Reviews
Could use some changes ok for now

Cant use navibridge while being a passenger. it often lags to connect to car but overall its useful
My smart phone (iPhone 12 ProMax)

I have no problem connecting to my head unit using map codes, and also connecting with HDMI and Bluetooth, but for a navigation, it won’t send over my map clots to the head unit for some odd reason. My NSZT-Y68T does not have a microphone connected and I feel that may be the case. Something needs to be done through the software and connecting via the lightning cable for direct transfers to my head unit. My head unit by the way is a Toyota Mark X Zio Besides and otherwise, this app is great and very accurate.
Useless

App doesn’t work while GPS thinks car is in motion. I’m the passenger and I can’t use it.
Needs instructions in English
LinusBGood
All the help is in Japanese. No English instructions. Don’t waste your time with this app. It might work, but without instructions in English, I will never know.
Need to improve or be removed.
Automobile driver
Poorly designed app and interface with car. As others have stated, it takes several steps to even connect with the car, and even that barely happens half of the times. Having a passenger input data for the driver is not possible; does not the legal mumbo-jumbo release the app designer and the vehicle company from any distraction “caused by using the app?” Please look at other car companies apps and the way they interface with the vehicle in terms of ease of use and convenience.
Works great

I have a 2016 Lexus RX 350 and it connected right away. Then I tried my iPad and it also worked! Yay! I just wished it had family sharing.
Can't wait for this to work in the U.S.!

Would be great to be able to tell Siri where I need directions to and have it automatically send the directions to the Garmin unit on my Kenwood DNX9990HD.
Works perfectly
open__skies
Works exactly as expected with my JVC KW-NT800HDT. Plug my iPhone in, fire up an app that supports NaviBridge, and it imports the data straight into my nav unit. Love it!
Works pretty well

It does what it says it's supposed to. It's nice that you can click search, then click the microphone on the keyboard next to the space bar for voice-to-text and then quickly upload the destination to your head unit. It would be nice if you could send all your bookmarks to the unit at once, instead of one at a time. Also, it's unfortunate the app crashes a LOT.
