  1. Subway station elevation

    There should be a feature that would enable editors to include the elevation of a subway station as they can do with PLAs.

  2. 100 gas, fuel station price list update suggestions

    Hello dear Waze Team,

    I am contacting you because I’d like to suggest some features to be added. As I am a gasoline car user who always fills her car with 100 octane gas, I’d like to see prices of that as well in the price list at fuel stations. I’d also add a menu for updating prices by seeing the info page of the station.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    All the best,

    Hanna

  3. Please integrate postal codes with actual addresses in Singapore

    I have a hard time syncing my new postal code with my address. The address shows the proper position on the map. But the postal code brings me to a different position. When I highlighted this issue, the Waze map editors said that they are not able to make the change, and that postal codes were out of their domain.

    Postal codes are the main way that people search for addresses. If the postal code points to the wrong area, the app is not accurate. If Waze is serious about using crowd sourced information to improve, why is linking up…

  4. Make road hazard and police icons bigger while using apple carplay

    While using apple CarPlay in a 2020 Silverado, the road hazard and police icons are tiny little dots, while the restaurant and other less important icons are huge. Please make the icons for road hazards bigger.

  5. change/adapt default average speed assigned to a segment for itinerary calculation

    Hello,

    Using the script "road speed", I can see what are the average speed used for route calculation on every segment.

    I'm working on the map in Rwanda, Africa. Here, the major/minor highway may sometime be unpaved road. On these road, the driving speed never exceed 20-30 kph. However, by default, the speed on these "major highway" segment asigned by waze is 60-80 kph, which induce huge difference in the ETA.

    Of course, in cities or in the main roads where there is a lot of wazer traffic, this is automatically adapted thanks to the users. But in less populated…

  6. Enter an area place with Wicket polygon

    It is suggested to add a possibility to enter a polygon with Wicket format that will draw an area place according to that input (unsaved). It will be helpful for definition of an updated area for an AM.

  7. Differentiate between area map comments and point comments

    It would be great if it would be made possible to select to only see point map comments and/or area map comments.

    Area map comments are quite intrusive, leading to a lot of editors switching off the comment layer. As a result they sometimes miss useful information and make unnecessary edits.

    If you can choose to only see one type of comment, that would be very helpful.

  8. Routes in a Junction Box should have different gradients of colors

    When selecting a segment entering a Junction Box all possible routes are shown with a green color when the route is valid and red when it is invalid/forbidden. These routes can be mixed and sharing the same segment. To see which segments belong to specific routes the editor must hover the mouse pointer to the exiting arrow. The idea here is to be able to visualize without doubt each route (for instance, when sharing the JB screenshot)

  9. Integrate camper vans into parking spaces

    I would like to have the possibility to integrate mobile homes into parking spaces. But also to offer the possibility when parking spaces are only allowed for motorhomes.

  10. Customize "Services" checkboxes by Category

    Most Places have a set of checkboxes under Additional Information that are relevant for restaurants, but are just silly for almost any other Category. It should be possible to provide relevant services that are different based on the Category of the Place. This will enhance the information saved for most non-restaurant Places and make WME (and Waze) more relevant.

  11. Traffic data layers in WME for advanced editors

    It would be useful for editors investigating routing issues and making mapping decisions to have a configurable traffic data layer in WME that could show a variety of information collected from drivers. This would include statistics such as the average number of Wazers driving on the segment per day, speed percentiles for drivers on the segment, the "freeflow" speed that Waze is using in routing, and the amount of times that the routing server has used the segment. It would also be useful for editors to be able to see locations where the app consistently has trouble snapping drivers to…

  13. Parking along with the Parking area code and Charging info would be helpful

    Showing the nearest Parking close to destination is Cool, would be good to also see the Parking area code and if that has Charging points (wherever applicable) -
    I am in Stockholm, I usually have to struggle understanding the parking code, for which I can check the charges before I travel.
    With Electric cars becoming more popular, it would be great to have the Parking code combined with a Mark highlighting if cars can be charged.
    Example Stockholm P - which allows free charging or Mer or Incharge which are paid. This info will be really helpful.
    That way can…

  14. Oval roundabouts

    Hi,

    Is it possible to draw a roundabout not only in the horizontal or vertical oval direction, but in all directions?

    If you have a roundabout that runs from northeast to southwest oval, you can currently only mark it like this by hand.

  16. 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…

  18. Hallo. Wäre ein Option für Grenzübergang zu sperren nicht schlecht.

    Hallo. Wäre ein Option für Grenzübergang zu sperren nicht schlecht.
    Mit Einsatzfahrzeug darf ich nicht über die Grenze fahren, aber manchmal führt die Navi mich dort durch. Und manchmal verbietet auch keine andere Option.
    Wie ich mich errinere, in iGo Navigation war diese Option verfügbar.
    Ich glaube könnten wir hier auch nutzen.
