I see that there***8217;s no heads up display for my iphone***8217;s waze or google maps, so I want to stick with the regular bmw navigation. Is there a way to do that and still have apple CarPlay on? Or do I need to deactivate CarPlay whenever I am using bmw***8217;s navigation (which in practice will unfortunately mean I will never use CarPlay)?
Yes you can use both at the same time but it gets a little annoying. Sometimes the system will default to apple maps when you press the nav button if you have been using another carplay function, which forces you to go back into the main menu and select the BMW navigation. CarPlay wont work with the heads up display as far as navigation goes.
It has its flaws but I have found its still better to navigate using both versus not using carplay at all.
