First let me say that even though I did a search I didn't see an answer for my situation on the forum.
I just purchased an LCertified 2015 ES 350. It doesn't have factory Nav, so I'd like to use an iPhone and Google Maps. I paired my iPone with the car's Bluetooth and it seems to be correct for calls. The problem is that either with Bluetooth or the lightning cable I don't get the turn-by-turn directions. In fact I don't hear anything. I've tried volume settings etc, all to no avail. It seems like there is something else I need to setup, but looking in the manual (which is really YUGE) nothing jumps out at me. What am I missing?
Second question is has anybody found something to hold a smartphone so the maps are easily viewed? I'm hoping someone found something other than a windshield suction cup mount which are illegal in some states.
Thanks for taking time to read and respond.

2015 ES 350 - Fuel Economy (Low?)

Yes, 17-18 seems very low. I have a 2015 ES as well and I'm getting around 23 -24 combined. I use the "ECO" meter as a guide and try to keep the bar as far to the left as possible. That does mean that I am accelerating slowly, which tends to irritate some of the lead foots but I'm getting the mileage I want and catch up to them at the next light.
