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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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 PLRMost 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…9 votes -
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.

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.

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.

Ability to select metric for distance tool and imperial for speed limits
This request is specific to the editor environment.
As I am in the UK, I must have speed limits in mph, so have no choice but to select Imperial in my settings.
However, this then causes the distance tool "Ruler" to measure in feet, however I want to measure in metres as that is what all the legal documents (Traffic Regulation Orders) show the new highway changes in.
At the moment, I am having to resort to google to translate the metres to feet value in order to use the Ruler, and would prefer it if Waze would show the…

Enhanced Dynamic Segment Creation and Editing
Dynamic Curve Adjustment:
I propose introducing a dynamic segment creation tool in the Waze Map Editor. This tool would allow users to create a segment by selecting the start point and the endpoint, and then dynamically adjusting the curve by dragging the segment with the mouse. Additionally, the properties menu would enable further adjustments, including angle degrees, after the segment has been created.
Users can click to set the start and end points of a segment.
The segment curve can be adjusted in real-time by dragging with the mouse, providing a more intuitive and precise way to shape roads.Copy…

Flagging matches with permanently closed venues
With the "Enhanced Matching" between Waze and Google venues going live, some Waze venues are matched with 'Permanently closed' place from Google Maps.
While these are accurate matches, we won't know these places are permanently closed until an editor interacts with the place or a user reports it to us.
My suggestion is to flag such matches to be reviewed by editors. A PUR or something like that.

Add oblique imagery (birds eye view) from GMaps to WME
To allow editors a more comprehensive view of an area and to provide an additional data layer of imagery, use the already-available oblique imagery from GMaps in WME.
Oblique imagery allows for a 360° view of a location so we would need a new icon to allow for cycling around the 4 'quadrants' of the imagery.

Max/Min Speed Limit
The idea is to display a minimum speed limit also in blue color with a maximum speed limit (already available on the map). Most of the main Highways in the UAE have max & min speed limits. You can get a fine for driving lower than minimum speed also. for eg. E11 (110/60), E311 AbuDhabi side (140/120)

Disable street name popups on the map when using Apple CarPlay?
I have a problem with the map when using Apple CarPlay. The car's display shows constantly changing large, annoying blocks (popups) with street names. Those blocks often fall over critical parts of the map I'm just driving to. That's why I can't see where I need to go on the map. For example, an upcoming intersection will be completely covered. I use the map with the setting to always keep north at the top (just in case that makes a difference).
My proposal is to create an option in the settings to enable and disable these blocks. This makes the…3 votes -
Make route color in Apple CarPlay adjustable
I have a problem with the contrast of the map when using Apple CarPlay. On my iPhone the contrast is excellent and the route I have to follow is easy to distinguish from the rest on the map.
On the display in the car, the contrast between the route to be followed and the other map elements appears to be very poor. This means you have to pay close attention to which line on the map is your route. As a result, attention is diverted too much from the road.
My proposal is to make the colors of the route…5 votes
