You can use Campendium for navigation on your in-car display with Android Auto. This feature is only available to Campendium PRO members.
If you have the Campendium app on your mobile device and you connect it to an Android Auto enabled vehicle you should see the Campendium icon! Scroll through all of your Android Auto icon options if you don't see it right away.
Starting Navigation from the Campendium App
You can start your an Android Auto navigation session directly from the Campendium app or from the screen in your vehicle.
To learn more about launching navigation from a trip you've built on Campendium, see our guide here: RV-Safe Navigation
If your mobile device is currently connected to Android Auto and you begin navigating to a waypoint on your mobile device, you should see that navigation session on your vehicle's screen.
When you initiate navigation from the app on your mobile device you will have the chance to apply routing preferences including Avoidances and RV Safety and choose an alternate route if possible.
Starting Navigation from the CarPlay Screen
If you open Campendium on Android Auto without a navigation session active, you'll see a map with an indicator representing your vehicle that follows it as it moves.
To begin a navigation session from your car's screen, tap Search to add an address, search for a stop by name, or choose a stop from your Favorites list, Nearby to see nearby places, or Trips to start navigating to a stop on a trip you've built. These same options can also be used to add stops to an active navigation session. You can add up to 25 stops to an active navigation session.
Enable or Mute Voice Directions
You can mute or unmute voice directions on the Android Auto screen. Just tap Mute in the lower right corner of the screen.
If your Android Auto screen is unmuted, but you're still not hearing voice directions, make sure the volume in your Campendium app on your mobile device it turned up!
Update Routing Preferences
You can update basic routing preferences, like avoiding tolls, avoiding highways, or avoiding dirt roads right from your Android Auto screen. Just tap the gear icon in the upper right of the screen.
RV Safety settings must be applied from the Campendium app, so if you need the route to consider your height, weight, and propane status - launch the trip from your app! More information on how to do this here: RV-Safe Navigation
