Android auto

[spartyparty]

Hi all,

So I got a new 2023.rav4 hybrid cruiser. It was manufactured in July 2023. The website says wireless android auto and so does the dealer but it doesn't work, still requires a cable. I played around with it for a few hours uninstalling, trying all different ways but no wireless.....I used  to have these issues in 2016, how on gods earth is this still happening with a brand new car...like is that it,  apple won?

I don't want a cable because it gets messy and I find it cuts in and out, did I get a dud infotainment system or android auto really doesn't work still?

G'day Andp.

Apparently, according to the RAV4 brochure on Toyota's website, wireless is only with Car Play and not Android Auto. Yeah. It sucks.

I have the Cruiser Hybrid 2024 and can confirm that AA wireless is not working, still needs the cable. I'm a bit disappointed because my phone won't fit anymore in the wireless charger tray.

Hi, same. I have a Feb 2024 Cruiser. AA needs the cable to operate. Car Play works wirelessly.

I've been tried 8 different units wireless Android Auto adapters, none of them are working. I'm very regret bought the RAV4 Crusier.
