option to disable the "This route is x faster than this other route"
Currently, after choosing a destination in Waze, it will also tell you that the route it's telling you is faster than some other route.
Why is theere a need to tell me that the current route is 6 minutes, 10 minutes, 17 minutes faster than the other route? It's a waste of time waiting for it to stop describing the slower route's time and streets/highways.
I would like an option to disable the post-selection vocal description of slower routes.

Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

What is the point of telling me that the route I'm in is faster than one I didn't choose? What is the value added?
This is an unnecessary distraction.

Please add a button to this feature when it pop up to allow you from this screen to view the faster routes. currenlty when it pops up you have to wait for the count down to end or close the window and then open the window to view your route options. It be great to keep my eyes more on the road then to wait or shuffle through the extra windows.
Thank you

The 'There is a better route, recalculating' feature is a bit problematic.
Especially if I have deliberately selected a route from the initial stage, it's annoying to then be told to go a different way, when I was deliberately avoiding a particular area/road/route.
This is then compounded by the "There is a better route" feature, because if I'm in an area with poor or unavailable cellular coverage, Waze is unable to re-calculate the route and because it forgets the original route at that point, it effectively gets lost. This is not helpful.It should be able to retain the previous route that was
