Cantonese
Hi, I am a Cantonese user and I was wondering if it might be possible to introduce more Cantonese voice options for navigation.
I really enjoy using the app, but listening to the same Cantonese voice repeatedly can feel a little monotonous at times. Having more voice variety would be greatly appreciated.
I understand that Cantonese users may account for less than 1% of all users, but I still hope more options can be considered in the future.
Thank you very much.

F1 (Formula 1) Collaboration
Would love to see a collaboration with F1 (Formula 1). Since Google already sponsors the McLaren F1 team, it seems like an obvious match. McLaren livery on a F1 vehicle icon and Lando Norris providing voice navigation.
Ideally, all F1 teams would be represented. All teams liveries for vehicle icons and other drivers (or commentator David Croft) for voice navigation would be great!

General Voice Improvements, etc.
The voices used by Waze are no longer up to the standards established by Siri and even Google (ironically). It is difficult, if not impossible to correct mispronunciations in the iPhone app, and the voices are not as natural sounding as Siri has become. Surely this can be corrected. TTS is also not as good as it could be, and putting in custom pronunciations should be enabled. Additionally, the whole UI has gotten a little long in the tooth. It hasn't changed much at all over the years, and it could use some refreshing. Thank you for listening.

Auto-pause voice-nav-alert prompts based on GPS speed
While temporarily stopped for fuel, groceries, restroom breaks, it's annoying to hear turn left at State Road 19 navigation prompts from my back pocket. Can you automatically silence voice prompts based on gps speed? Of course this would need to be a user preference config. I saw a manual pause feature request, but I imagine drivers would get annoyed if they forget to re-enable it. The tech exists to auto-pause / auto-resume.

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.

I’d love to see enhancements in Waze around routing options, voice directions, and app responsiveness. Sometimes routes don’t account.
I’d love to see enhancements in Waze around routing options, voice directions, and app responsiveness. Sometimes routes don’t account for closed/restricted roads or HOV/toll preferences correctly, voice directions are inconsistent, and certain app features or settings fail to respond. Even after basic troubleshooting (restart app/device, check permissions), the issues persist. Improvements in these areas would make Waze more reliable and user-friendly.

Tabitha Brown
PLEASE get Tabitha Brown to voice turn by turn directions. Her voice is beyond calming, reassuring, and peaceful. She’s an actress so it wouldn’t be difficult to find her. She’s on IG and TikTok @iamtabithabrown. You can find her on Facebook under her name. THIS WOULD BRING WOULD RESULT IN THOUSANDS, IF NOT, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of downloads.
P.S. if you need help finding things the culture would appreciate and get behind, bring me on board. I gave you Tabitha for free.

Waze carpool to use its own time settings
When trying to create a carpool ride, the android app seem to pull time information from the device itself which creates issues when the time settings do not match the time zone. What we select is not in local time and also not in the entered timezone. It is a mess. Why not the app use its own time settings internally. I am also using scoop app and it works without any of these timing issues. Due to this I could not create carpool ride requests in Waze as it is showing some other time rather than local time that…

Voice option
Hello dear one. I normally use waze software in Tehran Iran. In language selection for US were 5 options: The 1st. one e.v. Jane( I am not sure with the exact ), Amy, Boy Bond, Nathan, and Randy. Newly the first one option is omitted. The advantage of the omitted one was the expression of every rout like name of street, highway, alley, and etc. With this option never could make mistake in exact rout driving. Now you have omitted this advantage. I am requesting to add this option if possible.

Voice detection for non english/german destinations is UNUSABLE in the middle-EU
Voice detection - especially when entering new destination is UNUSABLE for non english addresses, so for most of the EU, but especially in non german countries.
Allow to use Gemini / chatGPT or other AI tool for VOICE detection! It's a must!
Or at least allow the passenger to enter the address from the touchscreen!1 vote -
