Why it matters
The fastest route on paper isn’t always the one you’d choose. Navigation that sits alongside your speed, trips and fuel data, and knows the roads you actually take, means one app for the whole drive instead of juggling two.
Getting where you’re going.
Start a route from search, your saved places, frequent destinations or recents. On CarPlay you can simply say where you want to go.
- Search, saved places, frequent and recent destinations
- “On your way to” suggestions based on your past drives
- Voice destination search on CarPlay
- “Navigate to Home with Odo” with Siri
Guidance you can follow at a glance.
Clear maneuvers, lane guidance and spoken instructions, with alerts when you go off route or a faster option appears.
- Voice guidance you can switch on or off
- Lane guidance
- Reroute or keep your route when you go off course
- Faster-route suggestions you can take or ignore
- Next turn, distance and arrival time in the Dynamic Island
Stops and preferences.
Add a fuel, charging or food stop along the way, reorder your stops, and tell Odo which roads to avoid.
- Add, skip and reorder stops, or let Odo optimize the order
- Avoid tolls, highways or ferries
- Routes from Apple Maps, from your own past drives, or an open-map fallback where Apple has no directions
On your car’s screen.
A route started on your iPhone continues on CarPlay, and the other way round. The map can follow you onto the CarPlay Dashboard and instrument cluster on supported cars.
- The same route on iPhone and CarPlay
- Standard, muted or satellite maps, in 3D, heading-up or north-up
- Light, dark or automatic map appearance, with live traffic
- Convoy members shown on the map
Questions about Turn-by-turn navigation
Can I use Odo for navigation, or alongside another navigation app on CarPlay?
Both. Odo has its own turn-by-turn navigation, and if you prefer another navigation app, Odo keeps recording your trip in the background. Full answer
