Set up Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™ in Your Honda  

Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ allow your car’s infotainment system to act as a display and controller for your smartphone. They enable you to use a range of applications from your phone on your car’s built-in screen, providing a convenient driving experience.  

Steps to Connect Apple CarPlay®  

  • Before starting, ensure that your Honda model supports Apple CarPlay® and that your iPhone is running iOS 7.1 or later.  
  • Use an Apple-approved Lightning cable to connect your iPhone to the car’s USB port. Look for the USB port labelled with the CarPlay® icon or a smartphone icon.  
  • On your Honda’s infotainment screen, you might see a prompt asking you to enable Apple CarPlay®. Follow the on-screen instructions to allow CarPlay® access on your iPhone.  
  • Press and hold the voice command button on your steering wheel to activate Siri. Use voice commands to navigate, make calls, and send messages.  

How to Connect to Android Auto™  

  • Ensure your Honda supports Android Auto™ and that your Android device has Android 5.0 (Lollipop) or higher.  
  • Use a USB cable to connect your Android phone to the car’s USB port labelled with the Android Auto™ or smartphone icon.  
  • Follow your phone’s on-screen prompts and the car’s infotainment system to complete the setup process. Grant the necessary permissions for Android Auto™ to access your phone’s features.  
  • Use Google Assistant by pressing and holding the voice command button on your steering wheel, enabling hands-free control for navigation, music, and communication.  

Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ can help with navigation, giving turn-by-turn directions and real-time traffic updates. Also, you can listen to your favorite music while traveling along with sending and receiving messages.
