I can’t add my house name

Hello. I tried to add my house name (Halleydown) to the Waze map but it says it’s already got a name or number. I need to correct this as no one can find me! This is the Google maps location 837M+RRX Rothbury, Morpeth and I’ve added a screenshot.

On Waze, Houses with names are mapped as a POI (Place of Interest) with the category of Other

I’ve added it to the map - see https://waze.com/en-GB/editor?env=row&lat=55.31329&lon=-1.91439&zoomLevel=19

It takes a couple of days to reflect in the app

Please could you also add the entrance where I’ve marked on this screenshot? I tried on my phone but it wasn’t having it.

Just to check - does it take a while to update? Just it’s still not where my house is. Thanks.

Looks like this is coming from Google Maps at the moment - I’ve connected it up to the Waze venue and it should start to display correctly in the coming days. I’ll check back in a couple of days to make sure it’s sorted out.

I’ve just checked in the app and it seems to be using the correct point now. Make sure to clear any recent searches and it should show correctly for you too.
