Advanced remote control

Pioneer’s ARC app allows you to control and customise your compatible Pioneer car stereo system in a safe and easy to use way. It lets you browse your favourite music, switch sources, launch Spotify or other third-party apps and customise the illumination colours and audio settings on your car stereo system, all by using the large touchscreen area of your smartphone.

Enjoy 3rd party apps

You can launch a selection of 3rd party apps on your smartphone – like Spotify, MIXTRAX and Navigation maps – directly from within the Pioneer ARC environment.

Optimise sound via
Advanced Audio Settings

Getting the best possible sound in your car became a lot easier with Pioneer ARC, as you can simply draw an EQ curve on your smartphone’s touchscreen according to your personal taste. What’s more, extensive settings like crossover points and time alignment are much more comprehensible and straightforward as they are presented pictorially in a centralised window on your smartphone.

Customise illumination

Pioneer ARC encourages you to choose from more than 200,000 colours for the illumination of your car stereo’s screen and buttons. Change colours at will, all in an easy and intuitive way.

Use the app to switch colours
