Improve ways to report your own hazard in your vehicle
, slow moving vehicle option for yourself when you are having your own hazard. We had a problem on the New Jersey Turnpike where are trailer that our boat was sitting on was breaking so we had to drive 10 to 15 miles an hour to get safely to the next exit. I wanted to post slow moving vehicle as a hazard but there was no option. So I kept posting Hazard on the road vehicle on the road and then I typed in slow-moving vehicle. And I kept doing that every mile or so then Waze wanted to flag…

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.

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

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.

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!

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.)

Voice Nav: At the stop sign, turn left. At the stop light, turn right.
I was riding with a friend yesterday and the app he was using gave him voice instructions like "At the stop light, turn left" and "At the stop sign, turn right". This was way more user friendly and useful than using distances such as "In 300 feet, turn right".
Waze should add this functionality to its app as it's sometimes confusing which road to turn on when roads are close to each other and knowing that it's at a stop sig or light makes it very easy to figure out.

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!!

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.

Voice alerts only for red light cameras and railroad crossings
Voice alerts only for railroad crossings and red light cameras. It is very annoying to have to hit the close button in order to see the map every time you hit a railroad crossing or red light camera. Especially now that red light cameras are popping up constantly. Having to hit the button is distracting.

Recommend a voice option with just 1 hazard button. Hit 1 button, WAZE asks what the hazard is, you say “pothole” etc
Have the option in settings to do voice notifications. Then there will be just one button to hit on the screen. Waze asks what the hazard is and we say, “pothole”, “object on road”, ‘Police” etc. This will make for a much safer journey.
