  3. Add a gradient border to Editing Areas based on age.

    For lower rank editors and those that tend to travel, it would be helpful to add a 1-3 pixel gradient border, likely at a 50% transparency level around each editing area based on the age of the area. I propose the gradient go from green to red for expiring edit areas and 50% grey for any LAM/AM areas for differentiation.

    I know that it would be beneficial for me to have that visual representation as I patrol the EA in WME that I gain each Northern Hemisphere summer that I drive around the USA.

  4. Have small arrows on the road

    The same way when you’re on the highway you have an arrow indicating a Lane, would be great if you had this option on all streets, (have multiple arrows, each resembling amount of lanes on private roads and highways in those directions) at the same time would need to make the app available to be zoomed in a little bit more, see those smaller details, and it could and will be a big help in certain scenarios. For example: if someone was never in a certain city, and pulling up to a street where it has a turning lane, lane…

  5. Dead End Signs

    Very important to have a dead end sign on the map before heading down that street, since many times waze will recommend certain roads even though it’s a dead end. Hope this was helpful and becomes a feature. Thank you.

    اقتراح طرق توفر وقت وكلفة الوقود، بحيث ينطيك أفضل طريق يجنبك الزحمة ويقلل من استهلاك الوقود.

    تحليل الطلب حسب المناطق: يبين لك مناطق معينة يكون الطلب على التكسي بيها عالي خلال فترات معينة، مثل مناطق الأسواق بالأوقات الصباحية أو مناطق الترفيه بالليل.

    حساب دخل يومي تقديري: على أساس المسافات وعدد المشاوير، حتى يعطيك صورة تقريبية عن دخلك خلال اليوم.

    ميزة الأمان للسواقين: مثل خاصية الطوارئ أو زر لإرسال موقعك لجهات اتصال موثوقة إذا تعرضت لأي حالة طارئة.

    أعتقد هذه الإضافات راح تكون مفيدة وتخلي التطبيق أكثر فائدة للسواقين اللي يعتمدون عليه بشكل يومي.

  7. Drive with your friend(s) or Family

    You can drive with your friends or family if you have a 2 or more vehicle convoy. This means if you loose a convoy member, you can find them on the map, and then set a route. All while your original route stays in a queue. You can also sent your friend(s) or family the route so they can set it up on their phone, car play or android auto.

  8. Add App reports feature to web interface

    It would be good to be able to add the reports function currently available in the app also to the web interface. This way, dispatchers, emergency services etc. could also add reports on disruptions through the web without having to physically be at the issue location.

  9. Add passes or permits at driving prohibited restrictions

    Currently, WME can only select passes or permits under the following rules in the restriction of roads
    -Driving is “allowed” for
    -Driving is “toll free” for

    We suggest that passes or permits can also be selected for the following rules
    -Driving is “prohibited” for

    This change would allow local rules in your country to be applied even in local countries that do not have their own passes or permits.

    For example, in Japan, there are some public roads that cannot be passed due to motorcycle engine displacement. By setting passes or permits for prohibited rules, local rules can be incorporated…

  10. In Greenville, WI, most of our address start with a letter in front of the number.

    In Greenville, WI, most of our addresses start with a letter in front of the number (e.g., W6000 Greenville Dr). Can you allow letters in the street number to ensure accuracy?

  11. Avoid ZTL (Italy), Limited Traffic Zone.

    There's only "Add ZTL pass" option, but it would be nice to be able to select "Avoid ZTL".

  12. Setting Issues Tracker filter as default should also select it

    If a user marks an Issue Tracker as default, obviously he/she means to use it. So, select the marked filter at once, no need to do it as a separate step.

  14. Multi-Select Option for Place Services

    Current Functionality:
    Services for a place are set with a yes/no checkbox. If a place has a service, editors check the box. Otherwise, the service's box is left unchecked.

    Proposed Functionality:
    Services for a place are set with choice chips for Yes, Unknown, and No. Unknown is selected by default. If a place has a service, editors select Yes. If a place doesn't have a service, editors select No. If editors are unsure or otherwise don't check, the default Unknown is left selected.

    Reasoning:
    The current system is somewhat ambiguous for editors. My own interpretation and expectation of the current…

  15. Conduciendo con ruteo, poder cerrar calles laterales, o transversales a la ruta

    Cuando conduces con ruteo, y cruzas una calle cerrada pero que no aparece como cerrada en la pantalla, solo puedes cerrar el segmento siguiente en tu ruta, para poder hacer ese cierre, debes "detener" tu ruteo, ahí empezar el proceso de cierre donde sí te aparece en la pantalla todas las posibilidades y hacer el cierre. Luego hay que volver a solicitar nuevamente ruta a nuestro destino. Si bien como está ahora facilita cerrar lo que tenemos delante de forma muy agil, acceder a esa posibilidad estaría interesante, ayudaría a mucha gente, no solo a los que usan Waze sin…

  16. On WME could there be a way to show UR that we already replied to as a notification in the notifications area on WME.

    So i would suggest receiving notification from existing UR from the WME notification tabs (top right) that we have already replied to once the reporter has acknowledged us editors' response to their report that would link us directly to that report, the current method so far is via email when waze actually notify us or in the app also the app notification only shows when the app is open.

    This would eliminate us having to go into our email every minute as to locate that specific UR as there are usually over 10, 20 UR in one spot that number…

  17. Emergency services

    An exciting enhancement for the Waze Map Editor could be the addition of markers for emergency service stations and permanent buildings, categorized into two types:

    Interactive markers (a single tap on any icon adds it to your route):

    - Hospitals: Represented by a red and white "H".

    - Police stations: Displayed as a house outline with a badge inside.

    - Fire stations: Depicted as a house outline with a fire axe or fire truck inside.

    Passive icons:

    - Schools: Highlighted with a zone area around them. When a route passes through, it triggers an alert similar to "Road hazard ahead".

  19. Learn and adapt to sequential traffic light switching

    In Germany, switching traffic lights in sequence is a common thing ("Grüne Welle" - green wave). At some intersections, it would be great if the sequencing pattern is recognized by an algorithm to guide wazers based on their position in the traffic light sequencing, i.e. that on a long straight, the signal to turn left is only active in the first 30sec after turning green.

  20. Complex intersection in WME / Intersección Compleja en WME

    I suggest that the "Permanent Hazard > Complex Intersection" option should be restricted to connection nodes only, preventing its placement on segments. This will ensure accurate and consistent usage of the feature.

    Sugiero que la opción "Peligro permanente > Intersección compleja" se limite únicamente a los nodos de conexión, evitando su ubicación en segmentos. Esto garantizará un uso preciso y consistente de la función.
