Hi, currently I know the following combination is possible:

Big screen (Left side)	Smallest screen (Right side)
Google Maps (Android Auto/Apple Car)	Hyundai "Forecast" app
Hyundai Map System	Spotify

Is anyone able to use: Google Maps / Spotify? For me looks like we can have only one Android Auto/Apple Car with a Hyundai /not very useful/ apps.

I haven't figured out how to do either of those...

It's the default configuration on my car, just like in this video:

Have a look at my answer on this thread ...

Infotainment Settings Help Needed

Hi! I’m new to this forum and feel great to have found this group. I purchased my 2022 Tucson in July and waited almost a month to get it. - So far, I’ve only had one issue that had me taking it back to the dealer and they needed it several days, and found out that it seems to be something...

Thanks for your reply, I saw your answer and it doesn't show any option to display what I want, everything is already selected but it won't display gmaps and Spotify at the same time.
I guess that the system is limited.

Sorry, I missed the subtlety of what you were hoping for. Since both Google Maps and Spotify are apps on your phone, the car’s split-screen function has no relevance. The best it can do is show the primary display app on your phone (so, only ONE of either Gmaps or Spotify) in either the left window or the right window of a split screen.

To achieve what you want, Android itself has to give you a split-screen function, using which you then select Gmaps and Spotify to be displayed concurrently. IF that was possible, you’d use full screen on the Tucson and hopefully, your selected Android split screen would be displayed.

np! I checked my settings and I could not find an option to disable the split-screen, do you know if it's possible? If is not, very sad, because the split screen is a waste of space, useless to see the time or current temperature, or a useless compass.

If yours is a trim with the 10-1/4” display similar to mine, you need to go to Device Connections (NOT the Display setup) to enable or disable split-screen for phone projection (whether iPhone or Android). I mentioned this in my previous post linked above.

What exactly do you mean by the media screen? Do you mean the one that shows what’s playing off your phone?

It works great! Thank you! The AA or AC needs to be disconnected to do it, then it works perfectly! Now I have a wide screen of maps

Media being audio i.e. spotify
In AA mode, the smaller screen only has options for weather, compass, Tucson sat nav, and hybrid info. It disables the ability to see media.

It's not possible, you can see details of what you are playing only if you use Hyundai navigation (the one that come with the car), then if you are playing music using Bluetooth it will display the music name there and maybe the artist cover.
What I did was configure to have the full wide screen, its more useful.

Of course not - both GMaps and Spotify are coming from your phone, so the car can’t simultaneously show 2 different phone apps on different parts of the vehicle screen.

Your phone can’t show 2 different apps concurrently in its own screen, can it?

Interesting - I'm an iPhone user so had no idea Android could do that! Even so, the question is, can Android do this with AA active? In particular, what happens if you set your phone up to display GMaps and Spotify concurrently, then connect to AA on your Tucson in full screen mode ... do both Android apps show up?

No, with AA looks like everything is terrible. Its slower, buggy, constant disconnection.
I'm using now Apple one and everything, is smooth.
From what I could observe: left screen is AA or AppleCar, right screen its Hyundai infotainment, no way to change it. You can hide the Hyundai one and have a full wide phone, right side can't be your phone. If you see a map, thats hyundai nav system, not gmaps.
