How to Connect and Mirror Your Phone to the Car System?

Turn on the Bluetooth function on your phone and the car navigation system, then pair them. The car navigation interface will display its name and pairing password. When the car system's wireless WiFi is turned on, it can easily find and connect to your phone.
I remember feeling a bit confused the first time I wanted to connect and mirror my phone to the car, but after trying it, I found it quite simple. I use an iPhone, just plug the USB cable into the car's central USB port, and after starting the vehicle, the CarPlay prompt pops up on the screen. A simple tap to agree mirrors the phone screen, with navigation and music apps all displayed. I usually use Google Maps for real-time traffic while driving, and Siri voice control for messages, which is super convenient. Bluetooth connection works similarly—just turn on the phone's Bluetooth and the car's pairing mode, then find and pair with the corresponding name. If there's an occasional disconnection, I restart my phone or check for a loose data cable. Nowadays, most new cars support wireless connection, eliminating the need for a data cable, but you have to ensure the car's system is compatible. For the average driver, this method makes driving safer by avoiding the hassle of looking down at the phone.
