Android Auto, wireless, on your NBTevo unit.

- Wireless
- Full-width screen
- Works alongside CarPlay
How it works
Get in. It connects.
- 1
The car starts
Android Auto starts together with the head unit — nothing to plug in.
- 2
Your phone connects
Over the car’s Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, automatically, as you sit in the driver’s seat.
- 3
Drive
Maps on the central screen, music through the BMW speakers, turns on the HUD.
Features
Feels like it came from the factory.
Touch, iDrive and BACK
Control it with the touchscreen, the iDrive controller and the BACK button — like the native menus.
Turns on HUD & cluster
Turns, distance, street names, roundabouts and lanes on the Head-Up Display or LED cluster.
BMW sound
Music through the BMW audio system with the car’s volume controls. Navigation prompts lower the music.
Calls & voice
Phone calls and BMW voice control pause Android Auto, then hand back.
CarPlay too
Switch between Android Auto and CarPlay without restarting the head unit.
In your iDrive
Right next to Radio and USB.
Android Auto gets its own entry under Multimedia, and the CarPlay button brings it back from any menu.
