I am wondering if there is any advantage to installing Waze on the head unit of my 18 Si vs accessing the app on my smartphone (an LG V30) through Android Auto. It currently seems to be running fine through AA but some of the features are limited and I suspect installing the apk may open some of those up.
I also have a special bonus question worth 10 points:
I have noticed that while driving with Google Maps, I sometimes get Waze-type warnings via audio (Caution - vehicle stopped on side of road ahead). I think this happens when I start Waze first, then switch to Google Maps (both being phone apps accessed by the car through Android Auto) - as if Waze is still functional in the background when I do that. Is the head unit actually layering Waze audibles over Google Maps, or is this rather a Google Map feature I am not aware of?
