How to Project Phone Navigation to the Screen in the Tiguan L
2 Answers
First, enable the Bluetooth function on both your phone and the vehicle's Bluetooth device, and set your phone's Bluetooth to be visible or discoverable to all devices in the settings. Then, search for Bluetooth devices on your phone. Once found, select and pair the device to establish a connection, after which you can proceed with screen projection.
I usually drive the Tiguan L to work, and I particularly enjoy projecting my phone's navigation onto the large screen—it's quite straightforward. When using an iPhone, I just connect it to the car's USB port, usually located near the center console, with a cable. Once connected, a prompt appears on the phone asking whether to enable CarPlay, and I simply tap 'Allow.' The car screen immediately switches to the CarPlay interface, where I can open navigation apps like Amap, and the route is displayed clearly. Android users follow a similar process by connecting their phones and using Android Auto. The first time I tried this, I had to update the car's firmware to avoid compatibility issues, which can be done easily in the settings menu. Projecting the navigation makes driving safer since I don’t need to constantly glance down at my phone—the elevated screen position keeps my focus on the road, especially helpful on highways. I also regularly check Bluetooth and location permissions in my phone settings to ensure stable connectivity.
