Add new sound option for Nav directions. Use sound as opposed to voice.
Another sound option to have a "ding" (or something similar) to notify the driver of upcoming driving actions (turns, exits, etc.) as opposed to Voice Nav is extremely desirable for me. It would be useful in providing the user the ability to still accurately know when to make the correct turns to get to their destination and avoiding the often lengthy voice directions that are often intrusive to consuming content in the car (podcasts, music, etc.) or intrusive to simply having conversation with company.

Custom voice recording to be of higher quality
The quality of the audio when recording a persons voice is horrible. It sounds like I'm speaking through a mic using wired earphones from the early 2010's. Please do whatever you can to make the audio sound like the microphone made by the manufacturer of the mobile brand. There have been so many complaints about this, outside of this forum and I can't believe it still has not been fixed yet.

Request for Jerry Seinfeld as an available voice, or another comedian
No voice has come close to Mr. T in the last few years. How about a comedian, such as Jerry Seinfeld, to help guide us in our treks?

Misleading Voice contractions
When Waze voice is talking, the software uses English contractions. Two words contracted into one word. For example "you have" is contracted to the single word "you've". The use of contractions by Waze voice is misleading and can lead to drivers getting lost. Currently, when approaching your destination, Waze will say "You'll arrive in 1000 feet". This is confusing and can be misinterpreted as "You've arrived". Instead, Waze should NOT use contractions and instead speak each individual word. "You will arrive in 1000 feet." "You have arrived at your destination."

Voice activated hazard reporting
Hi,
I would like to suggest getting,
1. AI technology for self learning and improving maps as in some instances wazers know better routes to that of the waze map.
2. Voice activated controls in reporting hazards - in the UK unfortunately even tapping the phone while driving can lead to prosecution and driving bans. If somehow, waze can be voice activated when reporting hazards or police presence, etc. For example we say, "Hey Google" to activate and request Google assistance.
In waze we already can voice activate destinations through Google assistance.
My point is to avoid touching the phone…1 vote -

Voice Change Glitch and Popping Sound?
When using Waze with voice enabled it switches to a different voice for some lines? It didn’t always but lately it switches from the normal voice to a young girl calling red light cameras “Stoplight paparazzi” lol. Also, sometimes while driving with alerts only the music lowers and a pop sound plays and the music returns?? What does that mean?

Instead of having a voice telling you there is a hazard ahead, why not have a function that just dings instead of the voice.

Bring back the Colombian navigator voice!
What happened to the Colombian woman's voice? She was fun.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion!
As you probably know, some of the voices we feature are promotional, meaning they are only available for a limited time.
We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.
You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!

I want voice control in other languages (Swedish for me). There are laws in other countries that you can not tap their mobile phones while driving. And come to Sweden too.
