    Works great when using. Only downfall is I can’t keep it plugged in at all times for charging purposes as it causes the other radio stations to have static.

    It’s a decent Bluetooth radio player.

    Works ok, the only thing that bothers me is when I am charging my phone I can hear a buzzing sound in the background while playing music.

    It’s very helpful for my Huyndai Sonata 2008. I can connect it with my phone and enjoy the Direction from Maps with car’s speaker. Also you can enjoy your favorite music from Spotify with your car system. That’s really great.

    Works great on my older car that don’t have WiFi or any connection for smart phone. Still a little background sound interference, but not too bad.

    Terrible, I have an older Roav and it is hands down the best fm transmitter I’ve ever used, so when I was walking around I picked a new one up for my other truck and it is beyond disappointing. I have no idea what happened between the old one I have and this but I would absolutely stay away from these now.

    I have a 2001 Jaguar which had a propitiatory phone, which was of no use in USA. The Anker allowed me to charge my cell phone and connect it through FM into the cars radio and allow me to play music and have phone usage of onboard system.

    [Employee of bestbuy] I rented a car for a roadtrip and unfortunately the Bluetooth wasn’t working so I rushed to Best Buy to buy this and followed the instructions and for about 20 I couldn’t get it to work. I ended up returning it right there and buying a aux cord and a adapter for my iPhone.

    Perfect charger/transmitter for an older model car. Wife loves the two-USB charger plugs and can hear a call from me to her car. Should have done this years ago.

    This unit did not function unless the app had been started, over and over again I had to return to the app when re connecting. Too much to do when you are getting in and out

    Decent transmitter, but would like for it to disconnect when the car turns off instead of having to disconnect with my phone every time I get out.

    Works well as described. Connects easily with the phone. You will need to download the app to use it but not an issue. It comes with a "locate my car" feature if you use it. The buttons on it can change youtube music.

    My car, a 2013, does not have blue tooth connectivity. Best Buy employee said this free standing blue tooth device was the only model available in store. The sound on my end is fine, however the people on the other end of the conversation complain that my voice is low and that it’s difficult to hear me. Oh well, it’s better than having a car accident due to holding onto a cellphone. The device works off of my radio and the microphone in my cellphone.

    I think this could be a great little gadget if I can figure it out. I got the radio station correct but still not coming in clear to others I'm talking to.

    I’ve had many FM transmitters over the years and this is by far the best. I’m using it in a 1995 Jaguar, built well before the advent of Bluetooth, and it works great. Strong signal and clear calls. I stream Apple Music on all my drives!

    Love the product. It work pretty well on the car. Can’t recommend it enough. If you have a car and need a charge port this is the item to use.

    It works, but it is a long shot from clear audio; I have scanned every station in my area, and none of them work that great; it's worth swapping your deck out with one that has Bluetooth if you want semi-decent sound quality. If you don't mind subpar radio sound quality, this will work - I think they make a pro version that works a little better and is worth getting over this one.
