Ratings and reviews

UPDATE JULY 2024. STILL POORPERFORMANCE. Have to uninstall and reinstall on a regular basis. SERIOUSLY NEEDS UPGRADING. Randomly stops working. Very annoying. Doesn't connect well with the head unit. Often the head unit asks me to install the app when its already there because I used it 5 minutes ago. Totally get the low rating. Please do a serious upgrade. Thanks

This is awful. No matter what I do, it will not connect my phone and the Kenwood. I installed the app on my Android phone, clicked on mirroring on the screen in the car, and am told I need to install the app! I have tried this several times to no avail. The Kenwood site is worthless with no way to get help.

I installed this to connect my DMX125DAB car unit to my Sony Xperia L1. Only 4 stars because there is no screen message on the phone saying "ready to connect", and on first connection using the USB input on the car unit there is quite a delay with the car screen just blank - it would be easy to assume the connection isn't working. Once the connection is made the app works fine, allowing the phone to be used from the car unit touch screen. I installed a "set landscape" app to ensure the car display is always in landscape format and I use Android Auto to give me Satnav, music and phone all in one place. A point to note is that the park sensor function switches off the mirroring display when the handbrake is off. Kenwood UK advised me that this is a safety feature to prevent viewing moving images when the car is moving.. The installation diagram shows that the park sensor wire is earthed when the park brake is on and the park brake switch is closed.
