    Good day,
    I have a new Prime. My droid cell phone will BT to the radio but when I plug it in, it does not work, says not compatible. Is there a list of compatible phones? I want to upgrade the phone and take advantage of some of these nifty features :)



    thanks!

    Not compatible with...Android Auto? What's the full error message, just "not compatible" or is there more?

    If you're talking about Android Auto you need an Android version greater than 8.0 on your phone:
    Get started with Android Auto - Android Auto Help

    Pretty much any Android phone you can buy today should meet this requirement unless you really cheap out

    Sorry I dont have Android. I have Apple and my iPhone works with Apple CarPlay(with a few flaws)

    Funny enough, according to this, Android Auto is not even listed to work with the Prius here:
    Android Auto for Toyota

    Probably because Android is trash… get an Apple phone and never look back
