Default Listen to ‘Waze’ ?
I have not used ‘Waze’ for some time, was in my car and needed a GPS, reloaded ‘Waze’ set my route, had my ear bufs in. Really impressed with ‘Waze’ being REAL time / Traffic & road hazard updates from fellow ‘Waze’ users.

question. Anyway to plug Iphone into my 2015 Limited and ‘Listen’ to Waze as I ride??

I am cabled to the bike / I do NOT have Blue Tooth head sets

Tks

I use Waze on my bike, however, it is Bluetoothed. I usually turn the sound to alerts only. "Police ahead" and "Object in road" have been very helpful.

The Bluetooth is also for the phone to the radio, not just headset. It would be the exact same as using it in your car, the phone pairs to the radio, the radio then"plays" the Waze over your system, same as you are doing now. It does not plug in to the USB for Waze. USB would be charging and music actually stored on the phone.

So your saying, As I ride and my Iphone is bluetoohed to my bike (can accept incoming calls and make calls) thru the system like I always have... All I have to do is start my 'Waze' before I start my ride and with the phone in the tour pack - the voice promts from Waze can be heard thru my cabled head set - like an incoming call???? am I missing something??? I will test that later

No, you are not missing anything, that is how it works.

Do you have the the sound from the Boom system going to headset, rather than speaker?
