Latest AppRadio App Update Allows Custom Backgrounds [Video]

Pioneer's own AppRadio app has been updated to version 1.8.1 (iOS). This update includes one feature that was perhaps missed the most (apart from the glitch fixes). The app now allows you to use your own custom background on the AppRadio. Previously this couldn't be done directly from the device.

iPhone 5 Compatibility With AppRadio Remains Questionable

If you were lucky enough to preorder the new iPhone 5 on September 14 you will most likely have it delivered to your doorstep tomorrow. The biggest difference for me with Apple's latest device over the previous generations is the change in connectors. The flagship 30-pin connection port is gone and has made way to the new 9-pin Lightning port. This means that the plethora of third-party devices with 30-pin connections won't necessarily work with the iPhone 5.

Pioneer Confirms AppRadio Compatibility With iOS 6; No Word On The iPhone 5!

Pioneer Electronics has sent out emails confirming compatibility of their AppRadio line of products with Apple's latest iOS 6. All head units with Advanced App Mode will work with iOS 6 running on the iPhone 4S and 4. However, there is still no word on whether the new iPhone 5 which ships tomorrow will work with AppRadio through the 30-pin to Lightning adapter.
