Hi all, fairly new and enjoying the app tried my hand at editing the map and adding roads etc which was fine. But is there a way wherein map editors can add/ remove the turns which are seen on maps as right or left signs in a black square ( and on travelling waze gives a voice prompt )


As in many cases they are incorrect - even when one has to go straight it prompts to turn left or right and in many places one needs to turn right / left there is no prompt

Dear Gaurav,

Since you are just starting to edit the map, can I ask you whether you have seen the WAZE GPS Channel on YouTube ?

Waze GPS Channel

There is a Waze Map Editor Guide, which has six parts. I recommend you watch those, and also go through the Map Editing Wiki. These resources will give you a good idea of how to correctly update maps and give the user the best possible directions to reach a destination.

Please come back to us after you have understood these resources. Feel free to ask us any doubts or questions if you have any.

Gaurav, what you are looking for is fairly simple and won't take you long to get a hold of things. Just like Chris said, read those resources

BTW, where are you from?
