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

Voice reply
We can report things like crashes or stopped vehicles but we can't reply to the "still there?" prompt. Even having the ability to confirm with voice after we had passed whatever it was would be nice

Voice
When Waze is not in use but is apparently still tracking my route in the background, it calls out the upcoming hazards even though I don't have the app in use. I have to set it to no sounds while I'm driving to get it to be quiet. Can there be a setting that turns off the voice when the app is clearly not in use?

As you may know, Waze already supports this feature.Stay tuned for more feature updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

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.

Add Hal from 2001 Space Odyssey voice
Add Hal's voice to Waze as an option.
The important part is it must call everyone "Dave". For example, if you take a wrong turn you hear "Where are you going Dave?"

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.

LOST OF RECORDING VOICE
I lost the voce recording of my son who made 7 years ago. Waze carried out an update, I shared the voice with another person so as not to lose it, the other person received the voice, put it to work and when I deleted it from my cell phone to try to make it work again on my device it no longer appeared. Even with this sharing link I lost it. An irreparable loss as we have been using this recording all the time for seven years.
My suggestion is that you store the voice in the account. Make…

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…
