Use Any Android Tablet as an Android Auto Car Head Unit

Do you have an old car that doesn’t have an Android Auto compatible infotainment system? Well, you’re in luck, because you can use any Android tablet as an Android Auto car head unit. To accomplish this, you’ll need to download an app called “Headunit Reloaded” that enables you to emulate Android Auto on your tablet. So follow the step-by-step guide to transform any tablet into an Android Auto Head Unit.

👉 Android Auto: play.google.com/store/apps/de...
👉 Tablet Car Mount Holder: www.amazon.com/APPS2Car-Table...

Thanks bro. Was planning to change my android head unit as it was very slow and not supporting Android Auto. Your clear instructions helped me with setting up Android auto in it.

[@ramcholan2034]

thanks for the video, is the phone hotspot need to be on all the time?

[@mvez73]

Good morning. Just to be sure you understand correctly, the cell phone connects to the tablet (by wire or wireless) and the tablet is connected by bluetooth to the radio?

[@apar7688]

What if you have afront or rear parking camera? how do you stream the camera video feed to the tablet?

[@lemedico]

A few comments mention the AA doesnt work anymore. Could you please confirm if thats really the case , and if you have any alternative apps instead

[@miltonnicolasmendozacabell743]

Thank you very much for this video, it has been very easy to understand, greetings from Spain

[@ShravanKumar-hn7kk]

Does android headunit reloaded app works with carplay please reply or make a video on carplay. Thanks

[@mudasserilyas1217]

Did you buy the head unit? It's showing me to pay around 6$ on play store. How I copy to my Changan cs75plus 2023.

[@Aman-bi3qx]

in the wireless display in tends to disconnect after sometime it wasnt smooth as needed

[@samramirez1502]

Thanks. I just followed your steps and got it working via USB method! Tested with mu Samsung Tab S8+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra combo. I just ordered an inexpensive tablet since for my daly setup.

[@samramirez1502]

Also, I just enabled the Wireless connectivity. Will now take it out on the road to test it.

[@geoffj3191]

Can you power both phone and tablet, and still connect them to each other using a cable? I guess you need to connect the audio to the car aux. I have a USB C cable that connects my phone's USB C port to the car power and audio. If I now connect that to the tablet, how do I connect the tablet to the phone, and still power the phone? Will the power pass through with these devices?

[@RonMar]

This worked for me! Thank you!

[@eakgun352]

It works very well. Thanks for the information

[@therealg-amer8781]

saved me quite a lot of money. thanks bro

[@jalaypatel]

I am not getting sound in my car speaker after connecting it with usb or wireless method any fix for it?

[@stephanie12416]

Would you happen to know why Apple music just keeps searching for the stream

[@FarazNoor]

Does not make sense why use the partial version when by just mounting the tab we can directly use the tab itself

[@hareshanddharshini3849]

Bro, Thx and how about if you want to charge. Think so if we go with wired...not sure on powering the device for long drive.

[@franciscomaldonado4091]

You got to buy a wireless charger, but then you can't use your phone's protected case

[@pradeepkapoor9596]

Is there any free HUR app available in play store

[@anonymous_786]

Can we use carplay? Or Any other app

[@user-mn3kq6tu7s]

Nice video, simple and sweet. Just one confusion. Which device to connect with car infotainment system and how like bluetooth via phone or Tablet to receive calls and operate steering buttons

[@labuan5609]

Yeah same question here, regarding the output sound can it connect to car speakers?

[@jimakos75]

It only works if they are connected via the same wifi network in my home. I dont know how to use it via 4g network from my mobile. If you can help me..

[@Dudu2683]

Can it run on headunit with android 4.2.2?

[@user-nk5nt1fw4q]

Thank's. Very help me!

[@r3tr0n17]

So, you'll need a Tablet and a separate Android phone for this setup to work? & both have to decently powerful for a lag free experience?

[@mingliangma840]

I am using a second hand 2020 tablet, runs great, hardly notice lagging, my phone is old too.

[@pradeepkapoor9596]

How can connect back camera

[@gokulk771]

Thanks for the video, my question is why android auto app ? using tablet's application directly won't be sufficient ?

[@paulregep]

For me usb doesnt work. Any fix?

[@daphreak007]

❤❤❤❤❤❤your a legend bro thank you,works flawlessly using wireless

[@rosscorindia9527]

Which version of android is your phone.?I’m using android 14, and is very different from yours. Unfortunately I couldn’t get it to work with my tablet, hard wired or Wifi.Any suggestions?

[@killmymusic]

Make sure Android Auto is turned off on your tablet. If you don't you keep getting the self mode screen from your tablet's AA, instead of the settings-screen of the HUR app.

[@mohammedm6137]

But data notvworking suffering alot

[@BERLIN900]

Hallo mein S24 ultra wird dabei sehr heiß ist das normal

[@anonybadis]

[@joephu]

I watched another video and got my Amazon Fire tablet to work with a cable but not wirelessly. This video fixed the issue by enabling developer mode. Thanks a ton!

I'm using a 10 year old tablet and it works. Little bit laggy but better than buying a expensive head unit. LG GPAD X 8.0

Is it possible to connect it to the stereo as well?

[@brianstalker85]

It only kinda works. Yes android auto pops up but it keeps wanting to play the music from my phone, not the cars speakers

[@cirilmathew]

Connect your bluetooth from tablet to car speaker adaptor, or you can plug the headphone out from tablet to aux

[@mrphysics2625]

This is no longer compatible with current android auto.

[@elsondeSaantana123d]

Yes

[@yungpihov6610]

Fr?

[@mrphysics2625]

@@yungpihov6610 wifi connection didn't work i have to use wired. It might be due to my tablet choice tho. A7 lite

[@zajizjaz]

If your tablet is cellular variant just use your tablet as maps instead of android auto😂

[@d77543020]

Works for me

[@swarupmitra3726]

USB Controlled By: Connected Device" won't switch not working

[@IndianStockMarketTrader]

Unlock the mobile. Then connect usb cable to mobile. Later select file transfer on mobile. It should work.

[@jellisellis8558]

Well if you have DEX on your tablet then you can open any apps simultaneously and resize them to your liking on your screen . For me I can use 6 screens on my a9plus 128 gb 8 GB RAM I could even watch a movie listening to music while using google maps I can use google commands to text talk and web browsing not that I would do all these while driving but yea everything I want even cod game . Just need to use Bluetooth Easy option if you tablet is equipped with it

[@TheSrathish]

Can someone help me understand why you need Android auto connection here, anyway its an Android tab, can't we directly use it instead?

[@MrSACAR999]

My question is also same just mount it and use it that's it

[@alaaessam5545]

As in my case, I ride a motorcycle and I own a Samsung S22 Ultra. If I mount my phone or any other high-end phone to the handlebar, I will damage the camera due to the extreme vibration applied on the optical stabilization system in the lenses. So, I had to find an old phone or something to mount on the handlebar. That's one example.

[@penguinado8983]

Because the tablet does not have any mobile data or GPS. It is simply a larger screen to connect your android device to for easy access to its functions like GPS and music. Most new cars already have big screens. Older ones no. So if you would rather use your smaller android phone with no android auto thats fine. Its a preference lol.

[@TheSrathish]

@@penguinado8983 Im using tablet in my car, fixed it using magnetic mount, uses my mobile hotspot to connect to internet.

Android Auto will not run on a phone directly.

@@daviddredge1178 i tried it just now and it worked...both the methods I used 7.2 version of the HUR app

[@user-zd5bt8hv8b]

Seriously? So everytime you get into your car, you have to set the tablet and your phone and let both batteries drained off especially when using wi-fi mode? how are you going to charge your tablet and phone if using USB mode when you have to travel 300km? with the cable tangling here and there, hahaha Not to mention you need 2 holders, one for the table another one for the phone. Why can't we just put our phone on the holder, and forget this tablet shitty system? So we can all brmmmmmmmmmm brrrrrrmmmmm within 2 secs. I was sooooooooooo amazed ( nothing about you ) people came up with this idea.

[@kesavagarwal6597]

It's more useful for like the Android Head Units which often don't have Android auto and the on system navigation is less responsive
