7. Voice Search shouldn't require so many taps to work.

   The best driving apps are ones that you don't have to touch very often since that takes concentration away from the road. Waze lets you search via tapping the Microphone button but then still requires multiple taps to complete the request.

   Current steps:
   1) TAP magnifying glass
   2) TAP microphone
   3) Say name of place to go
   4) Look at the screen to see the list of possible suggestions
   5a) TAP the location you want if shown, or
   5b) TAP the Search button for more results and then TAP the location you want
   6) TAP the Go button
   7) TAP the Go Now button (or wait for the timer to expire)

   As you can see, this requires between 4 and 6 Taps to start navigation

   When I do a voice search, I almost always have the correct location as the first entry when I search with enough information (e.g. "Papa Johns North Avenue" instead of just "Papa Johns")

   I'd like to suggest an enhancement (could be toggleable in options) that would remove some of the requires Taps and give Waze more automation..

   I'd like to see it work as:
   1) TAP magnifying glass
   2) TAP microphone
   3) Say name of place to go
   4) Waze will search and automatically choose the first result as the location to go to
   5) TAP the Go button (put a short timer on this step so I don't have to tap anything)
   5a) I could tap Cancel/Back/whatever if it happened to find the wrong location and then I can use the normal steps up above
   6) TAP the Go Now button (or wait for the timer to expire)

   This reduces the number of times I have to interact with the phone to just the initial two Taps to bring up the voice search box. After that, Waze goes by itself. This would allow users to pay more attention to the road quicker without having to keep telling Waze what to do.

   Thanks

9. More voice warning before freeway exits, regardless of speed

   I noticed that the location of the voice instruction you hear before a freeway exit varies based on how fast you're going.
   Around 100 km/h, you get the voice instruction 1.5 kilometres before your exit.
   Around 80 km/h, you get the voice warning about 1 km before the exit.
   Around 60 km/h, you get the warning just 300 metres before the exit.

   It's the last one that I think is a problem. Some drivers rely mostly on the voice instructions either because we don't have a phone stand or because of restrictive laws regarding phone use while driving. And if you're on a freeway that has, say, 5 or more lanes, then regardless of what speed you're going at, 300 metres of warning before the exit simply isn't enough. The driver might suddenly have to dart across 5 or more lanes in 300 metres just to make their exit, and that's far too dangerous.

   Even at lower speeds, especially for roads with many lanes, such as freeways, Waze voice instructions should give greater warning before the next turn or exit - e.g. 1 or 1.5 km in advance, like we already get at higher speeds.

13. Simplified voice directions

    Voice directions can often be unnecessarily long and complicated (eg telling you not just the street or Road to turn down but the state route number which is irrelevant). I see you have bigger directions on and off options, but what about a simplified or minimal directions option? Where you only get Street names, you don’t get an initial “this torture is similar to state route bla bla bla” when starting directions, and perhaps even not several reminders about a turn, or if the next turn is within less than 1km you don’t have to hear the initial turn in one km, then another in 150m, then turn now, which really overkill. These all seem like simple ways that Waze can make a more user friendly, less frustrating drive where our music or podcasts aren’t constantly and forever being interrupted

15. Hyacinth Bucket voice

    The actress Dame Patricia Routledge passed away yesterday and was well known as the character Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced Bouquet!) and she was well known for telling her husband Richard how to drive, along with admonishments like “mind the pedestrian, Richard!” - she’d be an amazing English (UK) voice!

16. Voice activated Reports and AI

    I am surprised that after so many years Waze is lacking on basics.
    1. Please get up to speed with AI and voice activation to enable drivers to makes reports using their voice - AI can then automatically classify the report in the right category.

    Come on folks. This is basic stuff and very important for the safety of drivers. It doesn’t need to have votes for features that are COMMON SENSE!
