The head unit I have is a standard vw product and I know it supports this as I have another app called camera alert which allows me to select sound to fade when a warning is played.

I hope it is possible ? I am more than willing to be a beta tester for this if that helps ?

It should be possible. I do a lot of books on tape. (aubible.com). When WAZE has an alert it mutes my book for the alert.

Yep that's 2 apps that do this functionality so I guess it's just a matter of time for the development team to add.

Idea has been forwarded, we will look into that. Thanks!

device setup should be added so that I can set a highway and city mode. I carry two flash drives and load a flash for each one. It would also be nice to lock out false readings with gps location.

Any word on when Android app will be released? Just got a new Nexus 5 and would like to do this right with the bluetooth module but with an app for Android. Not an iPhone guy.

I don't believe there is an official date, but AL has targeted some higher priority items to accomplish first. So I suspect it will still be a while. I ended up buying an iPod Gen5 to run mine.

Okay, thanks. What does an iPod Gen 5 cost? May pick one up on e-bay. BTW, love your AL P setup in your car!

Hey Tom
What are some of the new features we have to look forward to in this release? Also if someone does run it prior to updateFW what will happen?
