DickThrust Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 The screen does not allow apps such as google maps (vision) to be used when drive is engaged. Is there away to overcome this? I know its a safety feature but the screen is pretty well useless apart from playing music from phone in its present form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HauptmannUK Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 You should have Android Auto or Apple CarPlay on your phone. And use a proper USB data cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwonitoy Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 And use a proper USB data cable. This is important. The Android Auto in my new 22 4 Runner wouldn't work, I was on the verge of buying a new phone and I went on a tech site and was recommended to use the original USB cord from my samsung phone. That's long gone so I bought a high end cable and then everything worked. If you use a cheap gas station cord it will charge the phone but won't work for the Android Auto.
