Torque Pro Android Auto plug-in released!

[Gullzway]

Found this by accident. I haven't messed with it much yet, but it works. Unofficial plugin.

Native AA plugin when you install using KingInstaller. No need to try and get Screen2Auto mirroring working. This frees up your phone so it can be used like other AA apps work.

Do you lose the maps, and radio displays while using it?

Yes. You'll still get directions in the status bar, or can easily switch back to full maps with the button on the bottom left.
Also on Sync3, radio/Sirius channels can display on the instrument cluster.

Nice!

I'll fiddle with this this week.

I couldn't get it past this point. It never connected to the ECU. I did make changes to the displayed PIDs and gauge labels after this picture was taken and those did update. Admittedly, I didn't have more than a few minutes to mess with it.

I do like the looks of it.

But I've never used an Android phone in my life. ScanGaugeIII for me at this time.

It uses the Torque app. Is that app connecting to your ECU?

You know, I feel like an idiot now because I totally unplugged the OBD cable going to the Scangauge but did not plug in my OBD bluetooth dongle. Mystery solved lol

Do all XLT hybrid have sync 3?

Lariat only, but this works on all AA radios.

Not sure on the instrument cluster screen that shows the Source/channel you're on.

 

[GreyCacti]

Lariats only.

Bummer. I ordered xlt, I like the idea of having torque app on the screen.
I was confused about how it works, I thought the XLT had android auto, but it must be different than the sync 3.

All Mavericks have Android Auto. This will work.

Please enlighten someone that has no idea what this is for. What are you monitoring and why?

I really doubt I'd use this much but I can't help but be a little curious. does it need some kind of obd2 interface?
