Do you have Apple CarPlay or Android Auto available in your car?
Awesome video mate. I got something similar coming in a few weeks 👌
Thank you for tuning in Dave 🙌 I was looking for a car stereo unit with wireless Apple CarPlay since a while and thankfully the searching is over. I was a bit worried about the performance prior having it, fortunately, there is absolutely no hassle at all.
Making a review of something different than a detailing product was very challenging though, I had to admit 😅
Looking forward to your upcoming stuff mate. Keep rocking 🙌
@@RoadToDetailing I'm moving away from detailing mate I've had enough of it now. It's not dead but it is dying off
Yeah, I see where you’re coming from Dave. Whatever you decide is the best to do, just follow your instincts mate 🔥☘️🤞🏻 (ps: I feel nearly the same way)
@@RoadToDetailing everyone else has stopped consistently uploading so it actually has a knock on effect
I think this is the most poignant exchange between content producers I've ever seen.
A very concise and well presented video, I managed to learn more from this than all the others online that just want to talk about sound settings. Have you had any issues with having both internal and external microphones operating at the same time? thanks again.
Thank you, I am glad you found it useful 🙌 Overall the unit works great, wasn’t facing any issues so far. Currently, I am using only the internal microphone (haven’t installed the external microphone) and when I asked people during phone calls, everyone was saying they were hearing me well. So this is the reason I don’t have the external microphone installed just yet. In theory, you should be good to go with both installed. I would place the external microphone around the rear-view mirror.
@@RoadToDetailing yes I have yet to do a road real world driving test but getting used to it and it is streets ahead of the previous S7 Linux version. Cheers
Can you provide the harness you used for this I have the same car.
I use the most basic toyota harness: amzn.to/4a0FffR
Plus, an antenna adapter:
amzn.to/417VPGp
Keep in mind, you will need additional harness for steering wheel control. For an all in one harness, this would be your best choice:
connects2.com/Product/ProductItem/CTSTY013.2
(Plus you will need a connection lead, that you can find on the same page)
Hope this helps 🙌
Does this support the bird eye view / 360 camera as well as reverse parking assist?
Those features only available with the ATOTO S8 series. I haven’t tried these yet, so I am not fully sure. Check the full specifications on their website: myatoto.com
Hi,how would this one compare to well known brand car stereos like Alpine,Pioneer,Sony and Kenwood?
Hi Ed!
Unfortunately I hadn’t have the chance to try one of the high-end branded units. In fact, a 9 inch unit costs at least double or triple (even more) the price compared to ATOTO. Obviously if, someone has the budget for them to buy or try, they probably a better option. However, when it comes to value for money: ATOTO is hard to beat in my opinion. Also, the support from ATOTO is good enough as well. Hope this helps 🙌
Does this work for all cars?? What about 2001-2006 Lexus ls430, do I need to buy a separate harness?
The unit itself should be working in all cars IF, you have the space available (double din).
As for harness, toyota and lexus are pretty much the same, but for the sake of safety, please ask your local car shop for the specific lexus ISO harness and antenna adapters.
Do I need the pac rp4 ni11 radio pro for steering wheel
Not necessarily needed. Alls the wire harness provided in cables, but you will need to connect the proper wires manually.
If you don’t want to do that, you will need the extra accessories for “plug and play” steering wheel option.
Hope this makes sense ✌🏻
Hello everyone.
1 - Can someone tell me if it is possible to keep the date and clock saved when it turns on ? It always reset after shutting down.
2 - Why the music plays automatically when it turns on ? Is it possible tu change it ?
Thanks.
Sure 😉
1. Make sure your GPS antenna is correctly connected, then ensure that time is allowed to sync in time settings
2. Without GPS antenna connected, ensure the 2 crucial wires (Im talking in the video) is attached properly, so the device can run is “ultra sleep mode”. Meaning, the it remembers the time in every boot.
I personally use the first option, and once you have got the gos signal, the time will be set immediately and automatically.
2 crucial wires for ultra sleep mode: the 12v ignition and the 12v constant power harnesses.
I have faced with issue, but there is a solution, hope this helps 🙌
Anyone know if I should go for this or the f7?
I haven’t tried the F7, so I have no experience with that, but I do like my A6 PF model. Had no issues since the day I uploaded this video ✌🏻
Is the radio and speaker harness separate or do I have to purchase both
There is harness provided “from the unit” to ISO. If your car doesn’t have “ISO harness” you need a car specific ISO harness to purchase, OR! you can connect the wires manually, too (without a need of a car specific ISO harness), but this requires some technical skills. (Although you have all information in the manual that which wires go where)
@@RoadToDetailing where did you get your iso harness I have an Altima
@kingme0072 I just typed in on Google: Toyota ISO harness and you will find one specifically to Altima. I live in EU, just walked in the first car stereo shop and bought one. You also might need an antenna adapter.
Do I need a cab bus system for my Altima
You can do the wiring manually, or you can buy a “ready to use” harness for Altima. (ISO connector / harness). All the wires included l, but if you don’t want to manually connect the wires, you will need at list an Altima specific ISO adapter to get it plug and play.
iphone carplay with ios 17+ doesnt work on my atoto a6 but it does work with ios with 16+. How do I overcome this problem?
Hi! I have no issues using my ATOTO with iOS 17+ with Apple CarPlay. I suggest you to contact with ATOTO directly via their website. Their Customer Support is usually great. www.myatoto.com/
does it have steering wheel control connectivity?
Yes, this unit includes all needed harnesses for steering wheel control. Also the software includes a separate programming for this feature in the settings. hope this helps
@@RoadToDetailing thank you
How come my atoto a6 needs to be connected to carlink via wifi to use apple carplay/android auto
Check the video from 10:08 ✌🏻
Yes I did that but for some reason my head unit doesn't want to connect to AC via Bluetooth 1. So whenever i use wireless AC, I connect it to wifi using the CarlinkAP
Have you toggled the “automatically launch CP/AA when connected to this device” at the bottom of the BT1 pairing page?
Also, when it does connect AA/CP the main BT connection stops, due the fact it will transfer data/sound via WiFi in the Carlink app. So not having BT connection while connected CP is normal.
BT pairing helps to create an automatic connection for Carlink, if the above settings toggled. If not, then you need to manually tap on Carlink app and waiting for the connection with CP.
Hope this helps 🙌
Can this also be used with Apple CarPlay?
Mate, have you watched the video? 😏 10 minutes of the entire video is just about demonstrating Apple CarPlay 🙌
my unit stays on verification approved every time i start up and carplay occasionally shows up
Have you turned on auto connect at the bluetooth settings (unit)? Also, have you enabled CarPlay while the iPhone is locked in the settings of your iPhone? Also, make sure your wifi is enabled, and your iPhone doesn’t sharing the internet to other devices, nor the head unit connected to other networks. Hope this helps
How do I get the am fm to work
Have you used a radio antenna adapter?
@@RoadToDetailing the atoto did not come with one and my harness did not as well I guess I have to get that separate also how do I stop the beep sound Whn pressing buttons
@kingme0072 there are ISO harnesses provided in the ATOTO box. Also, there are simple wires you can connect manually (so you don’t “need” extra ISO harnesses”. If you want a plug and play, you need to purchase an “ISO harness” for your car specific cables. (Usually with older cars like mine). But, you also need a separate antenna connector FROM your car. These are all car specific connections, and the ATOTO comes with “ISO male connector”, so you need a female ISO harness that is always related to your own car, because there are so many kinds of cars out there.
For me, I purchased a Toyota specific ISO female harness and because that doesn’t come with an antenna adapter, I also had to purchase that separately. I also mentioned all of these in the video :)
As per sound setting goes, there is a chapter for this as well 🙌 This should be in the sound settings, in the video I went through all of the available sound settings, and I mentioned that how to turn this sound setting off, because it is indeed very frustrating 🙌
Hope this helps
I have a Toyota. So I bought this adapter to the fm radio:
amzn.to/4b7xzc8
And please search your nearest store for an ISO harness (female), you will fond one very easily 🙌
