Sending address to nav via mercedes me
Hi all
i have the mercedes me app and i have the standard garmin nav, i see i can go into google maps, find an address and send that to mercedes me on my iphone.
It says its sent but nothing happens on the nav screen, i presume i am missing a step somewhere?

One more thing the app loading is quite slow.
P.s. not sure if command does it differently (I hope so)but even my BMW 2010 was getting addresses without me connecting a phone and directly to messages and even showing unread symbol.

Mercedes me is driving me mad. It was working great until yesterday and now the app is appalling. I have deleted and reinstalled about 20 times and can get to log in but then it just won’t open. I have tried on 3 phones and it’s the same on all of them.
The portal is working on the laptop so it isn’t that. I have sent an email to mercedes but no reply yet. Is anyone else having trouble opening the app? I briefly managed to get it working last night and it asked to authorise the app on the comand screen which I have. When I open the app it sticks on the attached two screens. I have emailed Mercedes but not sure what help they can give really.
Frustrating isn’t the word.

A couple of niggles, though. First, sometimes it doesn't show up until too late to be useful or not at all, and second I wish that the app kept a log of destinations already entered because the nav keeps only the last 20 and it would make it easier to send them again if necessary.

Took me a while to figure this one out cause Mercedes lack of tech is just appalling. You have to have your phone hotspot enabled (if iPhone ) and then go to Tlephone/Internet/apps there is an app called POI Download. Open it and it will be there. Choose the one you sent and select navigate to.
One more thing the app loading is quite slow.

This Works!
i just tried to send a google map pin to my car using the Mercedes Me app on my phone (complete using ??- selected Mercedes me app) and then went to the tel/intenet/mercedes apps- where I found the POI downloader - there it was the map pin I sent!
This is gonna save me a world of hurt fighting the Garmin interfase!
