Will sync3.4 connect wirelessly with Android Auto when Android 11 goes live?
I'm on the Beta program running 11 on my pixel 4xl, works with the cable but I'm stumped on the wireless.

No, Sync 3 will never support wireless AA.

Pixel 4 with Android 10 AA already has option for wireless connectivity anyway. Although once again Sync 3 is not compatible.

Ford have announced Sync 4 will support it - https://www.engadget.com/2019-10-30-for ... -auto.html
Not sure it's that great of an idea without a phone that has wireless charging. Hot pockets and dead batteries.

I have put in for one of these https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/aawireless
Still be months away but if it works then I will charge phone from a socket in the centre console rather than run leads everywhere. Also means I can then give it all the current it needs to charge properly.

They seem pretty confident in the tech, came up in my news feed the other day, maybe I can ditch the front cable after all

I've been using Screen2Auto for over a year now.
It does a lot more than what standard Auto will allow ( Like run any GPS app ) and it does have a wireless option if you have an old Android phone to make use of. Basically just wirelessly mirrors to the other phone plugged in permanently, works a treat.
