Won't work

By Chieflawdawg (Pcmac user)

**UPDATE** After updating to the latest OSI on my iPhone, the app has started working like it should. I have used it for three days now and it launches WAZE, NAVMII and this app Live without any problems. I hope that it continues so I will upgrade my rating to 4 stars. ---I bought a new Pioneer radio for my car. After installation, I downloaded this app Live. It powered up an worked fine the first day. Downloaded Waze and everything worked great. Day two, it wouldn't launch either app. I contacted Pioneer support and they told me I had to have this app so I downloaded it. Still nothing. My phone asks me if I want to launch this app Live and I "allow". Head unit says trying to connect. Nothing happens. On day one when I launched Live, the logo was in color when I opened the app but since then it is subdued. I can get to and change settings on my phone app but it still won't launch. Tired of trying. I guess that my expensive radio will just be just for answering Bluetooth calls. I would send radio back if it wasn't so hard to install. Come on Pioneer, if you are going to advertise this as a selling point for your radio at least get it to work.
Sluggish and phone must be on

By Bigmerf (Pcmac user)

Well this is a very buggy app. Portly made. I’m using it with my new 601ex. Waze often crashes whenever you touch the screen more than once consecutively. However the most annoying thing is the app must stay open on your phone in order for it to work. For that I might as well run it on my phone. Period
Problem connecting waze to pioneer

By Temptations92 (Pcmac user)

Is this compatible for iphone 8plus? On my phone it shows being connected but the screen is black on my radio(avh-x2800BS) The only app that works with is this app live. Waze use to show up on my screen before updated software on my phone to ios 11. Now when ever i open waze its just a blank screen and its showing connected? Their is no issue with my radio. How can it work? Is this a software issue? My radios software is up to date.
Great concept but....

By heyjack19 (Pcmac user)

This app has the potential to be great but it needs work. Waze will not open and work at all with this app. It wants to but it just can’t get there. My phone will show it connected and I can hear the voice through my radio but nothing on the screen. The main reason I wanted this app was so I could have a navigation head unit at half the price. Please fix this problem. When you do and it works for a while with no problems I’ll think about updating this review. Until then 1 star it is and that only because I can’t give anything lower.
