Steps to connect Carlife to the car: 1. Install and open Baidu Carlife on your phone; 2. Connect to the car via USB and open Carlife on the car; 3. Click the icon in the upper left corner of the phone screen to select the settings menu; 4. Scroll down in the settings menu and select USB debugging mode; 5. Enable developer options and USB debugging, and allow debugging when prompted to successfully connect. On the car system, Baidu Carlife can be well adapted to Linux, QNX, and Android; on the user side, Baidu Carlife supports both Android and iOS operating systems.
I think connecting CarLife is quite simple, but it needs to be done step by step. First, make sure your car supports CarLife—many new models come with this feature. Use a good-quality USB cable, preferably the original one, and plug it into the car's USB port. Remember to install the Baidu CarLife app on your phone before getting in the car. Then, enable USB debugging in the developer options on your phone—the settings path may vary depending on the phone model, like Huawei's in the system settings. Next, start the car and select CarLife mode on the car's infotainment system. The app will automatically pop up a prompt, and you just need to agree to the permissions. Once connected, you can use your phone's navigation and music on the screen. If your older car doesn't have this feature, you can buy a CarLife box on Taobao to get it working.
