Sorry still a little new to the BMW navigation. So going threw some growing pains 
BMW navi is a little harder to use than some of the other cars I had.

For me (I have voice recognition) I just hit the VR button and say "Cancel guidance". Works like a champ. Beyond that I haven't really found a good or easy way to cancel it either.

I just need to remember the correct words in this case "Cancel guidance"

I don't think "cancel guidance" works, at least it doesn't for me. I think you need to say "stop guidance". When I say "cancel guidance" the system thinks I'm simply trying to cancel the current command.

"Guidance Off" works for me everytime.

I'd rather use my phone, easier, voice input, Traffic updates, and always has the latest version. But it is always good to have a backup or when the wife drives the car.
