Comments on HeadlessUnit for Android

★★★★★ RIFIN · Jul 5, 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent free alternative to Head unit Reloaded! The app is lightweight, easy to set up, and works surprisingly well. I tested it with Android Auto, and the performance was smooth with a clean interface. It's great to see an open-source project offering such a useful solution for free. Thanks to the developer for the hard work—looking forward to future updates and even more features

★★★★★ Ali U. Ahmar · Sep 30, 2026

I'd been searching for days figuring out how I could get android auto to work on my cheap aftermarket screen. This app was so easy to set up do make sure you fix your dpi though. I had to set mine down to 137dpi to get everything to fit properly

★☆☆☆☆ Lands · Oct 10, 2026

Does not work, tried everything to get two phones to connect. Edit for my reply: I don't have discord and I tried all of that, didn't work. Tried Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi direct, Bluetooth, nothing happened. it's easier to just use my backup phone to run through a playlist in my car connected to my fm transmitter.

Had to try it since it free but it doesn't support my phone, after using self mode, the screen was blank and the music stutter at the start
