Media Control

Complete control from every seat: the Media Control app turns your tablet or smartphone into a remote control for your Volkswagen infotainment system.

You can use it, for example, to show your current location, how far away you are from your destination and how much longer it will take to get there on your vehicle's display screen. So you can answer the question of "Are we nearly there yet?" with just a quick glance. It's easy to enter a destination into the navigation system, whether you take it from a Google® search or your mobile device's contacts list, calendar or diary1.
In the mood for music? You can control the balance, fading and volume from the palm of your hand. If you fancy listening to the radio, you can select any station you like by searching automatically or manually, or even entering a frequency directly. It goes without saying that you can listen to your own songs and albums too, either through your infotainment system or an external audio source connected via Bluetooth. If your infotainment system is connected to the Internet, the Media Control app lets you search online for your favourite songs and artists. Everything is under your control: you can turn external device access to your infotainment system off at any time and reactivate it later as required. That's what makes great infotainment!

This Volkswagen app requires a vehicle-specific data interface on the "Discover Nav Pro" or "Discover Nav" radio and navigation system. The range of functions available will vary depending on the infotainment system's date of manufacture. Please contact your Volkswagen partner if you have any questions.

^If you are selecting a Volkswagen ID.3, ID.4, ID.5 or ID.7 then prices shown are the MDP (Manufacturer's Direct Price).  This is the price set by Volkswagen which you pay for the vehicle.  Volkswagen ID vehicles are sold by Volkswagen UK, a trading division of Volkswagen Group United Kingdom Limited (please note that you will need to visit an authorised Volkswagen Retailer (acting as agent for Volkswagen UK) to order, purchase and take delivery of your Volkswagen ID vehicle).  The MDP includes delivery to an authorised Volkswagen Retailer (acting as agent for Volkswagen UK), number plates, new vehicle registration fee, the first year's Vehicle Excise Duty and VAT (calculated at 20%).  You can find out more about the Volkswagen model for selling ID vehicles by clicking https://www.volkswagen.co.uk/en/legal/mdp-explained.html.

If you are selecting any other Volkswagen vehicle (excluding the Volkswagen ID.3, ID.4, ID.5 and ID.7) then prices listed are Manufacturer’s ‘On the road’ Recommended Retail Price. Actual prices are set by Volkswagen authorised retailers in their sole discretion – always obtain these prices from your chosen Volkswagen Retailer.  Recommended On-The-Road (OTR) retail prices include: delivery charge, number plates, new vehicle registration fee, the first year's Vehicle Excise Duty and VAT (calculated at 20%).
