Comments on Pioneer Smart Sync for Android

★★★★★ Väinö Soikkeli · Jun 13, 2026

App works flawlessly. Seems people don't know how to use smartphones nor do car audio. There is one problem, on the Driver Pilot Mode it doesn't show my speed, even thought I have given permission for GPS and GPS is on. Other than that, no issues whatsoever in two years using the app across two different devices.

★★★★☆ Jonathan Stuart · Jul 26, 2025

Enables me to control all the features of my Pioneer unit in a canal boat. Selecting DAB stations is very confusing and fiddly, but I've sort of got used to it now. Most negative experience is that the app runs down the phone battery in the background, whether connected to the audio device.

★★★★☆ Andy Zehner · May 25, 2026

Works well enough to control my compatible head unit for my street rod. Android phone screen does sometimes go black after a while, but I think that is power saving on my new phone

★★★★★ R S · Apr 29, 2026

People complaining about their phones losing connection or being clunky. You have to update the firmware on it because it works with an app. Get the firmware off pioneer, usb and fins a guide it's not that hard.

★☆☆☆☆ Simon Davis · Jun 22, 2025

A hopeless time wasting app. The phone connects fine to the unit using native Bluetooth, the app sees the Bluetooth connection, but fails connection every time. Walking through the troubleshooting is an exercise in futility, failing every time after both devices have approved the pairing. Such a time waster. This app is not usable by mere mortals. Based on this don't purchase a Pioneer car radio, as without the app the radio is unusable. PS there are many pages of terms and conditions!

★☆☆☆☆ Ragnar Danneskjold · Jul 3, 2026

This flawed app should be removed from Google play. This scam app does nothing more than collect data from your phone and waste time trying to get it to connect to the stereo head. It will never connect. It does not function to control a pioneer head, it does nothing. Use normal Bluetooth connectivity for the mediocre head unit and delete this app from your phone immediately. Devs should be ashamed of this failure.
