provide a Navigation Prompt whenever the road name changes.
This is needed in two scenarios:
When a turn from Smith Ave to Jones Street, for example, is slight enough the client provides no direction. No matter how slight the angle of entry to a new road is, the client should say "turn right" or "slight right" on the road with a different name than the current road. This is especially confusing if Waze is running in the background, since my eyes are telling me I'm at an interchange and Waze isn't providing direction.
Also, when the road you are driving on changes names but continues straight in the same direction, it would be nice to hear "Continue straight on...." When the last command you heard was "Turn right on Apple Street", it can be disconcerting to find yourself on Orange Ave when you look at the street signs, knowing you haven't made any turns.

Definitely agree with this one, especially when the road type changes as well. e.g. if I'm at a light on a four or six lane road and straight ahead is a two lane road with a different name, a "continue straight on xxxx road" direction would prevent confusion.
