Mobile phones can be mirrored to Mercedes-Benz cars. After mirroring, you can only play music, navigate, make and receive calls, etc. The methods for mirroring to Mercedes-Benz are as follows: For Apple phones: Mercedes-Benz's mirroring function is initially applicable to Apple phones. Simply connect to Carplay using a data cable (the USB port is located under the center console near the cup holder), and then you can use the phone for projection. For Android phones: Android phones are only supported on some Mercedes-Benz models from the 2019 lineup, and you need to download Carlife. Additionally, an Android-to-type-C adapter is required. Once connected, you can use Carlife for mirroring.
As an ordinary person who has been driving for many years, I can confidently tell you that it's entirely possible to project your phone screen onto a Mercedes-Benz car, which is quite convenient. I've driven many Mercedes models, and almost all the newer ones support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. If you have an iPhone, just connect it to the car's USB port with a cable, or some models even support wireless connection. Then, open the MBUX system menu in the car and select CarPlay. Android users can follow a similar process by installing the Android Auto app and setting it up. This feature is extremely practical, especially for navigation or playing music while driving, as it eliminates the need to constantly look at a small screen, significantly improving safety. However, make sure your phone's operating system is up to date, and your Mercedes model should be a recent one, as older models might not support this feature. Also, ensure a stable connection and avoid using aged data cables that might cause frequent disconnections. Overall, trying this feature will make your driving experience smarter and more relaxed.
