Different sounds for left and right turns

The turn-by-turn navigation beep happens very frequently when riding in a city. Yet it's always the same sound, no matter the situation. It's a high-noise, low-signal notification, so I've turned it off :(

I suggest having at least 4 different navigation sounds:

- left turn ahead

- right turn ahead

- rerouting (long sound to indicate something is wrong)

- any other navigation event (something very short, so that it's not annoying)

Alternatively, could you please expose the navigation hints as extension events? I'd be happy to write an extension that implements this sound scheme.

  Hello, thank you for your feedback. This is definitely something we can look at improving natively in the future. 

  Navigation events are officially available as of the release on January 9 2025. Please let us know if there is any additional functionality you want in the future.

  Another feature that would be great is when it alerts you of a turn at 200m once you are approaching to turn, it beeps again with another sound to alert you that it is in that turn where you should turn.Sometimes on a route when we are going to turn we find another same path near the path we want to take and it can confuse us, that is why I suggest that the GPS warns us with another sound while we are Being closer to the path to take
