Retrofit kit Audi Smartphone Interface / Apple CarPlay for Audi Q3 F3
Upgrade your
Audi Q3 F3 with Apple CarPlay via the original Audi Smartphone Interface professionally and bring your vehicle up to date with the latest technology. Many Audi Q3 models come from the factory with only a USB port and an AUX-IN input. The USB connection is usually limited to charging or, at best, music playback via USB stick – modern smartphone integration is not possible.
With this
original Audi retrofit kit for Audi Q3 F3, you can activate Apple CarPlay directly via the factory MMI system. Your smartphone is fully integrated into the multimedia system and operated via the MMI controller and vehicle buttons – exactly like factory-installed.
After installing this retrofit kit, you will have access to the following functions, among others:
- Easy connection of your smartphone to the multimedia system of your Audi Q3 F3 via USB
- Full control via the vehicle buttons on the center console and the MMI controller
- Track forward / backward control via the multifunction steering wheel
- Full access to your music library and streaming apps with track display in the MMI
- Use modern navigation such as Google Maps directly on the Audi display
- Full audio output via the vehicle speakers (navigation, calls, music)
- Voice control via your smartphone (e.g. Siri)
- OEM integration without additional displays or visible modules
For example, the following apps are supported:
- Apple Music
- Amazon Music
- Google Play Music
- Audible
- Spotify
- Podcasts
- Google Maps Navigation
- TomTom Navigation
- WhatsApp – send/listen to messages via voice
- Calendar app – display your appointments in the vehicle screen
