Hi @mrtejano, welcome to the Community! Please note, that we do not currently support djay on Android Auto.

I’m able to connect it via CarPlay using my iPhone.

I can’t connect djay app to my headphones either using the Samsung s27. Seems I only have issues with the Android app and no issues with the IOS app.

Thanks for the follow up and additional info @mrtejano

Android Auto support would be AMAZING!

I use Android Auto to have better navigation/traffic awareness while driving and would be great to have Djay playing music in the background.

I can confirm that Djay plays audio through my car’s entertainment system as a regular Bluetooth device, but when connected via Android Auto it is forcibly “muted” for some reason. App shows playing and everything but just no audio passed through :cry:

Unfortunately, I have to prioritise using Android Auto to utilise my car’s larger screen for navigation.

Hi Slak_Jaw…I just started using this and I think that the ui/ux is great and this would be a no brainer for android auto app and car play…I know that development lifecycles are probably already stretched thin…but with AI assisted development IDEs now…this would be a quick turn around for just an interface and simple logic for limiting user interaction when car is in motion…please open a feature request if possible…
