Just to see if there was a difference, today I used the phone app with OnStar to send directions to the car. It still went turn by turn, however the normal map with the Nav system was not able to be used. There was just a square image in the display screen of when the next turn was and how far and you still got the audible. Knowing that, I prefer using the one in the Navi, it's much better illustrated. It also shows the next turn in the HUD which the OnStar one does not. I guess the one with OnStar is satisfactory if you don't have the Nav system.
I am "patiently" lol, awaiting my C7 but I have a nearly identical radio in my Denali, when you send the directions to the car it comes up with an option to send to "turn by turn" or "in dash nav" what you describe above is the turn by turn, try selecting in dash nav next time, should work great...... I use it all the time, especially when the radio locks out the keyboard while im driving :-P
