Android auto/mirror link
Hi, has anyone managed to get this working so you can watch videos etc. I have a non nav radio that came with car play, android auto and mirror link. I can't seem to get the mirror link to work.

Mirror link is subpar compared to the apple and Android software.
Just use the type for your phone.
