Voice nav is buggy presents wrong work and home addresses.
Voice navigation doesn't work. I have home and work defined, but when I tell Waze "Drive to work" it shows me an unknown address in another state!.

Airplane icon and Air Traffic Control voice
There should be an option to have a commercial airplane as your vehicle icon while driving. I also think it would be cool to have a voice that sounds like Air Traffic Control and alert sounds similar to what you would hear in an airplane.

Wake up command and Voice Reporting
Hi the New beta is fine but we still need a button to report by speech, because you are still forced to press buttons on smartphone to report a situation we need a wake up command IN WAZE
(like hi Waze please report traffic ahead). Or Hi Waze Report. And Waze says: what would you like to report? Traffic ahead.
- same as google but google Assistent commands only affects and redirects to google browser..
Not waze it does nothing in Waze. Only google maps!
I noticed Waze doesn't have a

Calculate ETA based on own average speed
ETA calculation seems to be based on traffic conditions and general average speed. ETA calculation seems to be inaccurate when driving below the average speed of the road-segment as it keeps increasing while driving with constant (low) speed.
It would be great if ETA calculation would also be accurate for vehicles going below average speeds (e.g. trucks in europe etc.)

Country-based voices sorting
Why do users have to scroll an incredibly long list to choose which voice should guide them? How many users frequently use another language for their voices in the client?
Let's make the list country-based or, at least, configurable.For example: I'm Italian, I would like to have the three ITA voices on top of the list, but maybe you can't change the list based on positioning, so let give me the opportunity to sort my favourite voices manually on top!

Bluetooth power saving causes voice to be cut. Play custom sound file before.
Some phones and car radios have a power saving feature that mutes sound if no sound is played. Then, if a voice directive comes, it SHOULD be:
"in 100 meters, turn left"
but it IS:
"ers, turn left"So an option to let the user play a custom sound file befor every directive would be useful:
"[BING] ... in 100 meters, turn left."3 votesThanks for reaching out.

Voice-over lady comments have to end!!!!
The voice-over ladies comments are absolutely annoying when you travel across country or just in our city...just stick to the facts without all the other quirky comments she makes. I.e...police ahead....don't need to include "and that is all I have to say about that!' PLEASE STOP THIS ANNOYANCE IMMEDIATELY. We don't need her commentary.

Voice reporting
It's dangerous to take your eyes off the road to tap the phone. Simple, single word utterances could be made for each button on the screen so reporting could be both timely, and safe.
1 voteGreat news! Voice reporting with Google Assistant is now available in Waze.

Fix the voice commands when using Android Auto.
Waze used to have a lot of voice commands that kept one from physically interacting with the APP. Since Google bought Waze, this no longer works.
Fix this. It is dangerous for me to have to physically interact with the app while driving.

More UK Voices WITH STREET NAMES
Please give some more options of voices that include street names with differnt UK accents. There are so many variations of accent in the UK and having some more options that still include street names would be amazing! I used to love Kates voice but the new one is so much worse. Please create some more UK voice options!!

Simple Voice Commands To Respond to Alerts or Hazards
Hi. Love Waze, but this idea is one of three that would take it from good to great for me...
Problem: It is a dangerous practice to interact with screens and mobile devices while driving a vehicle. In response to safety concerns, laws are increasingly being put in place prohibiting interacting with screens (touching devices) while driving. Some simple voice commands would enable meaningful interaction with Waze in this situation.
Possible Solutions:
1) Only while an alert is displayed, enable very simple voice commands to improve the quality of alert (hazard warnings), for example 'Still there' or 'Gone'.
2) If/when…2 votes -

Minimalistic version of Voice navigation alerts? In the voice selection menu could be the simple "BEEP" (or any other, even in different variants by users selection). I mostly drive with all alerts off, I watch the screen heree and there. But driving on highway can easily couse the junction miss. Simple tick or beep sound will notice me, the upcomming route change.

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.…

Make navigation intuitive - have the navigation voice speak from the direction of the next turn.
Do you ever get confused with left and right?
My wife does, causing panic when she takes both hands off the wheel to for the "L" with both hands.
The solution, and also a darn cool feature, is to have the navigation voice "move towards" the junction you going to turn off on as you approach it, using stereo.
Problem solved - just follow the voice!
