How do you navigate with Amundsen using iPhone Contacts addresses?

Featured Replies

iPhone 13 links to Infotainment via ApplePlay no problem.  Press Contacts button to navigate to the address and the alphabetical list appears.  Scrolling down to desired address and pressing gets "Invalid Address". Apple Contacts address format is identical to Amundsen so why won't it work?

 

Yesterday I sat for an hour with the 'Techy" at local main dealer playing about because it looks as though it should work.  I have a few overseas addresss in my Contacts and we found that Italian addresses worked but English, Portuguese and Canadian addresses were "invalid"??????

 

Has anyone any ideas?

All the post/zip codes except the Italian one contain non-numeric characters (alphabetic or punctuation or both). If I'm about right, possibly a USian zip will work, but nothing containing letters will.

Thanks for the idea, it sounded plausible so tried it with an address in France that I have that has an all number postcode - 46220 -  the result was “invalid”.  Any ideas if there is anywhere that could answer Amundsen problems, not necessarily VAG group?

I wonder if @Tell or @langers2k might be able to help?

I have zero experience with MIB3 headunits which I think the OP has, nor with attempting to navigate to an address stored in an iPhone 😕

 

It wouldn't surprise me if it's a MIB3 bug, not that it helps...

 

Personally, I prefer Waze/Google Maps to the inbuilt nav. I would hope CarPlay could set the destination to that stored in a contact?
