Hello,

Since the last update of Android Auto, the alerts (and only the alerts) in Waze are in English. On my mobile (connected via cable), Waze is in French and in my car, the language is also in French.

Thank you for your help.

    Hello,

    After performing the operation to clear the cache from my mobile, I still have the English voice with Android Auto.

    I don't know what to do anymore.

    It's frustrating how things that work well stop functioning after an update.

    Re-hello and thank you for your message.

    Yes, I have checked my settings several times but French is still the only language that appears.

    And the "written" notifications on the screen in my car are indeed in French. It's just the voice that has inexplicably switched to English... (and it has nothing to do with Vanessa :-( )
    It's exhausting and incomprehensible.

    Best regards.

    Good evening,

    if this is regarding audio alerts, please try resetting the TTS (Text-To-Speech) cache. To do this, enter cc@tts in the search bar. Restart the application and check, if necessary, that the voices are set to French with Vanessa.

    Best regards.

      Good evening,

      First of all, thank you for your help.

      Sorry if I seem a bit "clueless" with my question.... Is it when I launch Waze in my vehicle that I enter the code in the search area?

      Thank you!

      Best regards

        Hello,

        You don't need to start it in the car.

        Best regards.

    Hello,

    did you still check in the Waze settings, voice and sound, that the applied voice is indeed a French voice like Vanessa?

    Best regards.

    Hello,

    A huge thank you!

    This setting had changed without my knowledge... so I switched back to French - Vanessa and, of course, everything is working perfectly again.

    Have a great Sunday and a thousand thanks.

    Best regards.
