  2. Turn highlight

    Currently a turn is highlighted when you hover over it in the LG menu. But if you then click the turn to change it, the highlight disappears when selecting a different arrow icon. Please keep the highlight when the mouse moves over the dropdown.

  3. WME needs an option

    WME needs an option in reports that has like, "following" for a check box and only reports that I have responded to at any time will be shown.

  4. Make editor impact more obvious

    Drivers get a regular report of their reporting impact, such as how many reports and how many people were impacted and helped. It would be nice if WME did something similar. Perhaps in the editing history show some statistics to allow editors to see their impact for edits.

    Such as:

    Segments: Give a rough estimate of how many drivers navigated to a destination on this segment or traversed the segment (such as navigated to a PP with a stop point or to a HN).

    Places: How many users have searched for / navigated to this place.

    Under each edit in…

  5. Display clogged and cluttered with senseless labels of streetnames

    Quite often, in dense areas, the display of my cellphone is cluttered with adjacent streetnames shown as big labels. These labels/names hide the map details (i.e. approaching turns, exits etc.). So I am distracted by zooming in and out and panning the screen.
    I would REALLY like the opportunity, to switch OFF the streetname label.

  6. Ability to turn off notifications for individual cameras that you regularly encounter

    I drive past a specific speed camera every single day - I know it’s there! It would be good if you could stop notifications for individual cameras that you know about - a “Got it - don’t notify about this again” button would really help!

  7. aggiungere la possibilità di correggere il limite di velocità in vigore sulla tratta percorsa (ove errato o modificato da lavori)

    Vivo in svizzera. In questo paese la velocità consentita cambia molto frequentemente (specialmente in corrispondenza di lavori stradali) e questa cosa non va molto d'accordo con il fatto che qui sia consentito mettere autovelox senza alcun avviso. sarebbe fantastico se potessimo correggere i limiti di velocità in tempo reale per garantire la migliore informazione possibile a tutti.

  9. Temporary driving directions (roadworks/ rerouting)

    Temporary driving directions visible directly on the live map such as closures and that temporarily override the set driving direction in WME. This would be useful for one-way streets where there is a temporary reversal of driving direction due to roadwork or rerouting.

  10. Possibilità di vedere i distributori lungo la strada senza doverne fare una ricerca.

    Sarebbe utile vedere se lungo la strada che si sta percorrendo (con o senza destinazione assegnata) ci si avvicina ad un distributore senza doversi fermare per farne una ricerca apposita.
    Grazie.

  11. medidas de vehículos

    Estaría bien poder introducir las medias del vehículo dado que hay muchas personas con autocaravanas que se están metiendo por calles muy estrechas e incluso con balcones o puentes por los cuales no pueden pasar, así, de este modo el GPS calcula ruta y omite esas calles o zonas en las cuales no debería acceder vehículos de dichas dimensiones, altura, anchura, largo o incluso toneladas.

  13. Calgary back alleys

    Many houses in Calgary have garages located in the alleys; it would be nice to include back alleys in Waze. I had to revert to using Google Maps for this reason because Waze could only route to my front door instead of my garage, which is located at the back of the house.

  14. Redraw Place Area

    I feel like it would be a great addition if there was a button to reset a place's drawn area and redraw it. In RI, we draw schools by the shape of the building and with many schools being demolished and completely rebuilt into a different shape, its very tedious and annoying to have to go around and either delete all the points or to go just move each one, one at a time. Same thing goes for parking lots.

    It isn't a huge inconvenience, but it definitely would help a lot!

  17. Include "Electronic Fence" as an option on radars.

    In Brazil, several cities are implementing a security system called "Electronic Fencing", whose objective is to monitor city traffic, in addition to detecting stolen vehicles. However, the community has used "Speed Radar" signage to indicate where the electronic fence cameras are located, confusing many day-to-day users, who think it is a speed camera.

  18. Giving option to chose if place would be visible on map or not

    Please allow to chose whether place will be visible in application or not.

    Currently places larger then 500m2 are automatically visible, but many times it is easier to map with area than with point. Sometimes points are hardly visible due to color, zoom level etc...

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
