Don't u just love predictive text. Should have read sygic navigation

Has anyone tried this app. Interested in how it performs and if it's better than the cars nav

 

I used it for the 7 days, was not worth my money or time.

 

Could it possibly be worse than the one that comes in the car? I'd rather go buy a road atlas than use that piece of junk. It's failed every single time I've tried to use it.

 

I don't use inControl anymore at all, too many crashes and nothing useful as far as apps.

 

There are a few new Apps available for InControl, One of which is Magellan Maps, I just downloaded it so I will let you guys know how it goes.

 

That's interesting, I don't see it in mine.

 

Open the InControl app on your phone and you should see a list of all the new apps in the top row.

Other new apps include Tile, Accuweather, ParkWhiz and of course, Magellan.

 

Do you have an iPhone, I have; Tile, ParkWhiz and iHeartRadio on Samsung, no Magellan.

 

I didn't think inControl was compatible with any platform other than iPhone. What others work?

 

Magellan is there for me too...

 

It's available for Android too, search google play.

 

FYI, a screenshot of my iPhone 6s




IPhone InControl with Magellan installed

 

It was not yet available for Android when I got my car last summer.

 

I think I used inControl for about a week before I got tired of the crashes... and I still remember where I park my car so really, nothing usable there anyway. If the music player would work and recognize playlists and/or genres, I might try it again.... But most of the time I have to connect and disconnect my phone couple times before it even starts working....

 

Its the most disappointing feature of the car. Pretty useless!!

 

Truth is, all car apps on all systems I've seen thus far are disappointing, but I haven't seen Apple CarPlay. Nonetheless, it seems to me to be way more user-friendly to use the phone itself, especially if you have it mounted on a mag-mount in line-of-sight.

 

You'll most likely be disappointed by carplay as well. My experience with it was enough to quell my interest in upgrading my 2013 Volt to a 2016. Hard crashes that often freeze out other functions, not just audio or maps but climate as well.

 

Never had a crash on mine. Only time it's ever failed me was when I had Bluetooth locked out on the iPhone: user error.

 

Yeah, I think it was originally made for iPhone, and quickly ported to Android. I have hard time just to get it turn on seamlessly, and if I want to use something in my phone, Waze or Escort Live for example, inControl needs to exit and won't turn back on without all kinds of error messages.
