  2. Impossible for Level 1 to advance

    As a level 1 editor, you need to gain experience to learn how to properly apply edits to the map for the betterment of the community. But as a Level 1 editor, you essentially can't edit anything. I understand not allowing a novice editor to make changes and potentially break the map. I understand there could be malicious actors who could sabotage this platform. But as it stands now, this voluntary map editing feature will die.

    The amount of edits needed to move up levels is high. I'm fine with that IF edits are allowed. Sooner or later, the senior…

  3. Keep usernames in WME history instead of "inactive user"

    Whenever an user is banned or deletes his/her account or just mysteriously (!!) loses his/her account, all edits in history will be shown under name "inactive user" with a link to 404 page.

    Just, for the sake of history, please keep the original username in history and add a little remark that the account is inactive/deleted/etc..

  4. Replace Delete button for Save in the MTE form

    When I want to put in a MTE lots of time I press on the delete knop after finishing instead of the save button.

  5. Advance warning for speed limit changes

    I drive a tracked vehicle, I need to be at the new speed limit before passing the signs. ie, 60mph dropping to 40mph, if the signs are hidden round the corner, I need to brake harder to slow down in time.

    Would it be possible to have either a visible marker on the moving map to display the different speed limit up ahead, or a warning pop up maybe 200yds in advance?

  6. Allowing business pages to edit their locations

    We recently opened a new community health center and a lot of our clients utilize Waze to navigate the city. It would be extremely helpful for business owners and clients to be able to locate the correct address. It is almost physically impossible to edit the map and there are no instructions or guides for assistance. This error needs to be addressed immediately.

  8. Natural sequence for house numbers

    Is necessary to enable the insertion of house numbers that are a sequence of natural numbers (Ex.: 101, 102, 103, 104, ....), which is very common in several condominiums in Brazil.

  9. 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.

  10. Average Speed Camera Location

    Give the ability to pinpoint the location of the camera's that are being used for ASC's.

    It adds another layer of information (besides the speed check zone announcement) to the map and avoids users reporting these ANPR-camera's as regular speed camera's.

  11. Implementation of an App to be able to edit | Implementación de un App para poder editar

    Hi 👋🏼 I have a suggestion that will change completely to improve the Efficiency of all editors and it is nothing more and nothing less than to implement an app for editors that allows us to edit like google maps only that the advantage of Waze is that it is more secure and reliable by the hierarchies. having the WME tool in our palm gives us the power to edit at any time and anywhere giving more constant tracking and updates without having to wait to get home or somewhere safe.
    Cheers!

  13. 3D Maps

    Implementation of 3D Maps

    Proposal Overview:
    I propose the integration of 3D maps into the Waze navigation app, enhancing the user experience and providing vital contextual information that improves navigation for drivers.

    Key Benefits of 3D Maps for Drivers:

    1. Enhanced Spatial Awareness:

      • Improved Orientation: 3D maps provide a more realistic view of the environment, helping drivers better understand their surroundings, especially in complex urban areas or mountainous regions.
      • Landmark Recognition: Drivers can more easily identify landmarks and key points of interest (POIs), which can aid in navigation and make routes more intuitive.
    2. Greater Route Clarity:

      • Elevation Changes: 3D maps can…

  15. Bring back pave roads

    Bring back the "Pave Road" function in the phone app.

    If this makes a lot of duplicate roads, even them out, or make it easy to remove the wrong ones/ keep the good one..

    Also bring back the "Pacman-style road verification" that was here 10 years ago.

  18. Message from a user reporting the end of a closure, does not indicate the location

    As a map editor, we can sometimes insert numerous closures in one day, due to construction or traffic events.
    When a user reports that a closure is no longer active, I, as the editor who created it, receive a message in my application. However, this message only indicates the information that the user reported. Example: “This road is not closed”
    This does not provide additional information, such as the name of the road or even the location’s PL. If I create a lot of closures, I can’t identify which location it is.

    Many animals around the world are abandoned, wandering through urban centers and facing the constant danger of being hit by vehicles. Thousands lose their lives to traffic accidents each year. Let us unite to save these precious lives

  20. Add km and miles distance to the navigation screen

    Please, update the app to show the distance with both km and miles at the same time.
    On the bottom of the navigation screen (after setting the destination) there is plenty of space, I grew up on a country that uses km, now I live in the US that uses miles, but it will take a long time to get used to it, therefore showing both simultaneously (e.g 10 mi / 16 km) would be perfect!
