Why, why, why have you removed the "Ok Waze" function. This worked brilliantly and like all software/App developers you've messed around trying to improve the App and actually made it worse. Put it back please and I'll continue to use it. If not then you've lost a customer!

I don't want to take hands off the wheel when driving. I want to be able to say OK Google, navigate to Favorites Mom and Dad's or navigate to Favorites Mike and Tracy's when "Mom and Dad's" and "Mike and Tracy's" are Favorites.

People create Favorites for convenience. The Waze search can find a Favorites. It should not be difficult to enable the Waze Voice Command to search for and match a Favorite and this will improve the convenience of Favorites.

At the present time, you must either:
Select Search
Select Favorites
Scroll to the location of the Favorite and select the Favorite
or
Select the Search bar
Enter the name of the Favorite
Select the Favorite
Select Go

I would really like to see talk to waze options come back. I really like it. Please bring it back.

Please bring back the "OK Waze" Feature. It was extremely convenient for when you were driving down the road. Now, you have to touch your phone or type an address in manually, instead of being able to just use the OK Waze feature. Please bring it back. thank you

Many times, including yesterday, when I press the microphone button to use text-to-speech (TTS; text to speech) to navigate somewhere, it says it's updating, which means it's unusable. This means I have to type instead of speak, which is less convenient and less safe. When the user presses the mic button, indicating they want to use that feature, it is NOT the time to initiate an update of it. That would be like if a launcher app decided to update the drawer when you go to open it, basically saying come back later to find and open the app you're trying to use. Update in the background, either when the app isn't being use or once navigation is started, but STOP updating right when I'm trying to use it.

Keep ASK WAZE !!

I don't like or want google assistant it is horrible Bad voice can barely hear it., echos, sorry it is also stupid give you nothing close to what you are asking for.!!!!

It is bad enough google absconded with waze but stop making a good product worse .
