Why it matters
On an unfamiliar country road, the hardest part is not knowing how tight the next bend is. A call a few seconds ahead gives you time to ease off before the bend, not in it.
Calls like a co-driver.
Bends on your route are graded by how tight they are and called before you reach them.
- Easy, medium or hard, left or right
- Bends close together are linked, for example “easy left, into medium right”
- Gentle curves are ignored
- Turns and roundabouts keep their normal directions
Timed to your speed.
Choose how early calls come in Call Timing.
- Early, Normal or Late: about 8, 5 or 3 seconds ahead
- Only at 30 km/h (about 20 mph) or faster
Turn it on.
Co-Driver Calls are off by default and need voice guidance.
- Settings → Driving → Navigation → Co-Driver
- Or from the Options menu during guidance
- Calls are spoken in English
Questions about Co-Driver Calls
Does Odo warn about sharp bends?
Yes, during navigation with Co-Driver Calls turned on. Bends on your route are called a few seconds ahead as easy, medium or hard, left or right.
Does it work without navigation?
No. Odo needs your route to know which bends are coming, so calls work during turn-by-turn navigation.
Which languages are the calls in?
The bend calls are spoken in English, even when the rest of Odo is set to another language.
Does Odo have turn-by-turn navigation on CarPlay?
Yes. Odo has turn-by-turn navigation on the CarPlay map, with route choices, lane guidance, voice directions, voice destination search and stops along the way. Full answer
