Appradio live is a new app available for download on iTunes Store, android guys can you check and see if it's available to you and let us know.

Appradio live does not give connected services ability. Maybe it will maybe it won't in future, only pioneer knows and there is no mention of it on there web site.

It gives you stitcher radio, feedly news, and RDIO as sources

It works pretty smooth after you create and link accounts.

It gives you one screen, looks tiled with weather in one tile, source in another, news in another, and notifications in another.

IPhone users must use digital av adapter in order for it to work, and in smartphone settings choose the digital av adapter.

And ya, ya, ya. I need to clean my truck did a lot of traveling these past few weeks and haven't had a chance

LOL! same here when I took pictures

Looks nice. I didn't realize I needed HDMI for this and didn't have it installed. Will avicsync also require HDMI? It's odd that Carplay can get through with just the lightning adapter but the Pioneer apps need HDMI.

Pioneer doesn't have the same low level access to the system as apple does and for the carplay system to be working i would hazard to guess that there is some work being done by the headunit as well. This is why carplay requires a pioneer upgrade and why only the NEX units can handle it, while in contrast the iPhone currently can do its part with the already launched 7.1 software.

This is a theory of course. Until someone with experience with coding gets their hand on a radio with carplay software we won't know how exactly it works.

Not saying you're wrong, but I wonder how much work the head unit would actually have to do with Carplay since we know apps are going to be added and Carplay will most likely advance with new versions of iOS. You would think car manufacturers would want the head units in their vehicles working with Carplay with each upgrade for the foreseeable future. 

If Carplay does advance I would think appradio would become redundant. Add a weather app to Carplay and it's almost on par. 

Maybe but the new app is very well done. It isn't just the weather. It's the speed that the app allows you to jump between different services is brilliantly executed. I'm very happy with the new app.

Rub it in!

I love this layout. Pretty exciting. But I hate the NAV portion. 

Just downloaded this from the app store (free for now).  Pretty cool and seems a lot more intuative than the normal AR mode & EC Touch (maybe a few less features).  Here's a quick video showing a few features (sorry about the quality)

Honestly this app should replace the Appradio app period and just have other apps in some folder.

Agree, this is a great app. I used the internet radio for a while today and it was exceptional. I also wish Waze could replace the nav option in Live.

So if this requires HDMI as was mentioned before, does that mean it won't work on the 5000? I'm trying to decide between the 5000 and the 6000. I kind of figure I'll be just fine with the 5000, especially once Carplay is released. Is there anything I'm really going to miss out on by going with the 5000 vs the 6000 once we get the firmware update with Carplay? Sorry for the slight thread jack.

I peeped it I like the music integration a bit more but I am not truly impressed with it. I could not seem to find navigation other then to get home when I tried to get directions it opened Waze.  If it launched the app on its own it would be a step in the right direction but it seems like it still wants to open the appraido app and then the "live app".

That looks pretty cool, not available in Irish app store yet 

Can it support any other apps like spotify?

I assume it only works with ios7?

The 5000 can still handle Appradio mode if you buy the pioneer adaptor that gives it a vga port. Honestly if you want to save money go for the 4000. It's the best bang for buck imo.

The 5000 and 6000 do not exist to me....4000, 7000 or 8000. The 4000 can get navigation with the U260 add on, but it will be more expensive than just getting a 7000 from the start.

Bare in mind that some places get no cell service, which would be your navigation-demise, for the 4000. Amazon sells the 7000 for $830, which is only $130 more than the MSRP of the 4000.

If you're to install something into your dash, you'd like for it to be reliable by providing redundancy of navigation technologies. To be able to coordinate directions via smartphone and satellite is what you really want.

I just installed nav free into my phone. Full offline maps with many of the features of the other navs. I usually use waze but I use nav free when I have no internet.

Has anyone tried this out with an iPhone 4?  The app listing in the iTMS show compatibility with iPhone 4, but I'm wondering if the 4 would work without the AV adapter.  Just a curiosity on my part!

Which does nothing for you, if you lose/break your phone.

Since I can't use this now and only watch the videos, does this appear to be Pioneer's version of Carplay. Are the maps used from the phone or do they interact with the built in NAV? Also the iPod interface seems very similar to the Carplay implementation. 

If that's the case, I really don't see why this app wouldn't work with through lightning to USB on on iPhone after the Carplay firmware updates.

I'm not going to plan my life on the worst case scenarios. My car could get stolen, then what do I do?

My phone is always on me. Your example of losing service is something that has happened, which is why I have nav free. Could my phone get stolen? Sure. Has that happened in the 7 years I've been using smart phones? No.

Definitly needs some adjusting, I like the music and overall flow of the app and will use it for a while.  This now launches for me right away when I start my car (using activator to launch on Bluetooth connect) and it bypasses the stock appradio app (so no warning message on the phone).  At least we know Pioneer hasn't completely forgotten about the AR users

No spotify as of now.  Hopefully more 3rd party apps can get incorporated.  The app says iOS7 or later
