Can the map within the My Skoda app be used for GPS on the info screen?

You can plan a journey on the app map then send it to your car.

...but you can't use it as you would use, say, Google maps/Waze, via AutoAndroid?

As said the map in the app is for planning and sending data to the car sat nav. The sat nav in the car then handles the navigation.

If you don't like it then enable Android Auto or Apple Carplay.

If your maps are up to date the in car sat nav is pretty good. Better if you also have real time traffic.

I was rather disappointed that the car doesn't have it's own sat nav. Have to use Google maps off my phone via Android Auto

Sometimes it's more convenient to build a route on your phone/computer and then connect it to your car. IMHO.

If you don't have built in NAV than Android Auto is by far and away the best option.
