CARPLAY & ANDROID AUTO
With Apple CarPlay and Android Auto systems from RadioMasters you can safely use the capabilities of Apple and Android while driving a car
What is Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Apple CarPlay was released in 2014 and Android Auto in 2015. Both systems display basic smartphone functions on the car’s multimedia screen.
This is exactly what the driver needs while driving: handsfree voice calls, music player, navigation maps and incoming messages. In addition, having a smart system is significantly different from connecting an analog phone to a car – in fact, you fully control your smartphone using the buttons on the steering wheel, without being distracted from the road.
A multimedia system with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto is an excellent opportunity to quickly synchronise your smartphone with the car. This way you can either leave your phone in the holder or put it away so you don’t have to be distracted from the road.
Benefits of installing Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Easy to use. No need to take your phone from your pocket or bag to connect;
- Calls, SMS, contact list – everything is displayed on the main screen of the head unit;
- Installing applications from the AppStore;
- Installing applications from Google Play Market;
- You can control audio streaming applications from your phone: Spotify, Apple Music, Google Music and much more;
- Ability to use navigation applications from your phone directly on the screen за your factory radio.
Key Features of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Apple CarPlay. Connecting an iOS device via Wi-Fi without a cable;

How Android Auto differs from Apple CarPlay
In general, this system, like Apple CarPlay, has a standard set of functions.
Among them:
- hands free, linked to the car’s multimedia system;
- the ability to receive calls and SMS using voice commands, and independently call your contacts;
- synchronization with popular instant messengers (Telegram, Viber, WhatsApp), allowing you to dictate and listen to SMS;
- support for maps, even in offline mode (including voice navigators);
- the ability to display only useful applications on the taskbar;
- listen to your favourite music, podcasts, audio books, plays, set up a radio.
But before you buy and install carplay system such as Android Auto or Apple CarPlay you should find out whether your smartphone can support this system.To do this, you need to contact Android support, where the makes and models of compatible cars will be listed.
With Apple CarPlay this problem almost does not exist, because all modern models of phones and tablets can connect.
Installing Android Auto in your car and connecting it to your multimedia device so that the overall system works correctly can be difficult – this is why you should contact the experts at RadioMasters Dublin. We are able to complete all the work in a few hours leaving no “traces” behind.
We provide a lifetime guarantee for the work done so the installation of Apple CarPlay of Andriod Auto will be safe.
ExcellentBased on 75 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Roberto PedroGot a reverse camera fitted today. Absolutely top service from the team at radio master. Very professional, top quality customer service. Would highly recommend.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Stephen QuinnRecently while restoring my 90s Mazda MX5, I needed to repace the old, basic, barely working touchscreen stereo and most (4) of the non working (factory) speakers. I was nearby and saw Radio Masters was the highest rated place for stereo replacements so I phoned and was told to drop in and they'd be able to advise me and get me an appointment for the install. When I got there, there wasn't many options for my car (due to the car age/type/size, no fault of Radio Masters) so I got a nice small Android Auto head unit and a JBL speaker package (4 speakers total, 2 in each door). They had a cancellation that morning so they installed it for me there and then. Took about 3 hours and they even made sure the existing working speakers in the headrests were compatible. Now I can actually hear the music playing while on the motorway! I've handed out a few of their business cards to people in work for recommendations too.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Daniel-Ioan NăstaseRecommendTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Simon PierseReally well organised and professional service, the tech installed it and then a young lad with detailed knowledge of the system shows you how to go through it, worth talking to him even if your familiar with android devices.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.TadExcellent service from the lads impressed thanks again were hapoy with reverse camera👍👍👍Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Jozsef RechI got appointment for 2pm.

The original stereo had a Japanese interface, making it difficult to use, and some features like radio and navigation didn't work in Ireland. The specialists at Radio Masters did an excellent job installing a new stereo, and now everything works perfectly. We're very satisfied with their work and professionalism! Highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality service and car electronics installation. Недавно обратились в мастерскую Radio Masters для замены автомагнитолы на нашем Toyota Prius Alpha, который был привезен из Японии. В старой магнитоле был японский интерфейс, что создавало неудобства, и некоторые функции, такие как радио и навигация, не работали в Ирландии. Специалисты Radio Masters отлично справились с задачей, установили новую магнитолу, и теперь у нас все работает без проблем. Мы очень довольны их работой и профессионализмом! Рекомендуем всем, кто ищет качественное обслуживание и установку электроники в автомобиле. К тому же, если кому-то актуально, они говорят на русском и украинском языках, что тоже очень удобно.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Yogeshwaran GovindarajanThey did a great job installing CarPlay unit in my VW Golf in short notice.
