    This did not work well at all. I could not find a channel that didn't have too much static. I returned it the next day

    It was fine until it stopped working. I’ve had it for like two weeks and it had a staticky noise but I was able to ignore it, now it just doesn’t work. Don’t want your money on this, but a different product.

    It does what its supposed to and thats it. The sound quality is horrible. Constant static from every music app playing from my phone (Galaxy S21 Ultra). AM radio sounds better.

    Excessive static, basically useless ): the same channels don't usually work the next time around. Searching for a decent station wastes too much time

    Useless, dangerously distracting

    The quality of this item is what I'd expect from something I spent $5 on. It's terrible at finding free frequencies, the sound is almost drowned out by static, the connection between the software and the device keeps getting lost, the Bluetooth connection drops when that happens as well, the display is hard to see expect at a very particular angle, and that is hard to achieve without the gizmo getting in the way of the gearshift lever because its cord is so short. Attending to it proved a dangerous distraction to driving.

    The only thing that works good is the charging port other then that no matter what station it's on you hear white noise. The sound quality isn't very good.

    Soon as I purchased this went to put this on my car. App is great, Car Battery Monitor and Car Finder. Find radio station for bluetooth was the worst experience. when It tries to find an empty radio station, It feels randomized and I always get static which is annoying. Returning this product and deleting the app is the most satisfying experience I’ve ever had.

    This Bluetooth FM Radio receiver is not worth it. Not even in the instructions could I find how to manually set the radio frequency I want to use. While the auto search feature for a free empty, not broadcasting radio is nice, it is far from perfect. When it "finds" a usable frequency, it is not. When it is free, you do hear your music but with a lot of static. I tried on 2 different vehicles and results were the same. Stay away from this product.

    Don't use them for newer cars. It is decent with older ones but just use AUX if you have it.
