Thank you! You help me to correct the name of a via. Sometimes people put names on vias to remember they have been there. We, who live in the place, can contribute to have the correct names specially on rural areas where sometimes names are not visible or names have been changed. In my country, names of streets or vias are constantly changed by the transport authority.
Yvonne, if Trader Joe's is in the wrong place on the Waze map, you can change that yourself. That is the beauty of Waze, in that all users are editors. Log into your Waze account on your PC/Mac/whatever, then click on 'live map', then 'update map'. Position the map where you want it to be in Ann Arbor, make sure 'Landmarks' are turned on in the pull down menu from the right.
This video is quite outdated. Can we get an update....
***** Are you pointing out the obvious? or volunteering to help? :D I agree it needs to be updated, this is the same video when I started, & I rather not state how long ago that was. (Although I think you already know)
Confedyank This video predates me editing by a whole 2 years, yet it was the video that i watched before editing. Then i learned to forget everything I watched here.
7 years later, this is still the one they send you to 😂
9 years later same 😂
Poderiam atualizar esse vídeo e contratar tradutores (locutores) para os principais países, separar estes vídeos por idioma, assim as pessoas vão se interessar mais em ajudar a comunidade. Acho que é um investimento bom a ser feito e não custará muito.
Colocar legenda já ajuda. Ela é automática agora
Usa legendas do TH-cam, coloca em portugues. ;)
@@drydantas2009 @cah.constancio Eu me refiro ao vídeo que está dentro do aplicativo do WAZE. Aqui no TH-cam, eles colocaram apenas uma cópia do vídeo. Dentro do aplicativo do WAZE deveria ter a regionalização deste vídeo. Lá eles não utilizam o youtube, é um player próprio. CONFIGURAÇÕES > Editor de Mapas do Waze
I have an iPhone 4 I use waze all day long while driving around to all my stops, I keep it plugged in when in use, never gets hot. Best App I have on my phone.

Great video, guys. Even better than my videos. One comment though, it's easier to check turn restrictions on the junctions you connected/built by clicking on the junctions itself and select the right one in the property window. Also, you could have shown in the video to always check turn restrictions from all roads connected (you mainly showed from one road only). That way people will connect a segment but not make all turn restrictions ok.

So Subs5 , I am not a waze map editor . I found an error I reported it then I get some crap that I did not respond? I did and I said it was on the other side of the road. I'm sorry you found my response" Nebulous"
I will not report any more errors. Thanks!
Never heard of "open street map" and Waze is a free app giving turn by turn directions and it's member supported using navigation data and users updating map data when it's can't be resolved through automated processes. I looked in the app store and the only open street map app that I saw after a quick search had a fee attached.
i'm using Waze for some time now and i must say it gets better every time. Only thing i would like to know is how long it takes before my adjustments are being synched.. i made a lot of Map Edits, but still not seeing them in my Waze App.
This video is 5 years old. Many of the features described do not exist today.
Thank you, I just started using Waze this past Saturday and just now watching, thinking that it was updated but now I know, thanks to you. :')
Been a Waze user for about 6 months so far. Love it, but the only issue I have is that my phone gets quite HOT when I'm using it. This happened with my old phone (Samsung Replenish) and my new one (HTC Evo 4g LTE).
I love this app, thanks! I would like to know if you give us an option to select if a cop in traveling or parked on the freeway .

HOV lane on San Diego's I-15 was not recognized as a route. Voice directions constantly instructed to exit on to main I-15.
Go to Waze.com and select "Live Map" At the top left there will be a link to "Update Map". After you click the update map button you will be asked to log in. It my experience is the normal it took a day after I logged in before it showed my drives and allowed me to do more editing. The first day it's was very limited.
Great tutorial! How many maps does Waze actually provide updated information for?
Gostaria de assistir a esse tutorial em português.
Tenho varias observaçoes e alterações a sugerir.
The view of Glenfarg Cresent,Cowdenbeath, is about 15 years old, there al houses build and people living there since 2005.
Maybe the most honest answer is "only buying another smartphone". But here are some tips to avoid overheating: adjust the brightness for just the necessary, avoiding maximum brightness. Avoid to use the smartphone in the windshield during the day and protect it from direct sunlight (I use the console near the gear for this purpose). If your battery is charged enough, avoid use the car charger.
to save a point of interest/landmark after drawing the polygon, double click and it will turn orange .... you can then categorise it
Can Waze make an updated map editor's video? The features described are no longer found where this video details.
HELP! I tried to make a round-about and it didn't work out properly. Now I can't fix it.. I don't know what to do as I saved it by accident. How can I just make it go back to how it was??
Hi Waze Team. When editing maps I have been looking for a pre-manufactured "cul-de-sac" or "turnaround" which is often the end of a "dead end street", especially in suburban areas. I find problems to properly describe otherwise that a street ends this way. Any chance for such a fixed editing gadget? / theBerra
(continued) Find the Trader Joe's displayed, then click on it once on the map, hit the delete key on your keyboard, then save from the update map menu. You can also build the TJ's at the correct location, by creating a new landmark, then saving. It would appear live in the next map update pushed to the handsets.
Não consigo ajudar........ só tem Inglês.
Coloquem com tradução, com certeza muitas pessoas irão contribuir.
Abçs
O editor de mapas é todo em Português, me manda uma mensagem que lhe explico, é bem simples.
Good information for helping update the maps. Thanks for the easy to follow directions. :) Looking forward to helping making waze better.
That works too - I found that if I double -click the last point I also exit. Perhaps I missed it but neither of these were in the video I think.
i have 2000km diven on waze, still level1 and after keep out one year, im forbbid to edit anything! i dont think i will came back again.
You gain editor levels by making quality edits within a 1 mile radius of the areas that you've driven. Some items are locked to higher level editors so that inexperienced editors don't accidentally create errors on vital roadways. Time, patience & dedication are what make good editors. Even without editing though the app itself proves very useful.
Good video!
I disagree with you. I use Waze as GPS in my car and I've never gotten a bad route. Before starting use Waze, I used to use Google Navigation (Google Maps) and had lots of problems like wrong directions and outdated maps. I'm a Waze Map Editor level 3 and I guess Waze has the best cartographic data base among all GPS applications I know.
werkt goed heeft af en toe moeite om de weg naar huis te vinden, wil me vaak over de snelweg laten rijden terwijl binne door veel korter en mooier is
I have an HTC One and just like my previous Galaxy Nexus it drains faster with waze than with a 3d game. Waze uses so much power that find it scary to activate because I might be walking with a dead phone. My phone doesn't overheat but waze just drains it.
Great tutorial, but 10 years old! Needs an updated version.
Waze is good and educated most of all Unique! 👍🎓💡🌠
This video shows complicated editing of existing maps. My problem is so much simpler, i.e. The direction of the numbering of the houses in the block of houses where I live. This has resulted in countless number of problems. How can I edit that?
This will deffo help with new editors :D
Under traffic jams, can you add traffic light malfunction and debris? Or maybe some way to mark roads as closed due to debris in the roadway. i.e. trees, power lines?
hello waze
i don't know where else to post this - so it has to be here, please help!!
today i got this message in an email:
Hi Angolhapsi,
The map issue you reported from 22.10.2013 on Dózsa György utca, Uraiújfalu ("first direction uses off-road 4x4 track to start ...") was fixed by Szikra. The map has been updated accordingly. You've helped many wazers. Thanks!
You can see the fixed area in the Waze map editor here .... [won't show link here]
Turns out that all that he did was delete
Easy way, select Navigate, Choose Home / Work from the list it will prompt you to add. Type in your address..
What if turn is (dis)allowed only during certain hours of the day or only during certain days of the week?
I have added speed cameras through the program, but they do not appear on the map. This was done back in June. I have also done a few map edits and still at level one. What do I have to do to move to another level?
I have been trying to do a Map Edit and it just keeps getting stuck!
When there's a map issue that doesn't fit nicely into the categories provided, is there a person we should send those issues to?
Why are the map always went back to prior the edit version although I have edited and saved it several times?
When I see a red light camera that is not announced I click to let Waze know but I'm not sure what happens once I do that. Will they actually be added to the program? I haven't noticed when I am driving.
Yes, it will.
+Sean Brown well actually, it'll appear on the map alerting other users.
I drove in England (Great Britain), from Watford to Finchley.
I am told to drive onto A41.
To me this is slow and wrong. Speed limit only up to 50mph
I drove on motorway M1. Speed limit 70mph
The map showed the M1 but does NOT recognise it as a road.
It continued to show as if I was driving on the A41.
I will check on the map if it shows the motorways around London: M25, M1, M2, M3, M4, M11, A1(M), M20, M23, M40.
If these are not shown as preferred routes, than Waze becomes useless in Britain.
Four years ago, Israeli friends recommended Garmin as the best satnav.
I ran both satnav systems at the same time, from Finchley to Potters bar.
Garmin gave better instructions on better, main roads.
This made my journey much simpler and faster.
There are also errors in north West London: N3, NW4, NW11.
For example: in Brent Cross shopping centre, it instructed me to go left, into a bus station.
This is illogical and against the law.
Yours,
oszpiro
Please go to www.waze.com/en/livemap click at the relevant spots and select "report a problem".
Then you can enter your description there.
or jump into editing yourself: www.waze.com/wiki/Map_Editing_-_select_map_editor
I think there is a bug with selecting routes. Today I selected the 2nd route, but Waze insisted on using the default route. On my wife's smart phone I also tried to select the second route, but got a more problematic response. On that Waze account, selecting the default route changed the destination to the previous (previous destination).
No mapa perto da minha casa (Macaé-RJ) onde deveria aparecer Rua Eurico Barbosa de Souza, está aparecendo rua Eugênio Junger que é em outro bairro. Como pode ser corrigido isso?
Very good map and finally I can update all the maps to the latest one and bravo to the inventor.
I cannot edit. I see the drives listed but when i click on road that I created it still tells me that i can only edit roads in area where i drived
Waze incorrectly routes people to our home and business and I cannot figure out how to fix it! I've watched the video, but it doesn't allow me to change.
I put an update into my account on my computer where I did a "Map Edit" and it is not showing up in the "Live Map." Is there some sort of waiting period or does somebody have to approve my change?
I find this extremely hard to use even after watching the video several times. There should be a place in the Waze app to report where a correct address is. I keep reporting this problem of an address being more than a mile away from where the driving directions show. I keep trying to fix the problem but just get an email from WAZE they need more information. Find this extremely frustrating.
I cannot find the edit option on my Android phone? Can one only edit the live map on Internet, or am I missing something?
Hello,
At the opening of Waze, then the itinerary, the map opens an address that is not my home, with the position (circle with X) on this card.
How to reset the position of my home as systematic starting point on a itinerary map, Please ? Thank you.
Muy bueno el tutorial. Gracias
Is it possible to add to WAZE "a temporary road closure " ?
Sir,
When you have such a good concept on map why don’t you launch Waze Taxi parallel to Uber/Lyft and come with a price which can benefit drivers because we are waiting for a third party who can better pay us more than Uber/lyft. Can you do this or accept this challenge
Does the "most up to date" claim apply for the German waze map?
always check your server!! If you login to the wrong server, you wouldn't be able to edit the map :)
Will I get any monetary advantage?
I requested area manager permission to a country manager in Brazil. Once he accepted, I became a level 3 editor. How many edit points do you have?
When I go to the Edit Map page, it loads the page blank. All I have is the tabs across the top. It also logs me out to where when I go back to the main page I have to log back in. Is there a plug-in I am missing?
accepting cookies?
Actually I forgot to come back and say I installed/downloaded Firefox and it works...the fine print of this application doesn't mention that IE is supported
How do I change the numbers on a road? I Always get the wrong place on a roadd because the numbers are incorrect.
I've been a logged-in Waze user for years but cannot access map editing. My screen looks nothing like the one shown in the vid and can't even find My Waze.
Shift-Click for the last point you wish to set and it will exit the point-adding
I have the new version and I don't like it can I change it back?
Does Google Maps share the updates users do on Waze?
Please get the satellite images for Sabah, Malaysia (Sandakan, Lahad Datu & Tawau). Thanks
When I go to "Fixing The Map," the link for the WME does not work. Where do you go now to download the editor?
Tracy Martin just vist waze.com, click on Live Map, login, and see "Edit Map" at bottom left.
you dont have to download editor
אינני מצליח לעדכן בעיית ניווט. בעת קביעת יעד: דרך בן גוריון 38 רמת גן, הניווט מוביל לרחוב בן גוריון בגבעתיים. הבעיה חוזרת בכל פעם כשאני קובע יעד זה.
אשמח לקבל הדרכה כיצד לדווח על כך ושהתוצאה תהיה אפקטיבית.
I HAVE A PROBLEM--WHEN I AM GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND PASS A WRECK OR POLICE--IT TAKES A WHILE TO GET THE PHONE AND SEND A MESSAGE-BUT I AM A MILE OR MORE PASS THE SITUATION--HOW CAN YOU GO BACK A PINPOINT THE SPOT CORRECTLY??
I have tried to register as map editor but despite numerous attempts failed. Bec I couldn't even get to login. Changed the password a few times and tried logging in, it displayed wrong username or password! Please tell me where I made the mistake!
how do i contact the area manager for South Carolina?
How can I add my own directions to the app?
Wow I wish Apple Maps had more accurate roads that are building or we can add them by hands yet we need to wait like idk how many yeas/month to see new roads
The point is that I want to help a lot to the WAZE custmers, but, we need to "repair" and "add" rotes only with the GPS. ´Coz, there´s too many roads that I can´t get conections with my chip of cell phone. So, If you fix it, everything will be more eaier.
EX: Waze, record your "fix problem" on its own drivers by using the gps. When you get a wifi or a area that you have connection, waze will offer if its can send the dados to the support to fix the problem.
Its my hint
You can click on Report, then Map issue, then Pave road. This means you will create a new road on the map.
Level 1 editor. Is there anything at all I can actually do? How do I become level 2??
I have asked over and over why does it always tell me the R/R crossing are closed
Muito obrigado
salve, io ho guidato fino ad Isola D'Arbia. Fino ai giorni scorsi, avevo nelle mie aree anche quelle zone e potevo editare. Avevo iniziato ad editare alcune strade su Ambra e dovrei terminare. Come mai oggi non ho più quelle zone nelle mie aree dove ho guidato? grazie
Muito bom, explícito e descomplicado!!! Tutorial tão bom quanto o App!!!
Sometimes I am getting a false directive like "turn right" when actually it is "turn left" or no turn ahead at all.
I have inserted roads on the map using the editing tool. I have received notification that "a map issue you reported is now resolved". But it still isn't showing up in the www.waze.com/livemap mode. And when I try to report a problem of a road being missing, the screen freezes and the email doesn't send. As a result it appears that all of the local roads that I have inserted may not be there, and I can't use waze to navigate to "home" since the system doesn't recognize my address!
It's a sinister plot/hack by google maps! Try the Gregory's paper version for a retrofit :-)
Hello there,
How long does it take for the changes on the map in "edit mode" are taken into account? (creation of roads, street names ...)
thank you in advance
+Fabien Riviere Usually about a week, but sometimes longer.
Danke
I have used waze for several months and tried to use the map editor for the past several days and it won't let me edit anything. I am just over waze not working correctly and will be deleting my profile and app soon. I won't recommend it after this horrible experience and not being able to get any help from anywhere since there is no place in the app or the website to actually contact someone.
I'm terribly sorry you feel this way. This is especially the case considering the huge amounts of support that I've found both on the waze wiki (wiki.waze.com/wiki/Main_Page) & the forums (www.waze.com/forum/). Also the live chat on the editing page provides access to freely given advice from editors with a wide range of experience. I'm not sure how you missed being able to contact anyone.
I would like to edit the map, but cannot seem get a close enough view on my android phone. The zoom in key does not function correctly. Is there no way to download to my laptop?
Regina Morf Just go to the website and click on "live map". There you can edit the road
I'm wondering why, after repeated attempts to mark traffic cams, they still do not show up on the maps?
What happened to the closure icon its gone
je crois que je vais m'inscrire; auparavant je voudrais connaître la signification des petites icônes que l'on voit le long des routes de la carte
Where should I comment about wrong directions? Seems whenever I go off the main roads (especially in the hills of SF Bay area) the directions are wrong.
К сожалению нет объяснения на языке большой земли :(
Работаю за рулём, добавил бы множество отсутствующих дорог, но к сожалению программа не переведена до конца :(
Why can't I use Waze on my new Smartphone and why is Waze showing 32 miles per hour when the Road is 20 mph?
How do Iput aniconin apoint of referencecreated byme?
Necesito que me enseñen en español
They never say where to go to edit maps! I can’t find the option.
Quisiera ser editor de mapa. Trabajo en transporte todos los días y siempre encuentro fallas.
Você é de qual país?
Hi, in which area/country/continent did you drive? I had the same problem at first. Then I found, I was on the wrong server. At first I was on waze.com. Now (since I drive in Europe) I changed to world.waze.com. Worked out for me! Hope I could help!
maps look correct but W voice instructions incorrect. how do you correct this on a map? -or get W to do it.. This is my first attempt to help a map but I have no interest in wasting time figuring out what to do and it is not obvious. Have had similar problems at several intersections where routing was obviously incorrect
How do I connect Waze too my in vehicle PA system
