Lane guidance is a new Waze app feature that shows the user exactly which lanes they should use to make their next movement. This feature boosts Wazer confidence by providing reassurance in junctions both typical and unusual. Lane guidance data is added via the Waze Map Editor (WME). When a single segment is selected in the WME, an additional tab called Lanes is available. The Lanes tab allows map editors to tell Waze which lane to display to the driver for lane guidance in the mobile app.

There are some important considerations regarding lane guidance in Waze:

• Lane guidance does not affect routing - it is merely a visual feature.
• Lane guidance does not affect audio instructions, with the exception of u-turn instructions resulting from heuristics for intersections on divided roads.
• Lane guidance will only be displayed when a navigation instruction is given. If the best continuation is straight ahead, lane guidance will not be shown, unless there is a continue straight TIO.

As of 26 April 2020 (2020-04-26) The Lanes tab is only visible in the WME to rank 4 editors and lane guidance in the App is only visible to beta testers. The lane mapping feature of WME and the lane guidance feature of the mobile app are both still under development. Please check this guide frequently for updates to features and guidance.
