Genuine ZLINK app along with stable Android setup, ZLINK has issues with this particular device

I really like the Android setup on this, nice easy setup that doesn't distract you when you're at home to run. The radio app is similar to most if not all Android 10 radios and does a reasonably good job. Most people will be interested in the ZLINK app. The ZLINK app controls Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, but I can only test Android Auto. Luckily, the ZLINK app activates correctly, which other devices don't. That means you can connect to WiFi without worrying about this deactivation. In my case, however, I noticed that Android Auto was running at the lowest resolution, and after playing for an hour I couldn't get Android Auto to run at its native 1024x600 resolution. Android on the device itself is standard for Android car stereos. You can use Google Maps and it works quite well if you download offline maps, which is handy when your phone isn't available. Along with Spotify and/or other offline music apps. The sound is good enough, but I think for most this will be an upgrade when switching from an old head unit. All in all it will be a nice improvement over the standard head unit. a device that offers many options with Android and proper activation with ZLINK.

Pros
  • Apple Carplay and Android Auto
Cons
  • Minor issues
