Alpine iLX-W690D - CarPlay/Android Auto Head Unit
The Alpine iLX-W690D Digital Media Receiver features a 7-inch hi-res capacitive touchscreen, which works perfectly with smartphone connectivity features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It is designed to give smartphone users all features they want and need to enjoy their car rides.
The built-in DAB+ digital radio tuner lets you enjoy radio stations in excellent sound quality, while the high-speed charging function for smartphones ensures that your phone battery is rapidly charged. Bluetooth audio streaming allows everyone in the car to contribute with their phones and music to the party on the road.
The unit features a very shallow installation depth of only 6 cm, which allows installation even in vehicles without full DIN-sized installation docks.
Product Features
Built-In DAB+ Digital Radio Tuner
The built-in DAB+ tuner uses the most advanced digital technology to deliver radio reception with outstanding, noise-free sound quality. DAB+ also offers many other advantages over traditional FM radio: choose from a much wider range of radio stations and after the initial station scan easily select your desired channels from an alphabetic or genre list of available stations.
Easy Online Navigation
Use your iLX-W690D with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto compatible navigation apps to get you to your next adventure. There are many excellent navigation apps available (such as Google maps, Apple maps, Waze, etc) that also include live-traffic information and advanced search functions.
Works with Apple CarPlay
The iLX-W690D “Works with Apple CarPlay” and lets iPhone users make and receive calls, access text messages, play music, and get directions in a way that allows them to stay focused on the road. Apple CarPlay is accessed through the capacitive touch screen or the mic button to activate Siri voice control and is compatible with iPhone 5S and later (iPhone must be connected via Apple lightning cable).
Works with Android Auto
This Head Unit is compatible with Android Auto to use hundreds of compatible apps while you drive and works with the Google Assistant. To access the Google Assistant on Android Auto, say "OK Google" or select the mic button. Google Assistant in Android Auto allows users to play their favorite music, get driving directions to their destination, interact with smart home devices and reply to text messages – hands free.
Shallow Installation Depth
The iLX-W690D’s chassis is only 6 cm deep, allowing it to be installed even in vehicles with 2DIN radio dock without full DIN size depth. This makes this unit very versatile and easily upgradeable with the KTA-450 or KTA-200M power pack.
