Default Denso App

I just found out today there is a Denso app on iOS that can push destinations to the nav system in our cars over bluetooth/hardwire. Its called NaviBridge. Nice for having a passenger get a needed destination.

Seems pretty cool and functional. Anyone else used this?

So it sends the gps direct to the factory navi system or does it just speak the directions over the blue tooth?

It actually pushes the address to the factory gps. You accpet and its just like you input it. Pretty cool.

I downloaded it, it doesn't seem to link up with the nav in my 2015. What year is yours and what process did you go through to pair it?

I have a 2016. I just plugged my phone into my car, the car notified me that there were apps available, downloaded, and it worked. I haven't tried bluetooth yet. I will shortly.

I just confirmed mine works over bluetooth as well. However, the Nav locks me out from using it while moving... Kind of defeats the purpose. Guess I will continue to use Destination Assist. ;-)
