To further enhance smartphone connectivity, each model is equipped with Pioneer's AppRadio Mode (previously known as Advanced AppMode), which offers an "AppRadio-like" experience for both iPhone and Android owners, giving users the ability to access and control dozens of apps directly from the navigation receiver's large touchscreen display when connected to iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, or a compatible Android smartphone.
