Hello
Picked up my second Panda Pop on Friday (traded my last one in).
I’m very happy with the Panda but there’s been a few changes to this 2019 version...
air con - I didn’t request/pay for this! But apparently there was a run of cars with it added so I got it as standard....
Rear speakers- have disappeared! Which is a shame as I like to deafen the kids whilst having an adult conversation in the front.
No CD player - which leads me onto the problem I have which is the USB. Can’t get it to recognise my iphone (or a USB key loaded with music). I shall speak to the dealer next week but thought I’d stop hy here first.

Nice to ‘meet’ you all.

Me again. Just wondering if I can pick your brains.

I took my car back to the dealer to look at the USB connectivity problem. They managed to get android phones working but have said it is not compatible with my IPhone. Nothing can be done. So effectively I have a radio and a charging USB. No other way to listen to music...

Anyone got any ideas? Is this just a ‘thing’ now..... Fiat and IPhone are not compatible??

Thank you

You should be able to listen to MP3 files on a USB stick plugged into the USB port.

Android is microsoft..same as the FIAT system.
Blue and me

Android is actually Google developed. Based on Linux with a modified Kernal.

Thanks for your replies.

I have tried a USB key with varying results... i was just keen on listening to podcasts etc by just downloading straight to my phone and plugging into the USB.

I have the basic model pop so it doesn’t come with Blue and Me. But would this have worked with Apple anyway?

Dealer has been pretty rubbish. Just said it’s not compatible full-stop.

It should play MP3 files from any device via USB. If you connect your iphone with the AUX ( 3.5 mm jack ) socket and select AUX on the radio it should play any audio that is coming from the iphone.

Unfortunately there’s no AUX socket!!

Apple iphone audio files are m4a format so likely not compatible. Only mp3
Only way is to convert iphone's music to mp3 on a USB stick.

An AUX input can be done quite easily. I did this on my old Lounge.
