Hi guys, I will soon own a 2014 CX-5 with Tech and I wanted to know if any current owners are able to send an address to the navigation/TomTom software through bluetooth.
I want to find a destination on my phone (Yelp, Google maps, etc) and use that address without entering it manually or struggling with the voice commands.

I tried sharing an address through bluetooth while taking the car out for a test drive, with my Android Gingerbread phone, but to no avail. The car would not accept the transfer.

I am getting the new Galaxy S4 phone so I was hoping that would make a difference, but I doubt it. Current owners with the S3 should be in the same boat.

My guess is that the navigation software is isolated from the bluetooth feature, since it doesn't use it for traffic or software update, so most likely it is not possible to straight out share an address with TomTom through bluetooth. Maybe it is possible on the IPhone through USB.

I hope that at least when transferring my contacts, the addresses can be used for navigation. I can work around that, by creating a contact that I will keep updating on my phone with a destination address and it will get synced to car as an option. I haven't tried syncing my contacts because I didn't want it to take forever and leave my contacts in the test car, so hopefully someone here can confirm that you can navigate to your contacts without entering their address manually.

Thanks!
