    So I have a Galaxy S10e. I use Google Maps for my navigation or Waze depending on traffic. I have the Entune app installed and synced with my truck.

    I noticed that my truck navigation cannot find anything or 'drive' me to specific locations because it has no internet access.

    Can it use my phone to do so?

    Is there a way to either display the navigation from my phone onto the navigation of the truck or get the navigation on the truck to work as well as Google Maps?

    The truck navigation comes from a SD card, it should not need internet access, mine does not.
    You can not input an address while driving unless you have it as a saved destination, is that why it wont work for you? Or are you going to locations off the grid?
    It would be nice to have a simple way to mirror your phone, but that's not gonna happen unless you get an Android Auto head unit.
