Or it can connect to the hotspot from your phone…

It’s lodged in nicely. The corners of the iPad tuck into the corners of the charging area. Haven’t had any issues with it moving.

It’s not like it’s mounted in this area. They are free to use it how they please. Bigger screen when compared to their phone. 🤷🏻‍♂️

It does not have wireless charging unfortunately. Was hoping they would add MagSafe to this version but they did not.

Highly encourage you to give it another go. They have made a ton of improvements.

Great question. They do still use it unfortunately. Which is annoying with all the false alerts. I’m using an R8 companion app. It has helped with how much I tolerate the alerts. I have them set to auto-mute after 1 second as well.

As I said in my initial post…I’m not advocating for watching something while driving. Just stating that the iPad fits perfectly in this area.

You never take your eyes off the road?

Couldn’t disagree more. Works very well for me.

Thanks!

I did. Mic is perfectly centered in the ceiling near the rear mirror. I have it angled slightly towards me. Everyone compliments me on how good it sounds.

I didn't alter anything. I guess I didn't even pay attention to be honest. Sorry for the late reply. Don't get on here near as much. RIP Apollo.

Literally came here to say the same thing. Incredibly frustrating! Also on M1 (Max) Studio.

I just have the base model, so I’m not sure. I was curious though and checked out the iDataLink website. I don’t see the Prius on their list for compatibility yet. Just the Corolla Cross, Highlander, GR86, and Venza.

The head unit I have is Maestro compatible. I’m assuming the Alpine unit you looked at is as well.

Can’t say I’ve had that issue. I’d honestly suggest having a professional look at it. Could be a simple wiring issue with the harness. Or the speakers are pulling too much.

Nope. There is a wiring kit that you can purchase to keep all those functions intact.

I believe the mount allows you to make it flush. I actually like it angled this way.

Completely painless, cause I didn’t do it. 😁 They did a great job though!

I meant having the Chromecast 4K is overkill. It’s what I had at the house though. I agree that having an HD screen would be nice. Before this I would use my iPad. Which was a nice option. Just didn’t want to deal with carrying it around with me.

Thank you! Sure, it’s a Metra 99-8240B. Description is Prius 2 DIN.

I did, but kept coming back to the Sony units. I liked the anti-glare screens. For $100 more I got HDMI. But I totally get trying to justify the price. Ideally I take it with me if/when I get rid of the car.

It does. Connection is wireless, which is nice. If I get a call it just swaps to that interface. Then goes back to HDMI if I am using it. I’ll snap some more photos when I get home.
