NaviBridge for Android
Looks great, but never connects to 2016 Lexus RX. Seems to work on Apple phones from reports I've seen, but not android. I wish it would....
I have tried using this app w my new jvc as described in the manual. It's not easy to use at all, more frustrating than anything. It's worthless!
Connect and transfer to my JVC head unit seems to work well. Searching in app is very weak. It only works against yelp data. If you want a non-restaurant, you have to cut and paste the address from Google or other search engine, search in Navibridge and then transfer. Not much better than just doing the search on the deck. If this app was registered on the android share menu, you could easily transfer search addresses.
It's all in Japanese

Have a JVC KW-NT510HDT and was only able to connect with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus twice. Now program only shows offline and cannot connect to it any longer. Uninstalled many times and unpaired Bluetooth several times as well. Running Android 4.2.2. What's going on? Thanks!
This app has a very low hit rate for points of interest, but the actual transferring of coordinates to my JVC nav unit works great! What this app *really* needs is the ability to act as a GPS app so it can take coordinates from other apps ( browser, google maps, etc ) and then send them to the GPS. If it did that, it would be fantastic!
Don't buy JVC for this program. It needs work. Has potential to be leader Being a business owner I have searched for a head unit that would finally incorporate smart phone features into a business class tool. This program has promise, but it does not have the seamless interface implied by both JVC and the software developers of this application. The interface is glitchy, you have to first fiddle with the phone and head unit to get them to connect. Then even if you are currently using google maps your calendar appointment address will not just propagate into the navibridge app, you have to copy/paste if you can, or re-enter everything into the app, then you can send to the head unit if it had decided to stay connected. If you are like me, and need to find 5 or more new addresses for new customers every day, you are going to have to spend at least an hour every single day fiddling around trying to get an address into the unit, trying to get a connection, or trying to reconnect just minutes after it had a connection and lost it. The units this is designed to work on are not cheap, I paid almost $1000.00 wholesale cost for it, and have a top end android phone. If you are considering this as a business app, dont waste your time or money. Hope they pay att
I too had trouble connecting bluetooth / Android. It took me all day to figure out how I was occasionally connecting. What I found that works every time was to select source iheart radio, will tell you to launch app, just go back to source menu and select HD radio source and navibridge will connect right away. If you launch Pandora or a BT Audio app you will loose link. just exit those and will link right back up.
Works really well and makes things easy.
I tried to locate several points of interest and this app couldn't find any of them...including places like Walmart and major airports.

Can not connect to the car. This makes the app useless
