How to Screen Mirror on Lavida Navigation?
3 Answers
Insert the car frequency converter into the vehicle's HDMI port and press the switch button to screen mirror. To connect your phone to the car screen, three conditions must be met: the phone must support MHL functionality; the car must have an HDMI port; and an MHL cable is required. In addition to using an MHL cable to screen mirror to the car screen, the phone can also mirror to a TV or computer.
I tried the screen mirroring function on the Lavida last week, and it worked quite smoothly. The new Lavida typically supports two methods: using Apple's CarPlay for iPhones or Baidu CarLife for Android. First, let's talk about CarPlay: connect your iPhone to the car's USB port with an original Apple cable (don't use a charging port), and a prompt will appear on the car's screen—just tap 'Agree' to mirror the screen. Baidu CarLife is similar, but you need to install the app on your phone first before connecting. A quick tip: don’t lock your phone during the connection, or the screen might freeze. If it doesn’t connect, don’t panic—it’s likely a cable issue. Switching to a better cable usually solves it. The feeling of turning your car’s navigation into a big phone screen is really great.
For the Lavida screen mirroring, it depends on the infotainment system's year. As a 2021 model owner, I found the App-Connect or phone mirroring button on the center display. Before connecting via USB cable, remember to enable USB debugging mode (Android) or trust the device (iPhone). Once connected, you can directly project navigation apps like Gaode or Baidu, and even sync music playlists. A small detail: screen mirroring only works while driving, so set your route while parked for safety and convenience. By the way, updating your phone to the latest OS improves compatibility, while older Lavida models require an additional adapter box for mirroring.
