Bluetooth allows you to access your phone through the media center of your vehicle. Access Your Address Book, Make Calls, Receive Calls and stream your music through your vehicle without ever touching your phone! Newer Bluetooth Models even store your information so you don’t have to plug anything in! Bluetooth is a must-have in this day and age. Luckily, most vehicles come with them!
App Integration is the newest feature using Bluetooth. Imagine Climbing into your car, only to remember you’ve forgot your phone several miles away…thus, also all of your music. If Your vehicle has App Integration (most newer models do) you don’t have to worry, because you can’t access your Pandora etc on your vehicles Media Center!
Text to Speech Reading Technology is pretty cool! We all know that texting and driving is extremely dangerous. So, you know those times when your driving and get an important text message that needs your attention ASAP and you think…”I really wish someone was here to read this message to me!” With Text to Speech, now your Media Center will read your text’s for you so you can stay connected in real time in a safer, more effective way! Pretty cool, right? Mobile Wifi is the best feature yet, in my opinion. Phone data fills up FAST and what’s a person to do when they’re the passenger on a road trip and need to get some work done instead of burning hours just sitting there. Most vehicles these days (newer models) come equipped with the capability of connecting to Wifi. So, now…stream movies, access your laptop and stream audio over Wifi!
Active Driving Aids make driving so much safer! Many newer model vehicles alert you to other vehicles driving in your blind spots, debris in the road and upcoming accidents. Some vehicles can even apply steering, throttle and/or brake inputs to keep you in your lane and out of trouble!
