I see a lot of people installing MMI units to get Android Auto/Carplay functionality. I'm not interested in Carplay, but would like to add Android Auto. I've looked at Bimmer Tech and Road Top, but I don't see anything that is compatible with the 2019 i3. I take it there were some changes made to the head unit over previous models? Does anyone have Android Auto working on their 2019+ model, and what method did you use to do so?
 
This outfit has an add-on box that plugs into the headhunt under the rear seat, to add both Carplay and Android . You might message them to see if compatible with the 2019 i3.

Well, Bimmer Tech was showing their MMI Prime as being incompatible with my VIN. After emailing with their support my VIN now shows compatibility.
 
I contacted them recently about this as I have 2020 reg one and they said they almost got a box working with this version of car! I also want android auto too! He said it should be ready soon! :)
