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.

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…

Star trek idea, could you make an enterprise with the voice of picard or captain archer.
So it would be the nx01 or Enterprise a,b,c or D, with the voice commentary relating to good quirky notes and goings on and police presence. You could even push with Klingon bird of prey and Klingon actor to be aggressive when driving. Oh and when the journey starts the theme tune comes on from the next generation 😎

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.

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 -

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.

Thank you for your suggestion!
As you probably know, some of the voices we feature are promotional, meaning they are only available for a limited time.
We offer special voices for holidays, events, and just for fun.
You can use these for the length of the promotion. When the promotion ends, your voice will reset to the default and the voice will no longer appear in the Sound menu.We hope that you enjoyed the voice while it was available and can’t wait to share more exciting voices to come!
Want to try another voice?
Tap Menu and tap the Settings wheel.
Tap Voice & sound.
Tap Voice Language and select the voice you’d like to use. -

Voice notification for abrupt stop of wazer in front of you
Often you can't tell if the car in front is stopping or just slowing down, so as we have speedometer, waze could notify wazers behind that it's car speed got from say 100km/h to 20km/h rapidly. This way wazers behind have more caution and can start to brake earlier. Should be optional voice notification and only valid for all wazers 100/300 meters behind (affected by your car's speed)
