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.

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.

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.

Matt Berry Voice Navigation
Matt Berry Voice Navigation
Esteemed actor, musician, performer, and artist, Matt Berry, would make a stupendous addition to the Waze program and community. With a confident, sultry, and seductive presence, Matt Berry would guide thousands of drivers to their destinations in the comfort of his soothing, tenor voice.

Bring back DJ Khaled Voice
Please bring back DJ Khaled voice back to Waze! I enjoyed it!
3 votesThank 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. -

Google Assistant Voice Navigation Problem
Dear Waze Team.
Since yesterday (seems like after Google Assistant update) I cannot use voice commands via Google Assistant in Waze anymore.
This cause a problem while driving as it is dangerous to try and add potholes etc. manually while driving.
When having Waze open and I want to navigate with commands through Google Assistant - just nothing happen or Google Maps open.
There is NO Google Assistant option to choose in my Waze app in Waze > Settings > Voice & Sounds?
PLEASE ADVISE OR HELP.
Thank you so kindly.

English (uk) voice has changed for the worst
Hi- I am a big fan of WAZE. I use it everyday and convert everyone over to it, as well. There is an issue in having with the updated "voices".
The new ENGLISH (UK) does not say the street names as it used to do. This is a problem because now I have to continually take my eyes off road and read the street names on phone. Tonight I MISSED MY MERGE because I was looking down at phone and couldn't merge to the left in time.
The previous ENGLISH (uk) voice would say mileage, direction of turn or merge…

The Catalan voice is not good enough
It is great to have Catalan as an option in the iPhone client (thanks!!) but the voice used is not good, as it mispronounces some sounds. The voice has a strong Spanish accent.
