2022-2023 Hyundai Tucson Media Screen | Setting up Android Auto, Apple Car Play and more

[@gentleb]

I just want to thank you for going over the 8" infotainment. Apparently all other KZbin reviewers think people only buy the limited trim.

[@CarsWithSteve]

You're welcome! I like to change between the larger and smaller screens in the videos to show people what's available so it's great to hear that people find it helpful

[@Dancer810]

The reason why the higher trims with the 10.25" infotainment screen have wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is due to the navigation feature. Since the lower trims don't have navigation, they can have wireless connection. My local Hyundai dealership told me.

[@CarsWithSteve]

That's an excuse and not a reason. A number of manufacturers have wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay along with factory navigation. Your dealer is trying to feed you nonsense lol

[@gerryboyer3234]

These videos are very helpful and the vehicle manual is not. Can I set the 'radio' screen as the default screen when I start my 2023 Santa Cruz Preferred?

[@keithlewandowski5293]

Hello Steve. Great video! I have an issue where my phone is connected through Android Auto and when I receive a text there is no notification/pop up on the display? Do you know if there is a setting to have a notification/pop up so I can see I received a text?

[@CarsWithSteve]

Thanks Keith, appreciate that! Hmm if you're hooked up through AA/CarPlay or bluetooth there should be an incoming notification. Launch into your Android Auto settings on your phone and scroll down to notifications to make sure Conversations and Conversation Chime are turned on

[@LenHuston]

Great video!! Is there a way to put a family picture on the screen of a 2023 Tucson Preferred

[@CarsWithSteve]

Thanks Len! Wish there was.. no options to really customize the screen yet

[@stevensugarman5183]

Steve, an absolutely great video. Wish I had the transcript! For an older guy to digest so much in such a short time, it's mighty tough, even with pause and starts. My one question is I can't seem to find how to change or rearrange the icons (4) displayed at the bottom of the homescreen as shown at 15:07 in your video. Also, even with Android successfully paired, I can't figure out how to get all the icons on my phone to project to the screen. For example I can only have google maps and want it to switch to waze. Thanks for any help!

[@CarsWithSteve]

Thanks Steven, appreciate that! Try this for transcripts.. login to your KZbin account on a desktop computer. Just below the video screen you'll see a button with 3 little dots "..." Press that and you should see a Show Transcript button You can check to see what buttons are adjustable by doing a longer press and hold... As in hold for at least 3 seconds. If it starts to follow your finger than it can be moved around. Unfortunately not all android apps are compatible with Android Auto and waze is one of them. You can only use Waze with Apple devices

[@salvatorelanasa794]

Can I have just the radion amd apply maps on my display without apple car play?

[@CarsWithSteve]

You need to be connected to CarPlay for Apple Maps to work but you can run both the radio and Apple Maps at the same time.. 1. Start Apple CarPlay and launch maps. Find your end destination 2. Press the radio button on the side of the screen and tune to the station that you want 3. Hop back into CarPlay and they should both be running

[@salvatorelanasa794]

@@CarsWithSteve Thanks Steve. See the attached picture. I only want the radio and Apple Maps to show, not Apple CarPlay. Is this possible? Thanks for your help.

[@CarsWithSteve]

Ah, unfortunately not. You need to be on the CarPlay screen for any phone map apps to work

[@kimsalzillo4722]

HI.. new owner here when I have the navigation on, I can't listen to FM / AM, it switches to my media player. Anyway to change that?

[@CarsWithSteve]

Is that navigation through Android Auto or Apple CarPlay? If so, the fix is: 1. Connect to AA or CarPlay and launch navigation 2. Press the Radio button on the left side of the screen and scroll to the station that you want 3. Relaunch AA or CarPlay and factory navigation and radio should work

[@meganrudock9587]

How do I get the Home Screen to show my maps from CarPlay AND the radio/audio? Currently the widget just shows the option to go to CarPlay rather than mirroring what’s in CarPlay.

[@CarsWithSteve]

There's surprisingly no way to add or customize widgets through the screen.. so the default view that you see is the only option

[@brendaalderman7139]

Can you add programs to the media screen?

[@CarsWithSteve]

I wish! If you've hooked up through Android Auto or Apple CarPlay you'd be able to use available apps that way

[@getmadhavan]

Does the android auto in the 8 inch screen let you skip tracks using steering controls or using the touch screen when you listen to youtube (Not youtube music)?

[@constantinosvavoulis9290]

I have a Huawei phone can i connect to my tuscon throught wi-fi ?

[@CarsWithSteve]

Connecting to wireless Android Auto is going to depend on the screen that you have. As long as you have Android Auto installed on your phone, connecting it to bluetooth and then if you have wireless it will prompt you automatically. If that prompt doesn't come up then you only have the option for a wired connection

[@abcde57677]

How do I know that Android Auto supports wireless connection? I paired it but it does not work wirelessly with the phone. Please help.

[@johnc8721]

do you know if i can have android auto map running and play FM radio at same time (i have 2024 tucson PHEV limited so it is WIRED android auto)

[@CarsWithSteve]

You can! There's a weird workaround to do it: 1. Launch Android Auto or Apple CarPlay and bring up the map, with your destination set up 2. Press the hard button near the screen to jump into your audio and choose the source you want to play 3. Jump back into AA or CarPlay and the music should continue playing

[@lazarepshtein3235]

Hi, I have Hyundai Hybrid 2023, radio stops completely if Android Car navigation is on display. Is there any setting should be changed to have navigation and radio audio?

[@CarsWithSteve]

Hey Lazar! Yes there's a way to fix.. 1. Launch into Android Auto nav (happens in CarPlay too) 2. Then press the media hard button on the side of the screen and pull up the audio source/channel you want to listen to 3. Launch back into Android Auto or CarPlay and into navigation. Radio should still be playing!

[@snaffy41]

Clearest explanation I have seen...great video

[@CarsWithSteve]

Thank you!

[@2020-w7v]

My tucson hybrid 2023, keeps the notification with bad bips lol even after disable rear belts alert, and after shutting the car off and start it again every setting i have done changed to default, please help me😂😅

[@CarsWithSteve]

That's a weird one 🤔 If it's disabled you shouldn't be running into that problem but certain settings reset after the car is restarted. Have you set up a user profile yet? If not, set that up and then save all settings. Select your profile when you get in to see if they've saved and if they haven't book it in for service

[@alexajaramillo8717]

what is the button under the volume button, does it have a purpose?

[@AClark-qn2kh]

I don’t see a button under the volume. Mine has a small hole that I thought could be a microphone but the manual says the only mic is above you.

[@rudianger123]

Using Android Auto, how do you split screen to show both Google Maps and whatever radio/XM station you are playing? Can't for the life of me figure it out.

[@CarsWithSteve]

Haha it's such a weird process. 1. Launch Android Auto and pull up Google Maps. 2. Press the Radio button on the side of the screen and select the station you want to listen to 3. Launch back into Android Auto That should have Google maps up while the radio is running!

[@rudianger123]

@@CarsWithSteve I appreciate that! Thank you! Is there a way to split the screen, tho so one sees both what is playing on radio and maps?

[@CarsWithSteve]

@@rudianger123 It should default to a split screen view on Android Auto. On the right side there should be Up/Down arrows, scroll through until you see the radio!

[@rudianger123]

Unfortunately, it does not default to a split screen...and there are no buttons to make it go split. :-(

[@CarsWithSteve]

@@rudianger123 facepalm on my part. The screens on lower trims (like the one in this video) don't have the split ability! So there wouldn't be a way to show a split screen

[@tonyn152]

Hi, I have a 2022 Tucson. Is there a way to use Waze navigation in Android Auto and also be able to listen to music (either through another AA app or the car's XM. or radio)? I can't get it to work for me. One will cancel the other. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong? Just want to listen to music while using the Waze in Android Auto, which seems like a basic thing to do. Thanks for the great, informative video.

[@CarsWithSteve]

Hey Tony! Yes there is.. it's a weird way to do it though 1. Launch into CarPlay or AA and open your map application 2. Press the "Radio" hot key button on the outside of the media screen 3. Tune to the station you want 4. Launch back into CarPlay or AA

[@danmarkiewicz3697]

Sweet! Nicely done @Cars With Steve. I see below there are some differences between the 10.25" and the 8". Can you please confirm that the 10.25" does indeed have wireless Android Auto? Thanks again.

[@CarsWithSteve]

Thanks Dan! The 8" screen is going to be wireless while the 10.25" is only going to be wired for both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay

[@Jasonolus]

One more question, do You have standard ( 6 speaker ) audio or Bose ( 8 speakers ) ? And if its standard, does sound is really bad?

[@CarsWithSteve]

The Preferred trim in this one was the 6 speaker system. The Bose will definitely sound better but the base 6 still offers good sound. I normally drop the treble a bit and crank the bass for a deeper sound

[@anacarolinacopolecchiacarv1625]

obrigada irmão, salvou!!!!!!!!! TMJ

[@CarsWithSteve]

De nada!

[@Boomerette]

We're picking up our Hybrid SEL Convenience car tomorrow but I'm already shocked to find out that it doesn't have navigation! EVERY car we've owned since 2011 has nav! Am I correct in assuming that if I somehow manage to use AppleMaps via Apple CarPlay but then want to use my paired phone as a phone I can't have AppleMaps up on the screen? And that Siri won't work? What's this about having to disconnect and then reconnect CarPlay every time we re-start the car? My husband (who will be driving this car, as I have my own) has never learned to use a nav system but says he'll be fine as long as there's the onscreen compass--but does the SEL even HAVE a compass? Since there's no CD player nor Aux-In jack, if we plug a portable USB CD player into the USB data port do we have to sacrifice Bluetooth? You talked so fast that old farts like us (71 & 72) can barely keep up! Between all this and the fact that we had to order an aftermarket spare tire (the "Mobility Kit" sealant is useless on the kind of flat tires we get from Chicago potholes), we're having SERIOUS buyers' remorse. HELP!!!!

[@CarsWithSteve]

No need for the buyers remorse, there are still a ton of great things you can do with the ride! You're right.. Apple maps, Google Maps and Waze can all be used through the media screen since yours won't have factory navigation. When Apple CarPlay is connected you can make phone calls while maps are still up. There's a voice command button on the steering wheel, where if you press and hold it will activate Siri for you to say "call John, call bob etc" or you can switch out of the map, select your phone through CarPlay and then select the contact to call I don't believe the Tucson has an on screen compass unfortunately. If you're connecting a USB device you can still use bluetooth so you'd be able to have your phone connected while listening to a CD/MP3 player over USB. For the video speed, try changing the playback speed to 0.75x instead. It'll slow things down and make it easier to follow!

Can you keep your android connected to the car but still delete messages app

[@CarsWithSteve]

So you wouldn't want to have your phone messages pop up when you're connected to Android Auto?

[@tanyashapso3013]

What i found annoying and i couldn't find if it's adjustable, android, whem i'm using waze with my phhone connected, i can't listen to music by Disc on key. Second, while getting alerts, wazwle or car warnings, music is silenced totaly, not volumes dowen. Any solution for that?

[@CarsWithSteve]

The music playback issue with this screen has a workaround.. 1. Launch Android Auto or Apple CarPlay and launch Waze 2. Press the hard button near the screen to jump into your audio and choose the source you want to play 3. Jump back into AA or CarPlay and the music should continue playing As for the alerts, there are some settings when you get into audio to change that out. It's covered around the 3:00 mark of the video with Driving Safety Priority

[@Jasonolus]

So Android Auto is full screen, right? I hope its not only in US version.

[@CarsWithSteve]

Would technically be full screen in the Tucson. I'm in Canada but I believe the tech carries forward in the Tucson worldwide

[@Jasonolus]

@@CarsWithSteve Thx for answering. Best Regards from Poland

[@CarsWithSteve]

@@Jasonolus You're welcome!

[@kersplat12785]

I'm confused. I've tried over and over again to setup android auto on the Premium trim and it just doesn't work. All other BT functions work fine. Audio, phone calls, etc. But android Auto does not sync/connect/work/etc. I've pored through the menus a dozen times. I've looked through the manual and it just doesn't work.

[@CarsWithSteve]

Ah that’s the issue. The higher trims of the vehicle are wired android auto and Apple CarPlay! You need to connect it via USB

[@yidanchai3263]

does anybody know where to find the GPS MAP? i cant find it

[@CarsWithSteve]

Depends on the trim level of the vehicle you’re in. The map doesn’t come standard. If your screen has a hard button that says Nav then you have factory navigation

[@harpreetthind]

Does the car come with built-in hotspot what’s the Wi-Fi for thanks

[@CarsWithSteve]

No option for a hotspot in Hyundai vehicles just yet. Wifi is when you're at home or connected through your cellphone to download available updates

[@terrysardella9000]

I'm having a problem getting the phone to work through the speakers with android auto.

[@CarsWithSteve]

Have you tried turning up the volume on your phone? If it's low there than it'll be a challenge to hear it!

[@harpreetthind]

Great video

[@CarsWithSteve]

Thanks!

[@badthe2527]

Hi do you have to download an app on your android phone to connect?

[@CarsWithSteve]

No extra apps would be needed to connect! If you're connecting over bluetooth it will just connect after following the directions. Android phones should already have Android Auto installed and Apple devices come with CarPlay as well

[@AClark-qn2kh]

Android auto is pre installed on Android 10 and up. Below that you need to install it from the Play store. Older devices may not support phone projection.

[@CarsWithSteve]

@@AClark-qn2kh Thanks for clarifying that! I'll make sure to mention AA availability in future videos

[@robertblack7610]

slightly different from 10.25"

[@CarsWithSteve]

Good to know, I haven't come across that larger screen in a Tucson yet. I wish wireless CarPlay/Android Auto were standard across the whole lineup though

[@Jasonolus]

@@CarsWithSteve Its a reason i ordered 8" version.

[@CarsWithSteve]

@@Jasonolus Smart!

[@rosinamaxwell8035]

I can't hear anything from the cell phone

[@CarsWithSteve]

Are you trying to make phone calls or listen to music over bluetooth? Either way, make sure that the car audio and your phone audio are turned up You can control individual volumes in the system settings in the media screen as well so make sure that your phone audio is turned up there!

[@jesusazul]

I want to watch youtube videos on my screen 🤔

[@CarsWithSteve]

No factory option for that unfortunately

[@tomstradinger5958]

Talks to fast, moves to fast also.

[@CarsWithSteve]

There are people that watch at 2x speed with no issues.. Change the playback speed to something that’s easier to follow. Press the settings icon and change the playback speed to 0.75x or slower if needed

[@joelimo449]

I'm Sorry , but Very confusing and very vague instructions.
