  1. ability to write/entered info while reviewing images in UR

    Hi
    It is difficult when accepting user requests (if they contain a picture) and a name is not entered, for example.. to transfer the name from the shop board and to write at the same time.. because the way pictures are displayed in the map editor prevents you from writing if you only display any A picture, why can't we write in the side panel of the information and at the same time look at the pictures "the store's billboard" and transfer any information from it so that everything is added accurately?

  2. Give the user the possibility to set the start and end point of construction sites

    Give the user the possibility to set the start and end point of construction sites. With that WAZE and they community know how long the construction sites will be (and can be better calculated with the speed limit). In addition, if an accident happend, you know where it happend within the construction sites and if it makes sense to avoid it, if possible.

  3. Unique alerts

    Enable editors (with minimum rank or role) to write unique verbal alerts on the map. Example: when crossing a country border, the app could alert users to get their documents ready. Another possible use is for agricultural and other permanent interior checkpoints.

  4. Trajectcontrole

    Hallo,

    Zou het ook mogelijk kunnen zijn om bij trajectcontrole een andere kleur weg te maken zolang de trajectcontrole duurt?

  7. In the APP: Allow continued writing after selecting a suggestion when writing addresses.

    When typing in the app, you suggest what i want to write below the input box. That's all fine, except if i select one of your suggestions it doesn't let me continue writing (rather, it uses the selected option directly). This is very frustrating since most of the times your suggestion is only almost correct (lacking house number, etc). It would be much better if your suggestion filled the input box and then let me continue writing before using the selection.

  9. giving User’s ability to include images with there reports

    Hi,
    I think it is good to give users the advantage of including images, whether by taking them through the app or fetching them from their gallery, as you know that the images explain a lot without the need for words, which is almost non-existent that the reporter responds after his report.

    thank you!

  10. New categories - apartment complex/building

    Add a new category for "apartment complex" that'd include multi-building condos and coops. The "apartment building" category would be for single-building condo or co-op companies.

  11. 2-way turn lane

    Add support for 2-way median turn lanes to WME lane guidance. Users would be prompted to use the left median lane (or something easier to comprehend).

  12. Photos in URs

    Enable Wazers to add photo and video attachments to their URs from the phone or live map. Photos of intersections would enable editors to solve problems more quickly, especially in rural areas where street view is sparse.

    Currently, some northeastern states let users send media via email, including the editor’s username in the subject line. This alternative would be easier for users and editors.

    Ideally, if a user sends inappropriate media, then the editor can forward it to their RC in-app and have them review. Then, the RC could decide next steps.

    Under this system, if a photo/video has illegal…

  13. Traffic Control Devices

    Enable editors to add traffic control devices to intersections like stop signs and traffic lights. This could help drivers navigate when there are few signs/lights.

    It’d also be helpful since many drivers make “landmarks” along the way. They’ll know to look for the stop sign in 1000 ft, not just to make a right in 1000 ft.

    I don’t think it makes sense to let phone users make these additions, though they can communicate through URs.

  14. Multiple Sets of Hours

    Enable Waze editors to add multiple sets of hours for a location. Example: a restaurant with drive-thru, eat-in, takeout, and delivery hours. Perhaps editors can add these sets of hours when they add the place attributes.

    Another example would be a gas station with a deli that has different hours from the rest of the station.

    I think adding sets of hours is too complicated for drivers; it should be reserved for editors if implemented, at least in the early stages.

  15. Gas station service level

    Enable editors to add gas station type (self-service, full-service, or either) when adding or modifying a gas station.

    On the client side, users should be able to select a preference for self-service or full-service in Settings > Gas stations. In most areas of the US, users don't know the service type until they reach the station.

  17. Road type per direction

    Allow us to set different road types for each segment direction. For example, driving A -> B can be opened for all and set as street, but driving B -> A is permitted only for small amount of people (private road).

  18. Lines on sections of roads with roundabouts!

    We urgently need to implement the ability to add lanes on sections of roads with roundabouts!
    There are many sections of roads with roundabouts that use multi-lane and different traffic lanes.
    This functionality is severely lacking.

  19. Different Street Names for Different Side

    WME should consider allowing editors to add street names and towns that apply along only one side of the street (instead of select one name as an alt name. Along town lines, street names can change from one side to the other. This would also eliminate the need to place residential place points on one side.

  20. WME Form autocomplete=off

    Disable the autocomplete in the forms in WME. Frequently while adding street information, Chrome attempts to offer up personal saved addresses for street names, etc. This covers over WME's street name suggestions and buttons. A simple fix would be using HTML autocomplete=off for form fields or the whole form would stop this from happening.
