Are there any issues with the Pioneer AVIC 5201nex?
As you have probably guessed, the Pioneer AVIC-5201NEX isn’t perfect. One of the biggest issues that I’ve found is that Mac updates are not supported. I mean, I love to keep my GPS up to date. There’s nothing worse than trying to go down on a one-way street.
What can I do with a pioneer navigation receiver?
Apple CarPlay compatibility allows a Lightning™-to-USB connection to provide access to select apps on newer iPhones. Once connected, the receiver shows large icons for functions such as Maps, Phone, Messages, Music, Now Playing, and Podcasts. Several streaming apps — including Pandora® — work within the CarPlay interface as well.
