Voice navigation starts route straight away
When on a route I sometimes need to say 'take me to the nearest gas station' when I need to fill up and do not know the nearest but want to add a stop.
However it then prompts me to click on a particular option, which is illegal when driving. You should implement 'select XXX' feature or just start a diversion to the nearest so I don't have to pull over to touch the screen.
Even when saying 'Take me to BP insert town' it still has to do a search and you have to click - it won't…

kate
Please, please, please, someone at Waze sort out the English UK Kate voice issue. Forget the new version, sounds clunky,synthetic and unnatural, just re-instate as before. It's downright distracting now while driving, will loook for an alternative app if this continues.

Android Auto default on Go button when POI selected
I have a car with touchpad/buttons to select with no touchscreen.
When I search for a point of interest (usually through voice commands) and select from the list, it displays information about the poi, but I need to move the cursor all the way to the Go button to start the trip. This is a hassle without a touchscreen.
Can this be defaulted to the Go button to make the selection quicker and safer?
Alternatively, can we start the trip ("Go") with a voice command?

Add warning about "Off-road/Not maintained" segments
Following warnings can be used:
* voice warning - on navigating to new POI, on entering "Off-road/Not maintained" segments
* show such segments as bars with special color on roure chart similar to bars with traffic jams
* highlight such segments with special color on map. With current implementation user is able to find such segments with map color scheme for editors. After navigating to POI it is covered with bold line of proposed route so colors are not visible15 votes -
Security camera voice alert irrespective of type of camera ahead
The app should notify irrespective of being within the limit because the speed reflecting on the app is 3km lesser than the real at all the given times.
Also, the app doesn't even make a distinctive alert sound when there's a camera ahead.I request you to please integrate the verbal notification for a security camera irrespective of the type of camera installed and irrespective of whether the vehicle is under the speed limit coz at a lot of times due to many reasons like conversing while driving, thinking, managing kids etc. and it skips out of the mind.

Adding Voice Navigation Option: Torah Trope
I am an avid Waze user and Torah reader (בעל קריאה). I would love to add a navigation option using my knowledge of Torah trope. I think it would be a lot of fun :).

motorcycle wazers
Many wazers ride motorcycles. Myself included. One problem I run in to is that sometimes I don't know if waze is still running since it can be turned off in pocket accidently and so on. It would be cool if there was a motorcycle setting that a person could activate that would tell the waze voice to check in with the rider by saying that they are still on the proper heading.
12 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already has Motorcycle Mode included in the app. To change your vehicle type, tap Settings > Car Details > Vehicle type.

Please add a signal of some kind to alert us that you will be speaking a direction..I miss the directions if I am listening to music.
Before voice directions, please insert sound of some kind to alert us that the voice direction is coming so I can turn down the radio or the music.
By the time I turn down the music, I've missed the voice directions.Or, is there a way to repeat the voice direction--

Make Jordan Peterson available as a Navigational Voice
Simply make Jordan B Peterson available. Would be amazing to have things such as "Turn Left... Roughly Speaking" or "Keep Right. Life is Suffering". That would make my ride way more funnier.

My feedback
The new voice on the App. Sounds like an old woman woken up from sleep. What happened to the former, sharp smart voice? However, I must add that while Waze is getting some addresses wrong (like my own residence) the app now takes you to the specific location instead of formerly when it would say "you have arrived at your destination" while you are still like 50 meters away from there.

Geotagged event triggers
Allow the user to define an event such as playing one of your own sounds, display one of your own photos or play a music track at or near specific places. Example uses - get onto a fast stretch of road and your music changes, and changes back when you get into town again. Get a mile from a toll booth and a note appears telling you how much money to have ready. Drive near a grocer and your recording says "don't forget to get the eggs". Go past a tourist attraction and a recording tells you about it. You…

Wouldn't it be great to be able to exclude a freeway or particular road from your planned route?
I already summed it up in the title, you kids are the pros.. But I would love to have more options for routes and options to avoid a freeway or major thoroughfare.
Oh and just an irrelevant side note; that American woman's navigation voice, ug I can't listen to it. She sounds like your mean teacher from middle school- but the American guy is great.
