This touchscreen replaces the factory screen or radio in a BMW 5 Series from 2003 to 2016. It adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and it keeps the car's original features.
The screen connects to a phone wirelessly or with the USB cable that comes with it. Apps can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play. These include calling and messaging, music, video, navigation and games. Examples are Spotify, YouTube, Netflix, Google Maps, Waze and WhatsApp.
It works with the factory steering wheel controls and keypads. Climate control, seat positions and the rear camera can be controlled from the touchscreen. The module creates a new Bluetooth connection in place of the factory one. Reverse cameras are provided and display wirelessly on the screen.
