Alright,  I have a 8100 HU and a LG V20 phone with USB Type-C.  I want to get WAZE to show up on my 8100 and be able to use the HU for menu touches, etc. 

 

What do I need in order to get this to work properly?  What kind of connections or cables? 

 

Thank you in advance!

Waze is coming to Android auto very very soon.  Supposed to be out Q1 of 2017.  But Android auto was just updated on february 22nd 2017 to allow for a multi-selection of navigation, similar to how you can select different music apps on android auto.  Right now, you can only select google maps, but i'm guessing it's up to waze now to have an update which allows you to select waze from that menu. 

 

Should be very shortly now, be patient. :mrgreen:  Waze has already tweeted that it's in Beta right now, so very close.
