I'm curious how it does with the rounded back on the N6. I got the Koomus CD Mount magnet for my Pixel XL recently, and it will jerk the phone out of your hand.

What exactly does this mean? Are you talking about connecting to an external radio/hardware or a radio app on the phone?

It's triggered when the bluetooth connects.

I hadn't tried Android Auto yet, but I always use Waze on my way to and from work to avoid traffic.. so this could be useful.

I have a 2015 F-150 with all the bells and whistles. Is there any reason why I should download this app (benefits to me that I may not be realizing)?

Do you have to take the case off to use it?

I stuck the magnet on the back of case - didn't want to install it on the phone.

By doing it this way, the phone stays protected against falls and scratches and I can use magnet to stick phone on desktop or car stand.
