I did a short search and couldn't find anything so I was wondering if the garmin GPS apps will work with the Appradio at all? I know the new Kenwood HUs support this feature as long as you buy the "Vehilce Display Integration" app upgrade but I don't want to spend the $100 total to find out...

If you want to be able to control the app from the head unit you are going to need to make that purchase.

Ok but does it work? I was just saying I don't want to make a blind purchase and waste my money not knowing if it even works with AppRadio...I don't currently have the Garmin app so I would be dropping $50 for the app plus the $50 for the vehicle integration and I would be pissed if it didn't work

Have you any more info on this in app purchase ?Vehicle Display Integration

 

Also it is not mentioned as an app radio supported app, so best to contact garmin before a purchase

My suggestion as well, call Garmin. And the AppRadio was the first of its kind so I highly doubt it not to be supported.

Maybe check Youtube for demos as well.

Okay I talked to Garmin the Vehicle Display Intergration is only for certain kenwood headunits and no plans for Pioneer App radio (s)

total bummer.... how lame. and that Garmin charges for the feature for Motion X Drive doesnt. i really like the Garmin StreetPilot app but am so disappointed every time I drive that it wont use the AppRadio's external screen like many apps (Motion X, Netflix, etc...).

 

cant these people all get together and get with it??

Garmin is in bed with Pioneer's biggest competitor so this is no surprise.

Kenwood?  Too bad.  I was hoping to get that app on AppRadio too (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/garmin-n.-america/id435740864?ls=1&mt=8).  Now will Google Maps work fully w/the iPhone 5 and the Z150?  From what I've ready I believe so but there must be some limitations???

what a load of rubbish!!

 

how can it be listed on the AppRadio list of apps when its not even supported by the HU.

 

waste of £0.69p

likewise. Garmin USA is a great iOS nav app, but it's dimwitted that it doesn't offer external display support. not even as a paid upgrade... I suggest you contact them on their site and let them k ow why you're unhappy with the product and won't be purchasing it or recommending to others.

As Ive said previously, as long as Garmin is in bed with Pio's biggest competitor you wont see any App Mode support.

you said that previously? oh dear. hey guys? ignore my suggestion to contact Garmin...no sense in trying anything -- vblue has already said it won't work.

At least your learning.

riiiight.

 

I think your sarcasm detector is faulty. may want to get it looked at.

It was manufactured by Pioneer so you might be right.
