Supportive Encouraging Voice for When You're Having a Rough Day or Just Because
I personally loved when "Mr. T."'s (kind of hard/abusive) voice was a choice. But a friend just mentioned how she would really love having a voice that was more supportive -- saying things like "don't worry, it's OK... you'll make it" (even if you take a wrong turn, for example). I thought a lot of people might appreciate that! For every day or maybe even for a particularly rough day.

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.

please give us back the voice of BOYFRIEND in french ! why did you suppress it ????!!! we miss him since the update !
Caroline2 votesThank you for your suggestion!
As you probably know, some of the voices we feature are promotional so they are only available for a limited time.
You can use these for the length of the promotion.
We currently don’t offer a paid version of app voices.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!

Voice Equalities Across Genders and Countries
Right now, different voices and languages have different hidden features - like calling out segment length, different distances, street names, lane separation and so on. There's no reason for this discrimination. You should have all of the features available on all of the voices and have them toggle able.
So, for example, all male voices should have the option to speak Street Names. Also, ALL voices should count more Distances. It's ridiculous that a turn within 100m will be called out as 400m ahead, it's confusing and could cause a ruckus on the road.

FNAF Security Breach Sun and Moon voices by Kellen Goff
I would love to have the enthusiastic voice of Sun and the mellower croon of Moon to guide me as I travel! Sun's excitement to get you where you need to go on your way to a party or some other event would be so fun and Moon's calmer in control voice and charming laugh would be lovely when you're not feeling high energy.

Invader Zim and Gir voice overs/ wazer icons
Would love to have Invader Zim and Gir options for voice overs as well as some wazer icons to match. I have a mighty need to receive orders screamed at from my evil alien overlord and be sung the doom song by my car. If the welcome started with Zim’s maniacal laughter or Gir sing the doom song, my life would be complete. 😂

Put back voice notification of alerts/reports instead of "ding then read"
Put Back the Voice Notification to issues/reports/etc While Driving. The current "loud ding and then read the screen" is a safety hazard. It requires the driver to take vision away from the road and read their phone. This also conflicts with state laws that prohibit use of devices that distract driver attention away from the road. WAZE was wonderful with voice notification/explanation. Our safety needs you to put back this function. Frankly, I can't use Waze until it is back.

Australian TTS voice Kylie is only available while I'm in Australia - why region-lock voices?
We live in a world where people aren't restricted by country borders, and so it's always frustrating when you're faced with a feature or an app on your phone that's not available simply because of where in the world you might currently be.
I'm Australian and have really embraced using Waze over Google Maps over the years. One of the reasons this has been so easy is because of Kylie, the TTS voice I have selected. However, when I go to another country Kylie suddenly stops being available and Waze sounds British or American with no option to change it…

Voice warnings about several hazards on the road
Waze has been warning about the next turn during a trip for a long time and this is great. However, there are not only maneuvers on the roads but also different hazards. For example: there is a speed control camera ahead, and an accident happened 50 meters before it. Waze will only warn about one event. This is bad. I suggest voicing such events in order, like turns "Accident ahead, then camera." and other events similarly.

Voice Activation
Can be used to confim/add road hazards and traffic situations. Example: hey siri, car stopped on shoulder or hey siri, confirm road stopped and it will add it. A app called Yazio does something similar where you can add 12 oz of water to your daily intake (calorie counter app)
