Cool but this is not using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto and mirroring your apps. It’s just using your phone wifi or data. You still need to install or login to the apps which are separate on this device. Something to consider. Thanks for the vid.

Hi, Android Auto does not work on 2018 eclass with ntg 5.5 audio 20 12.3" screen. The car has the phone icon USB in the centre consul. Any ideas to get it working. I asked the local dealer and he said Android Auto was not installed but didn't seem too interested. I have checked the connection menu on the screen and it does not show android auto. And I checked mercedes aps and nothing their either. My phone has c connection. The reason I want android auto is that the map is outdated and the dealer said a new card is about 400.
Hi could you shed some light on this? When my digi dash boots on it automatically boots up android auto but turns wifi connection off when doing so.
