Please use a professional Chinese voice, for example, the previous Lily one
The previous Chinese voice: Lily is VERY great, clear and professional, our Chinese community really loves it.
But in the recent update, the voice is GONE! We don't know why.
Actually, I searched and just found it online, you can check why your team deletes her voice.
If you really replace with new ones, please make sure the new ones are as good as the previous ones. Because the current Mandarine voice (Tongtong and Xioameng) is just so so, which is definitely from a non-native Chinese speaker.
Thanks.

Can't agree anymore, the voice is too slow, too weak, too laggy.
It's almost impossible to use with Chinese voice. -

Oh my god, I've been complaining the same issue by emails all through the years form 2019 to 2021 (ticket 9-2640000028355).
The Lily voice was so good, so clear, so loud, so quick, and now, the Chinese mainland voice Tongtong is just a slower version of the Chinese Taiwan voice! Unacceptable!
Hey, it's not even Mandarine, we never say 公尺 as meter, we say 米! And you know what? This is the most used word in Waze, but it's wrong!
And Tongtong is too slow, too weak, too laggy. Unbelievable, I've been complaining this issue so many times, every time the response was wasting my time, you just don't want to solve a real problem!
I can switch to US Amy, it's not a problem to me. But I'm trying to let my parents use Waze, they can only understand Mandarine! And just because of the stupid voice Tongtong, they can't use Waze!
Please fix it, or at least give us a reasonable answer. I think the iOS system TTS could even be better than the current Tongtong!
