A pretty neat addition to the Premium Package trim is is a new tethered navigation system powered by the user’s compatible iPhone and data plan via the AcuraLink navigation app.
Hopefully it isn't limited to working with an iPhone and supports Android at the very least. Would be a huge mistake if it was limited in this nature.
I agree. That sentence stuck out for me, too.
Check out the linked graph:

IOS is currently at 48.3% market share, Android is at 45.45% market share. The key metric is that IOS's market share has been on average decreasing since it peaked in May 2013 while Android has been seeing steady growth since its inception in 2009.
As a android user for many years, it's always bugged me that some vehicles have catered exclusively to iPhones with their GUI, software, and even connectors.
On a different note, I LOVE that this engine and transmission combo is finally in this car. It turns it from a 'why does the ILX exist' into a 'Hmm, finally, a reason to buy an ILX over a Civic EX-L'.
