Part 2. How to Play YouTube Music in Car

Just now, we have talked about some common ways to play YouTube Music in car, next let's figure out more efficient ways in detail:

• USB Cable Connection

  

  It's often the prior and easiest choice to use a USB cable to the connection to a car. Follow these steps to play YouTube Music via USB cable:

  1. Find the built-in USB port, then attach the one end of a USB cable to your phone and plug the other end into the designated USB port.

  

  2. Verify the connection between your phone and car by checking for any notifications on the car's display screen.
  3. Launch the app in your phone and play the music you like.
  4. Set a comfortable volume that suits for in-car listening.

  This approach keeps superior audio quality without any loss of information. However, it is particularly used on the old devices. An aux input will be more universal and available on most smartphones, tablets, CD players and some music instruments.

• AUX Cable Connection

  

  1. Ensure you have an AUX audio cable compatible with your device.
  2. Plug one end of the AUX cable into the headphone jack of your smartphone, MP3 player, or other audio source, and the other end into your car's AUX input port.
  3. Switch the input source to AUX mode on your car's audio unit.
  4. Play YouTube Music on your audio source, and the music will play through your car's speakers.

  The chief benefit of an aux input is that it's widely used. Yet, aux cords are easy to be worn out with inferior sound quality. Also, what to do if you are not accessible to a cable? Bluetooth comes in handy at times.

• Bluetooth Connection

  

  1. Turn on the Bluetooth on your smartphone, tablet or laptop.
  2. Identify your smartphone's Bluetooth and pair it with your car's navigation system (or in-car Bluetooth device). Usually, a pairing code is required, but modern devices often pair automatically.
  3. Once connected, open the YouTube Music app, select, and play your favorite music. The music will wirelessly transmit through Bluetooth to your car's audio system.

  By this easy and wireless operation, one can enjoy music at a relatively shorter time, but this may drain your phone's battery and degrade the sound quality.

• By Apple CarPlay

  

  If you use an iPhone, set up CarPlay by connecting your iPhone to your vehicle is a good choice.

  1. Before start your car, make sure you Siri is operational and confirm that your car supports CarPlay functionality.
  2. Connecting iPhone to the vehicle by using a USB cable.
  3. Tap on your iPhone settings, find and click the "General > CarPlay" in order, and search for your vehicle name and click it.
  4. Click "Customize", then locate and add the “YouTube Music" app in the application list.
  5. After your car display screen shows the app, you are free to ask Siri to play YouTube Music tracks you like.

  Note: if your car is equipped with both wireless and USB CarPlay capabilities, connect your iPhone to the car's USB port for the first time, the next time you connect your iPhone to the CarPlay, you will be hinted to connect wirelessly.

• Via Android Auto

  2. Click the “Smartphone Connection" button, and pair your phone with the vehicle by tap on "Connect New Device".
