Hi, does this support Wireless CarPlay and AA?

Purely wired for now, they are talking about a wireless version but that will be 2022 at the absolute earliest and the cost will be significantly higher.

Do they plan on offering native resolution and/or widescreen resolution Android Auto? My understanding is that the module supports widescreen Carplay, lower resolution than factory, but Android Auto is still stretched.

Fast charging is definitely on the wishlist too.
