Driving directions on HUD disappeared

2024 1794 LE.

Why would the navigation directions on my HUD have disappeared? The last time I used navigation (from Carplay, Google Maps), the directions were as usual on the multi-media screen, but did not appear on the HUD as they have in the past. Please tell me that I inadvertently messed up a setting and not that this is part of a subscription service that I did not renew when the free period expired. thanks,

 

The Toyota navigation directions appear on the HUD but I've never had Google Maps directions appear on the HUD. Google maps does show on the guage cluster, so I do find it strange that it's not on the HUD.

 

Same for me and when the 1 year trial ended so did the directions in HUD for the Toyota navigation.

 

Were you using navigation through Carplay?

 

Yes, but when my free year was ending I started using the Toyota navigation and it showed up in HUD. I just wanted to see if it was worth the subscription for the Toyota app but decided it wasn't. I use Google Maps and I'm happy with it and using Waze occasionally so I let it expire.

 

Navigation in the HUD is only supported with the Toyota Navigation. Anything coming through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto will only be shown on the head unit. It has always been this way.

 

when I have my Apple CarPlay navigating with Apple Maps it definitely gives me directions on the heads up display to the left of my speedo

 

Really? There must be some odd thing happening for it to be there and then gone on some trucks. They have been working on resolving some of the CAN communication issues within the Combination Meter and Head Unit, this being one of them.

 

Not sure if HUD uses same information from the cluster display but Apple CarPlay only shows navigation turn on the cluster if you use it with Apple map.

 

I'll try the Apple Maps on CarPlay on the way home today and see if it works on my 24 1794 LE

 

That must be the thing, but who uses Apple Maps on the regular? It has improved over the years, but Waze is way ahead of it.

 

Can’t speak for the others. Never used anything other than Apple Maps

 

Me lol

 

That's it then. Apple Maps only for CarPlay to display on Combination Meter and HUD.

 

I used Waze years back when I was still
On Android but damn it would make the phone so hot and drain the battery way more than google maps did at the time.

 

It's great on iOS.

 

You gotta try Google Maps via CarPlay. The satellite view is awesome. I think it's a superior navigation app than Apple, Waze, or Toyota's, as well.

 

That's what I use but I thought I would try the Apple Maps to see if it showed up on HUD, I know Google Maps on CarPlay doesn't not show up on HUD

 

Gotcha. I don't have the HUD. Doubt I'd use it, even if I did.

My wife is used to Apple Maps. So, when we travel, she often compares Apple Maps to my displayed Google Maps. More often than not, Google Maps shows the best routes, more accurate traffic alerts, work zones etc...It even alerts you to police/speed traps, which has saved my bacon a few times.

And the satellite view is just plain cool, to me.

 

I can confirm that Apple Maps does show up in the HUD on CarPlay.
