I see no benefit to the new voice. Perhaps there was some improvements back end but thomas and Kate are absolutely horrible now. Massive step backwards.

Bring back Thomas

i wanit orignal thomas back to waze plesse

I need old Thomas voice back to Waze

Bring back old Thomas UK with street names. Female Kylie AU with street names has the perfect cadence and style like the old Thomas UK with street names, and would be perfect if you could use Thomas’s lower pitched voice. Anyone having hyperacusis or sensitivity to high frequencies or pitch will appreciate listening to the deeper voice. Thanks!

I can't use the replacement nor any of the alts, so waze is now muted & after many years of recommending it to others, I'm considering other satnav apps instead

It's a safety issue.
I am a hearing-impaired driver, higher frequencies are inaudible regardless of their volume.
Original Thomas was the only voice in a lower register who knew the street names.
Waze's cancellation of this reasonable accommodation for a physical disability is not only discriminatory but also unsafe and possibly illegal under the ADA.

SO DISAPPOINTED !!! THE NEW UK THOMAS SUCKS !!! .... HE DOESN'T EVEN SOUND BRITISH. ARE YOU SERIOUS ??? HE SOUNDS LIKE A DRILL SARGENT BARKING ORDER TO TURN HERE ... ETC... ALSO ... WHAT THE **** IS
EXPUWHY ? ( SAYING THE ABBREVIATION FOR EXPRESSWAY ??? ). !!!
HEY NEW THOMAS. YOU'RE FIRED !!!

If you wanted a new Thomas, you should have left the old one and just added a Thomas 2. Or maybe try out a new name. But instead the good UK Thomas was replaced with a bad one. Check your facebook posts. You'll see the public wants him back.

Also bring back UK Kate, not the new Kate or Kate 2.

Why make the voice so clinical? Add a bit of softness and flare.

I totally agree!! The same with Siri. I had the guy Australian. Now they changed it. I don’t like the new one on it either.

The new version of Thomas is awful. The older version was just right and easy to listen too and follow. Please bring him back asap!

I want the calm and sophisticated Thomas voice back. If I want to be directed by a irritable and impatient man I will have my husband navigate.

The new Thomas talks too fast, feels rushed, adding unnecessary stress to the driving experience. Please allow access to the old Thomas.

The old voices were clear and friendly. I can't use Waze with any of the new voices. Bye bye...hello Google maps.

Dreadful impersonal robotic voice, first Kate and not Thomas. Will be looking elsewhere for GPS guidance.

I've been driving with Thomas for YEARS! This new voice is awful and skeeves me out.

Bring back original Thomas

The new Thomas talks way too fast. It has become a distraction.

The new Thomas UK voice is awful -- why, if a new voice was needed, was the perfectly good old voice replaced? Why not just introduce the new one (that no one likes) and leave the old one? The new one neither sound good nor works well. It misprounounces many words and street names. It's abrupt. It's grating.
I'm just not going to use the app anymore unless it is brought back. Easy enough. I don't need you; you need me as a customer paying you with my data and interaction.
