Change Voice Command Trigger
Love that you have voice control now but could i suggest a change. Given what you do would it not be fun to say Hi Waze and then to close you could say Bye Waze. so you would have Highways and Byways.
I'm sure we could get some other good road puns in there.

Bring back the voice that says “rookie” and “newbie”
Bring back the voice that says “rookie” and “newbie”
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!

Fun Voice Idea for Waze Navigation – Featuring Sajda Obeid!
Hi Waze Team,
I hope you're doing well!
I had a fun idea I wanted to share with you: what if Waze collaborated with the beloved singer Sajda Obeid to create a voice pack for navigation? Her iconic songs about "left" and "right" are already a huge part of Arabic pop culture, and hearing her guide us with her unique voice would not only be nostalgic but also incredibly entertaining (and accurate — no more missed exits!).
Imagine a voice that sings you through your turns, keeps you smiling through traffic, and brings a little musical magic to every drive.…

Fix Google Assistant Voice Reporting
For a couple years now Voice Reporting, especially with Google Assistant, has been broken and not working properly.
When you say "Hey Google, report _____" , it processes the command for a bit and then doesn't post the report on the map. Nothing happens.
Clearing App Cache doesn't help.
Redoing Voice Calibration doesn't help.
Reinstalling the app doesn't help.
Rebooting the phone or app doesn't help.A patch for this issue is extremely critical considering it makes the app unsafe to use. The whole point of a hands-off feature is to prevent distracted driving.
This is a safety issue, please…

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...

Master Chief voice and all other sidekicks unavailable
Formerly had the Master Chief voice from it's original introduction to this year when it suddenly vanished from my options. Now it's back and I cannot pick ANY sidekick voice options... I've tried all troubleshooting and I'm pretty sure it's a program glitch .. please fix 😭 I delete the app entirely, delete my cache, tried debug FIVE times and am truly gutted I lost the voice let alone likely won't have this resolved before it's gone again.... Never changed anything setting wise, just every option says there's an error

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…

Lucifer Morningstar as a Navigation Voice
I’d love to suggest adding Lucifer Morningstar (from the Netflix series Lucifer) as a voice option for navigation.
He’s charming, sarcastic, effortlessly confident, and always has something clever to say—traits that would fit perfectly into Waze’s fun, personality-filled navigation style. His voice (played by Tom Ellis) would make any drive more entertaining.
Lucifer already has a massive fanbase, and his personality is made for this kind of feature.
Thanks for considering—and if others agree, upvote this post!

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.

Voice Input and HOV Options in Android Auto
Allow for voice input (for stops/searches) while driving and give options for HOV travel while in Android Auto. Having to pull over while on a freeway to add a stop if it is not within your most recent stops is really frustrating and dangerous.

Waze App - Create Own Preferred Route.
Hi.
It would be great, if we could create a Navigation Route based on our own personal drives. I usually (99%) drive the same route many times a week.
However, the app doesn’t recognise some directions i go and has to recalculate it. If, having the preferred route stored without any recalculating, it be a nice touch.
Thanks!

voice notifications regarding directional information
I miss the function for setting of the voice notifications regarding directional information. for example, before a change of direction, I am informed repeatedly or several times about the further direction of travel. However, it would be useful to be able to set the interval of such messages individually.
Technically, this could scale like this, for example:
shortly before the object
100 meters before the object
200 meters before the object
etc.

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.

Courtney Ford as the voice speaker.
I think it would be neat to have the News reporter Piper Wright (played by Courtney Ford) from Diamond City, from the Bethesda Game Fallout 4 as a map voice guide.

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.
