Q: QuestionI have a 2011 Honda element. I have an aux input but as far as charging my phone I have an adapter in the cigarette lighter space. So how would I connect my phone to this to charge and play my music?

Asked 7 years ago by Erica.

• A:Answer The Stereo comes bundled with a USB input cable attached to the back of it that your installer can route to a specific area in your vehicle that you prefer. You then plug your phone’s charging cable into this USB input cable, which will then charge your phone and provide Apple CarPlay or Android Auto functionality.

Q: QuestionIf I connect my Android Tablet (Full of MP3's, Google Maps, and Spotify) via USB, and my iPhone via Bluetooth, will I be able to use Android Auto (Spotify, Maps) and answer phonecalls using my iphone through bluetooth?

Asked 7 years ago by Tim.

• A:Answer you'll need a data connection on your tab to use android auto. you can listen to your tunes thru usb, i'm assuming that the unit will read your tab's hard drive. spotify, maps and other online services need a data connection to function (does your tab have a sim card?) i've tried to use my android phone on android auto simultaneously with my ipod thru bluetooth to listen to my tunes, but it's tricky and not always smooth. android auto is always trying to take over both bluetooth and usb. i think i got it to work once, but haven't tried it since. great unit! there's a little lag with navigation, but you get used to it and can accommodate. with android auto you can listen to many radio, podcast, music play apps. just check which are compatible with android auto and install them on your phone, and you can probably largely duplicate what you get from your tab's hard drive. i assume the same is true of iphones thru airplay.
