    Yes, please Waze, bring back the original Thomas and Kate (my personal preference) UK voices.

    Unlike the originals, which were calm, friendly, polite and generally very well pronounced, the replacements are curt, quite aggressive, stress inducing and littered with mispronunciations.

    Having been a long time Waze user (10 years plus) and advocate, I’m afraid I’m now using Google or Apple Maps for most of my journeys. Such is my dislike of the new, “improved” Kate and Thomas voices.

    A classic case of “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it!”

    Please at least allow us the option of downgrading back to the originals?
