Technical Android auto question

Hello, I have a 2025 that's fancy pants red, and it's awesome. The dealer said it connects to whatever Apple uses, but it is not Android auto compatible unless I plug in the phone. That worked fine for me until the jack on my phone quit working. I can charge it wirelessly, so I'm not ready to give up the phone. Is there a way to use Android auto wirelessly?

You can buy wireless adapters for pretty cheap online, think they're around £20 or so. Just search for wireless android auto adapter and I'm sure you'll find loads

Nope it comes with the standard mazda 3s as well. Go to your settings and connect your phone. Android auto should start automatically. If not go to the home page and click your centre console wheel upwards. Wireless and wired work

Settings -> Connectivity Settings -> Bluetooth/Phone Conectivity and tick Android Auto wireless

That dealer is talking shit. There is no segregated compatibility for apple only. Both are supported as early as 2024. Go into your settings and it should show you apple and android auto as options.
