A safer way to drive using your voice not the screen
To improve driver safety, Waze needs a completely hands-free way to report hazards and answer prompts without any screen taps.
Hands-Free Voice Integration: Waze should integrate directly with "OK Google". A driver should be able to say, "OK Google, report a pothole," and Waze should automatically log the hazard at their exact live GPS location without requiring a street name or a manual button press.
The Battery & Review Solution: To address developer concerns about battery drain, implement a settings toggle alongside a mandatory startup reminder every time the app opens:
If toggle is ON: "Always Listening is ON. Please plug in your charger to prevent battery drain."
If toggle is OFF: "Always Listening is OFF. Turn it on in settings for 100% hands-free voice reporting."
This eliminates the hazard of touching the screen, uses existing voice triggers, and protects Waze from bad reviews through clear, upfront reminders.
Advice should pop off and tell you what the speed limit is charging to.
No point sending a beep ,so you got to look down to the screen taking your eyes off the road, just to look at what the speed is. Or over by
Also it would be nice if you can have the speedo a little bit bigger as a visual top , because when you're on a motorbike ,you haven't got the time to . Look down and focus into the speedo when you trying to avoid potholes. Twisted curves idiots driving, when you're on a motorbike
you need to keep your eyes focused on the road ahead. Not be looking it down at the beep to see what the beef is about. Why not have it vocally say the speed has changed to 30. The speed has changed to 50. Whatever there is a red light, why not? It's crazy to have a Sutton ave that can give you directions, but you expect us to be touching the screen because of this not being implied on your maps
Additional when you're approaching a roundabout instead of just doing that stupid little blue line zoom in give a street view a real street view 3D angle as if you like. Looking at the road as you're approaching it showing which lane to get into rather than a little arrow on the top of the screen. A vocal saying getting to the left lane or right lane and make sure it's got Google map images of that roundabout as you're approaching it and going around it to make sure you're getting off on the right roundabout. All right, get into the right lane on the roundabout, etc. This would be extremely great for new riders. Are people in new areas that don't know the road because I've seen that you've put in farmland entrances as an exit and then I've seen it over times that you see it, but you don't register it as an exit, so sometimes it says to take it when it's not even a valid turning. Additionally to that when you're approaching a roundabout and you've got a slip rod instead of saying take the first exit try saying take the exit on the side of the roundabout at the side cuz there's sometimes the exit on the left which is your first exit and then you got your phone about exit which is your first left. So if you don't show a visual line ers to understand the world and then when you're on the roundabout, let it follow around on the street view image of the roundabout until you get off the roundabout rather than a stupid little blue line that is very handy. Determine when you're trying to focus on the road

Safety on our roads , can be better if voice control like ok Google , is accessable , real images of street view when it comes to turning on multiple lane roads 2-3 and slip roads with a street view going around roundabout with arrows not blue line
