CARPLAY2DROID-4G

Description

THE PROBLEM

Most cars that came out recently have large 2DIN displays, some are touchscreens, some not — yet car manufacturers seem to be playing it safe with regards to what is included in your dashboard’s mighty multi-feature-capable display. There are available upgrades, but many fall short of what can be. There are manufacturers that do put the bells and whistles, but at a hefty premium, are region-dependent, and are still very limited with what they can do. Cars’ factory dashboard stereos with large displays need to have better and more capable systems, including a built-in GPS.

What’s more, if you want to install an Android 9.0 headunit,  it generally requires complicated wiring know-how and/or expensive installation.

Carplay and Android Auto allow you to connect your phone to your stereo, but they are also very limiting in how  you can empower your car’s infotainment system. You also need to pair your smartphone with system so your phone is always tied down.

1. Do you want to be able to 100% free up your phone when driving?
2. Do you want the option to connect via WiFi, Bluetooth or 4G LTE?
3. Do you want to be able to stream movies from Netflix, etc?
4. Do you like the idea of emulating games in your vehicle?
5. Do you want to be able to download almost ANY APP from PlayStore?
6. Do you want to add split-screen function to your headunit?
7. Does your headunit have Carplay factory installed?
8. Do you want a plug-n-play solution?

Then ….

HOW DIFFERENT IS IT FROM AN ANDROID PHONE?
Carplay2Droid-4G is specifically designed to be used as an instant upgrade to a factory car stereo. This frees up your phone so you don’t have to share resources if you don’t want to. 

It uses its own built-in GPS system so there’s no need for a separate dashboard module.

4G CONNECTIVITY

With fast and reliable mobile network connectivity, CarPlay2Droid-4G makes high-definition videos stream smoother, allows faster app downloads, makes real-time road information when using Maps lag-free.

FULLY INDEPENDENT OF YOUR SMARTPHONE
If you’re the type who doesn’t like to keep connecting your phone each time you get in the car, CarPlay2Droid-4G is for you. No more fumbling around to find your phone in your pocket, and fiddling with it when you already need to be driving. You used to do this each and every time you get in the car, and can be a real pain sometimes, if not always. Now, with CarPlay2Droid, everything you need is already in there and setup, ready to take commands the minute you start the car. 

MAKE PHONE CALLS FROM THE CAR
CarPlay2Droid-4G is fully independent from your smartphone, use a 3G/4G SIM card on the CarPlay2Droid-4G to make phone calls right from your car’s head unit, even with apps running entirely separate from your smartphone accounts. Can’t remember where your smartphone is? Call it from the car stereo!  

WIRELESSLY INTEGRATES WITH YOUR SMARTPHONE

When you pair it with your smartphone app, be it Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, all the functionalities that come along with it are carried over to the screen, all settings and applications installed on your mobile’s car app.
What’s more, CarPlay2Droid-4G only makes use of what you need. The minute the smartphone is disconnected, all your previous settings will remain untouched. Perfect when someone else is using the car and they have their own preferences and playlists different from you.
Best of all, no additional wires.

HANDS-FREE VOICE CONTROL

CarPlay2Droid-4G has Google Assistant, so you can enjoy hands-free operation via voice commands. Say “Ok Google” to launch apps, send messages, make phone calls, play music, ask questions, enable and disable bluetooth, and a whole lot more. This makes your car feel a whole lot more like a companion.

GET SPLIT-SCREEN CONTROL

Multi-tasking does not have to be just one screen at a time.

Having 2 apps running literally side-by-side on your car’s display makes full use of the large screen that your car already has. 

It makes perfect sense. You want your map navigation always available to you even while your passenger is choosing a music playlist, or while sending a message to someone to tell them you’re on your way.

TURN YOUR CAR’S DISPLAY AS A MEDIA CENTER
When you’re not driving and waiting in the car for someone to get back from shopping, or something similar, CarPlay2Droid-4G can turn your car’s head console into a media center.
Watch movies streaming online, play a game you downloaded on it, it’s processor is powerful enough for movie playback in high resolution (up to 4K @30fps!) and play games on. Connect your game controller via Bluetooth, and even other devices like a remote.

INFOTAINMENT AT ITS BEST

Be it playing your favorite music on Youtube Music or Spotify, listening to e-books on Audible, or getting the latest scoop listening to podcasts, Carplay2Droid-4G puts the fun back into driving again. Your passengers can watch HD movies either saved on the device, or streaming from 

MORE POWER TO TOUCH

Add more control functionalities to your touchscreen or touchpad, there is more to just playing music and navigation. Get additional features out of your steering-wheel buttons than just next-song/previous song, just press a button to talk to your Google Assistant to ask anything while driving.

BUILT-IN GPS ANTENNA 

Like we said, no more additional wires and cables. No unsightly separate GPS module on the dashboard. Get GPS working for your navigation apps, right out of the box. All you need to do is just install CarPlay2Droid-4G in the car.
Be it using Google Maps, or utilizing the crowd-sourced real-time road information using Waze, CarPlay2Droid-4G has you covered.

SMALL, ELEGANT DESIGN
It is unobtrusively small and thin enough that you’d barely notice it there. Cp2Droid keeps your car’s interior looking the same way. Or put it in your pocket when you move to another car to bring everything with you.

INSTALLATION IS AN ABSOLUTE BREEZE

Installing CarPlay2Droid-4G is as simple as plug-and-play: Everything works in under a minute. No rocket-science degree required.

What is the difference between the two models?

(Carplay2Droid-4g vs Carplay2Droid)

They are pretty much the same, but Carplay2Droid-4g adds the following: 

1. 4GB RAM + 64GB ROM vs non-4g’s 2+32gb
2. Built-in 4G LTE + 3G WCDMA Phone calling
3. Built-in GPS Antenna vs. non-4G’s external GPS antenna
4.  Supports split-screen
5. Supports voice control 

If you don’t need 4G calling / Data, then the Carplay2Droid (non-4G) 2+32gb model is more than enough for streaming videos, etc.
