In countries with unhealthy obsession with roundabouts, navigation talks CONSTANTLY repeating the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over ... you get the idea.
It's not just annoying, it's down-right dangerous. It steals the driver's focus and makes them progressively more angry. Especially when it constantly interrupts music, radio, audiobooks or whatever more interesting is playing.
Drivers are not stupid, they don't need to hear about roundabouts three times in a row every few hundred meters. Get rid of all the announcements as they are and have just one at about 3-6 seconds before the roundabout that doesn't include the distance to the roundabout.
Also, many voices have a stupidly long pauses in the announcements: "In four hundred meters...(2 sec pause)..at the roundabout... (3 seconds pause) .... take the Nth exit". The pauses probably take more time than the rest of the whole announcement.
