  1. Store state in URL

    I want to bookmark certain configurations of WME that contain certain layers or UR filter settings. This is not possible at the moment since the state of UR filters or layers aren't saved in the URL.

  2. wme - links

    i think it would be a nice touch to have the same menu in the editor profile like the live map & editor forum sites.

  3. wme - remove duplicate headings

    how come there is a waze map editor button in this drop down? and a duplicate of live map under it and also in the bottom right? i think the bottom right should be removed along with the waze map editor button?

  4. don't allow dirt roads

    I wish when I select "Don't allow" dirt roads it would navigate the route with the least possible dirt roads. It still routes me over dirt if it's a better route but don't allow to me means don't allow not avoid. I understand if the destination but it should still find the route with least dirt.

  5. Easier closure/construction reporting

    Add option under selection to report a closure on a segment as closed.

    After u-turns and some other turns the arrow doesn't show where the closure is to be able to report it. In order to drive the route to reach the closure is not always feasible as well.

    Right now under the map editor closing a road takes level 3 permissions, but would be helpful if as a level 1 editor that we could atleast select the segment and put notes in on where the closure is and the duration that is expected to then be applied by a…

  6. Adjust Categories to cover Sports Clubs

    Some of the categories don't quite cover what editors might be looking for. For example, Game Club should be a Sports Club, and a Club should be like a nightclub or function room type place. Currently, there is no category that covers a local sports club/function room. they're often a vital community asset and are used for plenty of social functions by non-club members which often leads to "non-locals" having to try locate them

  12. Ability to update or suggest speed limit change in areas where it is posted and different than the map shows

    There are places, within my area in Kansas, where the speed limit shown on the map does not match what is posted. Similar to being able to mark where police officers are, hazards in the road or even updating gas prices- there should be an option to click on the speedometer in the area and update it to match, OR submit this information in that spot when it’s found.

  13. Allow easier editing of new addresses with homes facing the "wrong way"

    Our development is a cul-de-sac with addresses that won't save in the map editor because the homes are all side-facing. This makes it difficult to share the address with guests if they aren't able to navigate there. Please allow all editors the ability to add their homes to the map.Thanks!

  14. Set up a schedule

    It would be good to be able to set a schedule, for example; weekdays leaving between 08:00 - 08:30 set destination as Work, leaving between 17:00 and 17:30 set destination as Home. I always set destination for regular routes as Wase tells me of accidents, traffic (and speed cameras 😇) It would be good it it had a timeout too, so if the schedule hadn't been used for say 60 minutes it automatically cancels.

  15. bike paths

    It would be cool if bike paths could be added and the category 'footpath' could be renamed to 'path', allowing one to select which type of path it is (footpath, bike path).

  18. Custom speeds by user

    This is just effected to the current user only.

    Just like the emergency buttons in the default map view, individuals can pick a new button named "Custom Speed." From here, they can set a speed value and distance. Additionally, setting a time range would be even better.

  19. More APIs for voice Assistants

    Users can use Google Assistant, Siri, etc., to add alerts (e.g., road closures, weather) and to turn on/off Waze settings, such as reading the next speed limit and turning off reading aloud road names... etc
