Until the most recent update, the one that added the split screen ability, the only issue was the need to connect with a Samsung cable for a Samsung phone. Now, maps don't connect from the app unless I set the map direction up before plugging into the car. Also, text messages pop up for a short notice, but close to a small number at the bottom of the screen at the right side, furthest away from the driver. Difficult to get to fast or easy while driving.

Absolutely despise the new UI. The real estate is inefficiently utilized and it's much more tedious to navigate. It was way better when the music bar was at the bottom instead of unnecessarily occupying 1/4 or 1/2 of the screen. The app dock at the bottom has no justifiable use case. Also not a fan of the clock being moved to a less noticeable location. I wish we could customize the layout of the UI, because this is just bad. At the very least, add another toggle to use the old layout.

It doesn't look like there are many helpful responses here from the developer, but I thought I'd post regardless, hoping someone found a resolution. I like the interface, but the pandora keeps cutting out, and then maps would keep cutting in even though I didn't have any destination set. If it would consistently work as it should, I would give it a 5 star. I really like this app so I hope they can resolve it. Update: I cleared the cache. Straightened things out for 20 minutes. Time to disable.
