  2. Diversion recommended by the road manager due to a closed road

    It could be beneficial to add one or more diversions for a closed road. I'm referring to the diversions implemented by road managers in case of construction work, for example. These diversions would help guide drivers onto 'safe' roads rather than small roads that are not suitable for heavy traffic

  3. Remember "Update results when map moves" setting

    When checking/unchecking "Update results when map moves", the setting does not persist upon refresh. It would be nice to have this setting remembered when it's checked/unchecked.

    (there is a workaround by clicking filter->Apply, but it isn't obvious that this is necessary)

  5. Average Speed Camera Location

    Give the ability to pinpoint the location of the camera's that are being used for ASC's.

    It adds another layer of information (besides the speed check zone announcement) to the map and avoids users reporting these ANPR-camera's as regular speed camera's.

  6. Disable Permanent Hazards on Non-Driveable Roads and Pedestrian Paths

    Disable the ability for permanent hazards to be snapped to and/or placed on non-driveable roads (runway and railroad) and pedestrian paths (routable, non-routable, and stairway) in WME. PHs intended for driveable roads at junctions with these road/path types can be accidentally placed on the incorrect non-driveable segment. While easy to check and correct when placing, this could preemptively prevent mistakes.

  8. Allow Waze to access Google location history

    Especially for new editors, it would be handy to be able to let Waze read your Google location history (or have a way to import it manually) so that it can use that to establish your "area". You wouldn't technically be allowing people to expand their "areas" to places they haven't already been, just giving Waze a second source of data to look at. As a new editor in a US state that is more on the rural side, this would be quite handy, as my area currently represents a small portion of the "area" I'm familiar with and this…

  9. Ai integration

    Using Google's Gemini it could predict potential traffic based on wether conditions saying that this route will be faster because it's going to rain in 5 minutes and traffic will emerge badly. Or a more intelligent rerouting system that ai thinks is best. Or a ai road assistant for spastic questions like: find me the nearest gym that's not packed right now. Or find me food nearby without wait times.

  10. Offline Downloads by state

    Google maps let's you download offline maps by area but I think if a offline map feature was added it should be by state because it would be convenient for people doing long cross country road trips.

  11. Pouvoir choisir aller simple ou aller/retour lorsqu'on saisi une adresse

    Pouvoir choisir aller simple ou aller/retour dans la planification d'un trajet en choisissant l'heure "Aller" et l'heure "retour" quand on saisi une adresse. Cette option permettrait de voir le temps de trajet pour un aller retour. Il m'ai arrivé de louper un RDV car j'ai mis 2 fois plus de temps pour faire le retour par rapport à l'aller

  13. Acknowledge really steep gradients in mapping

    I drove to and from Lake District this weekend and there was a road with a sign that restricts it to only 'light vehicles and motorcycles' as well as no tracffic at all in winter conditons. It was a 30%/1:3 gradient and in perfect conditions my front wheels were slipping going up the slope. Any heavier cars may struggle, especially if it rains. There should be an option to avoid these sort of roads or for editors to atleast be able to add permanent hazards.

  14. Issue Tracker Saved Filter: Should be able to modify/edit an already saved filter

    I should be able to modify or edit an already saved search.

    When saving a new filter, a dropdown of saved searches should be displayed, and if one is selected, an overwrite warning should appear. This should be alongside a "create new filter" option.

  15. Issue Tracker: Stop defaulting to All Issues - remember last saved filter selected

    If you don't have a Pinned Save Filter, Waze should remember the last Save Filter selected rather than reverting back to "All Issues".

    If I'm working on a Saved Filter, and need to refresh, it's more than likely I want to continue working on that same filter afterwards.

  16. New road type needed between ST to OR

    Passive road type

    Passive mean the penalties attribute doesn't need to use unpaved option.
    And MAY use penalties state similar to PLR

    Most of the road actually vehicles worthy but not qualified as Street (ST) or Off-road/Not maintained (OR supposed for 4X4)

    Most of it drivable and may be the most important route for local or user that knew the road.

    Why this passive RT needed? Majority of user not even know the unpaved switch exists,
    so do to differentiate the unpaved segment shown in apps, this creates complexity for the user to use Waze very well.
    Even with unpaved…

  17. Move Ferry, Railroad and Runway/Taxiway road types away from road type fast selection buttons

    Those mentioned road types are about as rarely needed as the walking trail so moving those away from the normal road type selection buttons would be reasonable, there's no sense to keep those there. Maybe make submenu of those + Walking trail to that part of Unify Action Area?

    This would have 2 benefits, it saves a little more of that limited space on left panel and also it helps to prevent accidental clicks which change road type and may go unnoticed when editor hits Save.

  19. MyRadar weather integration

    Partnering with a quality weather app like MyRadar would be very helpful for not only motorcyclists but for choosing routes on longer trips.

  20. Enable smooth, kinetic panning of the map when using keyboard keys, disable for when using a mouse

    When using keyboard keys to pan the map, the map chops in the desired direction. This should be a smooth, kinetic movement. When using a mouse, the map will sometime move with kinetic movement if the mouse is in motion when the drag-click is released. This should be an option that can be enabled or disabled by the editor as a preference.
