Ford Focus - Technical audio query for tech heads ! - Englishbullterrier
Hi all, recently obtained a Focus Mk3 with a Sony
head unit.

I’d like to use Waze for directions etc. However,
if I connect my phone via BT/aux input, it then
becomes a dedicated input, of course, and I get no
radio from the unit.

Is there a way to select my phone/Waze to the head
unit and still listen to the radio etc with Waze over-
riding the audio when giving directions etc ?

Thanks all……ebt

Not directly. You need a unit with a usb input . A wireless Bluetooth dongle might do the job

On my previous poverty spec Superb mkII S model that only had basic Bluetooth or aux input I used an Amazon echo auto to control my music over t'nternet be it BBC (BBC sounds), Spotify, Amazon or stuff on your phone etc... It all worked well if you had mobile signal. I also used internet radio which at the time was "Amazon play Scala radio, Boom radios etc" - oh and Borrow box for audio books,

You could also use Waze/ Google Maps as your preferred navigation linked to the Echo Auto.
