Add the "sound" options to the "quick access" settings
Add the "sound" options to the "quick access" settings so you can tap the screen and get a sound icon (just like the zoom feature). It could give the 3 choices (on/off/alerts only). Currently it is difficult to turn sound on/off which I often do.

Sound option is always available on the ETA bar at the bottom right.

Please reduce the number of clicks needed to mute/ unmute/alerts only for the voice direction sound setting during navigation. There should be a small icon like google maps to quickly change sound settings. The current interface requires 4-5 clicks and going to the menu and is unsafe while driving.

Context: I have been using the Waze app for about a year without knowing what happened to my audio alerts. Today, I finally discovered how to set them with this helpful help:

As far as I can the "ETA bar" is the only means to access sound preferences. This is a poor design. That button is usually much smaller than any other button on the app, making it hard to see and hard to press.
My proposal: Why not also access it via the settings?
