Maps Audio

I'm using Google Maps on AA and the navigation audio is playing through Bluetooth.

There is always an option on the app, off of AA that you can uncheck that and I did. But it's still playing over Bluetooth. Anyone having the same thing happening?

That's how it goes. Data over cable, audio over BT.

Not really. There are two BT profiles - phone and media. When I use AA the phone connects with BT but the media doesn't. Instead media is routed through the USB.

AA uses this setup for me...

BT - Phone and Maps audio

USB - Music audio

I have both iOS and Android. CarPlay only uses BT over phone calls. The rest is sent through USB.

Hoping for an update so that we can change that too like the actual app on the Android phone.

I think in my Hyundai, media and navigation are routed through usb and phone is routed through Bluetooth. I say that because my media notification volumes are tied to the same channel, but phone volume is separate.

I'd love maps volume to route over Bluetooth (I even have that option checked in settings) , but Hyundai said it's not programmed to.
