Honda car won't recognize an android phone through USB. Can any app

My new-used 2012 Honda Fit won't recognize an android phone through USB. From what I can tell, it's because androids use a different file organization system than iPhones/iPods.

The car does NOT have Bluetooth. I know aux cord is an option but I want the phone to connect to the volume and channel buttons on the steering wheel.

I've already tried to debug USB through developer options on my phone. It doesn't help.

Is there any app I can download to fix this? Or is there any other way to make the phone usable when I'm in the car?

Add a Bluetooth adapter to the car, although you'd still have to operate the phone itself.

Or us the aux cord, which also means you must operate the phone manually.

Or, if you are really ambitious, re-write the software that runs the entertainment system in the car to understand Android instead of iOS.

Those are your options. Honda saw fit (haha) to tie their system to iOS, leaving Android users out in the cold. Without rewriting the code that runs the system, there's no way to do what you want to do.

HI that is correct only APPLE are the main one that most recognise.

Don't know

  • How to use my android phone for music in my car? I have a 2007 honda odyssey. The only input I can find in there's the cigarette light input. Does anyone know how I can connect my phone music to the car stereo? I'm guessing there's some sort of adapter or cord I can buy but I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for.
  • I just got a car sales job about 2 months ago. I'm currently working at Honda and i'm trying to bring customers in through facebook? I'm posting cars in different groups where they advertise cars and also in the market place, and every time i post a car i get about 4 messages about the car. I can never seem to get them to come in the store though, and its frustrating! How do you build value through a message so they have the urge to come in the next day and at least look at what your offering?
  • How to connect my phone to my car? My mom just bought a used mini van ( Honda) I don't know what year. It has a screen where you can control the ac and some other stuff but the radio it's below. It doesn't have a place to put the aux chord or to put a tape, only CDs can be put. I really don't like to drive without music and I hate listening to radio stations.
  • Is there any way I can put in an aux cord to play audio if I only have USB ports? I started leasing a 2019 Honda CR-V recently, and the only inputs seem to be USB ports. My friends like passing around the aux cord when we drive places, and though the CR-V does support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, switching between a lightning cable and a micro-USB seems like a hassle (since they have different phone models). I found some USB to aux adaptors online, but the reviews on them say that they can't be used to do what I want.
