No you have to choose. Either on your phone or on the infotainment system. CarPlay/Android Auto mirrors the app on your phone onto the display. So if your using it on one it can't be displayed on the other because it's literally the same app...

I found out this weekend that while using Android Auto (maybe CarPlay as well) if you rotate the right radio knob it will zoom the map in and out.

Discovered this today.... if you press on the skinny pedal on the right, you can find Ford F-150's in the rear view mirror...   They just appear there... its like magic!

The new iOS 13 Car play Update no longer directly mirrors your phone. You can open what ever app you want on your phone.. text, open maps, etc all while waze is still on the infotainment.

I can do the same on Android. But what I'm saying is Waze either needs to be displayed on the infotainment system or your phone. It can't be on both doing different things because car play and Android Auto are pulling the app data from the app on your phone.

 

He wasn't asking if you could use different apps on your phone while using Waze. He was saying you can't use Waze on your phone while Waze if being displayed on the infotainment system and that's correct.

Not sure if this has been reported in this thread or not, but today I realized that my RST will turn on the headlamps for rainy driving when the wipers are activated to a certain level and consistency of use. 
 

This is not turning the usual headlights on, as when I’m plugged into CarPlay, the headlights are on, but my dash lights don’t dim. (This CarPlay doesn’t go to dark mode)

 

Pretty nice feature! This way I don’t have to constantly adjust my dash lights brighter when it’s raining.

I noticed also on my RST I can not dim or brighten my interior lighting when I press the + - on the light controls..

So, if I understand correctly. If you use WAZE as an app on your Apple phone, you could NOT display it on the infotainment screen while the car was in motion? 

It doesn’t talk to the car systems at all. Just displays it on the Center console screen.

Here is another good one that a lot of people probably don’t know.

 

Google assistant (and Alexa) can talk to GMC and you can remote start your truck with your voice. You have to audibly say your PIN which is a bit annoying but pretty slick overall.

Cant believe the love for acc, i wouldnt want it

How do you not like it? Got it on my wife’s van and drove a few other cars with it. Best thing ever for a road trip. It would make my morning commute so much better, I could just leave cruise on the whole way.

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      By TheRiver · Posted

      IMNTBHO;  the worst thing for the 6L80 is to be lugged down to low engine rpm while in high gear......AKA, to save fuel.   I rarely use D on my '16 with the 6L80 and use M mode to keep engine RPM above 1500 at the speed I'm driving, which is also benefiticial for the tranny because line pressure is kept up because the pump is actually turning a decent speed, and it's not always hunting to drop to the next gear to lower the engine RPM's.   Never above 30mph.............M3, maybe M4 if just driving thru a small NoDak town Never above 40mph............M4 Never above 50-55mph.............M5   This is way better for the tranny and the engine.........especially if AFM is still active.   262K miles on my OEM 6L80 as I type this.

      If they had nuclear material for "11 nukes" we'd have seized it.    Our military has been rendered either too weak/dumb to seize it, or they don't have it. Your pick,K-nut. Because right now we're fighting over who gets to toll oil tankers in the strait.    I hope you're man enough to admit you've been taken for a ride when it's finished.

      And you're obviously full of it too.  Apparently anything he does is perfect to you.  Don't you think this whole ordeal would have been better if he had maybe thought it all through first before bombing Iran at the request of his bffs in Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar?  They are the ones that had the biggest issue with Iran.  Thus they have been pouring the platitudes and giving gifts/bribes to him.  Had he thought about the consequences of what would happen to the Strait before starting anything, we wouldn't have this issue.  Now he is stuck with no way out of this mess.  But you have your head stuck way deep in his rabbit hole to see anything else.  So no, I don't have TDS.  I see what he is.  The derangement is yours from no oxygen in the rabbit hole.

      Bringing of the fact that every President has said the same thing. They can’t have nukes. I guess you missed that before epic fury they said they had enough product for 11 nukes and weren’t giving it up. That not political or polarizing. The opposition of that is and giving aid to the enemy. The mandate is decades old through many administrations. The difference is TDS.
