About this app

CEONIX Headunit turns a spare Android phone or tablet into a wireless Android Auto head unit for your car or motorcycle. Mount it on the dashboard or the handlebar and your own phone projects maps, music and calls to it over a direct Wi-Fi link. No cable, no hotspot, and the head unit needs no internet connection.

WIRELESS ANDROID AUTO ON A SPARE DEVICE
• Works with Android Auto on your phone: navigation, music, calls and voice control on the head unit's screen.
• Connects on its own when your phone comes into range or when you unlock the screen.
• The two devices talk over Wi-Fi Direct: no mobile hotspot and no extra app running on your phone.
• Pause keeps the Android Auto connection open: music and navigation audio keep playing in the background while you look at something else, and an ongoing notification shows that the connection is active.

RIDE DASHBOARD FOR MOTORCYCLE RIDERS
• GPS speedometer, from the head unit's own GPS.
• Lean angle, with your maximum left and right lean remembered.
• Acceleration and braking g-force, with recorded maxima.
• Altitude with a route profile, and a sunset countdown with a headlights reminder.

EASY TO USE ON THE ROAD
• Large controls in a landscape layout, usable with gloves on a motorcycle.
• Launcher mode: use CEONIX Headunit as the device's home screen, with a drawer for your other apps.
• Light, dark and automatic themes, and a separate night mode for the projected screen.
• 20 languages.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no ads, no analytics. The app has no servers; nothing you do in it is sent to us.

WHAT YOU NEED
• An Android phone or tablet to use as the head unit (Android 5.0 or later).
• An Android phone with Android Auto.
• For first-time setup: the free CEONIX Setup app on your phone. It finds the head unit's Wi-Fi address once; after that the two connect on their own.
