    Normally use apple car play,. But just seen Waze is out on android auto so maybe worth switching, so this seems more appealing.

    Just in time with the note 8 coming out soon(if it doesn't burn the car down!)

    Waze joins Google Maps on Android Auto

    I was quite keen on it but now quite happy to use both Waze on the iPhone with Audi Nav on VC and HUD. Leaves the MMI screen free for whatever else i want to do.

    I have the iPhone mounted in a holder that fits in one of the cup holders. Noticed a few times that alerts from Waze cut in over the audio.

    Too much investment in Apple now to change. At least until the kids turn 16

    If people are able to get this to work I may buy an older used android and connect via a wifi hotspot off my iPhone.

    As I understand it Waze will only work with Android Auto when the phone is connected to the car's AMI with a USB lead, using the Audi Smart Phone Interface. Android Auto just running on a phone alone won't allow Waze to be selected, only Google maps. Unlike the music playback were, on mine, I get a choice of Google Play Music or Spotify without connecting to the car. I still need to get Audi Smartphone Interface enabled on my A7 (£280 though)

    I was looking on the car. It's there today so maybe android auto needed an update. A good alternative at least
