Hi,

 

My VRS-owning son suggests that I stop using my Garmin GPS and connect my iPhone8 by cable into the media port in my lowly ‘16 Yeti so that I can use the entertainment screen as a GPS using the iPhone’s Waze app………

 

Sounds like a plan, however at the moment I am still waiting (since May) for Skoda to replace the duff entertainment screen (under warranty) that is no longer a ‘touch’ screen and it has a new habit of changing radio stations, dialling numbers from my favourites and constantly changing screens without any physical input from me. 
 

Is it possible to use my iPhone8 with Waze in this manner* and has anyone else experienced major snags with their screens?

 

*The dealer wants £150+vat to ‘enable’ my entertainment screen to talk to my iPhone8……

It is possible to do what you're suggesting.  I know because I do exactly that.  2016 SE L Drive Yeti and iPhone 8.   Most of the time I use it to play Radio Paradise but I have tried it with Waze.  However, for navigation, I use my Garmin nuviCamLMT-D .
