    The Aluratek Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Wireless Adapter is a total game-changer! Setup was super easy plug it in once, and it connects automatically every time. No more messy cables or fumbling with my phone. The wireless connection is fast, audio is crystal clear, and both CarPlay and Android Auto work flawlessly. It feels like I upgraded my entire infotainment system for a fraction of the cost! Compact, sleek, and reliable. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a smoother, smarter drive. Thanks, Best Buy, for such an amazing find!

    Nifty gadget with a few shortcomings. Installation and set up was easy. Device paired quickly with my phone (iPhone). CarPlay engages rather quickly. Downside is sometimes when the device pairs, there is no audio for music or streaming apps. The device then needs to be removed from the USB dock on the car and then reinstalled to get audio.

    I purchased this product because in order to use car play in my car I used to have to plug my phone into the USB with a cord every time I got in my car and remember to unplug my phone when getting out of my car. After numerous times forgetting to unplug my phone and accidentally leaving it in the car when running in somewhere real quick I ordered this product so that I could have wireless CarPlay and it honestly couldn’t have been any simpler. Once the product arrived I took it out of the box, plugged it into my USB, and connected my phone to it via Bluetooth. No other set up was required no apps to download just plug and pair. Now whenever I enter my car it automatically connects and provides me with wireless CarPlay no need to ever take my phone out of my purse or worry about remembering to unplug/plug in my phone. Super convenient and very easy to set up.

    Works Well but Not Compatible with All Car Screens

    This adapter works well in many situations and makes using Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wirelessly much easier. Setup is straightforward, and the connection is generally stable once paired. However, it doesn’t work with all car screens, which can be frustrating if your vehicle isn’t fully compatible. While it’s a good solution for supported cars, the limited compatibility means it’s not a universal fix. Overall, it’s decent, but be sure to check if your car is supported before buying.

    This device worked perfectly and was really easy to connect to my phone via bluetooth. I did not notice any lag different from connecting with a cord. The size of the device was also perfect for my vehicle. I would recommend to anyone that wants a wireless option for Android Auto.

    Handy Wireless CarPlay

    This little device made the job of connecting our Apple iPhones to our car screen so much easier! Just plug it in and follow the easy instructions. Very nice since it can remember two phones. Simply press the button to switch between them connecting. No more disconnects from janky cables or dirty phone ports.

    I own several wireless adapters, each working with some success on either Apple Car Play or Android Auto. This one caught my eye at the right time- I had been using an iPhone and switched to an Android phone, and I wanted to enjoy a wireless connection with my new phone. This device is the size of a small thumb drive. I have native wired Apple Car Play and Android Auto in my 2023 Toyota Camry. Other devices had allowed me to enjoy a wireless connection, but required attaching the device to to the USB-A female connection on my car using a cable. With this device, I could just plug it in directly, pair it over Bluetooth using my phone, and enjoy wireless Android Auto in minutes, no cable required! It had the simplest set up I had ever used, and it has worked flawlessly since installation. It works with both Car Play and Android Auto, but I have not had an iPhone to test its performance on Apple devices. I highly reccomend this adapter!

    This little doggle really works. Used it in my 2021 Jeep Wrangler and it connected right away. My only issue (sort of) is the BT range on this thing is insane and while in my home, tries to connect with the jeep (constant power to usb). The sound is great and extremely easy to use

    Finally don't have to connect my phone every time I go in my car. Definitely a convenience thing. Although there is some lag on the audio. I've disconnected and reconnected the dongle a few times like suggested in other reviews but no luck. Other than that, pretty much just works.

    This had made using Android Auto so much easier! Sometimes it doesn't connect automatically, but 90% of the time it's already connected and running faster than I would have been able to plug in my phone. I definitely recommend it if you don't want to keep your phone plugged in constantly. There is a little bit of lag, but it's minimal and everything works how it should.

    I am actually really surprised by this! Coming from the age of FM transmitters, I wasn't very hopefully. But this android auto adapter has been used on a 9 hour road trip both ways and didn't drop once. Once connected for the first time, it takes about 10 seconds for it to automatically connect the next time I get in my car. People also mentioned experiencing lag. I haven't experienced any lag using this so far. Happy with it so far! Would buy again.

    Great wireless option for iPhone

    I really like this device. It works great and keeps me from having to mess with plugging my phone into the USB port every time I want to use CarPlay with my iPhone 14 Pro Max. When I start the car I plug this into the port and after about 10 seconds or less the CarPlay interface shows up on the screen. I unplug it when I turn the car off because my car’s USB port supplies power to the port even with the car off and my phone will sometimes want to connect to it when I am at home. Anyway, it’s great and worth every penny.

    I bought this so I could go wireless and it does the job great and fits my needs perfectly. It connects the second I open up the door and all the apps work as they should. The reason it didn't get 5 stars is due to occasional clipping of music for a split second. It's very minimal and random when it happens.

    It works really well. I especially like that it connects automatically when I get in to my car and with the push of a button we can switch to my wife’s phone. It is very easy to set up and it feels as if it is a plug and play. Not having to use a cable to connect my phone to use CarPlay makes less stuff in the dashboard area
