Trying to use Waze using voice activation .
Okay Google open waze.
Okay Waze drive home.... doesn't work because of Waze pop ups like "rate us" prevents voice commands.

Anoying enough by car to just switch to another app...
And completely un usable by motorcycle using in helmet coice commands.1 vote -

If you are from these areas and far from home then it’s a big thing to hear a familiar sounding voice. Currently there is not one Scottish voice at all and we feel left out

Kate (UK) voice: needs some tweaks
Unlike some other users here, I like the new 'Kate (UK)' voice: I like her tone & generally clear pronunciation. My complaint, however, is when she says "Go straight on": the last "t" of the word "straight" is completely dropped (i.e she says "Go straigh on"), which is out of character with the rest of her otherwise good enunciation, & very annoying! Please fix with an update when you can! Thanks...

use voice directions based on signs
voice navigation (following waze's directions by ear, without looking on the screen)
as I understand, currently the orders are given by street name, this may cause difficulties in situation where route that should be driven has tottaly different naming and signs (happened to me...). my suggestion is to make a consideration in sign when defining the voice navigation for each junction, or let us the users to add the street name that is seen on the sign.1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Voice notifications in Car play are too loud and horrible
The voice alerts are too loud and the voice is also very unpleasant to the ears and also it sounds like the voice is too much amplified that it sounds distorted/breaking.
Please fix this bug. Otherwise providing feature to control the volume of voice alerts would be great. It is possible in my Audi to change volume of Alerts/Notifications/Navigation separately from the Music volume when using Sygic app.

Junction after junction only pre-alert by voice, no graphic indicates.
Turn after turn only mention in voice over, has no graphic indicater. Ex. Keep right then the next keep left right aways less then 100 meter.
It's easy to miss the second voice over, and it's very dangerous to driver.
Such as: keep right 200 Meter + keep left 50 Meter.

Could you voice when…
- It would be nice to hear a Voice when there is a reroute option when there is an accident.
- It would be safer for the driver to be able to speak to Waze when there is an accident, police, hazardous materials on the road or a car on the side etc.

Cha Cha Slide Themed Voice
Upon selecting the "Cha Cha Navigator" voice, users are greeted with: "Welcome to the Cha Cha Navigator! Let's slide through traffic together."
Instead of traditional directions, instructions are given in the style of the song:"Slide to the left" for a left turn."Slide to the right" for a right turn.Everybody clap your hands" when arriving at the destination.
Playful warnings for speed cameras or police:"Speed camera ahead, cha cha real smooth now!"Customization:Users could also customize the intensity of the Cha Cha Slide references, choosing from "Mild Slide," "Moderate Slide," or "Full Slide" to suit their preference.I believe this playful and engaging…

Implement user-configurable delay (in increments of 0.1 sec) for voice alerts
Some vehicle Bluetooth implementations have lengthy handshaking which prevents the first second or two of Waze voice alerts from actually being heard. My car has a feature that ramps up the volume of a Bluetooth phone incrementally on first connection. However, the impact is that in most driving situations, the first two seconds are simply too quiet to be heard!
For example, instead of "In 500 metres, turn right onto Main Street.", all you hear is ".. to Main Street". Obviously, this information is unclear and confusing, forcing the driver to glance at the map on the phone to verify…

Navigation voice settings should be persistent.
More often than not, I know where I'm going, but would like to know about traffic incidents/alerts. As such I like to use waze in alerts only mode. However, every so often, waze will decide that it will turn itself back to full voice navigation even though I did not select that. I do not know what triggers it, but it does continue to happen. Just when I think it's going to stay, the settings get switched. It's quite annoying that it can't keep a setting.

Voice navigation bug
When I in Settings - Sound and Voice turn off sound, in some cases ( for example road warnings, speed cameras) waze send "sound notification" to android, which cause mute music, although waze does not say anything. It is annoying, when I drive in my town, waze is launched only for control my speed (via gps) and sometimes mutes music without any reason. Please, fix this. Thanks.
