Will this work with Siri so that the map turn-by-turn directions lower the radio volume?

Yes, this is really an iPhone function. If you are listening to music, the turn by turn directions will be heard in place of the music, and then the music will return. The radio must listening to Bluetooth for this to work. I have the TomTom app, and it works great.

I don't have a Iphone so can't definitively answer. But I have a motorolla and am streaming spotify and while using GPS it will break into the music. If your like me and like Rock and at high volumes TURN RIGHT IN 1 MILE over my amped speakers will get your attention. heh.

There is a little icon like a speaker. hit that and it gives you voice directions. you can adjust the voice level and mute it easily. Very nice gps

you can switch tracks thru the device but haven't been able to get siri up and running. She's a pain in the ass anyway. Not real easy to use on a helmet but doable. Buttons could be bigger and easier to use

I have Siri as well. Just a quick push on the bottom button and Siri responds.

Yes it does. I actually didn't know originally. I had to try that out to find out. I'm glad you asked about that because now I know I can use the remote to activate Siri.

Yes. In Android you can use voice commands. However, I'm not sure about Siri as I haven't paired an iPhone. Great unit though, all steering wheel buttons work as well as 6 CD changer.

No, it does not. Only the mobile IOS uses Siri. Desktop Mac OS isn't the same...yet.

Actually, Chips DO work with BOTH SIRI and Android voice command. Hold Left Side for 5 second and tap right side!

Works with mine. Have to say "voice commands", that activates Siri and go from there.

If you have a gps that's pretty flat, then yes. You can squeeze it in there and turn it any direction. But if you have a big clunky old school one like I do, then no.

That's a negative on the volume, and I don't know about siri. I would assume that the iPhone itself controls the monitoring of the mic that's on a headset or similar, so most likely that won't be a cable issue regardless.

There is a setting to adjust the sound of the GPS voice and the music does go down when there are directions to be spoken but be aware that the GPS SUCKS!!! It tells me you have reached your destination on the left and it's either a mile or so up the road or it gives the wrong side. I have had nothing but problems with it, I should have just stuck with my Garmin. TERRIBLE!!!

I think so, Joe. I mean, it talks to you or I'm pretty sure you can chose to have it in text, but I only use the voice directions. Who wants to read while driving? LOL PJ

The buttons are small but half the time I just hit them to change stations or volume. The instructions are not very well written so I had to figure it out. I'm not sure how to answer this question really. If you don't mind just hitting buttons until you get results then yes. Hope this helps

You can't call siri up using the button (at least I haven't found a way), but if you start siri you'll have a mixed experience. Sometimes it's workable, other times it hinders use. Most times expect to have to use it a couple times unsuccessfully before you get a successful use. Also, while using navigation you'll get cut off instructions from Siri turn by turn. I get around this by playing Spotify, Pandora, Music, etc. while using GPS. It seems having that playing stops the cut off audio issue. Not sure if it's a Bluetooth issue or a software issue.

Yes you pair the device through Bluetooth and then you can place an answer calls, play music, and use Siri through the vehicle's microphone and speakers. Also handy when using GPS on the iPhone.
