So it’s a real pain in the ass that the navigation in the Toyota only lets you out coordinates in as north south east and west instead of positive and negative lat Lon, bbbuttttt there’s an app in the truck that lets you use normal coordinates!

So this is the garbage setup if you just open navigation and I am yet to find a conversion that works.

But you just got to download entune on your phone (is required to open this specific app) and go to Destination Search

Then type your coordinates in the search as normal with the decimal and comma to get the address that will then open in your navigation.
This example is from my last camping trip in Bald Eagle State Forest PA.

That is an absolute huge instructional for me!! I'll definitely be using that in the future. Thanks for that one ?

Thank you for this!
 
There is a way around most things......thanks for sharing, will defiantly use it for some redundancy to GAIA maps!

I followed the instructions and I got an error saying I had to launch the app but, the app was launched & open.

Any suggestion?
