Sunrise/sunset vs absolute times for restrictions
Some roads have driving restrictions based on the local sunrise/sunset times, which are difficult to map even somewhat accurately as a series of consecutive restrictions with absolute start/end times.
Being able to set a single year-round restriction using a "sunrise" or "sunset" option to set the start/end times, and leaving it up to the routing server to determine what the actual start/end times are for each restriction based on the current date and coordinates of the restricted segments, could therefore be useful.

Allow taking a Place picture from Streetview
Requirements: the Streetview panel is open and the place layer is on
Then: allow creating a box on the Streetview panel. When a box is drawn add a bar saying: now select a place to apply this picture.
Add an X on the box to delete it. Allow the user to resize the box.
Set a minimum size and a fixed ratio (the one used by the client) for a decent resolution.
Drawing a new box removes the previous one if present.If then the user clicks on a place, ask him:
"would you like to set this selection as…

As mention in the post, this is something that we won’t do, as these images are copy righted.

SUG: possibility of applying a closure for a certain type of vehicle and not for others, for example: closures only for taxis.

We do have thinking processes of making the restrictions closer to real time, but nothing concrete for now. -
Option to avoid streets with steep hills
Please include option to avoid steep hills. With lockdown, driving isn’t an everyday thing so driving a manual car is getting harder and harder.

ניווט ומיפוי גשרים
אהלן, אני איתי בוקעי, ולפני כחודש עלה לי רעיון שיכול בעיניי לעזור לנהגי משאיות וגררים גדולים, הרעיון הוא שכאשר אתה מתחיל את הנסיעה או מוריד את האפליקציה, ומכניס בקטגוריה של כלי רכב: משאית או כלי רכב גדול מאוד אחר, הוא גם יכניס את גובה הרכב שלו.
וכל פעם שהרכב ייתקרב לגשר יודיעו לו באפליקציה על התקרבות לגשר, ואת הגובה של הגשר, ואם אפילו אפשר לבדוק מתחת לאיזה גשרים הוא לא יכול לעבור ובככה לחסוך הרבה בעיות נהיגה ובנוסף להעיר את המודעות של נהגים אלה לגובה רכבם, במידה ושכחו להוריד את המנוף או נוסעים עם חלק מהרכב מורם, ובכך אני מקווה…10 votes -
100 gas, fuel station price list update suggestions
Hello dear Waze Team,
I am contacting you because I’d like to suggest some features to be added. As I am a gasoline car user who always fills her car with 100 octane gas, I’d like to see prices of that as well in the price list at fuel stations. I’d also add a menu for updating prices by seeing the info page of the station.
Thank you for your consideration.
All the best,
Hanna

Possibility of planning the fastest route between many destination points. Possibility that delivery person from all kinds will enjoy it
Planning a trip to a large number of destinations, for example for delivery person..
at this time, can serch route for one destination and add 1 stop to the way.
My idea is that it will be possible to put a lots of destination points and waze will calculate the fastest route between all points.9 votes -
אפשרות לתכנון המסלול המהיר ביותר בין הרבה נוקודות יעד. אפשרות ששליחים מכל התחומים יהנו ממנה
תכנון נסיעה למספר רב של יעדים, למשל בשביל שליחים..
כרגע בוויז אפשר לתכנן נסיעה ליעד אחד ומקסימום להוסיף עוד עצירה אחת בדרך.
הרעיון שלי הוא שיהיה אפשר להכניס המון נקודות יעד ושוויז ישכלל את הנתונים ויעדכן במסלול הכי מהיר לעבור בין כל הנקודות.
בעיקר ישמש את כל השליחים שצריכים בזמן הכי מהיר לעבור

Set GPS point color by age in WME
Please set the color of GPS points in WME by age instead of direction, The direction is already indicated by the direction of the arrow. Editors need to know how old the tracks are to see changing traffic patterns.

Display the edit history of map comments
Currently, WME only shows the date the map comment was created and then the date it was last edited. The details in the history pane that is shown for places and road segments is not currently available for map comments.

First-Time WME Login Tour / Tutorial
Create a tour/tutorial screen that pops up when a user logs in to the editor for the first time. The screen would be greyed out except for highlighted areas, where a chat bubble would explain what that button/area in the editor is for. It would also provide the means to have the editor engage the community through the forum or Wazeopedia.
For example:
- "This is the layers button. You can turn on extra layers to see roads, places, comments from other editors, etc."
- "This area contains a feed of map content, your recent drives and editable area, and…6 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Retroalimentación para usuarios.
Saludos.
Considero interesante la posibilidad de comunicar a los usuarios que agregan lugares, fotos y sugerencias, el poder poner en su conocimiento la razón por la cual el editor no aprobó su su lugar, foto o sugerencia.

Subway station elevation
There should be a feature that would enable editors to include the elevation of a subway station as they can do with PLAs.

Hyphenated house numbers
The Waze Map Editor should add support for addresses with hyphenated house numbers like most of the addresses in Queens. Without hyphenation, addressing is less accurate than it should be.

Multiple sets of hours
Add the capability for editors to add multiple sets of hours for an establishment. This feature would be especially beneficial for banks and pharmacies. At banks, ATMs are often open 24/7, while human tellers, consultants, notaries, and other banking personnel are not at banks 24/7. At pharmacies, the convenience store and the pharmacy itself mostly have different hours. Finally, there are some establishments with delivery hours and/or drive-thru hours that differ from the establishment's standard operating hours.
