Change the voice prompt for reaching the waypoint from "You have reached your destination" to "You have reached your waypoint"
Please consider changing the voice prompt for reaching the waypoint from "You have reached your destination" to "You have reached your waypoint".

Context-Aware Voice Instructions
To improve the clarity and relevance of voice instructions in Waze, I propose integrating advanced contextual awareness into the navigation system. This feature would include:
Detailed Contextual Cues
…1. Landmark-Based Instructions: • Incorporate landmarks and notable points of interest into navigation prompts. For example, “Once you go past the Costa Coffee on your right, prepare to turn right” or “After you pass the second set of traffic lights, switch to the left lane and prepare for a left turn.” 2. Milestone Guidance: • Provide instructions based on specific milestones in the journey. For instance, “Continue straight until you reach the1 vote -
Why would you program The voice to say"RIGHT?" when not referring to directions? Is it asking for my permission?
Why would you program The voice to say"RIGHT?" When NOT referring to directions? Are you asking my permission? Awful trend anyway you're confusing your product and making the trend even worse

Request to Improve Malay‑Road‑Name Pronunciation in English Voice Guidance
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest an improvement to Waze’s voice navigation for users in Malaysia:
Currently, many Malaysian road names (e.g., “Jalan Tun Razak”, “Lingkaran Syed Putra”, “LEKAS”) are often mispronounced when using the English‑language voice, even though the spelling is correct. This can be confusing when driving because the spoken name does not match the local way people say it.
I would like to request that Waze:
1. Improve the English‑voice TTS engine to better handle common Malay‑language road‑name patterns (Jalan, Lebuhraya, Persiaran, etc.), so they sound closer to how Malaysians actually say them.
2. Optionally…1 vote -
Normal waze voice but putting the word “the” in front of highway numbers because that’s how people from California talk
A normal, female or male voice that provides normal directions but uses “the” in front of highway name. i.e. take “the” 57 to “the” 101. This is how Californians call highways and it’s really funny to hear the contrast between natives and people that aren’t from California.

Report Blocked Lane by Voice
It would be an amazing addition to be able to say "Hey Google, Report Left/Center/Right Lane Blocked" rather than needing to use the on-screen controls as it poses a safety hazard.
I feel as if that would entice users to use the feature more; it's a very beneficial tool to have, allowing you to prepare for the lane chance before it's too late.
That may also help with traffic congestion when everyone is trying to merge into a single lane on interstates.4 votes -
Hello! I honestly think it would be amazing to have voice actor (and actual actor) Kevin Michael Richardson as one of the Waze voices.
Just another amazing voice to add to the ever growing Waze repertoire! Check out his credentials to see where this is all coming from.

An interactive voice of a cat that looks like a dog
Hello, greetings from Costa Rica.
My suggestion is related to the voice of the cat in the application in Spanish...
The voice that is used and what the cat says is not related to the real behavior of the cat with respect to its owner, when listening to the cat it looks more like a dog, this is because what the cat says is said with great affection , gently and almost with the feeling of being more than happy, as literally a dog would.
A real cat would not make the instructions with that smoothness, it would even be…
