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 -

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!

voice regonition
It could be nice if the app had built it vocal recognition. Instead of looking your screen to report an incident, for exemple, you could say: "ok waze report an object on the road". It would be much safer and the accuracy of the incident on the road would be better because this method would be quicker that reporting on your phone while driving.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! Waze will soon support Google Assistance voice control. To know more about this feature, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram.

Please stop the keyboard from popping up after having done a voice search for an address or location
When using voice input to search for an address or location, this always results in the keyboard popping up, blocking the result(s) of the voice search I just did. Meaning, in order to see the result(s) to pick what I want, I always need to start by closing the keyboard.
Quite frustrating and would be so good if you could change this behavior!

Add voice notification when there is a mobile police camera in the opposite lane
I use Waze almost every day. I recently received a ticket and noticed that when there is a mobile police camera marked in the opposite lane (even on a two-way road), Waze does not send me a voice notification or warn me about it. Mobile police cameras measure speed in both directions. Can you make the app send a notification even if there is a mobile police camera marked in the opposite lane?

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.

Voices preview and favorites
I've noticed a few things that could be improved: 1. why not preview the voice directions before we choose one.
2. instead of scrolling through the voices all the time why not have a favorite option to add which ones you like and change between them easier.5 votes -

The new voice feature to report issues on the map, is complete garbage.
You can’t even turn it off! You disable the feature and the phone still forces the voice capture to activate but then it errors out… It does nothing but kick off the radio and delay the ability to report something. I think having the option of using voice is great, but I also would like to have the option of keeping it how it was… As a passenger in the car it’s extremely annoying every time you go to report something that you see on the road that there’s this loud sound that is activated and your radio gets forced…

"Voice waze"
It would be nice if you create an application or a device like mobeli that instruct the driver without him looking at his phone , I tried it with the normal waze running in the background and it was very helpful

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.

Start voice guidance from a selected point on the route
Many users already know the first part of their journey and only need guidance for the last section. It would be very useful to allow users to choose a point along the route where voice guidance should begin automatically.
Waze would still calculate the full route, monitor traffic and reroute if necessary, but it would remain silent until the selected point is reached.
This would be especially helpful for motorcycle riders, commuters and frequent drivers, improving both convenience and safety by avoiding the need to interact with the phone during the ride.

Eliminate 0.6 mile voice prompt for imperial users.
A 0.6 mile voice prompt was added, with the likely intention of providing a 1 KM prompt for metric users. However, for imperial users, this adds a seventh prompt, only 0.1 miles from the 1/2 mile prompt, which is the appropriate and normal progression for alerts. To provide appropriate notifications, the 0.6 mile prompt should be eliminated for imperial users, and the 1/2 mile prompt would be eliminated from metric users. Spitballing, the prompts should be as follows:
Imperial: 1 mile, 1/2 mile, 1/4 mile, 0.1 mile, at the location.
Metric: 2 KM, 1 KM, 0.5 KM, 0.25 KM, at…1 vote -
