My husband mentioned the Google maps app voice isn't audible on his Samsung 7 phone. As I googled, it mentioned something about going into settings, scroll to bottom and click on system, but I don't see system anything. I cannot get the automated voice to play in my Samsung s9 plus phone either. Something in the app must have changed. But, while driving, we need to hear the audible directions.
Ah, that is a setting in maps. Do you connect to your car via bluetooth? If so, you need to have the car radio on media to hear the commands through the car speakers. If you want the sound to come through your phone speaker follow the steps below:
go to the maps app
tap your avatar at the right end of the search box
tap the gear icon for settings
scroll down to Navigation settings
toggle the option to "Play voice over bluetooth
You will also notice some other voice options in there that may be of interest.
