  2. Notification-style sound instead of voice.

    Waze has 2 styles for navigation guidance:
    1 is full voice alerts; and
    2 is alerts only for hazards and missed turn/exit/...

    When normal navigation voice is selected, a voice will alert me of of an upcoming exit in 1 mile, then 1/4 of mile. sometimes a .1 mile and if another "turn" or "keep right" is after that, I might have 1-3 minutes of alerts and stopped music.

    Because of this I mostly use Alerts Only but then this setting does not alert me of of upcoming turns unless I miss my exit. I must have the app open…

  3. Fix the C3PO voice advice.

    The voice suggests, "Turn right (or left), Master." This is offputting to many of us, sensitive to the term, 'Master', implying slavery. Perhaps if he said, "Turn right (or left), Master Jedi, it would be more acceptable. As an Uber driver, I've had riders complain about that, so I went back to the generic voice.

  4. Voice Instructions: Bear Right, Keep Right

    Voice navigation instructions use "Keep Right (Left) in 2 conditions making it a bit confusing: When on an undivided road approaching a divided section of the same road, and when approaching an intersection with a gradual right (left) turn. "Bear Right (Left)" would be a more appropriate instruction for the 2d situation.

  5. Essential + Limited voice navigation during phone call

    When making phone calls in the car, voice navigation can be highly distracting, yet it's still important to have critical turn-by-turn navigation when you're headed to an unfamiliar destination.

  6. Bob Uecker voice (brewers announcer)

    Milwaukee born Bob Uecker was the public address announcer for the Milwaukee Brewers. He was beloved by all and often imitated. Wisconsinites, not just Brewers fans would love to have him as their GPS voice. There’s a lot of material available to construct a Waze voice.

  8. Voice directions repeats and updates

    If I receive a voice message of probable long duration e.g. "Follow route for 10 miles" followed by a period of silence I get nervous after a time that I have made a road selection mistake. An on-screen option or a Settings switchable option to repeat last voice message or current voice message would be reassuring eg every 5 miles or every 5 minutes..

  11. Improve spoken voice prompts speed

    I often find that when driving at speeds faster than 50mph and approaching roundabouts(slowing down of course) off slip roads from dual carriageways/ Motorways often the voice prompts are to slow in mentioning in what turn I need resulting in me needing to go around the roundabout twice to understand the given direction or as the case in the last few days actually being told which turn whilst on the roundabout going past the turn I needed!!

    Please look into this as my Garmin unit still gets used a lot because of this problem making it sometimes unsafe to consider…

  18. Change sound settings by voice command

    Change sounds settings by voice command instead of by hand as sometimes the change in needed quickly
    Additionally it would be a good idea to be able to make reports by voice instead of using hands

  19. Listening tone.... When ready to accept a voice comand

    When you tap to give a voice comand a box comes up with a red bar that turns green when the app is ready to listen to the comand.... If you speak to early you have to try again and unless you keep you eye on the bar you have to guess when to start to talk. There should be a tone that signals the green listening mode.

  20. A voice for parents that reminds them to take the kid out

    Every year we have several cases of kids who are forgotten in the car. Add a voice that is just like the normal one, only after saying "you have arrived" it reminds you to make sure no one is left in the car.
    It can also be another notification recorded in all voices and if you mark you are a parent, it will be added after each ride.
