I had the CarPlay/Android Auto upgrade installed in my 2018 Mazda 6 yesterday.
It seems to work fine, but since no owner's manual update is provided by Mazda, usage isn't totally obvious. This is especially true because Mazda has done the integration to utilize the Infotainment control knob and associated buttons instead of the touch screen for most CarPlay/AA functions (also voice, of course).
Has anyone seen instructions on how to control all aspects of Android Auto in this way (the option I'm using)? For example, using the Infotainment radio while also using AA Google maps navigation can be done. I stumbled across doing this, but it's not clear how to switch between the two when used together.
This integration looks like it will work well, but some instructuons would be helpful.
Thanks
