EQ without leaving the map

Swipe two fingers in from the right edge and the equalizer slides out next to Android Auto or CarPlay. Navigation keeps running behind it.

Ten bands from 50 Hz to 12 kHz, each ±20 dB.

Grid of equalizer presets: Default, Bass, Pop, Rock, Hip-Hop, Vocal, Loudness, Highway and more

Presets for whatever's playing

Over 20 music presets, including Highway for road noise and Loudness for low volume. Movie and podcast presets too, and three custom profiles you tune yourself.

  • Smart Bass Boost adds low end when the sliders are maxed
  • Master Gain Boost for head units that play too quietly
  • Distortion Protection keeps boosted presets clean on loud songs
Resized lyrics card and visualizer card floating over the CarPlay home screen

Lyrics and a visualizer, where you put them

Two floating cards you can drag, resize or close. Lyrics follow the song, with a timing offset if they run early or late. Both are off until you turn them on.

Choose a phone screen with cards for a USB phone, a paired Android phone and pairing a new phone

The phone you pick is the one that connects

Two phones in the car? The adapter waits until you choose. iPhones run CarPlay, Android phones run Android Auto, wireless or over USB.

Or turn on Auto Connect: start the car and your last phone connects on its own, with no phone screen to tap through.

EV routing in Google Maps on Android Auto

Google Maps in Android Auto normally knows nothing about your car's battery. MCEqual Ultra shares your EV's charge level, range, efficiency and charge ports with Maps, so it plans charging stops for the car you're actually driving and warns you before you run low.

  • Routes to Tesla Superchargers when your car can use them
  • Counts a trailer's weight and drag in the range forecast when you're towing
  • Plans stops at your car's real DC fast-charging speed

Available now on Android Auto. EV routing for CarPlay is coming soon. Built-in profiles for Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac EVs, the Honda Prologue and the Acura ZDX.

CarPlay and Android Auto

Directions on your instrument cluster

Your phone's turn-by-turn shows behind the wheel, on the instrument cluster and head-up display, with lane guidance on Android Auto. CarPlay can put its map or next-turn card on the cluster, with arrival time and the speed limit.

  • Beta: the phone's full map on the cluster, on supported cars
  • The car's GPS feeds your phone, for accurate positioning in tunnels and downtown

Cluster features depend on what your car's cluster supports.

More from the car

Will it work in my car?

Your car needs Android Automotive, the version of Android that runs the car's own screen (sometimes sold as "Google built-in"). Cars with only wired CarPlay or Android Auto can't run it.
