Hello Community! I have a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra without a 3.5mm jack. How do I play music from it on my 2011 RAV4 Limited? The car has bluetooth that I have paired with my phone but it only connects for calls, not music. I have looked into bluetooth adapaters but from what I understand, the sound quality will not be great w/o a wired connection from the adapter to the phone. I will be thankful for any advice on setting up music from my phone to the car. ---

Toyota didn’t add factory Android Auto or Apple Carplay until about 2016. I have a 2014. And I bought an aftermarket system with Apple CarPlay. ---

If you want to stick with a wired connection, they make adapters that give you a headphone jack. This article (from a web site that I follow regularly) lists a number of them: > **[Best USB-C audio adapters for Galaxy S20 & Galaxy S21 in 2022](https://www.androidcentral.com/best-usb-c-audio-adapters-galaxy-s20)** > > Audio adapters for any budget. As for the Bluetooth adapter, you might not even notice a quality difference in a noisy listening environment like that. Even if you do, most people would feel the convenience outweighs a minor quality difference. ---

You may need to enable playing music to your bluetooth device in the phone settings. Here’s one youtube on how to select apps/device output: [Galaxy S22/S22+/Ultra: How to Play Media Sound From App You Select on a Separate Audio Device - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9k4dDwsoNo) ---

Hmm, cannot say about your S22, my A32 plays anything through Bluetooth connection. Perhaps you need a new audio system for your car. ---

Are you able to transfer the music files from the phone to a USB memory stick using a desktop computer, then play the music from that on your car? If so, might be the easiest solution to hi fidelity sound. ---

Hello community, thank you for the response. The solution turned out to be quite simple. A USB-C (to the phone) to 3.5 mm jack connector (to the Aux port in the car) did the trick. I bought it for 15 bucks from Auto Trader and am sure one can find cheaper elsewhere. ---

That is indeed a simple solution. Thanks for the update OP. I would have never guessed a usb to audio jack would work. ---
