Silly app won't allow Google maps to show when I'm connected to my car. But show when I'm not.

half the stuff doesn't work. Navigation not possible with Google maps still. Samsung please work on it faster. My s5 was better off than this

Ok Samsung, Why the Car app now is so lame? I remember my S3, it was a really smart car mode app, it would read incoming texts and ask if I wanted to reply, had the text integration with S Voice. Sure Google voice was better, but when driving, S voice was perfect. It was slow, with a long dialog, but it was great, because it will ask before sending a text, even it would read it to you again. Please add Bixby integration to car mode. That would be good.

I have downloaded this app and now my galaxy S8 has locked up. I can not use my home or back buttons. I have tried to remove this the way that they have posted in earlier posts but I do not have an option to manually remove apps. This is a terrible app coming from a good company. I am very upset that I need to factory reset my phone now and lose everything I have.

Previous problems are fixed but nav bar buttons don't work. Does other strange things. Tried to read a text and it tried to make a call. Not going to bother trying again.

Absolute JUNK. Won't open. Disabled home button. Can't fix without hard reset. Samsung should be ashamed.

Dont use - functionality of phone will be affected - refer to Nick Dodge comments below. You must restart first then immediately on restart first uninstall car mode and the car mode remote if installed. Have full functionality back now after following instructions.

Thanks Nick Dodge. I've been dealing with that problem for 4 days. I called Samsung tech support twice and they wanted me to factory reset my phone. Thanks again.

The voice prompt constantly comes up on it's own interrupting whatever was going on and forcing you to manually close it, only for it to pop up again 10 seconds later. Utterly useless.

Honda owners are cursing you, Samsung. Please: 1. Make this app support Google Maps. 2. Get CCC Mirrorlink certification for 'Drive' mode, so we can have our navigation while driving. I have a brand new S8+ that will not function with my 2016 Honda because you have not bothered to update your app. I anxiously await updates to this app so I can use my shiny new phone...

by A####:

Concept is good but execution is poor. This app hardly functions as a hands-free hub with the majority of voice commands not working through the Bixby VA. This app does handle navigation via Google maps rather well and interaction with the music app is simple. This app with Google assistant (or at least the option to use Google assistant instead of Bixby) would be much better in my opinion.

by R####:

It's not as good as the app I had on the S5 it works most of the time but not all the time

H70%
