Plug&Play smartphone interface with full integration
Plug&Play smartphone interface with full integration into the vehicle’s multimedia system. Please check the compatibility list to see if a solution is available for your vehicle.
The image is displayed on the full factory monitor, and the audio is fed via the audio AUX input of your factory multimedia system. Before ordering, please check whether your factory multimedia system has an audio AUX input or can be retrofitted.
Our smartphone interface is compatible with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto, providing a smart and safer way to use your smartphone in the car. Operation is handled via the vehicle’s original buttons and control systems. Of course, you can also use Siri and OK Google voice control via the included microphone. Everything you want to do with your smartphone while driving can be done directly via the vehicle display using Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto. You can easily access directions, send and receive messages.
If your car has a factory hands-free system, you can use it via our smartphone integration to make calls. While navigating, you can listen to your favorite music, for example via Spotify, or your favorite radio station via a radio app – while still staying focused on the road. Simply connect your smartphone to the USB port in our system and you’re ready to go.
Even more conveniently, you can connect your Apple iPhone wirelessly via Wi-Fi. Wireless Apple CarPlay® is available from Apple iPhone 5 onwards.
