Is it possible to display actual speed limits on the screens from the navigation system?

Shows up only with engine running (ignition is not enough). Only had time to test Apple Maps on wireless Carplay quickly. Both Waze and Maps worked on AA at least however. I only recently changed to iOS so I’m absolutely sure I changed no settings to get it working.

(Right now it show’s the pin icon because I’m on a parking lot, directional icons and distances are showing when enroute)

Thx for posting the photo ! I don’t think that works with Google maps or Waze - I have tried both driving not just ignition on. I’ll try Apple Maps and see if I can replicate.

But my go to is Waze so I’ll live without the directions there and just look at the main screen.

Can confirm, does not work with Google Maps or Waze via Car Play, does work via AA.
Honestly, I'm never looking at the arrows in the driver's dash, a quick glimpse at the center screen gives so much more contextual information..

Had a read of this thread so thought i'd give it a go too - for me i get the turn signals in the dash with Google Maps pic below, ( via carplay) and the Lotus Nav. Nothing with Waze. ( Disclaimer passenger lent over and took the pic ;-)

Help please with sat nav I put a random destination and pressed the home icon ( somewhere in the town where I live just to get me home from where I picked the car up from new, my first drive I was to inpatient to get going) now I can’t figure out how to stop the guidance or change my home location typical bloke I just pressed buttons and thought that will do just to get me on my way and I’ll figure it out later but I’ve gone through the menus but no joy so far.
I don’t want to ask the wife to have a look or I won’t hear the end of it 🤪🙄
I’ve stopped the guidance but still can’t figure out how to change my home destination

Here is what the infotainment handbook says about that.

Has anybody used the Sygic navigation app with Android Auto, looking at the spec it has speed limit info, current speed, and also dashcam features.

It has all of that (premium+ subscription version but not expensive) on iOS for sure as I have it (ad monthly free offline map updates as well, so it's not mobile-signal dependent), and this page suggests it's the same on Android :
