Pioneer Apple Car Play Audio Upgrade for a Ford Excursion by Monney Redwood City - 650-299-9991

This Project we put in the Pioneer Apple Car Play in this Ford Excursion - a great audio upgrade.








Pioneer’s NEX or Networked Entertainment eXperience line of receivers feature an innovative and powerful new user interface which is responsive and highly customizable. The NEX models are designed especially for today’s smartphone-driven lifestyle.
APPLE CARPLAY
 The AVIC-8100NEX features Apple CarPlay, the smarter, safer and more fun way to use your iPhone® in the car. Apple CarPlay gives iPhone users an incredibly intuitive way to make calls, use Maps, listen to music, and access messages with just a word or a touch. Learn more at www.apple.com/ios/carplay or www.pioneer-carglobal.com
ANDROID AUTO
  The AVIC-8100NEX also features Android Auto which extends the Android platform into the car in a way that’s purpose-built for driving and automatically brings you useful information and organizes it into simple cards that appear just when they’re needed. It’s designed to minimize distraction so you can stay focused on the road ahead.
Android Auto is compatible with Android phones running Android 5.0 (Lollipop) or later. Android Auto may not be available on all devices and is not available in all countries or regions.
ENHANCED USER INTERFACEMore advanced than ever before, NEX features a responsive, powerful and intuitive touchscreen user interface that is easy to use and highly customizable. Clearly, NEX is designed specifically for today’s smartphone and tablet-driven lifestyle.
PINCH-AND-ZOOM NAVIGATIONThe flagship AVIC-8100NEX features a capacitive touchscreen in an in-dash navigation system. Multi-touch gestures like pinch to zoom, plus simple swipe and scroll controls, put everything NEX has to offer at your fingertips.
FUTURE OF NAVIGATIONIn addition to the latest mapping and turn-by-turn directions to a large database of Points-of-Interest, things like restaurants, gas stations and ATMs. Four of the five NEX models with built-in navigation offer detailed, reliable traffic and route guidance information to help you get where you want to go.
STAY CONNECTEDConnect your compatible iOS, Android™ or MirrorLink™ smartphone with NEX for a truly connected experience, bringing many of your favorite apps right into the dashboard and letting you communicate using advanced high quality Bluetooth connectivity.
In addition to playing numerous sources and file formats, Pioneer's AppRadio® Mode allows you to bring many of your favorite apps right into the dashboard.
All NEX models feature built-in Bluetooth® that enables both hands-free calling and audio streaming. Including the latest Hands-Free Profile (HFP 1.6) with Wideband Speech capability, NEX provides more natural sound quality and details during calls. When streaming music, NEX even lets you browse and select the media stored on your smartphone using the AVRCP 1.4 profile.
Note: MirrorLink compatibility is limited to certain Android phones and varies by phone, phone OS version, and carrier.
POWER OF SIRI® Eyes FreeUsers of an iPhone® with Siri can take advantage of Siri Eyes Free functionality. With a simple touch of the NEX touchscreen, Siri starts listening through the NEX unit's external microphone and answers your questions and requests over the vehicle's speakers, helping you keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel.

SOUND QUALITY FOR ALLYour car and your music are as unique as you are. With a Pioneer NEX in-dash receiver, sound quality features like built-in Auto EQ and Time Alignment, 13-Band Graphic Equalizer with touch panel swipe settings and built-in high/low pass crossover with adjustable points and slopes provide you with the controls to tailor the listening experience to your vehicle and listening preferences. The CD-MC20 microphone is required for Auto EQ features and sold separately.
Your love of high-res audio does not need to stop at the front door. Now for the first time in an aftermarket car stereo, you can enjoy FLAC files in your vehicle without the need to convert. Pioneer's NEX in-dash receivers are the first in the industry to offer playback of files encoded as high-res FLAC up to 192kHz/24 bit and provide playback output at CD quality. With Pioneer, your high-res FLAC is no longer confined to your home hi-fi system - put your music on the move.

Expanding on Pioneer’s philosophy to enable consumers stay connected, MirrorLink opens the door to more smartphones that feature MirrorLink technology. MirrorLink gives you a custom interface so you can access your music, map services and your phone to make calls on-the-go, hands-free of course. MirrorLink compatibility is limited to certain android phones and varies by phone, phone OS version, and carrier.
