How to operate the head unit with Android Auto
Posted: Fri Nov 09, 2018 12:13 pm
Hi together,
I recently bought a Pumpkin android radio for a Volkswagen (Android 8.0). My intend is to use it in combination with my mobile and android auto via Bluetooth. Hence, I also bought the autoplay unit.
Well, if I connect my mobile via the USB cable, I'm asked to install Car life, an app which is only available in Chinese language. Android auto does not show up on the radio screen.
I guess I'm doing something terribly wrong, but I don't understand how to see the android auto app on the radio.
Does anyone know how to do this the right way?
Kind regards,
Martin
