    Your search - I drive for Uber & Lyft. I love & use waze all the time. However, I can't seem to turn off the voice while using waze. I would rather read the directions then be told multiple times on where to turn. How do I turn the voice off? - did not match any answers in Waze Help.

  2. Malaysian Accent for Malaysian Roads Please

    Why not use Malaysian voices for Waze in Malaysia? Right now the female voice option I choose for Malaysia pronounces Jalan Sultan Ismail as "Juh-lane Sull Tonne Izz Mail" and it annoys me.

  3. Warning voice for speed cameras permanently as a sound

    It would be great to hear the warning for speed cameras permanently as a sound. It's about the problem when the speed camera is not announced to me and I speed up just before the spot and then get flashed after all. Since I don't always look at my mobile phone while driving, the entry on the map doesn't always help me.

  5. Add Keke Palmer as a navigation voice option

    Actress, singer and personality Keke Palmer would be an excellent addition to the Waze platform.

  6. Navigate to a saved place using voice command in android with google assistant

    Navigate to a saved place using voice command in android with google assistant on Samsung S22 phone. For example, if I have a friend named Jim and enter his address as a saved place in waze and name it "Jim". Then shouldn't I be able to open waze and say: "Ok google, drive to Jim". When I do that now, google assistant responds with "Sorry I don't understand". Isn't that a pretty basic functionality? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks!

  9. I'm using Waze on an in-car Pumpkin Android stereo. It goes well, except it has a lot of trouble understanding my voice if the radio is play

    I'm using Waze on an in-car Pumpkin Android stereo. It goes well, except it has a lot of trouble understanding my voice if the radio is playing. Can a setting be added that will mute/reduce volume of other audio outputs while in listening mode? Activating Google voice input is an example of how it should be.
    Thanks.

  10. Add Soundcloud as one of the music player options to make a navigation voice and music pause a seamless driving experience

    It would be nice if Soundcloud was added to the music player list. There's so many other options on there but that's only only one that's missing that commonly used. It would be nice if it was added so the music music can pause and resume or lower for navigation directions.

  13. cumulate roundabouts

    when there is a series of roundabouts where you have a long straight route, the voice guidance quickly becomes annoying, as it repeats the same thing over and over again.

    take this example (i have recorded the route and waze behaviour) https://youtu.be/80v8nIPkqQ0

    you hear the voice guidance repeating itself all over again

    instead when i have a clearly straight route interrupted by roundabouts, please just tell me "roundabout, slow down". that's the most important thing a driver need to listen to when they approach a roundabout that does not change their course.

    stop repeating to me that i should take…

  16. Mandalorian

    Please, please, please let's have a Mandalorian voice on Waze, saying "this is the way" or "follow the way", with occasional gurgles from Grogu (baby Yoda). You know it makes sense...

  20. Arabic voice over - feminine form (Right now it talks to everybody as if they were only guys. There are also Female drivers)

    Any plan to add voice over in Arabic which talks to female drivers in feminine form? Right now the Arabic talks to everybody in masculine form. And maybe another version, non gender-based, using non conjugated verb, so good for all?
