this is how you use the system in your car (ADV)

Is your car no longer the youngest, but do you still want to navigate easily, send messages on the go and play music via CarPlay? Then a Pioneer infotainment system is a smart choice.

CarPlay on your iPhone

Apple has an operating system that is specially made for infotainment systems in your car: CarPlay. It is very simple to use. Connect your iPhone to a device that can handle CarPlay and you can get started right away. The touchscreen shows the available apps, such as Apple Music, WhatsApp and of course Maps. This allows you to easily navigate to your destination.

A big advantage of CarPlay is that all apps just run on your iPhone. You can therefore easily update them and do not suffer from outdated floor plans, for example. You also save a lot of time and money because you do not have to visit the dealer for updates.

The app icons in Apple CarPlay are also a lot bigger than on your iPhone. This way you can easily tap them without taking your eyes off the road. That is of course a safe idea. In addition, you can operate the system with Siri. Your voice is therefore sufficient to provide an address or to play a song.

Do you like CarPlay, but is your older car still working fine? With a Pioneer infotainment system, you can give your car a technological facelift. It does not matter whether your car took its first ride 5 or 25 years ago. Almost any vehicle is suitable for Pioneer’s systems. You only need space to build in a car radio.

Pioneer offers several of these systems, each of which has its own unique features. The best-selling model in the Netherlands is the Pioneer SPH-DA250DAB. That is easy to explain. The beautiful 6.8 inch touchscreen is a perfect match for CarPlay. You simply play music via Apple Music or Spotify and check your WhatsApp messages quickly and safely. In addition, the large screen is of course very suitable for navigation.

In addition to support for Apple CarPlay, the Pioneer SPH-DA250DAB has even more advanced functions on board. How about DAB +, for example? That is a very high quality digital radio tuner. Your favorite stations have never sounded better.

Bluetooth should of course also not be missing. Playing music wirelessly or making a call is therefore very easy. Do you want to see what is happening around your car? You can connect both a reversing camera and a front-facing lens to the Pioneer SPH-DA250DAB. That way you always have a few extra eyes.

A nice touch is that Pioneer’s infotainment systems also support Android Auto. That is Google’s version of Apple CarPlay. So if you ever buy an Android smartphone, you don’t have to buy a new player. You can even easily switch between both operating systems. That is of course also useful if your partner has an Android phone.

Apps for CarPlay

Apple CarPlay offers many different apps. The most important are of course navigation apps. With CarPlay you can choose from various options. You can of course use Apple’s own Maps app, but if you prefer Google Maps, that’s possible too. In addition, the system supports Waze and Flitsmeister.

The handy thing about Flitsmeister is that users can pass on information. As a result, you will often receive a notification if you encounter a speed camera, section control or traffic jam on your route. Of course you can control all navigation apps with Siri. So you don’t have to take your eyes off the road.

Want to send a message quickly and safely? This can be done via WhatsApp or Apple’s own Messages app. You can simply dictate your message, adjust it if necessary and then send it. When you get an answer, Siri will read it to you.

Apple CarPlay is constantly evolving. More and more options are expected to be added in the coming years. Do you want to be ready for the future? Then choose the Pioneer SPH-DA250DAB!
