Plug&Play Smartphone Interface with Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto and MirrorLink for Audi A8 4H
The video display is shown on the entire factory monitor and the audio signal is fed into the factory multimedia system via the audio AUX input. Before placing your order, please check whether your factory multimedia system has an audio AUX input or if it can be retrofitted.
Of course, our smartphone interface supports Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto, providing a smart and safer way to use your smartphone in the car. All functions are controlled via the vehicle’s original buttons and control system. You can also use Siri and OK Google voice control through the included microphone. Everything you want to do with your smartphone while driving can be operated directly on the vehicle display using Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto. Easily access directions, send and receive messages. If your vehicle is equipped with a factory Bluetooth hands-free system, you can use it through our smartphone integration to make calls. While navigating, you can listen to your favorite music via Spotify or your preferred radio station through a radio app – and still stay focused on the road. Simply connect your smartphone to our system and you’re ready to go.
