  1. Voice Hazard Reporting

    This would be extremely helpful to be able to say what a hazard is instead of having to touch the screen while driving which causes you to look away from driving.

  3. Crosswalk Alert (Visual + Optional Voice)

    Marked pedestrian crosswalks are among the highest-risk points where vehicles and pedestrians interact, especially at night, during poor weather, or in areas with weak lighting.

    Introducing a Crosswalk Alert — a small on-screen icon with an optional short voice cue such as “Pedestrian crossing ahead” — would provide drivers with earlier situational awareness without affecting routing. Activated only on verified crosswalks, this alert would function similarly to existing permanent notifications such as speed bump warnings, hazard alerts, camera notifications, and other fixed safety cues.

    Such an alert would reduce reaction-time delays, improve driver readiness in limited-visibility areas, and help prevent…

  6. Change is voice directions

    First of all amazing app, used google map 4 times in london and got lost every time, first time used this app got me where I needed to every time.

    Like to add one small suggestion, I use this app with my phone in pocket and a earpiece so can’t see the screen.

    When it gives a navigation like “In 1000ft take the left” if there are other left turns before the one needed could it be changed to say something like “In 1000ft take the 3rd left” if there are 2 other left turns before the 1 needed, a…

  10. Activate voice input when report button is pushed in Android Auto/Carplay or phone app

    I would like the report button to start listening for voice prompts when pushed on the phone or android auto/carplay. I use Google Assistant for most reports and by the time I say “Ok Google” then wait for the prompt, then use voice reporting the pin is dropped significantly beyond what I was trying to report. Fumbling around with android auto to find the correct category is less safe and less direct than voice reporting and I usually end up hitting the wrong category.

  11. Added Mikasa voice (Japanese) + Attack on Titan icon

    Hello,

    I would like to suggest two additions to Waze:

    An official Japanese voice inspired by Mikasa Ackerman (Attack on Titan).

    An Attack on Titan car icon, for example, the Survey Corps symbol or a visual style inspired by the series.

    These additions would be greatly appreciated by fans and would make navigation more immersive.

    Thank you!

    Thank you for your suggestions!
    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.

  13. please better quality for customized voice

    The custom voice recording feature in Waze has very poor audio quality. The recordings sound compressed, noisy, and unclear, even though my microphone works fine in other apps. The problem is clearly within Waze, not my device.

    Please improve this feature by allowing higher bitrate recordings (at least 128 kbps) and giving users the option to upload pre-recorded audio files (e.g., MP3) instead of only using the in-app recorder. At its current quality, the feature is barely usable and does not meet user expectations.

  17. 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.

  19. The new voice algorithms aren't working very well.

    I allowed an update to Waze that included updated voice algorithms. Now the voices I've tried aren't working very well. For example: "In about (pause) in one mile turn right." The old voices didn't "stutter" like that. They are also having more trouble coordinating with Audible. I have Waze set to use my phone speakers for notifications and use my car stereo to listen to Audible. However, Waze notifications jump back and forth between the phone and stereo, and sometimes both the book and Waze talk simultaneously. I would like to have the old voices back.
