Editors’ July Newsletter: Suggest edits on turns
What’s new in Waze
Introducing turn suggestions!
The Suggest an Edit feature in the WME just got better! Now you can propose changes to turns, even if you don’t have editing permissions yet. This is a fantastic way for newer editors to contribute directly to the map’s accuracy and learn from experienced editors. It’s a win-win for everyone! Learn more
Share what’s on the road
You already know that Waze lets you report incidents. Now, we’re taking it to the next level. Once in a while, we’ll ask for more info about what’s ahead on your route. Just tap the right option to easily enrich the map. Your fellow drivers will appreciate it!
Use Waze from Google Maps
Found a place on Google Maps and want to get there with Waze? Simply tap the Share button and select Waze as your navigation app. Currently available on Android only, iOS coming soon.
