Set user level using points
I've been an active user on waze for over 10 years reporting items like police cams and intermittent construction. In order to make any edits to the map requires level 3 which currently requires 5000 edits. Add an additional way to achieve higher levels based on user points. For example I have 239,582 points and it doesn't seem they are really useful for anything.

LPG (GLP) stations
I would like to suggest adding LPG (GLP) stations as a specific fuel category in the app. In the Dominican Republic, a large percentage of vehicles run on LPG, and it is currently difficult for users to locate these specific stations quickly. Adding a dedicated filter or icon for LPG would greatly improve the navigation experience for thousands of drivers in the region.

Animal Crossing and Equestrian Road Usage Attributes
Requesting a feature in Waze Map Editor that allows editors to assign permanent animal-related road attributes to road segments.
Many roads are marked with official signs indicating wildlife crossings, or regular use by horse riders. These represent ongoing, predictable conditions rather than temporary hazards, but there is currently no structured way to reflect them in the map.
This feature should allow editors to tag roads with:
Animal crossing (e.g., wildlife such as deer or moose)
Equestrian road usage (roads frequently used by riders)
Making these attributes visible to drivers would improve awareness and safety, especially on rural or mixed-use roads…

Animals
Add a dedicated “Animal Hazard” report category in Waze for:
• Animals on the road
• Animals near the roadside (ditches, shoulders)
• Injured or dead animalsIncreases driver safety, reduces wildlife collisions, and improves awareness of animal hazards.

Have a checkbox for "Cash Only" instead of or as well as "Accepts Credit Cards" in the Services menu
As most businesses accept credit cards, I feel like a more applicable option to select would be for "Cash Only" as that is very important information to know about a place before heading there.

Add Keyboard Shortcuts to Google Places / Agregar atajos de teclado a Google Places
I would like to suggest adding keyboard shortcuts to Google Places.
Keyboard shortcuts could help users work more efficiently by reducing the need for repetitive mouse actions, especially when reviewing or editing multiple places. This improvement would save time, improve usability, and make the overall experience faster and more comfortable for advanced users.La sugerencia que deseo hacer es agregar atajos de teclado a Google Places.
Los atajos de teclado permitirían a los usuarios trabajar de manera más rápida y eficiente, reduciendo el uso repetitivo del mouse, especialmente al revisar o editar varios lugares. Esta mejora ayudaría a ahorrar tiempo,…3 votes -
Eliminate "HN already used" error.
When adding HNs, if a particular number and street name combination exist anywhere else in the state, you get an error message that the HN 'can't be added because it already exists on the street.' It's not unusual for a street name to be used many times in other cities in the state.
There are work-arounds to force the HN to be accepted but it would be much simpler if the city name could be considered in determining if that the HN already exists. A street name is normally used only one time in a city so when there are…

Add “Speed bump” as a map error report option
Add “Speed bump” as a map error report option
It would be useful to allow users to report speed bumps as a map error instead of only as a general hazard.
Currently, speed bumps are often missing or inconsistently mapped, and reporting them through broad categories reduces accuracy and slows down data correction.
Proposed feature:
- Add “Speed bump missing” or “Incorrect speed bump” under Map error reports
- Allow users to pin the exact location on the map
- Optional details (type, size, visibility)
Benefits:
- more precise map data
- faster correction of missing road features
- improved routing accuracy and driver awareness

In "Valera, Venezuela" the satelite image of Google is a real mess. I really loved the former images from the waze map. Do something google because your satelite image is not helping me to edit the roads in my city

Better WME ranking system
It is very hard for newcomers in WME to be able to contribute as much as they wanted due to the ranking system that doesn't allow to do much at first. It is very hard to get to at least level 3 which allows to alter some segments in the driving area and it is almost impossible without hunting for missing POIs or stuff like that. There aren't always many editors with higher ranks and sometimes they can get overwhelmed by the editing tasks and opened map problems.
There should be a better system in place that would allow newcomers…3 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Address localization
lease allow localization of address field just as it is done in search results, so it would be possible to have "%{street} %{housenumber}" instead of "%{housenumber} %{street}" for some languages.

Drive to Feature on Cartouche
While editing the map I would like a separate layer so that I can make notes and pin it to areas of the map that I would like to visit. These online notes should only be viewable by the user who made the notes. It would also be necessesary to navigate to these Points of Interest and have the notes pop up so that pictures can be taken of the surrounding so that the Waze map can reflect real world situations out there on the road.
The Waze notes layer (home computer) and the Android phone should be synced so…

Color-coded according to speed in editor
A feature that had been good when you are editing speed limits would be to go into a "Edit mode for the speed limit" just as the house number.
That all roads would be color-coded according to speed. and roads with no speed would be gray, so you can easily see which roads have the limitation and which have not.Another thing that would be great is that you can put limits whereever on the road and not just at a crossing. Again, just as the house number.
