I use Waze every day. I also park in a garage every day. To that end, I go from navigation to alerts only and back, at least every day.

I would like you to look at the UX involved in swapping from one mode to the other. I think it should be easier to do this directly from the app - not from the menu below the main screen.

When I am navigating, I have to tap the bottom bar, open up the next screen, tap the speaker icon, select the alerts only switch, then hit close and close again.

I suggest that, while navigating, the bottom bar have a button for switching to alerts only directly from the bottom bar. tap to open the menu, tap to go to alerts only and close the menu. 2 taps total.

You have this interaction available when I am not navigating, now I want it when I am please.
