Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is my favorite wireless adapter I’ve used, and highly recommend it. Although there is a bit of a lag when playing music, it still is high quality.

After figuring out how to set it up the first time it works pretty well. It works well with both Android and iOS. If you're the only person using the car it will connect automatically and you won't even have to think about it. If you're not the last person who drove it will try to connect to that persons phone first so you have to wait for it to fail (half a minute maybe). But after that it works fine again. Not much of a hassle for me but that's the only reason it doesn't get 5 stars.

The product works as intended as someone previously mentioned they’ve had ran into an issue where they need to unplug it and plug it back into the USB port. I’ve had to do the same but only one time. As with most of these type of products, there is a very slight delay like a millisecond delay when changing music, other than that audio comes out normal and it’s great to not have to always plug in my phone to access Google maps

These are my 2nd wireless carplay adapter. My previous once, different brand, worked ok. This model appealed to me because of the ability to connect to phones. I have been really pleased with their function and quality. My old once, when diconnecting from the car while on a call would do a lound, annoying noise to the other person on the phone and most of the time, they would hang up. These toggle on and off the car when already connected to a call with ease (slight delay, but no annoying noise for the other caller).

Works better than the other one I have. There is no lag and less interference works great.

Easy fast setup. Now my radio is set automatically to Android play. No wired connection needed.

It'd quick to connect and works very well compared to the motorola version that died on us.

It works great. My phone connects right away every time and there’s not a noticeable lag.

Solid connectivity and performance. This has been the most reliable android auto dongle we've owned.

It works as advertised. It functions like my phone is plugged in. The biggest issue I have noticed is the usb port stays powered when the vehicle is turned off so my phone keeps trying to connect to it. I realize this is a vehicle issue and not this product. I'm mentioning it so others are aware that it could be a problem if you are within range of the vehicle and are jot actively using it.

This car play adapter works great! I purchased it to stream Sirius/XM in a new leased vehicle that did not come equipped with Sirius/XM. The reason I wanted wireless was because I did not want to plug my phone into the USB port which may ruin the phone's battery being constantly plugged in. Many other adapters are expensive. I couldn't pass this up because the price was ideal!

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.

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!

Using this with a 2024 Hyundai Elantra, a model that only has a wired CarPlay option. I'm a bit of a techie so setting it up was pretty easy, the instructions are straightforward and simple to follow. It includes 2 extension cables depending on your USB port and location, which I didn't need to use. I made sure I update iOS to the latest update and the car infotainment system is also up-to-date. After setting up it worked instantly. No lag at all, as if I had the iPhone tethered with the USB cord. Left the card for a few minutes and came back and instantly worked again. Very happy. Unfortunately, reliability is not its strong point. When using it, it would often disconnect in the middle of a drive. And not just disconnect, but a "connect to bluetooth" screen comes on that you cannot get rid of unless you hard reset your infotainment unit or leave your car and come back so everything resets. Not something you want to happen when driving. The same issue happens a lot when starting up the car, it just cannot find the phone, giving a weird connect to bluetooth message which you cannot get rid of unless you remove the device and insert it back in. I'd say it works maybe 50% of the time.

This thing works perfectly! Exactly what I needed to be wireless in the car! Great price too!

Connectivity is pretty consistent. Once in a while my phone wont connect, but it’s quickly resolved by unplugging it then plugging it back in. My only real criticism is the delay. At least a full second delay between a command and the action, probably longer. It may not be the same with a different car, still recommend the product though.

I replaced an older adapter with this model. Compact size, loads quickly, and works great.

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!

the device is very easy to set up, pairing is seamless, apple car play runs smoothly.

This is a pretty nifty adapter. You can use both android auto and car play. The adapter is small and can be inserted into the USB (like a flash drive) or can be used on the included USB adapter that allows the product to sit flat on whichever surface you like. The connection to my phone is always fast and is not frequently interrupted. Id say buy it as I am happy that I did.
