The [infotainment in many vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toyota-audio-multimedia) is often lacking some key functionalities, so the 'Vehroot Shelf' has been created as a way for you to incorporate your own device into your car's dashboard. The unit will work with your smartphone or tablet and will work to provide an impressive experience when you're traveling the streets of your city.

The 'Vehroot Shelf' works with any kind of device and will work to keep it securely in place when they vehicle is in motion or stopped. It also features Bluetooth, [Qi wireless charging capabilities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nano-wireless-car-charger) as well as [Qualcomm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polestar-3) aptX HD audio technology to ensure the best experience possible when taking calls. The device acknowledges the need for more streamlined solutions for vehicles as consumers seek to enhance their cars using aftermarket equipment.
