Does Android Auto use Bluetooth?

Yes, Android Auto does use Bluetooth as one of the connectivity options. When using Android Auto in a car, you can connect your Android device to the car's infotainment system either via a USB cable or wirelessly using Bluetooth. Bluetooth is used for various functions, such as hands-free calling, media playback control, and voice commands, while the USB connection provides additional features like screen mirroring and faster data transfer.

Our wireless Android Auto adapter has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth hardware. AAWireless establishes a Bluetooth connection with your phone, passes the Wi-Fi credentials from the dongle to the phone, and then breaks off the Bluetooth connection. The adaptor exclusively utilises Wi-Fi from that moment on. This will not happen if dongle mode is enabled. Dongle mode will keep the bluetooth connection always on.
