Use Any Android Tablet as an Android Auto Car Head Unit
0Turn your regular Android tablet into a full-featured Android Auto head unit with just a few simple steps. In this video, you’ll learn how to set up your tablet to function like a built-in car infotainment system using an app called Headunit Reloaded. Whether you're trying to modernize an older vehicle or simply want a bigger, customizable display, this solution is perfect for creating a seamless in-car experience.
To begin, you'll need to purchase and install the *Headunit Reloaded Emulator* from the Google Play Store. This is a paid app that enables Android Auto projection onto your tablet. Once installed, a few settings and permissions will need to be enabled for everything to work correctly. The video shows you exactly how to do this, so make sure to follow each step closely.
Next, the tutorial walks you through enabling Android Auto on your main Android phone, which acts as the source device. If you don’t already have Android Auto installed, you’ll see how to download it from the Play Store and configure the connection settings. Key steps include pairing both devices via Bluetooth and allowing location access for Google Maps, which is essential for accurate navigation during use.
The connection can be made either wirelessly or using a USB cable, depending on your car setup and personal preference. Once everything is configured, your Android tablet will mirror Android Auto, allowing you to access Google Maps, music apps, voice assistants, and more—just like a built-in head unit.
This setup is ideal for DIY car upgrades or repurposing an old tablet. Watch until the end for a smooth and successful configuration.
