HS Hybrid+
We have a HS HYBRID+ only 2 months old.
When we use apple maps, google maps and Waze maps and connect to our phones (not at the same time of course) via Apple Play or Android Auto the vocal maps directions seem to either lag or are completly wrong. Sometimes it will say "turn left" or "turn right" all within the same breath !! Anyone else having the same issues and any ideas on a fix? Both of our phones are uptodate with their software. It seems like an GPS accuracy issue with where the car is which is weird as if we just use our phones without connecting them to the car there are no issues with directions.

Cheers
 
Yes I've recently had this, but I had ABRP going as well, I put it down to a conflict between the two.
It could also be where the phone is, on it's little shelf, maybe sat reception is very dodgy.
 
I didn't know until a couple of years ago that when you connect your phone it uses the cars GPS antenna, so it doesn't matter where it is in the car.
I did suspect that but you would think if you were using google maps on your phone and connecting via Android Auto it would simply use the phone's GPS. If it is using the car's GPS that would explain things. So I guess the question is how to solve this? :(
