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…

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..

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?

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.

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.

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!Español:

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:
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.
Greater Route Clarity:
- Elevation Changes: 3D maps can…

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.

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.4 votes -

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!4 votes
