Is it possible to have two android phones active with the vehicle at once with one doing Waze and the other streaming SiriusXM?

We don’t want to sign up for a second account t just to be able to have it in both vehicles but can play it on a phone. My wife hasthe Sirius App and account. I usually use mine for Waze.

Why not be using Waze with Android Auto, and have Sirius playing via the truck's radio? Maybe I misunderstand your situation.

Waze is running via Android Auto, I set up the trip on my phone and then it’s sent to the truck’s android auto. . We already have a Sirius account that is on our other vehicle. We do not want to pay for a second subscription for the truck but would like to stream it from my wife’s phone which has the Sirius app on it.

Can't you just sign into the sirius app on your phone using your wife's account information?

This. Sirius will play in the background while Waze is up on screen. It only runs into conflicts if you’re trying to use duplicate apps.

I keep an iPad on dash for ABRP, phone projects Waze and plays Slacker.

You should be able to run Waze and Sirius at the same time. I just got back from a trip where I had Sirius and Maps running together.

That would not be a problem since the other vehicle is not in use while we want to do this.

The OP is describing a situation where both phones (ie, wife and him) are in thetruck at the same time. So just don’t use the account when she’s not there…which would be the same case with the 2 phone system

We have a Sirius subscription for our Jeep that you can also play from a phone. I don’t want to pay for a second one. The app is on my wife’s phone not mine, I guess I should see if I can add it to mine.
