the street/alternate names. This will allow for a more accurate result with any addresses that are on roads that have a designated number as well as keeping consistency as sometimes the same address can apply to two different road types.

    There had previously been discussions in the UK Waze community Discord regarding road numbers and only using them in the alternate address field. Currently this proposal is on hold due…

  6. Save speed history

    Got into a run in with an aggressive cop said I was speeding and other bs, my Waze app was on, it would be the best if I could have seen the history of speed bc I genuinely don't believe I was speeding or it was a fair stop.

  7. Apple Calendar Integration for Smart Navigation Suggestions

    I would like to request an integration between Waze and Apple’s native Calendar app. If I have events scheduled with associated locations, Waze should be able to access this information and proactively suggest navigation — similar to how it currently suggests driving to “Home” or “Work”.

    In Apple CarPlay, there is already a one-tap button to start navigation to Home or Work without opening any menu. This same functionality could be extended to also suggest navigation to the location of the current or upcoming calendar event.

    This automation would significantly enhance the user experience and allow Waze to better integrate…

  8. Filter Segment Closures

    It would be great to have the option to filter closures on a segment. e.g. Hide all finished by default, only display active closures, only display upcoming closures etc

  10. Feature Proposal: Visual Markers for Start and End of Average Speed Zones

    Dear Waze Team,

    We are writing to you on behalf of the community of volunteer map editors and Waze app users in the Czech Republic. We would like to propose a new feature that, in our opinion, would significantly refine and clarify the display of average speed camera zones on the map.

    Currently, we lack an effective way to visually mark the precise start and end points of an average speed zone on the map. We therefore propose two possible solutions:

  12. Weitere Einschränkungen für Straßen ermöglichen

    Es gibt wichtige Einschränkungen wie: Maximal zulässige Gesamtmasse eines Fahrzeugs, Maximale Fahrzeughöhe, Verbot für bestimmte Fahrzeugklassen (z.B. LKW) . Diese sollten über den Editor eingegeben werden können.

  13. Indicate tunnels in the map

    When work in progress associated with the vicinity of tunnels, a clear indication on the map of the tunnel precise location can help identifying if the danger is associated while exiting the tunnel or further away.
    This make a huge difference in the attention and help ease the driving.

  15. Streamlining changes for adding house numbers

    I'd like to suggest two related changes regarding the addition of house numbers. These are small changes, but in UI design, frictions like this can add up when one is performing the same action over and over.

    1. Always keep the text field active when selecting a house number point

    After clicking to add a house number, the text field to enter the number is automatically active and can be typed in (which is great!) But, when clicking and dragging either the house number itself or the entry point, the cursor goes away, and one has to click the number field…

  16. Add date of aerial imagery to WME

    Request that the WME aerial imagery display the date that it was taken.

    Street View in WME shows the date and you often can see that one direction is more recent than the other direction on a divided road. The more recent photos can show the updated Lane Guidance, Speed Limit, etc changes.

    Having the same ability for the aerial imagery would be great.

    Bonus points to show the date for each of the Additional imagery options.

    Note the date of the aerial imagery is available on Google Earth by using the lat/long, which some editors do to help sort…

  17. Add "Any date after today" for age of new aerial data requests (Request updated imagery)

    BLUF Recommend adding an option for “Any date after today” Especially for new construction.

    Thank you for adding the Request updated imagery straight from WME to the WME Beta site. It allows one to request imagery that is 1 year, 6 months, 1 month. To improve the process it would be great to add "Any date after today". For construction the new configuration may have occurred within the last month or significant changes were made within the last month (lane guidance painting, etc.

  18. rerouting

    n the city of arlington, texas today 6/11 at 11 am, the waze app failed to reroute thousands of drivers when the train broke down stranding thousands of drivers. Drivers should have been rerouted to 360 or to one of the 2 overpasses/
    2 over passes exist , 1 at the police station and one at division street. Why did the programmers not know this? thanks

  20. Show map error icon in the app / Kartenfehler Icon in der App anzeigen

    Report card error should be displayed as an icon in the app so that the sender can see that the card error has been transmitted and can also edit the comment by clicking on the icon to make it easier for the editor to solve the problem.

    Kartenfehler melden sollte als Icon in der App angezeigt werden, damit der Absender zum Einen sieht, dass der Kartenfehler übertragen wurde und zum Anderen den Kommentar pflegen kann durch Klick auf das Icon, um es dem Editor zu vereinfachen, das Problem zu lösen.
