    Since this feature is already available, I'm not certain if this is the right place for my recommendation, but I'm going to give it a try:
    Currently to drop a pin and save it in favorites I needed to:
    1 - google search HOW to do it, because I was unable to find an intuitive way to, but I was still certain a 2023 app couldn't possibly lack such a basic feature.
    2 - drop the pin at desired location
    3 - press the ... (three dots) at upper right corner of pop-up modal
    4 - press "Preview location" from the menu that shows up (with only 2 opts...)
    5 - press the very small font "Save place" inscription with a small star on the left, located in the upper left corner of the next menu.

    Now, at this point, as a person looking for a solution for his problem I was simply happy to have found it and be able to share it with the person actually using Waze.

    But after that I got to thinking - why the **** is this not just:
    1 - drop pin
    2 - Save location/place

    There are plenty of ways to redo the first modal, that could make the next 2 menus totally unnecessary and from a UX perspective, putting features so commonly used 3-4 levels deep is just bad form.
