Post-Trip Summary & Route Comparison
I would like to request a "Trip Summary" card that appears automatically upon reaching a destination. Currently, the navigation simply ends, and valuable driving data is lost.
Proposed Metrics to Display:
- Performance: Distance, Total Time, Avg/Max Speed.Efficiency: Estimated fuel/battery cost for the trip.
Traffic Insight: Moving time vs. Stopped time (idling/traffic).
Smart Comparison Feature: For frequent routes (specifically "Home" to "Work" and vice versa), the summary should include a comparison against the user's historical average.
Example: "You arrived 3 minutes faster than your average commute."
Benefit: This would help users analyze their driving habits, optimize their commute times,…

Let us filter shown closures on the map after date
Recently due to the carnival festivals in south germany, where you have to close multiple segments in big areas on multiple different days and times, I have noticed that it sometimes gets confusing on which segments you have already closed for which day.
For example when I put a closure for the 15th Feb. then the segment appears with the gray icon showing that there is a upcoming closure. If the whole inner-city gets closed then ALL segments will have that gray icon showing an upcoming closure but in this scenario I also need to close ALL these segments for…

Keep Google Map Links Import
Matching Feed imports to Waze places should keep Google Maps links placed by editors. Currently, when matching feed runs, the Waze place is stripped of linked Google places. Alternatively, if the businesses are the clients of matching feed, Waze could make matching feed a bundled service covering Waze and Google Maps.

Add In Car notification for Map Issues Request
With prevalence of In Car integration for Waze the large number of Map Issue being reported is done via Android Auto or Car Play.
When editors or as of now automated ping requests additional information there is no notification to the User through the In Car integration that this has occurred the user will need to check email through which they can't reply or the app, which most in car users don't open.
Can we have the notification for the user in car and what would be even more helpful is to give user ability to reply via voice to…

Road Closure Metrics
It would be nice to be able to see how many people were successfully rerouted around a closure. We specifically use road closures for emergencies like crashes on major roadways, and it would be beneficial to be able to see how effective that is.

WME EVENT Page Upgrade Suggestion
Hello. I would like to suggest an improvement to Events: it should be possible, directly within the Event Page, to manage the associated road closure(s) by enabling or disabling them. Additionally, it would be useful to define new schedules for each closure—specifically, if a closure is extended, the Event duration itself should automatically update to match, even if it’s just one or a small part of the multiple associated closures. Thank you.

Use AI to see the live traffic levels in each turn lane/lanes going to different major roads
Use AI to see the live traffic levels in each lane based on user data and traffic movement. This could be a turn lane to turn left/right, or say if lanes 1&2 go to the M25 and 3&4 carry onto the A3. As the people who go to the M25 is queueing, AI could determine the estimated travel times by people who have already sat in the traffic queue by which direction they end up going.
This will give more accurate arrival times and better routes for the user.

when reporting errors on the map, there is no option to correct speed limits that are incorrectly shown by waze
If you notice a wrong speed limit indicated by Waze, there is no easy option on the app to report or even correct the speed limit even if you are seeing it as a perm change and not a temporary decrease speed limit

Rerouting optional
In the beginning of a ride, the app will let you chose between several routes. However, even if you purposely selected a certain route, it will automatically reroute you, if it found a "faster" route. Sometimes though, you do not want that because you chose a certain route on purpose. Unfortunately, other than in Google Maps (where you get a notification that a faster route was found that you can dismiss) there is no option in Waze to reject such rerouting. This can sometimes even lead to dangerous situations, like if you get rerouted through an unsafe neighborhood.

Request: Add adjustable handle size as a standard WME feature
Hi Waze team,
The handles for roads and Places in WME are currently very small, which makes them difficult to grab accurately.
Beginners often struggle with precise editing, and even detail‑oriented editors would benefit from being able to adjust the handle size to match their workflow.I would like to request that WME include the following as a standard feature:
Larger default handle sizes, or
A setting that allows users to adjust handle size
Adding this feature would improve usability for all editors and reduce frustration, especially for new contributors.
Thank you for considering this enhancement.6 votes -
Add Permanent Hazard for Causeways (Fords / Dangerous Dips)
I would like to request the addition of a permanent hazard type in the Waze Map Editor for Causeways (Fords / Dangerous Dips).
In many developing countries, mountainous regions, and jungle areas (such as in Nepal), national highways and rural roads frequently cross seasonal rivers or streams via causeways rather than bridges. These sections of the road are prone to sudden water accumulation, standard flooding, and severe dips that can damage vehicles or pose a significant safety risk to drivers who are unfamiliar with the terrain.
Currently, local traffic authorities recognize these as permanent, high-risk road features. For example, Nepal…

Improve adding and managing RPP by showing numbers and entry points
When adding house numbers in rural areas, we often end up using a mix of HN and RPP. It would help quite a bit, if the entered house number and the routing end point were visible without selecting a RPP, the same way it shows for HN. Currently the only way to check is to select the RPP, but it would be nice to have an overview available at all times.

URs: Simple reply form to provide more detail
As most editors will attest to, the rate of receiving follow-up details from users who submit URs is still very low. When we follow up and ask for further details, I'm sure many users click on the 'View Report' button in the e-mail intending to reply, but are then put off by the fact that they have to go through a clumsy process of logging in to a WME interface they probably haven't used before (which is not optimised for mobile phones, and if they haven't previously logged in to WME they have to go through two layers of security…
