Thanks for sharing your expertise. I purchased the 2019 Avalon Limited in Blizzard Pearl yesterday. My first Avalon was a '95 Demo, I traded it for a new 2000 Avalon XLS Blizzard Pearl that has 135,000 miles and still purring along. I'm thinking of gifting it to my granddaughter in a couple of months. In my 24 years of driving Avalons I have replaced an O2 sensor and a mass air flow sensor for the 2000. That's the only money I have spent on them other than regular maintenance, tires and batteries.
Thank you very much for making this video! I just purchased a 2015 CPO Avalon and totally lost when it comes to this entune. I am a senior citizen so I will probably have to watch this several times to get the hang of it. Thanks again!
You're very welcome! You are going to love the Avalon. I have had mine now for about a year and it is a great vehicle. Let me know if you have a specific question that was not answered and I will do what I can to explain it or link an additional video for you.
This is the absolute best tutorial I have ever watched. I bought the 2018 Avalon Limited Hybrid and must say the entune is a bit intimidating. You have simplified this for me and now, I'm ready to take it on. :) Thanks for the great video!
I appreciate your long tutorial. I own a 2017 Prius Three with the Premium Navigation System. It is the worst navigation system I have ever used. In most areas I drive for work it simply does not work, even though basic cell phone navigation systems work perfectly in the same areas. However, in order to use other apps, like messaging, or just hands free phone operation, the Entune system and app controls the smart phone. That means that when the navigation does not work (and the voice recognition system is even worse than the navigation system which does not work, for example, in the Pocono mountains, where I work) that the smart phone does not independently work, it takes extra unexpected steps to make voice recognition work and sound is only available if one chooses bluetooth as the sound source, which means no radio. But even then there is no sound from the phone without two unexpected touch screen steps. I almost smashed up doing that. This system is a big shiny waste of money and now I use it just for radio and use my smart phone independently as I did in my old car. I have changed my phone settings and made Toyota Prius a non-trusted device. I feel like a big sucker to have bought Toyota nonfunctional and dangerous technology because this navigation system is integrated into the total operation of the car. It is a bad joke.
Um that’s not the car’s fault that’s you. Even if you bought a Honda CR-V that has Apple car play and android auto you would still be arguing and complaining about the navigation system. Because even they don’t have the sharpest app suite. In fact Honda link is very unintuitive and graphics are a bit dated.
Thanks for the very informative video. I have a 2016 Camry XLE and learned a few things about it that I was unaware of. I also just subscribed to your channel. Thanks again!
Hi thank you for that video i really very instresting i install a 2016 audio with navigation on my 2011 toyota rav 4 it was workig fine like about 2 month now i can hear the GPS voice guyidence i check every stuff the voice guyidence on the it showing on but i can hear it
Whats a quick way to end a navigation destination? For instance I'm navigating to the mall but then decide to go back home, how do u stop the guidance?
SkiLLy, thank you for this video. You answered several of my questions on how to use this system, but I do have one more question. You mentioned downloading Google Maps from one's personal phone onto the navigation system. How do you do that?
Let's make it straight - I have five Toyotas at the moment ranging from 1991 to 2018, and I am truly convinced that nothing - even Honda - comes even close. Except stereo. My 2004 4Runner came with tape player. No shit! 2018 4Runner came with CD (not even DVD - CD!) player. Again, no shit. I don't use CD (or DVD for that matter) so I could live with this ridiculous dinosaur if the entire entune thing was not such a huge pile of crap. For starters, you can't really play audio files (USB in my case) longer than 60 minutes. After that, it keeps playing but the counter is totally confused. Second, if you shut the engine off, next time it's powered, it starts playing from a beginning of a random file. I drive long distances and listen to audio books, files can be hours long. So every time you start the engine, you not only have to browse to the file you were listening to (and to make your life even more miserable, the file names are not shown, some weird numbers are) AND rewind to the place your left off. And finally, what Toyota deems "FAST" forward is 16 times faster than playback. Do your own frickin' Math how long you need to keep pushing the damn button to get to the 3 hr location within the file. Solution? I through the damn thing out and installed a nice AM Pioneer for $150. To be fair, prior to throwing entune into garbage can, I tried to sell it on ebay. I figured that since the stealer wanted $4,100 (yes, FOUR THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AMERICAN DOLLARS!) for POS, I should be able to sell it for a couple hundred to cover replacement. No such luck. Now, let me re-iterate - I do not regret buying a Toyota for a split second despite this awfully ridiculous artifact aka "entune infortainment center".
How can you make that same navigation show only one panel (the navigation only) ? I've tried every thing I possibly could under every single setting but it always goes to 2 panel mode after 29 seconds or so .
i have a 2015 XLE camry, the bluethoot, USB, CD player, radio and screen has been blocked and sudenly it works... i could you please help me to find a solution for this?
I have a 2016 Highlander. I can’t seem to get the navigation system to work properly. The word address is not highlighted So I can’t enter an address. Any solutions?!
Thanks so much, SkiLLy! I have what I thought is the Premium Navigation system (Toyota Corolla 2016S), but I can't find any way to adjust the screen touch sensitivity. I did see the specific setting you used, but the TOUCH SWITCH setting doesn't exist on my Entune system under General settings (or anywhere else that I can see). I would love to know whether it exists on my Toyota, and, if it's called something different, what it would be.
I love the looks of the touring model that I want to go look at though everybody keeps telling me oh its no different looking then your 2015 xle an only the wheels look different but I think it has more options like the sunroof led lights as well the door trims that say avalon that light up
The light up feature is actually an option that you can get in any Avalon. They are the illuminated door sill addons. There are a few advantages in 2015. Some I stated in your other comment however you get Blind Spot Monitor and paddle shifters as well.
I really want to see a demonstration of how well the voice navigation setting work. I need it to be as easy as, "Hey Google, drive to Scott's Bowling Alley."
I agree. I have not had a good experience with using voice commands for the navigation in my Avalon. You need to speak the exact commands as the system requires. Google maps is way more forgiving, or should I say understanding. For that reason, I seldom use the navigation in the car and just use Google maps instead. My next car will have Android Auto and Apple car play. I rented a Fusion that had it and loved it.
why does my 2017 toyota prius v Five navigation always looses signal from gps and cant ever really use the navigation because just using it one time on a decent size trip always screws it up and i have to re-calibrate it and that takes long so I never use it because that's annoying to do it every time each trip? really sucks cant ever use navigation.
I have the 2016 Highlander, and love it! Just got it, and everything is pretty self explanatory. However, I can't seem to get the Nav system to use my phone contacts addresses. I have the Entune system and sync my phone to it. I see my contacts on the screen, but that is only if I want to call them from the vehicle. I want to use the Nav system to perform a "Go to Steve's house"...and it looks up Steve's contact and adds that address to the destination. Thoughts?
I have a Venza, 2013. Been watching a few RUclips Vids and I am finding out I am getting very confused because every one is showing a diff system.. My screen looks diff from others as does each one from vid to vid ?? why is that? How do I find out what version mine is, can it be upgraded, ect...
my 2013 Highlander has recently stopped connecting to my smart phone. I really need the hands free phone. What can I do to get the phone connection to hold. Thank you for your Entune Discussion.
Hi, this video is 4 years old now. Is there hope that Toyota will integrate car play or android auto to its older car models eg. 2016 models? You don't get that much value with entune in other countries, eg Google maps is universal unlike scout that works only in the US. They have Alexa now so it means they can update other apps in the entune system. If not, do you recommend changing the infotainment system completely?
How do you turn off the list of exits that keep popping up on the right-hand side of the screen during navigation? (I'm in full screen map mode, but it keeps popping back up anyway and it's driving me nuts)
can you tell me why the avalon hasn't change its design unlike the camry? the avalon hasn't changed for a few years now. recent change was just the front bumper. why is that?
If i use the easyseat option and adjust it so it does not go all the way back like is your preference because i am short......and put it in memory 1. Then does memory 2 button go back to the setting for driver 2 who wants it to go fully back?
Thanks...it did work. I have watched this over and over and would have been lost with out it. You have packed everything anybody needs to know in this video. Very clever.
What is the setting that i have to use in order for my doors to lock when i get out of the car because currently it does not and it used to i think. I was into the settings and changed stuff and cannot figure out how to get it back to locking my doors automatically. I have to use the fob. Thanks again. Hope i am not bothering you with this.
I bought the car used, the previous owners address is in the nav system. I just paired my phone if I delete all personal data to get rid of his nav addresses will my phone stuff go as well?
Wouldn't this system make it easy for someone to track down someone else's location, such as an estranged husband trying to find his wife who is trying to get away from him? Can the car operator (female) turn the system off to prevent being found?
Hey Skilly, there is one thing i have yet to figure out on this system. After entering an address for example say im going to a private residents and i have several other addresses as well how do you assign the names to the addresses saved?
I would like to know what the on/off animation feature does in the settings I have turned it on and off and see no difference I know it's just above where you can upload your own images for the start up image and the screen off images.
I have subscribed to Traffic only with XM Radio, but I do not see the traffic alerts. What is not set right? I notice I do not see the red HD by the little cars like shown in the video. Is that the cause? If so, how do I turn it on?
This is great, it would be great if you could also have video for Scout GPS Link and how to identify if you have a supported entune - the multiple versions of entune are confusing. I tired multiple time to link scout to my 2016 SE Camry with Nav, to enable searching on my phone and using the screen for directions.
Great idea! I think I might have to do that soon. Keep an eye out. I will make sure that is something I do this month. In the mean time what operating system are you using?
When can we see a video on this ? I have entune premium but fail to install scout link, have tried many times, it just does not detect my car even if entune app is running in background and phone has 4G
I'm sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Crazy week with the end of the month stuff. That is correct the 4Runner's do not have vehicle configuration options as of yet. It might be something they add to the newest generation however. Sorry for the inconvenience!
I have a 2017 Toyota Camry. I have went through the voice tutorial several times and still she can't understand what I'm asking her to do. It's infuriating. In the three years that we have owned our Toyota I haven't seen nearly all of the screens that you showed us in this video. I'm sure that I'm not pushing the right buttons.
Klik, That is an incredible question and I wish I could say yes. However at this time it is not available. However I have seen some modifications that can be made to the system itself to broadcast your screen onto your display. This is new and I have not done a lot of research into it however. If you wanted more info on that let me know. If not, you will have to just use your phone and stream it through the Bluetooth system itself.
Thank you for the reply, it would be great Toyota allow personalized options. Spotify is my choice because I use it with my Run tracking app and don't want another app.
I have a Toyota Avalon xle 2015 want to look at the touring model as sales guy didn't seem to know about the navigation too much we was playing with it on the test drive because I'm thinking about the touring model but the arrows pointing a different direction when I was driving when it should be like Google maps driving how you should be is there a way to fix this?????
TheToyotaPro do you really think it handles much different then 2015 xle ,? I only test drove it for five minutes on busy road today since it was low on fuel an the dealer was pretty busy , yeah I saw the navigation thing in your video but does the arrow lineup on the highlighted part eventually? does it have the upgraded sound system from mine? or limted only gets that?
The Limited is the only one that received the upgrade for the audio. And if you are talking about just the base XLE and not the XLE Premium there are quite a few things different. However I'm guessing since you are asking about navigation you have the Premium. They will drive the same. The only model that will drive different is the 2016 Touring. In 2016 they made the suspension softer in all models except for the Touring. In that model they actually kept a more sport tuned suspension. Now regarding the arrow. Not entirely sure what you mean by that. Do you have a link to a pic that I can take a look at to better understand the issue? Thanks!
TheToyotaPro yeah I just have the Xle base , yes for the navigation when we was playing with it on the test drive I don't like how the screen is where the arrow is pointing a different direction as you're driving like Picture yourself phone using Google maps but the arrow pointing a different direction I guess maybe I will go to a different dealer tomorrow and try to take a video of it or a photo... wondering if I should also wait for the 2017 touring model instead
Well, there are some great advantages with the 2017 models. If you have not seen my Toyota Safety Sense video yet check it out. The 2017's have the TSS-P ruclips.net/video/t072-GJVexA/видео.html
Here is a simple general question that I've asked several times and can't get an answer. How do you setup multiple email accounts on the Message app? I have a 2017 Tacoma paired with a Galaxy S7 Android. No problem pairing the text messages and one email, but it won't list the 2nd email account. The manual implies this can be done with an illustration: "SMS EMAIL 1 EMAIL2", so I assume it can be done. I've tried placing both accounts into one phone app and on separate apps. Nothing works. BTW, my local dealer can't figure it out either. Can you help?
I order to update the maps you will have to go to your nearest Toyota Service Center and they will do the update for you. It is through the dvd or the micro sad card depending on the model. Hope this helps!
Here is the remedy I was able to find: "With the car running and with your lights on (put it into manual mode if during the day) press the SETUP button to the right of the nav screen and then press the DISPLAY button on the screen. If the DAY MODE option is selected toggle it off. The screen should go into NIGHT MODE. Now turn off you lights to see if the screen goes back into DAY MODE. If it works for turning your lights on manually it should work the same for AUTO mode which you can test by putting the lights back into auto mode."
Yes and no, they did a slight model refresh on the 2016 models. The front end is slightly different as well as the addition of the XLE Plus Trim and the elevation of the Touring Level to be more sporty in look and feel.
Akirah Shamie Honestly I am not sure when they will be doing a redesign for the Avalon. I know the Camry is getting a full redesign for 2018 but not sure what other models will get the bump.
Thanks for sharing your expertise. I purchased the 2019 Avalon Limited in Blizzard Pearl yesterday. My first Avalon was a '95 Demo, I traded it for a new 2000 Avalon XLS Blizzard Pearl that has 135,000 miles and still purring along.

Gerald Shouse - Okay.
Thank you very much for making this video! I just purchased a 2015 CPO Avalon and totally lost when it comes to this entune. I am a senior citizen so I will probably have to watch this several times to get the hang of it. Thanks again!

Very Helpful for New Toyota Highlander Owners. Thank You 👍
You should sell this to Toyota. Very helpful.

My pleasure :)
Very helpful. Answered a lot of questions and showed me some things the dearlership did not.
Fred Mertes the dealership is where you bought the car no? How can the building show you anything? I'm joking you mean the dealer.
I appreciate your long tutorial. I own a 2017 Prius Three with the Premium Navigation System. It is the worst navigation system I have ever used.

Um that’s not the car’s fault that’s you. Even if you bought a Honda CR-V that has Apple car play and android auto you would still be arguing and complaining about the navigation system. Because even they don’t have the sharpest app suite. In fact Honda link is very unintuitive and graphics are a bit dated.
Seriously I am speechless, what an awesome review, thank you very much.
Was looking for walkthrough how to navigate folders/genres in a usb key... I guess I will have to keep looking.
I just bought a Rav4 and this was very helpful! Thank you!
Awesome instructional video on Toyota's Entune Navigation system! Thank You SkiLLy!
Thanks for the very informative video. I have a 2016 Camry XLE and learned a few things about it that I was unaware of. I also just subscribed to your channel. Thanks again!
Thank you for becoming a new member!
Incredible demonstration
Toyota needs to update and make this more user friendly because otherwise it is a hazard for distracted driving.
Hi thank you for that video i really very instresting
i install a 2016 audio with navigation on my 2011 toyota rav 4 it was workig fine like about 2 month now i can hear the GPS voice guyidence i check every stuff
the voice guyidence on the it showing on but i can hear it
Whats a quick way to end a navigation destination? For instance I'm navigating to the mall but then decide to go back home, how do u stop the guidance?
How can U tell what gen entune radio you have i have a 2017 Toyota tundra 40.000 miles factory radio. GREAT WALK THROUGH.
This video is great! My navigation is suddenly gone. The button is now shaded out and I can’t click on the navigation.
A good review for a dated system!
SkiLLy, thank you for this video. You answered several of my questions on how to use this system, but I do have one more question. You mentioned downloading Google Maps from one's personal phone onto the navigation system. How do you do that?
My car is 2015 4runner Trail. How can I update navigation maps and what I need to get ? Please help me out with that . Thank you very much.
I was told that the top radio gives you remote start and the only way to have remote start is with the top radio, is that true
Let's make it straight - I have five Toyotas at the moment ranging from 1991 to 2018, and I am truly convinced that nothing - even Honda - comes even close.
Except stereo.
My 2004 4Runner came with tape player. No shit!
2018 4Runner came with CD (not even DVD - CD!) player. Again, no shit. I don't use CD (or DVD for that matter) so I could live with this ridiculous dinosaur if the entire entune thing was not such a huge pile of crap.
For starters, you can't really play audio files (USB in my case) longer than 60 minutes. After that, it keeps playing but the counter is totally confused.
Second, if you shut the engine off, next time it's powered, it starts playing from a beginning of a random file. I drive long distances and listen to audio books, files can be hours long. So every time you start the engine, you not only have to browse to the file you were listening to (and to make your life even more miserable, the file names are not shown, some weird numbers are) AND rewind to the place your left off. And finally, what Toyota deems "FAST" forward is 16 times faster than playback. Do your own frickin' Math how long you need to keep pushing the damn button to get to the 3 hr location within the file.
Solution? I through the damn thing out and installed a nice AM Pioneer for $150. To be fair, prior to throwing entune into garbage can, I tried to sell it on ebay. I figured that since the stealer wanted $4,100 (yes, FOUR THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AMERICAN DOLLARS!) for POS, I should be able to sell it for a couple hundred to cover replacement. No such luck.
Now, let me re-iterate - I do not regret buying a Toyota for a split second despite this awfully ridiculous artifact aka "entune infortainment center".
My system is nothing like this. I wish it was like this. I have a 2015 Prius v with built it nav and jbl
How can you make that same navigation show only one panel (the navigation only) ? I've tried every thing I possibly could under every single setting but it always goes to 2 panel mode after 29 seconds or so .
Very very helpful. Thank you so much. 👊🏼💝
I actually bought a Toyota Corolla 2020 few days ago it has the map option but it doesn't have navigation maps installed on it ?
I have a 2020 RAV4. Noticed the volume of the lane assist sound is low. Any wat to increase the volume? Thank you.
i have a 2015 XLE camry, the bluethoot, USB, CD player, radio and screen has been blocked and sudenly it works... i could you please help me to find a solution for this?
I have a 2016 Highlander. I can’t seem to get the navigation system to work properly. The word address is not highlighted So I can’t enter an address. Any solutions?!

All I want to be able to add an address while driving. I cant do this unless I physically stopped. It’s a 2016 Tacoma
I love the looks of the touring model that I want to go look at though everybody keeps telling me oh its no different looking then your 2015 xle an only the wheels look different but I think it has more options like the sunroof led lights as well the door trims that say avalon that light up
The light up feature is actually an option that you can get in any Avalon. They are the illuminated door sill addons. There are a few advantages in 2015. Some I stated in your other comment however you get Blind Spot Monitor and paddle shifters as well.
Or can you input prior to starting the Rav. ? You opened my eyes to its possibilities.
I really want to see a demonstration of how well the voice navigation setting work.

very good info. but i am teying to put waze on my 2018 toyota camry radio screen
why does my 2017 toyota prius v Five navigation always looses signal
from gps and cant ever really use the navigation because just using it
one time on a decent size trip always screws it up and i have to
re-calibrate it and that takes long so I never use it because that's
annoying to do it every time each trip? really sucks cant ever use
navigation.
How do you have navigation display on full screen all the time
go into settings on the GPS and it will give you several layout options.
@@redwingertommy I do that, hit full screen and it only lasts a few minutes, then goes back to the reg split screen
I have the 2016 Highlander, and love it! Just got it, and everything is pretty self explanatory. However, I can't seem to get the Nav system to use my phone contacts addresses. I have the Entune system and sync my phone to it. I see my contacts on the screen, but that is only if I want to call them from the vehicle. I want to use the Nav system to perform a "Go to Steve's house"...and it looks up Steve's contact and adds that address to the destination. Thoughts?
How do you stop a navigation or change a destination?
I have a Venza, 2013. Been watching a few RUclips Vids and I am finding out I am getting very confused because every one is showing a diff system.. My screen looks diff from others as does each one from vid to vid ?? why is that? How do I find out what version mine is, can it be upgraded, ect...
Can you pair the navigation map of the phone with the entune navigation system? Honda and some chevy cars have THE CAR PLAY system?
Android Auto or Apple Car Play please?
my 2013 Highlander has recently stopped connecting to my smart phone. I really need the hands free phone. What can I do to get the phone connection to hold. Thank you for your Entune Discussion.
Just purchased a 2015 Venza last night. Can you tell me how to reset the navigation system and clear prior data?
How do you change your home address (Go Home) button address when you've moved??? Thanks!
Hi, this video is 4 years old now. Is there hope that Toyota will integrate car play or android auto to its older car models eg. 2016 models? You don't get that much value with entune in other countries, eg Google maps is universal unlike scout that works only in the US. They have Alexa now so it means they can update other apps in the entune system. If not, do you recommend changing the infotainment system completely?
Can you use waze thru entune on 2015 sienna??
Did you have to have the vehicle running inside a garage to show us the Nav screen?
How do you turn off the list of exits that keep popping up on the right-hand side of the screen during navigation? (I'm in full screen map mode, but it keeps popping back up anyway and it's driving me nuts)
can you tell me why the avalon hasn't change its design unlike the camry? the avalon hasn't changed for a few years now. recent change was just the front bumper. why is that?
How does the nav update? 2016 avalon.
If i use the easyseat option and adjust it so it does not go all the way back like is your preference because i am short......and put it in memory 1. Then does memory 2 button go back to the setting for driver 2 who wants it to go fully back?
Yes it will move the seat all the way back for you and when you get in the car it will move you back forward once the brake is depressed I believe
Thanks...it did work. I have watched this over and over and would have been lost with out it. You have packed everything anybody needs to know in this video. Very clever.
Thank you! I'm glad to be of service
Thank you!!
What is the setting that i have to use in order for my doors to lock when i get out of the car because currently it does not and it used to i think. I was into the settings and changed stuff and cannot figure out how to get it back to locking my doors automatically. I have to use the fob. Thanks again. Hope i am not bothering you with this.
I bought the car used, the previous owners address is in the nav system. I just paired my phone if I delete all personal data to get rid of his nav addresses will my phone stuff go as well?
Wouldn't this system make it easy for someone to track down someone else's location, such as an estranged husband trying to find his wife who is trying to get away from him? Can the car operator (female) turn the system off to prevent being found?
Great tutorial!
In Navigation I want the voice prompt to be on all the time so I can get voice prompts turn by turn . I have a 2018 Avalon Limited.
I have a 2016 Camry Special Edition ,but in not able to sign up for entune ??
Hey Skilly, there is one thing i have yet to figure out on this system. After entering an address for example say im going to a private residents and i have several other addresses as well how do you assign the names to the addresses saved?
I would like to know what the on/off animation feature does in the settings I have turned it on and off and see no difference I know it's just above where you can upload your own images for the start up image and the screen off images.
I have subscribed to Traffic only with XM Radio, but I do not see the traffic alerts. What is not set right? I notice I do not see the red HD by the little cars like shown in the video. Is that the cause? If so, how do I turn it on?
From my knowledge they get the traffic alerts from the HD radio. You have to have a radio station broadcasting an HD signal in order to get that.
How can I put music on a flash stick efficiently? Also, some of my CD are in Chinese, how can I get it to display the characters? Thanks
Is it possible to have the radio volume go down durning navigation prompts ?
When I use my voice command button the system is resisting what do you thing is the problem on my Tacoma 2014?
door sill add ons oh OK I was thinking it came standard on the touring
Great job!
This is great, it would be great if you could also have video for Scout GPS Link and how to identify if you have a supported entune - the multiple versions of entune are confusing.
I tired multiple time to link scout to my 2016 SE Camry with Nav, to enable searching on my phone and using the screen for directions.

+TheToyotaPro (Sk1LLy) My current Operating System version shows as Operating System : CU.20.14. Looking forward for the video
Are you an apple or android user?

When can we see a video on this ? I have entune premium but fail to install scout link, have tried many times, it just does not detect my car even if entune app is running in background and phone has 4G
I am play chinese music off the USB but Entune cannot display chinese characters. How do you set it. Thanks
Is there a way to turn off navigation once you get into an area you are familiar with?
Dest then Del Dest

My 2016 4Runner Limited appears to have the same Premium Entune system, however there is no "Vehicle" icon to configure??
I'm sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Crazy week with the end of the month stuff. That is correct the 4Runner's do not have vehicle configuration options as of yet. It might be something they add to the newest generation however. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Thanks for your response. Appreciate it!
do you have to upload the app Entune to get Pandora
No one should be able to be tracked without their knowledge or permission, absent a search warrant from a judge!
2019 Tundra here......saves me from reading the tiny print in the owners manual.
Thanks
What should I do?
I have a 2017 Toyota Camry. I have went through the voice tutorial several times and still she can't understand what I'm asking her to do. It's infuriating. In the three years that we have owned our Toyota I haven't seen nearly all of the screens that you showed us in this video. I'm sure that I'm not pushing the right buttons.
Does the sensitivity setting work for the other buttons such as audio/apps, etc or just the touch screen?
Just the touch screen
Is it possible watch movies on it?
How can add map of a country in my navigation system?
2016 RAV4 Hybrid XLE, is it possible to upload an app to Entune? I use Spotify music and would rather have it than pandora or iheart.
Klik, That is an incredible question and I wish I could say yes. However at this time it is not available. However I have seen some modifications that can be made to the system itself to broadcast your screen onto your display. This is new and I have not done a lot of research into it however. If you wanted more info on that let me know. If not, you will have to just use your phone and stream it through the Bluetooth system itself.
Thank you for the reply, it would be great Toyota allow personalized options. Spotify is my choice because I use it with my Run tracking app and don't want another app.
Completely understandable. Let me know if there is anything else I can answer for you.
I have a Toyota Avalon xle 2015 want to look at the touring model as sales guy didn't seem to know about the navigation too much we was playing with it on the test drive because I'm thinking about the touring model but the arrows pointing a different direction when I was driving when it should be like Google maps driving how you should be is there a way to fix this?????
Take a look at 22:00 and on. I believe that is the answer to the question. Also the Avalon Touring is amazing! I have one myself and love it!
TheToyotaPro do you really think it handles much different then 2015 xle ,? I only test drove it for five minutes on busy road today since it was low on fuel an the dealer was pretty busy , yeah I saw the navigation thing in your video but does the arrow lineup on the highlighted part eventually? does it have the upgraded sound system from mine? or limted only gets that?
The Limited is the only one that received the upgrade for the audio. And if you are talking about just the base XLE and not the XLE Premium there are quite a few things different. However I'm guessing since you are asking about navigation you have the Premium. They will drive the same. The only model that will drive different is the 2016 Touring. In 2016 they made the suspension softer in all models except for the Touring. In that model they actually kept a more sport tuned suspension. Now regarding the arrow. Not entirely sure what you mean by that. Do you have a link to a pic that I can take a look at to better understand the issue? Thanks!
TheToyotaPro yeah I just have the Xle base , yes for the navigation when we was playing with it on the test drive I don't like how the screen is where the arrow is pointing a different direction as you're driving like Picture yourself phone using Google maps but the arrow pointing a different direction I guess maybe I will go to a different dealer tomorrow and try to take a video of it or a photo... wondering if I should also wait for the 2017 touring model instead
Well, there are some great advantages with the 2017 models. If you have not seen my Toyota Safety Sense video yet check it out. The 2017's have the TSS-P

Here is a simple general question that I've asked several times and can't get an answer. How do you setup multiple email accounts on the Message app? I have a 2017 Tacoma paired with a Galaxy S7 Android. No problem pairing the text messages and one email, but it won't list the 2nd email account. The manual implies this can be done with an illustration: "SMS EMAIL 1 EMAIL2", so I assume it can be done. I've tried placing both accounts into one phone app and on separate apps. Nothing works. BTW, my local dealer can't figure it out either. Can you help?
Hmm, Let me look int this for you and get back to you. If I find something I will post the link to a video in a comment below.
No luck yet?
I am sorry no luck :(
Do you know if Toyota has a support phone number or website I could access?
I would ask on this : www.toyotanation.com/forum/153-avalon-forum/
Could you do a tutorial on how To do the google maps stuff?
Unfortunately Google maps is not compatible. You will still need to rely on your phone for that.
How do I setup the scout gps link on my 2017 Camry le
Take a look at this video I created to show just that :) ruclips.net/video/sCnB7j6pMi8/видео.html
How do you update the map?
I order to update the maps you will have to go to your nearest Toyota Service Center and they will do the update for you. It is through the dvd or the micro sad card depending on the model. Hope this helps!
My car isn’t entune compatible : (
How to cancel a destination?
How do you link calls on the Entune Premium system? Thanks!
Not sure what you mean by that. Do you mean how do you make a call in the system? Or how do you create favorites on the system?
I want to have a conference call! My 2012 4Runner system allowed me to speak with two people at a time.
That I am not sure on. My guess is that you will have to set it up on your phone prior to switching to hands free mode on your phone.
I am afraid that is the answer! Thanks!
How to turn off Nav system
In what way? Canceling a destination?
+John Unorski do you mean how to stop route guidence on the system?
SkiLLy i was wondering why when i connect my phone via usb the nav starts automatically to give direction to i dont know where
SkiLLy how do u stop the nav once it starts
can I put navigation on night mode
Here is the remedy I was able to find: "With the car running and with your lights on (put it into manual mode if during the day) press the SETUP button to the right of the nav screen and then press the DISPLAY button on the screen. If the DAY MODE option is selected toggle it off. The screen should go into NIGHT MODE. Now turn off you lights to see if the screen goes back into DAY MODE. If it works for turning your lights on manually it should work the same for AUTO mode which you can test by putting the lights back into auto mode."
Entune is ot in tune with Toyota owners.
You didn't show the easy way to add Favorites!!
hey isn't the avalon due for a redesign yet?
Yes and no, they did a slight model refresh on the 2016 models. The front end is slightly different as well as the addition of the XLE Plus Trim and the elevation of the Touring Level to be more sporty in look and feel.
TheToyotaPro got ya:) yeah I was worried about a completely re-designed in case if I got a 16 model or 17 model
Akirah Shamie Honestly I am not sure when they will be doing a redesign for the Avalon. I know the Camry is getting a full redesign for 2018 but not sure what other models will get the bump.
Akirah Shamie yes
