More complexity for Residential place point house numbers
More Complexity was adder for House Numbers when using House numbering -feature. However, there is still restrictions when adding Residential place point.
Because It's not possible to use House numbering feature in country side where houses are far away from named road.
" As a WME user I want to add House number format for example 180-7 for residential place, in a case when houses are far away from named road"

Remove bots from the last editor's username (updated field)
Lately, the last editor who edited an object appears to be a bot. There are a few names for bots: "matching feed 1", "waze-maint-bot", "Avsil".
IMO only human editors should appear as the last editor in the "updated" field. For example, if someone uses a script to filter edits done in the previous month, the filter includes many edits done by a bot, which is not what the user wants to see. The bot's name hides the name of the last human editor.
It is suggested that bots will not appear in the "updated" field.7 votes -

Mark gas station brands as "Top Tier"
When refueling, many drivers are much more interested in fuel quality than in the specific brand. But at present, the Waze gas-station finder offers no means to limit searches by fuel quality.
Waze can solve this problem by supporting the identification of brands selling "Top Tier" gasoline. "Top Tier" is a consortium of vehicle manufacturers that approves certain gasoline brands as preferred for their engine designs (toptiergas.com).
"Top Tier" designation is associated with all stations selling certain brands and not with any individual station. I'm not sure what mechanism to suggest for Waze to support editing a brand-wide feature like…

Add entry point automatically for RPP and Point Pkace
Would it be possible to add entry points for RPPs and Pont Places automatically by default like for the HN?
Now after inserting the RPP or Point Place on the map, also bringing them closer to the relative segment, often Waze does not take you to the desired arrival point and so to solve the problem we have to manually insert the EPs.
I think it would be useful if it was automatically inserted by default as it already happens for HN, so the editor would immediately understand where the navigation will lead .
We will also fix the problem…46 votes -

Holiday based turn/traffic restrictions on Japan
Traffic/turn restrictions for holidays have not yet been implemented in Japan.
Please support Japanese national holidays.If Sunday becomes a national holiday, Monday falls under the holiday in lieu, etc. There are detailed rules. The dates that fall under holidays are listed in the following law
https://laws.e-gov.go.jp/law/323AC1000000178/Similar proposals outside of Japan have already been implemented and should be less burdensome.

Please can you introduce sub and sub-sub folders etc. for saved places.
It would be great to be able to have and categorise sub folders with labels such as restaurants, hospitals, friends, clients etc.. These might be further nested to a higher level by area, county or country for example.
It is really very cumbersome to scroll through hundreds of saved places to find the one I want. When I travel abroad I have different countries places all mixed together in one long list. With nested sub folders, finding a particular saved place could be done in mere seconds.6 votes -
Make U-turn segment length shorter to 10m.

Please make it 10m or between 10m and 16m.Thanks.

Mostrar la hora en primer plano como la hora de llegada
Debería mostrarse la hora local a un lado de la hora a la que llegarías a tu destino. Viajo en mi moto, siempre me surge ver la hora, y tengo que deslizar la barra de notificaciones del sistema para hacerlo. Es tedioso y muy molesto, seria genial que la hora se mostrase en primer plano

3D Maps
Implementation of 3D Maps
Proposal Overview:
I propose the integration of 3D maps into the Waze navigation app, enhancing the user experience and providing vital contextual information that improves navigation for drivers.Key Benefits of 3D Maps for Drivers:
Enhanced Spatial Awareness:
- Improved Orientation: 3D maps provide a more realistic view of the environment, helping drivers better understand their surroundings, especially in complex urban areas or mountainous regions.
- Landmark Recognition: Drivers can more easily identify landmarks and key points of interest (POIs), which can aid in navigation and make routes more intuitive.
Greater Route Clarity:
- Elevation Changes: 3D maps can…

Leader board changes
The leader board ranking should be updated automatically and not the day after.
The leader board should be split or selectable by points for edits only vs driving.
This should encourage new editors and let them see that their work reflects in a higher ranking (if they are sensitive for this) which isn't hijacked by people who are only driving.6 votes -
Avoid interstates only
Please keep the options you have and add an additional one where you can avoid the interstates only. There are times when you want to drive highways, freeways, etc. but avoid the interstates only.
