Q: QuestionWill this work on a 2015 Tucson I have Bluetooth in my car(2 answers)
A: AnswerAs long as the CarPlay app is built into the vehicle, then yes. If the vehicle has to take the app and functionality from the USB direct connection then no. There are many vehicles that must have the direct USB connection. If you purchase one try it immediately and return the unit if you cannot get it working within the first 3 or 4 days. Contact [email protected] for more info.Answered by Aluratek
- A: AnswerThe main thing is to turn Bluetooth on one of the iPhones. You can only use one at a time.

Q: QuestionWill this work on a 2016 Mercedes c300(1 answer)
A: AnswerThanks for the note on the adapter. See my notes below on setup and how to reset the unit and see if this helps. Don't wait too long to simply return the unit for a refund or replacement. These units are not compatible with all vehicles. So test things out quickly. NOTES ON COMPATIBILITY If the CarPlay or Android Auto icon on your car stereo does not show unless your iPhone or Android phone is plugged into the car -- directly via USB -- then the adapter will likely not work with your vehicle. Some vehicles only get the app from the phone and do not have the software built into the vehicle. The CarPlay or Android Auto icon must show even when your phone is not directly connected to the vehicle via USB cable. There are some exceptions with certain models where the icon will show but the phone still needs to be directly connected for the vehicle to use the software off the phone. In some cases the adapter will not be able to use all features of the vehicle stereo. SETUP Once plugged in and the vehicle is on, connect your phone's Bluetooth to the Aluratek CarPlay or Android Auto adapter. It is ok if your Phone's Bluetooth is also connected to the vehicle's Bluetooth as well...but make sure the phone is connected to the Aluratek adapter. You can disconnect from the unit and reconnect to establish a better connection if needed. - Note: You should not need to use your car or phone WIFI for this, not unless the Bluetooth does not work.Answered by Aluratek
- A: AnswerMost likely not. In general they are more compatible with vehicles from 2015 and on, and only when the vehicle already has the CarPlay built in with icon.
