Pagar peaje por solo unos 200 metros de autorpista?
Todos los días me dirijo a mi casa por una calle a un costado de una autopista que tiene peaje, y cada día WAZE me recomienda pasar por la autopista que tiene un pórtico de peaje. El problema es que solo tendría que recorrer unos 200 metros de autopista y luego salir de inmediato.
¿Es posible que exista un criterio de definición de ruta evaluando no solo el tiempo de ruta, sino que además evalúe el pago a realizar en el los peajes según la distancia que uno recorre dentro de la autopista? Pôr ejemplo, que elija la autopista si…

Arrival time for calendar events
When adding events from my calendar, Waze assumes I want to arrive at the event start time. This is mostly not true; I usually want to arrive 10-15 minutes early, to give me time to park up (and in the case of shifts at work, make a drink before I get started!)
I would like an option in the app settings to always arrive X minutes before event start time (with a drop-down menu allowing me to choose from eg 5, 10, 15 minutes).
Alternatively, when confirming the address for a calendar event, an option offering "arrive before event start…

WME - Default Category List.
Hi.
Please, allow us to change the default - WME Category choices in the drop-down menu to our own preference. As for example we do not use any of the "parent" categories, so it would be great if we could choose what we want making it easier for us to create places.
Thanks!

Waze - Version Release (Number).
Hi.
It would be a nice touch to add the - Waze Version Release, under (Waze Map Editor), so users can see what version they are running and if any bugs are needed to be reported, they can using that version as a reference?
Thanks!

Add Globe View from Google Maps to the Waze Map Editor.
There is a vast difference between having Globe View toggled on and off. If it was added, it would allow new edits to be made with the ever changing infrastructure of the world. I've noticed myself that I was unable to make some changes due to outdated satellite imagery through the map editor, however I am able to see changes much more clearly with it toggled through Google Maps directly.
Since Waze is now owned by Google, would this be a hard thing to port over to the map editor?

I am the GIS Analsyt for Saluda County, SC and I am looking for a way to share my road centerline and address point databases with Waze.
I just completed a readdressing project where our entire unincorporated area of our county was readdressed. I would like to be able to submit the current databases to Waze so that correct information is in the Waze maps. I can't find anywhere to do that.

TIPO DE VIA "MUNICIPAL"
Seria interessante criar via "MUNICIPAL" visto que tem estradas de dominio federal e estadual, mas não tem as vias municipais que são pavimentadas, estas não podem ser consideradas "ruas" visto que são de alta velociade e ligam zonas rurais e pequenas vilas, e não são estaduais pois estão *** responsabilidade do municipio bem como a manutenção e construção.

Keep me logged into the WME
Would it be possible to keep me logged into the WME once i logged in, via cookies and cache. Currently i'm getting logged out of my session as soon as i close the tab. Even worse when i get a discord notification on my phone about a closure and i wanna close a road i need to login again there too each time and the UI and workflow is very cumbersome.
In short would it be possible that once i'm logged into the WME on a browser to stay logged in until i log out, or do a cache clear…

Exempting some editors from waiting for changes to be applied to the map
Hi .
I don’t know if Waze can exempt some editors who dedicated their lives to editing from the 24-hour waiting period for changes.
Several reasons support this idea:
such as editors having limited time due to family and work commitments.
Some actions require immediate attention, and exceptions could enhance map accuracy, accelerate change application, and impress users with faster updates, attracting new users.Your thoughts stemmed from adding a Gate to a mall, experiencing instant change app, prompting the idea of applying this efficiency to the entire map.
thanks!

Adding a Fire Maltese Cross for fire activity on the roadways. IE. Car Fires, Brush Fire etc.
As a career firefighter with major highways surrounding our jurisdiction. with the usual bad direction we get, we often open and rely on Waze if and when we get called for a car accident. however, we can use a feature for car fires, car accidents, and brush fires along the highways. etc.

Opening hours, by appointment only
Looks useful to me to add the option 'By appointment only' to 'Opening hours' in WME. You still need to choose the days on which an appointment can be made. It is important that the telephone number is stated correctly in the data.

Waze editors should have a method to solicit information from Waze users who navigate via a specific road or POI
It would be helpful to be able to request information from users who drive on specific road, or drive to/drive past a specific POI. The Waze app users should be prompted for specific information such as :-
Road 1) Whats the name of this road?
2) Is this road paved? What is the quality of the road?
3) Possibility to submit a photo of the road?POI 1) Submit a photo for this POI
2) Submit facilities available at this POI
3) Submit hours of operation etc for this POI
4) Submit a telephone number for this POIits much…

Manage closures in the Issue Tracker menu
Live closures are one of the most important contributions that editors can make to the Waze map
The functionality of viewing past closures on the map has recently been added, which adds complexity to the view.
This suggestion involves managing closures from the Issue Tracker, allowing you to filter those that have been completed, those that are about to expire, or those within a period of time; or by zones in the same way as the UR, PUR or MP
I guess this sug includes this one: https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59225-map-editor-suggestions/suggestions/47514620-show-only-active-closures and this one https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59225-map-editor-suggestions/suggestions/45584869-move-closures-history-to-the-closures-tab143 votesThanks for submitting a suggestion! Closures will likely not be part of the Issue Tracker but we are looking into other solutions.

Show only active closures
In the layers menu, under closures, there should be an "Only active" option. When this is enabled, only active closures will be shown in the WME. This would make the WME look "cleaner" and uncluttered.

Speed pumps alert
Lots of speeding pumps are not correctly feasible, would be real helpful if we can add report to the map as well
