bespoke?

I have a andriod phone and I was wondering if that bespoke app is ever going to hit the adriod google play store? Should I change to an iphone so I can use the bespoke app or if its nothing special and im not missing out on anything. Thanks

I have an Android device but know a few iPhone owners and they say the app sucks. Not worth downloading or changing your phone. There are Android connectivity head units out there though.

The BeSpoke app is terrible. The head unit itself isn't bad (it's functional), just overpriced if you're getting it for MSRP.

I have the bespoke audio system. I connect to my android phone through the Bluetooth option on the source. I can hear my navigation and play music through my phone all through the Bluetooth. for me it works just fine not a big deal I don't need an app. with the music it even lets you bypass and pause and the radio still controls everything when a call comes in.

Nope. It requires the BeSpoke App . If you want built-in navigation you're better off buying something aftermarket.

No, and not only is it not compatible with Android it's also not compatible with the iPhone 5.

Even when I had an iPhone 4 and it worked, the navigation is terrible. I'd rather use Google Maps and just listen to the instructions through my speakers than try and use it. I would not spend a dime trying to get Nav on this unit.
