Finnish voice navigation
My family and friends would be interested in trying Waze, but they would need Finnish voice in addition to the Finnish UI. Their English isn't so well and that makes them use other navigation solutions that do support Finnish.

Add voice search while driving.
I want to be able to voice search for an address or a place while I'm driving. It is rather a inconvenience to have to put my vehicle in park in order to search where I want to go. Unless I'm doing it wrong.
38 votesGreat news! You can ask Google Assistant with Waze to navigate you to your destination. Install the latest app version to check it out. You may also check this link to know more on how to use Google Assistant with Waze.

Celebrity Voice: Ruby Rose
She's funny as hell and Waze could use more female voice selections. I'm currently using Colonel Sanders. He's kind of creepy.

Enable voice alert when approaching speed bumps
Hello Waze Team,
It would be so helpful for all Wazers to receive Voice alerts when approaching a speed bump so that we can prepare ourselves to slow down before approaching the speed bumps, as actually speed bumps has been added but it does not appear or notify you via voice alert that we are nearing a speed bump.
Grateful to look into adding voice alert when approaching speed bumps.
Thank you,
Kushal

Anime Voice Actor as option
I myself am a professional voice actor and would like to offer you my voice and record the "Anime-Voice-Records" professionally in a recording studio. My voice is known from Animes like Black Clover, DanMachi, My Hero Academia and so on. Accordingly, this would be a pleasure for anime fans.

Better 'ok Google' voice control
Since its simple enough to configure Google to auto-listen for 'ok Google' and its voice recognition is much faster than the three-finger touch version in Waze, could Waze implement a full set of commands for the 'ok Google' interface?
Examples:
* Okay Google, Navigate home with Waze (obvious)
* Okay Google, Send alert police with Waze (sends notification)
* Okay Google, Add stop, coffee with Waze (opens the add-stop interface with a search result for 'coffee')
* Okay Google, stop navigating with Waze (stop current navigation)Better touchless controls should be a major priority and the Android voice system is…

Ateez Voice Option
Would love to have one or more members of K-Pop group ATEEZ's voice as an option. I often use a Korean guide but also use English, and some members of the band study English so either language would be a great option!

Set voice command language equal to Waze interface language
Currently, Waze expects voice commands in the language of the country that I am in. It disregards that the phone language. (English in my case, therefore, waze interface is also in English). I am, however, in Portugal. Therefore Waze voice commands are expected in Portuguese.
Consider the new implementation on no roaming fees in Europe. When I drive to Spain, I am expected to speak Spanish. When I go to Croatia, I am expected to speak Croatian.
Solve this by setting the voice language to the language of the phone (or waze). Otherwise Waze voice commands are useless.

Felix (Stray Kids) as a voice option
Felix (member of the K-pop group Stray Kids) has a calming yet engaging voice that could fit well for navigation. English language navigation would have his Australian accent, and he (or another member) could potentially record Korean language navigation as well.

Bulgarian TTS voice
Waze offers TTS voices in many languages that can pronounce both street names and important alerts. This is extremely useful because alerts like average speed checks, speed bumps, and other warnings are spoken aloud rather than played as brief beeps that can be easy to overlook.
Unfortunately, there is no TTS voice available for Bulgarian. I use the UK voice 'Kate' as a workaround, but it cannot correctly pronounce Bulgarian street names written in Cyrillic. This limits both usability and safety for Bulgarian-speaking drivers.
Please add a Bulgarian TTS voice to ensure proper pronunciation of street names and audible alerts…

Randy Marsh (South Park) navigation voice.
Hi, if you could make a Randy Marsh from South Park navigation voice, it'll be one of the very few things you could do, to improve Waze.
Thank you for one of the best apps/navigation service I have ever seen :)47 votesThank you for your suggestion. We will add this voice request to our User Request wish-list.

Client Suggestion: Voice Recognition
I was driving from Las Vegas, NV to Fullerton, CA this past weekend. During the trip, I had a few hours to think of what client upgrades could be implemented into WAZE. Specifically, as the title of this thread suggests, I thought about Voice Recognition. This came about as I sent a report, but was unable to type a comment, thanks to texting and driving dangers.
Here is what I was thinking:
Voice Recognition would always be active while WAZE is active. Instead of pushing a button to activate Waze, what if a keyword was programmed to start the functionality.…233 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!
