Cool Feature!

Hey, all!

So, I was having a play around in one of the work cars the other day (MY16 Octy Style) and I thought to myself "Hey, why don't I give this "Images" thing a go?"
So, I got my Windows phone (no App Connect for me!), plugged it into USB and selected the Images menu...
What happened next will shock you! (probably?) I navigated through all the pictures in the phone, and came across one of my car - because that seems to be all I take pictures of, really. A magical little button appeared, and so I pressed it... Low and behold, pure magic.






Turns out the nav unit can pull the geolocation data from JPEG's and navigate directly to that location! How cool is that?!
You don't need to save your sat nav library anymore; just take photos of the places you'd like to go and store the collection on an SD card... Or, better yet, get a mate to take a photo of somewhere they'd like to you go (subjective as always) and then put that photo on YOUR SD card and drive there directly!
The possibilities are endless!

That's pretty impressive!

Never heard of that feature on any other car.....

Tried this today via Apple CarPlay, unfortunately the images on the phone cannot be accessed in this way. Disconnected and tried via Bluetooth and still no luck. (iOS 10.1 and iPhone7 plus)

Unfortunately, CarPlay will take over the USB connection - you have to see if you can make the phone think its connecting to a computer. I know you'll be able to do this with Android by simply setting the USB connection mode to "Camera" or whatever it is...
Looks like anyone with Apple will have to do it via an SD card or USB flash drive.
