  1. 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.

  2. Voice instructions don´t work

    Hello,

    We wanted to ask, seeming to Android version 6.0.0 and higher, the sound is not working? (Voice instructions)

    It is impractical to constantly monitor display.

    Please Do you have any solutions?

    Does not work on the new Samsung Galaxy J5 and J5 2016.

    Other functions work perfectly.

    Thank 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!

    Want to try another voice?

    Tap Menu and tap the Settings wheel.
    Tap Voice & sound.
    Tap Voice Language and select the voice you’d like to use.

  4. Voice commands for waze direction

    Sometimes you have to change your route/direction in the middle of a trip. There's nowhere to pull over. Waze does not allow you to type on the provided keyboard while driving. Voice commands will be very safe and useful for all wake users that need to reroute while still getting accurate route to new destination.

  9. 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…

  11. Give us back the classic robot voice

    Give us the option to have the classic 'robot' voices back (specifically Kate UK). This new "more human" voice is not conducive to how I use Waze, because I find that I tune out instructions that sound like just a person talking in the car. I want my driving instructions to sound like instructions, not idle car chitchat.

  13. 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.

  15. Wayzz from Miraculous as a voice

    Wayzz is a little turtle that gives characters super powers and he’s helpful in the show and his voice would be a good nav assistant and his name is fitting for obvious reasons

  17. Piper Wright as a voice option

    Would love Courtney Ford who plays the snoopy reporter from the game Fallout 4 Piper Wright, to be an option as a map guidance. She’s got a very calming voice and in game she’s funny, with her lines and remarks about places.

  18. Famous italian people voice added

    We should get famous people like "Gigi D'Agostino" or "Nino D'Angelo" and more famous people, We only got AI voices, and if we want to use the voices ad example of someone viral on tktok Italy we need to pay, or a friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend (50x) needs to share to others friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend-of-friend (50x) and it's a loop (or if you don't have a Waze friend, then you need to pay) so it will be cool using like conlavocedi.com and ciaoiosonochico.it voices for an example and add into the voice navigation

  19. New ways to personalize the voice

    I would like the option to upload previously recorded mp3 files to the personalized sound recordings area. The quality would be much better than recording through my iphone microphone. I could also record and let others use my voice as well if they wanted.
