I test drove a van with the 7in radio screen, and it had the wireless android auto (AA). my phone synced up for the test drive. AA came up super fast, and was supper happy with how AA performed over my after market pioneer deck (6 yo) i have in my truck, that uses wired AA.
Was able to check out my van I ordered today, ( cant take delivery due to seat belt recall....) it has the 10in screen with nav and playing around with the stereo and could not make android auto work wirelessly.
sales guys said that AA wireless doesn't work on any of the 10in screens. only the 7in screens. and i would have to use a usb cable to make AA work...
I'm so disappointed. As a contractor / service guy, my whole day is on google calendar with all the addresses i need to go to, and AA has been awesome to nav to next job with just 2 presses. it was going to be so nice to just toss phone on the dash cubby, have it charge, and have AA auto connect wirelessly. I have no intention to ever use the stock nav app.
So now I have a van with wireless phone charging, where i will have to plug in a cable in order to use android auto.... This is so stupid. any way to make wireless android auto work on the 10in Mbux radio? for apply car play it says wired in a setting... but for AA doesn't list that it has to be wired....
software version was apilevel / ntg6 /080
