    This was a great “quick fix” to be able to play recordings from my phone on the car radio, as well as stream I❤️Radio. Device searches for a clear frequency and then broadcasts your phone to the car radio. If you run navigation on the phone, it will automatically override whatever you’re playing. There can be some static, but great value for the price. Plus, unlike installing a new radio with USB, you can take this device with you to plug in to rental cars, friends’ cars, etc., as long as there’s a cigarrette lighter.

    The device works really well, is easy to use and gets decent reception but its still just an FM transmitter so if you're an audiophile who wants crystal clear sound at all times this isn't for you.

    My wife and I use this product on a regular basis. The channel search feature allows us to quickly fine a channel that provides the clearest and best quality audio. Being able to charge a USB device while using the same car jack is an added plus.

    I bought this for my car which does not have a Bluetooth connection. The device worked as advertised the music sounds great, using it for your phone is a little different, it picks up a lot of background noise but it does work as advertised

    This thing works fantastic I drive a 2005 Mustang Gt and I can hide the device in my center console with the Auxillary cord hanging out and I don't get any interferance with the reception, EVEN IN MY CENTER CONSOLE! Only problem is you can't charge your phone while it's plugged in otherwise you get some bad feedback from the alternator(slight background hum through the stereo) but that's no fault of the product that's just what happens when you have a device plugged into two a circuit in two different ways

    First off, this product works well. You just need to find the right station for your location. You must try different volumes on the product you use to supply the music (in my case, a smartphone). You must also try different stations until you find one that works best in your location. If you put in the time, this product works flawlessly. Little pricey but Best Buy did a GREAT job with the price match. So easy to get the price adjusted. Very impressed.

    My son bought the JamKast FM Transmitter and it seems to work very well. I have another brand in my car and struggle to get any compatible stations to work well. He quickly found a good station and was listening to his tunes.

    iSimple - JamKast FM Transmitter - Black - For a 2005 Silverado, it eliminated the need to remove the dash front and replace the OEM radio that had no CD, no USB, etc. Instead, plugging in that little adapter provided a really simple and inexpensive alternative for using my Sprint smart phone, that I don't use, for tunes now. Upload tunes to the phone and then play through the truck's radio on a frequency of choice. Simple, it works pretty well. Good buy for ME even if it isn't "techie." I have my tunes. YMMV of course.

    I bought this to listen to my iPhone over car stereo that does not have aux input. My daughter advised against it saying they didn't work well. I bought it anyways to try it out. After using it for a week I told her it worked well and she tried it. Unfortunately for me she loves it, so now I will have to buy another one for MY vehicle. Lol

    I am not certain any fm transmitter works 100% effectively, but this one was far superior to a model I purchased years back. We used it to play sound for movies through a laptop computer on a 72 hour road trip. It worked great for the majority of the trip. Large cities with more fm channels caused occasional interference, but once out of range of the large metro areas the kids received crystal clear signals throughout the car.

    The iSimplie FM Transmitter has some nice feathers, such as the ability to auto search and set five different frequencies, but it doesn't always find the best frequency. When another radio station is interfering with the transmitter the sound quality of your music drops dramatically. With that being said this is still one of the better FM Transmitter I've used.

    This worked well with my 2002 Jeep stereo that didn't have an aux port or Bluetooth capabilities. Finding clear stations can be tricky, but it seemed to override weak stations well so it wasn't too much of a concern. I definitely recommend it if you're wanting to stream music but have an older sound system in your vehicle.

    Bought this and tried it out for a few weeks. Besides always having some static you must frequently change the radio station to keep as clear as possible. In the end I would not recommend instead just save your money and install a new radio.
