1. Add a button to refresh page where you are

   Hi

   With latest Beta, we're missing the old permalink button (on button right) that allowed us to refresh the entire page staying at our location.

   If you F5 you refresh the page but move to the url location.

   Only actual possiblity is to copy paste the actual permalink.

   Thanks

   Great thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

3. Sub-cities

   The goal is to have a mechanism for attaching localities or hamlets to a city.
   The French wiki presents a number of situations (https://wazeopedia.waze.com/wiki/France/Routes_Nommage).
   There is also the management of districts or neighborhoods of large cities that could also benefit from this feature.

4. Issue Tracker Option ~ Add ability to have Map Area and Managed Area at same time

   We need the ability to have the "Map area" option selected along with either the "Managed area" or "Specific location" option selected.

   Why you may ask?

   This just happened to me.

   I keep my settings as "Managed area" or "Specific location" so that I can work URs, PURs, etc anywhere any my managed area or State without being at a specific map area

   Someone contacts me by chat for assistance in a location that is not in my managed area or specific location (whichever I have set) and I help them out. Reporter is a happy camper.

   Since I don't have "Map area" selected, I don't see that the reporter had already submitted 2 URs. Another editor that finds those URs and sends me a message to find out if I am going to close the URs since I resolved them.

   In order for me to see the URs, I had to go into my settings and switch to Map area, then I could resolve them.

   I should be able to have my setting show me URs, PURs, etc in my Map area at all times (should be top of the list) and my normal URs, PURs, etc based on my Managed area setting below them.

   Let me know if you have questions.

5. Save all native WME client settings on server side

   Base WME client settings are only saved to the local machine, as every time you log in somewhere on a new workstation, you have to go restore your preferences such as Environment, Language, Imperial/Metric, Compact Mode, Transparent Arrows, etc.

   However, with the implementation of Issue Tracker, saved filter settings are immediately accessible upon a new login, proving that WME user settings can be saved at the server end.

   Please save all native WME settings on the server side so that they are already in place when an existing editor logs in on a new workstation for the first time.

6. Incorporate Place Interface Enhancements Script RPP Editing Options

   The Place Interface Enhancements ("PIE") Script provided an easy way to add RPP's by offering to auto-populate the 'street name' field with values from the nearest street. Optionally, one could have it ignore the checking for the street name from nearby PLRs and PRs:

   (Options):
   - Use street name from closest segment
   - Use city name from closest segment
   - When the primary is "No city" look for an alt city
   - Ignore PLRs & unnamed PR when using closest segment's name and city

   The script stopped working after an update to WME earlier this year. It would be an immense help to incorporate these features in WME, making the process go quicker.

7. To automatically remove duplicates from "external providers"

   If you have have duplicates in the "external providers" of a POI, WME should automatically clean it. See example for this one which has twice the same Google Maps place :

8. [Segment Attribute Request] Treat 2 Way as Divided

   I would like to have the ability to draw a single 2-way segment but be able to mark it as divided so it does not say you have arrived until on correct side of road. Sometimes you may have a segment that may not really need to be divided into 2 One-Way segments but if you want routing to offer the correct directions you would have to divide the segments. In my picture below, the red line shows what Waze currently does (it says you have arrived as you pass the house) The green line shows what it should be doing. This can be accomplished by dividing but if there was an attribute that says "divided segment" that Waze would treat the 2-way segment as 2 One-Way segments, then we would not have to add extra "unneeded" segments but still give the correct routing.

   I really think this would go a long way in helping when we have just a short segment that is divided along a longer undivided segment.

9. Narrow Road Permanent Hazard

   This permanent hazard would warn users of an upcoming section of narrower road width that has traffic and/or safety considerations. Potential applications include:

   • Areas where a two-way road transitions to a single-lane width where opposing traffic must alternate/give way through the narrow section
     • Ex. 1: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=41.26449&lon=-75.78368&marker=true&zoomLevel=18&segments=502096154
     • Ex. 2: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=42.10978&lon=-71.24117&marker=true&zoomLevel=18&segments=74434220,22554146
     • Ex. 3: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=44.33295&lon=-73.28244&marker=true&zoomLevel=19&venues=187892155.1879052625.3735122

   • Two-way roads of limited width where common parallel/street parking cause drivers to have to move in or out of the parking lanes to allow traffic from no parking direction to pass
     • Ex. 1: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=40.02695&lon=-75.22336&marker=true&zoomLevel=18&segments=41758956,41751608,41747111,41755005
     • Ex. 2: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=41.88316&lon=-71.35791&marker=true&zoomLevel=17&segments=43507359,43531672

   These are strictly permanent hazard warnings with no traffic data implications, nor are they meant to replace the passageway road type. This would not be used where a road narrows only because shoulders or parking areas have ended or where roads narrow due to traffic calming devices, so long as the road itself still maintains full width lanes in both directions.

10. Change Forum Sharing Option autofill

    When an editor uses the forum sharing options, new editors are consistently adding the wrong lock level to their request.

    For example, the current Unlock Request automatically fills in the following information:
    Hi Editors,

    I would like to be able to edit the following segment(s).
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    Permalink: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=29.63406&lon=-104.27920&zoom=5&segments=516527406
    Reason:
    Unlock to level:

    Thank you in advance,
    The "reason" and "unlock to level" kind of blend in.

    My suggestions would be to automatically fill in the current lock level of the selected objects and the rank of the editor making the request for the "unlock to level" information

    As a sample:
    Hi Editors,

    I would like to be able to edit the following segment(s).
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    Reason:

    Permalink: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=29.63406&lon=-104.27920&zoom=5&segments=516527406

    "Unlock from level 5 to level: 1" (autofilled based off object level and editor rank)

    Thank you in advance,

    NOTE: If the editor happens to select multiple objects with multiple lock levels, you can use the highest lock for the request.
    i.e. 3 segments are L3 and 1 segment is L4 and editor is L2
    "Unlock from level 4 to level: 2"

    Thanks for your consideration

11. Prompt user to save Lane changes if deselecting segment

    After editing Lanes, it's far too easy to lose the changes by accidentally deselecting the selected segment you are editing if you don't apply the changes beforehand.

    This suggestion is to recognise that changes have been made in Lanes (or road width), and prompt the user to apply or cancel the changes if they deselect the segment they are editing.

13. Expand external visual cue on mouseover

    Several years ago the WME interface was changed and it reduced how much information was visible when adding an external provider. You could no longer see the difference between two entries because the text simply isn't visible and longer place names make it worse. Editors would have to select a provider to see the address and determine if it was correct. If it was not, they would have to search again and select another entry. Repeat the process until you find the correct entry. If there is no entry, you have tried five different times to find out. For some places, there can even be multiple entries for a given store (Walmart Supercenter, Walmart Pharmacy, Walmart Auto, etc).

    To deal with that, a script was written that allowed editors to mouse over the entry and and see directly on the map where the Google pin is located. This gave a very simple visual cue as to which entry was correct. We could simply hover over the entries until one has the pin in the correct location, ensuring accuracy and saving a lot of time.

    Developers were recently asked to remove this functionality, due to its use of the Google API within WME.

    Please add a native mouseover indicator of the Google pin location for the external entry.

    https://www.waze.com/discuss/t/urgent-two-scripts-were-compromised-on-feb-1-please-read-if-you-use-scripts/365499
    I strongly urge Waze relook at the Top "X" scripts that were identified several years ago and incorporate them into native WME.

    These scripts serve several functions
    1) Increase navigation precision: JAI (mentioned above) is absolutely needed for experienced editors to determine the angles and thus, the turn announcements when one moves from one segment to the next
    2) Speed up editor time: ColorSpeed (also mentioned above) and others, like LaneTools or Road Shield Assistant, provide a quick visual on the overall WME to see what information is added to which segments. This is a huge time saver compared to selecting each segment individually.
    3) Fix for native bugs: The "Reduce Kinetic Zooming" feature in FUME, actually allows me to use my mouse on a Mac. Without it, a small touch of my mouse could send WME zooming many miles away.

    I recommend Waze do a quick recheck of the top X scripts with the GCs and devise a plan to incorporate those features into native WME.

    I understand there will be scripts that WME will never plan to incorporate. However, there more functionality WME incorporates, the less scripts we have to rely on.

    Thanks.

    Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

15. Automatic UR handling

    An update request (UR) without any text can be automatically handled:
    1. There will be an automatic system response to the UR that will invite the user to add more details to his request in the WME (include a link) or in the forum (include a link to the local community forum). The user will get an e-mail as fr any other manual response.

    1. Every such UR that has no more responses (other than the automatic one) will be closed as "not identified" after 7 days.

    That automatic handling will save a lot of time wasted by area managers. A large percentage of the URs are with no text, and out of these very few get a response from the user when inviting them to give more details.

    This idea is similar to the idea here:

16. Sunrise/sunset vs absolute times for restrictions

    Some roads have driving restrictions based on the local sunrise/sunset times, which are difficult to map even somewhat accurately as a series of consecutive restrictions with absolute start/end times.

    Being able to set a single year-round restriction using a "sunrise" or "sunset" option to set the start/end times, and leaving it up to the routing server to determine what the actual start/end times are for each restriction based on the current date and coordinates of the restricted segments, could therefore be useful.

    Hey,

    We have looked at this suggestion, and in order to make some decisions about it, would like to kindly ask you to provide us with more data about it.

    Please share some examples for when and where this restrictions apply? (use cases)

    And any country you know relevant for it.

    Thanks!

17. Draw City Boundaries More Accurately

    Currently City Boundary layers are not drawn precisely, which can result in the wrong city name being displayed to users in the app. I continue to get URs on this regularly in my area.
    This issue seems to be seen commonly when cities are divided by an undulating river. Users should not be shown that they are in a city that they are not in. The system to "draw" the city layer should rely on more data points to draw a more accurate city layer. I will attach screenshots to show this more clearly.

    Incorrect city "Maple Ridge" is displayed on the north section of "Langley" (Blue Circle)
    The reverse is also true Incorrect city "Langley" is displayed on a portion of Maple Ridge (Red Circle)

    The areas have been meticulously scanned there is no place or street with the wrong city name.

18. Move Previous Build Button

    The small bar with tile build information moves and sometimes covers elements as different parts of WME are accessed. With the exception of my phone in landscape orientation, there seems to be an excessive amount of extra space on the tile bar. My suggestion is to move it to the tile bar on the left, near the settings button.

19. Expand character limit for the name of an MTE

    Currently the character limit for the name of an MTE is 25. Common MTE names often come very close or exceed 25 characters, such as "Electric Ave Bridge Replacement" (31 characters). It would be helpful to have the character count increased, possibly by another 10-20 or more.

    Great timing! We’re currently working on expanding the character limit for the name of an MTE. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

20. Show Entry Point Name changes in POI history and PUR

    I noticed that Changes to the name of Entry Points of places won't show up in the POI history, it simply says "Updated Entry Points".

    This also affects PURs, since you don't know what the Wazer/Editor is suggesting until you accept it.
    I reckon those requests mostly get declined since there's no visible change.

    My suggestion is to add those name changes to the history and PURs.
