Bad, even when it works
This app works sporadically at best. Moving maps stopped working and I see is not compatible with 11.2. Car tells me to plug in via USB, but app grays itself out when I plug in.
If I use via Bluetooth I must have the Scout app running AND on screen at all times to work. What other app requires that? I was trying to navigate, but the app said no routes available. Which meant that I had to unlock my phone and open the app while driving. It defeats the point of having it built in to the head unit.
Overall, the app is really poorly executed. Telenav should take some clues from CarPlay or Android Auto to see what effective execution looks like. Even volume management when listening to music is poorly executed.
I have a brand new 2018 Camry with all the bells and whistles, yet I have had to mount my phone to a windshield bracket and run google maps because I can’t rely on this app to work properly and not kill my battery.
