- Lighting Signals: Adjusts screen brightness or activates night mode on the Android player based on vehicle headlight status.
- Steering Wheel Button Controls: Allows control of the Android player's functions (e.g., volume, track skip, mode selection) directly from your vehicle's steering wheel buttons.
Ensure your Android stereo's software is up-to-date to ensure optimal compatibility and performance with the CAN Bus decoder.
