Better gas station search
Currently when on a drive and I hit the gas station icon it searches along my route but will give me options that are over 100miles away. Usually when I go to search I want to find one soon and much closer. Also the gas prices that are listed on there and marked as updated same day have been very wrong. They need to get picture confirmation to ensure people are entering in the wrong amounts.

Allow reporting from iPhone while Waze is connected to CarPlay
I would like to request the ability to submit reports directly from the iPhone, even while CarPlay is active.
This would be useful for passengers or in situations where interacting with the CarPlay screen is not practical.7 votes -
Add edit ability to correct the way a street name in pronounced.
It would be nice if there was an edit option to correct the way a street name is mispronounced.

Sort traffic events alphabetically
(This idea was originally raised by kndcajun at the 2026 NA Mega Meet-up.)
When duplicating recurring traffic events, especially events that happen around the same areas and times every year, one needs to navigate page by page to find these traffic events. It would be helpful to have a feature where you could sort them alphabetically.
For example, New Orleans area has over 30 parades each Mardi Gras season. Each one has to be managed carefully, including finding last year's to duplicate, then updating for the new year with any changes.
Currently, scrolling down the list to find a specific…

Visual only Traffic Lights
Hi Waze Team and Community,
I’d like to suggest the implementation of a visual-only Permanent Hazard for traffic lights (eg. located at pedestrian crossings that are not part of an intersection or junction).
Currently, to map a traffic light, we often have to split segments to create a junction. However, on long roads with simple pedestrian crossings, "breaking" the segment can negatively impact routing data and unnecessarily complicate the map.
Having a specific "Traffic Light" hazard (similar to the "Red Light Camera" but without the enforcement/fine implication) would allow:
Better driver awareness of upcoming stops for pedestrians.
Cleaner map geometry,…7 votes -
New camera type: Illegal turn
The number of camera type have been increased lately which is good, but I miss an 'Illegal turn' camera type. Since we have red light cameras and stop sign cameras we also need an illegal turn one. These monitor wheter you make and illegal turn or in a multi-lane intersection you violate your lane's instructions (turn right from a straight only lane etc.)
I think these, just like the red light camers and bus lanes cameras are international.7 votes -
Clientview in WME
A function in WME, which allows to preview the view, as it looks on the client then.

Map Editor - More edit room than driving area
Allow editors to have more room to edit than just the area they recently drove. This would allow editors to help each other out better than they currently are. For example I'm a L1 and I've had multiple people help me and they couldn't help edit anything b/c they haven't been to my area which caused confusion when they tried to explain what they see and how to fix it. I've also wanted to help in other areas that I can't drive to on a normal basis and can't because I haven't been there recently. Removing editing restrictions on area…

Work closer with scripters
Develop a closer working relationship with scripters. They provide great tools that make the time we can devote to editing far more productive - UNTIL the scripts are broken when WME is updated. When possible incorporate script functionality into native code.

Revise points awarded for different edit types
Some types of edits are time/labor intensive (adding HNs for example) but earn few points. Others, such as adding RPPs or new streets earn more points and can be done quickly. As a result some edits that really need work but earn few points are neglected. Please take a look at making points earned more equitable based on time/effort needed.

Let's hide roads built in a small number of satellites
Do, please, so that if waze sees at least three satellites, it does not display those tracks in the map editor. It often happens that you forget to disconnect waze and go in the building. Satellite reception quality decreases. And in the editor there is a lot of chaotic tracks around the building. This prevents debris find tracks of roads that were built when waze seen enough satellites for precise positioning.

Limit locking of segments and Speed Cams, as some admins are very precious about their wrong edits and lock everything
Some admins are over possessive of their edits that are wrong in many cases, and just lock everything they do including speed cam locations or small segments. This in my opinion is totally against the crowdsourcing model of Waze where you get the best up to date data by millions of users who can't actually override those locked edits!

Waze Map Editor Multi Plateforme
Actuellement uniquement disponible sur PC via le site web cela pourrait être pratique de l'avoir soit directement inclus dans l'application soit proposer une app permettant d'y avoir accès via nos support portables. car lors de déplacement nous pouvons voirs des erreurs à certains endroits et n'avons pas forcément de PC avec nous et encore moins de possibilités de connexion via celui ci. alors qu'un accès à internet par téléphone et tablette et bien souvent plus aisés.

Turn on u-turns by default in WME
In those countries where u-turns are allowed please turn it on by default in the WME so I don't have to manually edit every time.

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
בהמון נקודות הפצה.6 votes -
