Abstract:
A mapping between controls of the head unit of a vehicle and functions of a navigation service application running on a portable device is received. Subsequently, an indication that one of the controls has been actuated is received via a communication link between the portable device and the head unit. A function is selected from among the functions of the navigation service application in accordance with the received mapping and the received indication. The selected function of the navigation software application then is executed. In this manner, the navigation service application is safely and efficiently controlled via the head unit.

Claim (Index 16):
A method for controlling navigation service applications via head units of vehicles, the method comprising:\n communicatively coupling a portable device and a head unit of a vehicle via a short-range communication link; generating a mapping between a plurality of controls of the head unit and a plurality of functions of a navigation service application executing on the portable device to utilize the plurality of controls of the head unit as an external input device of the portable device, including receiving, for each of a plurality of controls actuated at the head unit, a selection of a respective one of the plurality of functions of the navigation service application; storing the generated mapping at the head unit or the portable device; subsequently to generating the mapping, detecting that one of the plurality of controls is actuated at the head unit; selecting a function from among the plurality of functions of the navigation service application corresponding to the actuated control, in accordance with the created mapping; and executing, by one or more processors of the portable device, the selected function of the navigation service application.
