osobear Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I am looking to buy a 2017 NX Turbo. I like the base model as I don't think the Nav is going to be useful (gets poor reviews like most car Nava) and I use the Waze app on my phone for any Navigation. I do want to make sure the car is equipped for options down the road where I could possibly display waze or the iPhone map on my screen. Does anyone know if I would have to have the model with the Nav screen so it could display that or does the base model screen run apps? Any insight on running apps on the car is appreciated.Also, do all models read texts out loud? And can you recite texts back?thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcrobb Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Current NX without NAV can use Scout GPS through the display. Works quite well, gives you updated maps, and the only "issue" is it locks your phone to the app which I don't think is a problem as it prevents texting and driving.

osobear Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 Thanks gcrobb! I have had my nx without Nav since May (I love it!) and find the hands free all very easy to use. I have found I use my iPhone map more often with voice directions piped thru Bluetooth. I like how my iPhone syncs to the car and I can use voice commands to send texts, set alarms, etc. with Siri. The only problem I recently started having is my phone sometimes won't disconnect after I press the phone disconnect button. I have to turn off Bluetooth from my phone and reconnect my phone which is a pain. Not sure if there is an update somewhere I can do? I was wondering if anyone has that problem with the iPhone, as well? Thx! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
