2014-2019 Toyota 4Runner | Wired Apple CarPlay & Android Auto | Demonstration Video

[@kelsearuch1909]

Will text messages pop up on screen when in Apple car play?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes, text messages will pop up on screen when in Carplay mode

[@oladejikoledade6492]

Can I use a wireless dongle instead of the USB type c cable for the phone connection.

[@BeatSonicUS]

Possible but haven’t confirmed

[@oladejikoledade6492]

@@BeatSonicUS thank you for responding.

[@nicholashanson7795]

Can you use pandora on the apple car play box pro?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes you can

[@thepetesmith]

Do I have to do that aux double tap dance every time?

[@BeatSonicUS]

We changed it to long press the steering wheel Hangup button

[@cohibamike]

Will the the optional USB harness support quick charge? If so, can you still use it to play music from the USB when not using CarPlay or AA?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes, the Optional USB harness will support quick charge. Unfortunately you will lose the ability to play music from USB when not using CarPlay or AA mode

[@vinbia]

Do you have to repeat the process every time you start the car? Meaning, press Aux, press power 2x, plug in phone. Or, will it automatically go to CarPlay once you plug in your phone?

[@BeatSonicUS]

If you were in aux before you turned off the car when you reboot the car will still be in aux. you just need to plug in the phone and double click the power button. Takes 3 seconds

[@vinbia]

3 seconds huh..? nonetheless, a minor annoyance for some.

[@BeatSonicUS]

Any oem equipped carplay systems will need steps taken to access the app via their radio.

[@drsus0]

All you need now is to have them in stock...seems that every time i get an email that they’re back in stock I’m 1 minute too late to buy the only one you made. From the looks of the comments you ve could’ve sold a ton by now.

[@BeatSonicUS]

Nic Restrepo we apologize for the inconvenience. We should have another large batch coming in soon

[@drsus0]

Beat-Sonic good to know. It’s not inconvenient to me...just less business for you. 4runners suffer from the worst tech package on any car being sold today, so things like CarPlay are in the highest demand for this truck. You come up with things like 360 camera, rear and front park assist, push button start, keyless entry etc and youll be sitting on a gold mine because every 4Runner owner would love to have these add ons that are only avail on the limited trim, which no ones buys because you have to give up a lot of the off road gizmos and trim for it

[@BeatSonicUS]

Nic Restrepo noted thank you for sharing all the useful information that we can present to our new products development team

[@jamesbergis9223]

is this compatible with all 5th Gen 4runners?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Only compatible with all 2014-2019 4Runner models

[@lwriv7]

Is there a way to use GPS on Carplay with this while simultaneously listening to your car radio? Also, is it still expected to be back in stock November 2020?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes it is possible but you will not be able to hear the turn by turn direction voice

[@spencerbayha1686]

These CarPlay module videos from all the different players are irritating click bait because they lack the ability to purchase and don’t offer pricing. The Korean websites seem to place the price point at $600 if I did my conversion correctly.... may as well but a full replacement unit.

[@BeatSonicUS]

No click bait scheme here. Real product coming soon. There are little details that still need fixing that we are working on before the full release.

[@Maximouchka]

@@BeatSonicUS The release of your product seems to be postponed over and over again. I am really interested but starting to wonder if this is a serious product

[@c0011j]

Got something like this on my 2018 Camry. Would be nice if the price point was under $200. At this cost you might as well replace the head unit with a wireless capable Android Auto or Carplay aftermarket head unit.

[@nirpalmissan1311]

When will this be available for sale?

[@BeatSonicUS]

in about 2 weeks! If you haven't already, please email us to be on the waiting list: [e-mail]

[@jone7724]

Are there any plans to re-stock this? If so when?

[@BeatSonicUS]

We are adding a few here and there. Please make sure to sign up for stock alert on our website

[@chadical3151]

Have you ever had the Aux input not show up as an option after installing the beat-sonic unit?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Never

[@45babiilove]

I don’t have the aux is grey out

[@jonathang8750]

@@45babiilovesame, did you fix it?

[@ericlbarton01]

Just discovered this. When is it back in stock and when is it going to be wireless? Also, if it's not wireless now, can we upgrade wireless once we buy this one?

[@BeatSonicUS]

This will be in stock at the end of the month. We will release a wireless upgrade kit around the end of next year.

[@jakeryan6293]

will this work on a 2013 4runner sr5 premium? screen looks like this but runs a different, but similar program.

[@BeatSonicUS]

Unfortunately this is only compatible with 2014-2019. 2013 models radio consists of different wiring harness

[@slappyhour9am977]

what is average installation cost of this product for a 2016 Toyota Avalon XLE. Also I think you awesome, I have been looking at doing this for a while now.

[@BeatSonicUS]

Installation cost can vary from $100 to $500 depending on your location. I suggest installing it yourself. It’s not too difficult

[@dariodiaz5379]

Does carplay still work if you unplug your phone and also does this work with the basic 2014 sr5 oem screen

[@BeatSonicUS]

Carplay will not work when you unplug your phone. It will work with the basic 2014 SR5 OEM Screen

[@karlschultz9813]

Does this retain the steering wheel controls for the head unit?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes, only volume controls. For seek and other menu options you will need to use the radio touchscreen.

[@MrHippie809]

Do you have a similar kit for 2015-2017 Camry too.?

[@BeatSonicUS]

The same kit is compatible with 2015-2017 Camry as well

[@Unplugged704]

What did you install?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Carplay and Android auto interface

[@jofartknocker]

Can you listen to radio while using Google maps?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes, with Carplay approved radio application like Tune in Radio

[@TwistedJake]

Need a tester? I'd love to see how this works on my 2018 TRD.

[@BeatSonicUS]

Already tested and verified to work :) thank you for your offer

[@TwistedJake]

@@BeatSonicUS Want us to double check? ROFL.

[@PapaJutty]

If you are in Android Auto / Carplay mode and put it into reverse will the screen go to the camera automatically? Also does this support a second camera?

[@BeatSonicUS]

JWM816 yes from AA/Carplay mode when you put your car into revere gear it will go to the backup camera automatically. This does not support a second camera

[@velvetbrown850]

When will this be back in stock? 😩

[@BeatSonicUS]

Very soon. People in our waiting list will have priority. Please email us to be on the list: [e-mail]

[@blackthebanner]

How is the sound quality of the mic when on calls versus the stock mic? Would I just use the original USB port in my phone to switch to the regular wired option on OEM side if wanted to use the other mic say if it’s better or is the other mic disabled with this setup?

[@BeatSonicUS]

We have it set so your calls will route to the car’s Bluetooth to retain the normal call quality you are used to. Yes you can either use the original USB port or have a separate usb extension cable. Our new kit uses the factory mic

[@blackthebanner]

@@BeatSonicUS that’s awesome my last question is will this void the warranty /extended warranty through Toyota? I have an 18’ with no need to replace for an OEM CarPlay system but I got the warranty until 125K car is a baby still

[@BeatSonicUS]

@@blackthebanner this won’t void the warranty as long as it is installed correctly

[@Trezent69]

TOOOO EXPENSIVE!

[@BeatSonicUS]

And worth it :)

[@paulo-gouveia]

Will it work on a Toyota Avalon 2016 Limited?

[@BeatSonicUS]

Paulo Gouveia yes this is compatible with 2016 Toyota Avalon Limited. It’s currently on sale at beatsonicusa.com

[@marcuslam621]

Will the Apple CarPlay kit for Lexus ever launch? www.beatsonicusa.com/blog/?p=48

[@BeatSonicUS]

Yes it's coming about 2 months

[@Largemouth07]

If you want us to buy it then keep it in stock. Not buying.

[@BeatSonicUS]

It’s not for everyone. Thumbs up for keeping it stock.

[@roar-films]

For those wondering this is $649 on their website...

[@BeatSonicUS]

Thanks!

[@roar-films]

@@BeatSonicUS honest question? Why so much? I can buy a brand new unit with bigger display that comes with CarPlay. Or i can buy a $100 dongle with 4,000 reviews off Amazon. Like why is this better?

[@kkennyc]

Yikes it’s out of stock !

[@BeatSonicUS]

Sorry! Will be back soon!

[@juanestebandiaz8582]

¿Will this work on a Toyota 4Runner 2016 SR5?

Hi, do you know if is possible to use a USB flash drive (64gb) and listen music with this device in my 4runner 2014.??
