Mirror Link is no longer supported by Samsung and many other manufacturers. Existing users may continue to use the App, but if operating system is updated or the app removed and reinstalled it may no longer work.

The alternative is Android Auto or Apple CarPlay (if your vehicle is compatible).

Sygic Premium is a GPS software app, which should still work with Android Auto.

Note:
Samsung shuts down some more services
Samsung has now decided to end support for MirrorLink starting June 1, 2020. It will not be available to new users after that. Existing users will be able to continue using it, however, if they factory reset their device, connect to a new vehicle, clear app data or even update the firmware on their device, they’ll lose Mirrorlink.

I recently found about MirrorLink.

So there is no sense buying MirrorLink now? It will not work?

I have an iPhone.

Is there any alternative to MirrorLink? (To get iphone screen on car built in display?)

Not on your current telematics system - it is too old for that.

You can't 'buy' Mirrorlink, it was only available on later telematics units, but is now no longer supported and really only for Android phone users. Once you upgrade the operating system on an Android phone, you will lose Mirrorlink in any case as it is not supported now.

iPhones use CarPlay and again your telematics system is years too early for this. CarPlay and Android Auto was only available on vehicles from about 2015 and depends on the Head Units fitted to the vehicle.

So there is no way to display phone screen content on e.g. RT4 navigation?

My idea was to keep RT4 as is but to use Google maps on phone just in some specific situation when I need real time traffic. It would be super cool to use built in display for this.
