  • QuestionWill this work on a stock 2018 Acura RDX?

    Asked by BillS.

    • Answer We do recommend testing them to see if your vehicle is setup for the wireless CarPlay adapter. Great device. If your vehicle has the built-in Apple icon for CarPlay then you should be OK. Contact [email protected] for more info and assistance.

  • QuestionIt works and the the next day it doesn’t. Phone says device not supported. I can forget device in Bluetooth and repair and it’ll work for one day and repeat same issue. iPhone 12 IOS 18.3.2

    Asked by Travis.

    • Answer Take the unit back immediately. These are not compatible with many many vehicles. Some car menufacturers built their stereos in such a way that they can only get Apple carplay with a USB connection and not wirelessly...even if it did work for a day or a few hours. For more tips or support on this contact [email protected].

  • QuestionWill this work on a 2015 Chevrolet Camaro?

    Asked by Kev.

    • Answer It might. Just depends on how the stereo in the vehicle was manufactured. If the stereo has the Apple CarPlay icon and back-end software built in, even when your iphone is not connected with USB cable, then it should work. If you need help setting up contact [email protected].

  • QuestionWill this work on a 2018 Dodge Journey?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer 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. So definitely give it a try but don't wait too long to return if it's not compatible.

  • QuestionDoes my radio have to have apple CarPlay?

    Asked by Me.

    • Answer Yes, you need Apple CarPlay already built into the car. The adapter itself does not give you ACP, it just provides the wireless connection. In most vehicles you have to connect your iPhone to the car via USB cable because that is how the car grabs the Apple software. Most cars up until the 2024 models (depending on the maker) needed that USB connection to get the icon and software for ACP to operate.

  • QuestionWill this work on a 2016 Mercedes c300

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Thanks 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.
