What's new on WME?
More user details in URs!
Finally, a much anticipated feature is here! An expanded list of reporter settings now appears in URs, making it much easier for you to understand and resolve reports. See the full list of reporter settings.
New editor moods

New on Waze
Live gas prices in UK and Slovenia
Wazers in the UK and Slovenia now see real-time gas prices in Waze! Kudos for building automated feeds that display official governmental gas pricing in the app. Want to do the same for your area? Talk to your local lead!
Quick route settings
Now Wazers get a clear overview of their current settings and they can modify them along their route. It’s a great feature for those who may not be aware of all the settings available in the app.
Meetups and upcoming events!

Marvelous meetups
A round of applause goes to members who met for a Waze Cafe in Hawaii and for the Waze Localization Community’s first online meetup. And that’s just the beginning! Soon, our meetups and cafes will be happening in many places, spreading the Waze love around the world!
How you helped drivers
Carnival of Brazil and the community
Carnival of Brazil is so much fun, but it also creates hundreds of major traffic events that affect millions. Our community in Brazil managed closures with local partners in advance, including joining traffic control centers!
Two new coordinators elected in Brazil!
The community voted for alemenezes to represent Southeast Brazil and MauricioCGB to represent Center-South. Congrats to you both! We’re certain that you (together with tenlucas) will take the community to the next level!
The Vietnam Community steps up reporting
This community stepped up its activity by creating a Community Partner Hub account. They’ve already started using the Reporting Tool to let Wazers know about sudden speed changes on the roads, which in some areas occur daily.
Thanks for reading!
