Subaru models such as the Navigation-equipped 2013 Outback and Legacy models, and the 2014 Forester feature Aha Radio. The Aha system allows you to connect your iOS or Android smartphone to web-based audio programming through the Aha app. Aha is a free, cloud-based app that is as easy to use as a car radio. There are over 30,000 stations including internet radio, personalized music, audiobooks, Facebook, Twitter, restaurant and hotel searches, weather, and more.
Setting up the Aha system in your Subaru is very simple. To begin, you must download the app either from the iTunes store or Android marketplace. After the Aha app is installed, you create an account and form a list of your favorite stations on your smartphone that you would like to have easy access to in your Subaru. In order to sync your phone to your Subaru, either connect your iPhone through the USB port, or your Android phone through the Bluetooth System. After your smartphone has been connected you are able to control, view, and hear Aha content through the navigation system of the vehicle.
The Aha system allows you to easily access and organize your favorite web content on your phone, and seamlessly syncs the experience with your Subaru. For example, if you are listening to your favorite song on your phone and then need to drive somewhere, when you get in the car and connect your phone the Aha system will continue playing the song exactly where you left off. The Aha system can even read tweets out loud to you while you drive! With Aha technology, Subaru drivers are able to access information and multimedia entertainment in the safest way possible.
