I do wish I could still use that software now, but it will not run-on windows 10 or 11 and there is no current version that will. So here is my question.
Is there an APP or GPS unit that will support Android Auto. I have found the ToGo RV and CoPilot RV apps however both have significant shortcomings that are deal breakers form my standpoint. Any solution I select must support Android Auto. I simply do not want to deal with keeping a standalone unit accessible and visible let alone hear the voice navigation from the tiny little speaker on a cell phone or standalone GPS unit over the background noise of an RV at 70mph.

You know you can turn the volume off on a standalone GPS?
I simply don't understand why anyone would want all this discrete information on a single device that isn't in the direct field of view of the driver. There's a reason dash gauge clusters are made the way they are to display multiple parameters simultaneously. Can you imagine if you had to flip though the individual parameters on you dash gauges? Speed, Tach, Temperature, Oil Pressure, etc.
I want instant access to my GPS, TPMS, Rear View Camera, Toad Brake Display and Android Tablet. I don't want to flip through screens while driving to get that information.
