Alert sounds
Please can you add the ability to enable Wazers to select alert sounds. The speed limit alert sound is so short and quiet it is almost impossible to hear even at full volume. The ringing bell for roadworks is so loud and clear but doesn’t really need to be! I would love to be able to select the sound for each alert notification. Thanks!

Great timing! We’re currently working on having an option to select alert sounds. Keep an eye out for updates in your app store.

For some reason alerts don’t work and the voice just speaks out the issue. Can we have the ability to choose between audio alerts of voice

Hey! Are you still working on it?

Include in your review of alert sounds attributes for uniqueness, volume and length. Perhaps consider spoken 'announcements' for some alerts instead of sounds e.g. "OVERESPEED", "CAMERA", "HAZARD". For "OVERSPEED" Include the ability to set for the announcement/alert to be repeated every 'so many seconds' if overspeed continues.

There should be an option to mute the chime sound (or replace it with silence) also - and only that - not having to set sound to "alerts only". It was not there in the past, so please put an option in to disable it again. When driving on roads with a lot of section controls, the constant "ding" is driving people/passengers nuts. On top, the chime loudness & duration are so long that it mutes playing music for too long.

I would like the overspeed alert to be an alarming sound, not the audio equivalent of "ahem".

Any updates on this for Android? This isn't incorporated in V5.6.5.2

The speed camera alert sound is just a short beep that can easily be missed. There needs to be a setting to change the alert to a more distinctive sound. From searching around I can see this has been a missing feature for several years, so I won't hold my breath.

Separating the volume of the alert sounds and voice would help, too. I can barely hear Christina Aguilera directing me, but the alert sound scares me every time there's a stopped car.

Allow user choice of the various alert sounds

My wife hates listening to Sarah notify us of upcoming warnings. How about using sound clips instead (ex. siren for upcoming police)
