Are you using the Honda Head Unit for the apps? or are you using your phone?

Your profile says your car is 2018 model.
I actually haven't used it yet on my CTR, i have only used it on my buddies 350z and my 08 si but when i get a chance ill set it up on my ctr

Do you have the bluetooth version or the wifi version for your 2018 Civic? Just curious.
Using the Bluetooth one on an Android phone. Just picked up a fire 10" to use for this instead of my phone.

Let us know how the Fire 10 works out in refresh/day/night I'm curious. I'm sure other people would love to hear it too.

Will do. I'll need to find a good mounting solution

Had to return the HD10 for the HD8 because the 10 was too massive to mount. I just mounted the HD on my phone mount to "test" it out. The screen quality isn't great so the blacks kinda suck but it works for very cheap. Haven't seen what it looks like at night yet so we'll see. Also have a different mounting solution arriving later today.

Is the boost gauge accurate? Mine is way off on Torque. Also, I read on here the 2018 models couldn't connect via BT. I guess that wasn't true. How'd you get Torque on the HU?

Edit: I see this adapter uses WiFi instead of BT. That's pretty sweet. I love how it's integrated but now that I think about it, I wouldn't want to lose Android Auto functionality while I'm using Torque. I'm pretty addicted to running Maps and Spotify.

With Torque you need to adjust the boost in the vehicle profile settings

Do you know what I need to change specifically? I can't find anything relevant
