I'm not a big fan of the changes. The screen is much too busy now, and the Music app has way too much going on in the Now Playing screen, with links to the album and Up Next across the top. Looks like kind of a mess to me.

Android auto is still way better.  I have an iPhone, but bought a Moto G play for $100 just to keep in my car for offline maps.  I ended up liking android auto much better and stuck with it.

The CarPlay update is a nice improvement, thanks for posting, I do agree android auto is better, but ill take what ever ill get with CarPlay. I pray it would work with google maps but I know apple won't budge on that.

May I inject a stupid question?
I have the 8200nex.  I was finally able to get the AVICSYNC app on an older iPod running iOS 9.x to update the Maps.  Well, I think it did.

So I downloaded the maps, etc. to the iPod.

I ran the sync (took me all day and numerous restarts) and it finally "finished".
Now, does that mean I can/should delete it from the iPod and iPhone, or leave it on there too?

Are Maps on the 8200 really updated?  This process really is awful.

Thanks!
