Allow language change for international travelers
Hi! In our office we are big fans of WAZE and find, at least in Los Angeles, that it's superior to Google Maps and other GPS apps. Our issue? We have many frequent international travelers and in particular, when in Israel the app defaults to Hebrew and can't be changed to English. I think it would be advantageous to all if that could be made more flexible.

Remove layer sharing in permalinks
Currently, when making a permalink, you can share your layer settings by checking the "Include layer settings" checkbox. This will add the "s" parameter to the permalink so that anyone who opens it will see the map with your layer settings.
In my experience this feature is literally never used and is frankly quite annoying. If someone sends you a PL this way, you will lose all your own layer settings and have to re-check all the layers that you had enabled.
In my opinion, removing this feature would be the most effective solution as it is never used.1 voteWe've updated the tool to keep the include layers checkbox consistent so these overrides should no longer happen.
