Always connects and works great! Sometimes if you’re already on the phone when you get int the car, there is some difficulty with the call requiring you to hang and reconnect. Overall though, it’s a great buy.

I have an older truck with bluetooth however it's kind of spotty at best. Really would like to use my iPhone in there for music and such but the cheap bluetooth receivers/transmitters I see are pretty poor quality for the cheap ones.
Came across this one as I've been a Rexing dash cam user for quite a while. This thing works pretty well. Able to use my iPhone 16 Pro Max in my truck more consistently now thanks to this. Sound quality is OK but the signal strength is what I'm most impressed with. Pretty much have good connection with this. My other bluetooth transimitters/receivers cut out once every 10-15 seconds. This one seems more stable for me.

I purchased the Rexing CPW-42 Wireless AC/AA for my 2017 Honda Accord Touring Coupe and so far it has been working flawlessly even when it would take a few minutes for the car's system seems hesitant to start AA. I highly recommend this if you're looking for wireless capability if your vehicle has AC/AA.

Works Great, No More Disconnects

I was frustrated with the disconnection that I had with the wired Google Play device I had previously. I assume that it was because when the hit a bump or any type of rough movement would cause the cable to move and then disconnect. I think my theory was proven because this wireless version does not disconnect. I've had this for 4 months and driven long distance. I'm very happy with this device and I would recommend it those that have a cable connection to give this a try. It immediately connects to my phone when I start the car.

I have another Rexing product for my vehicle that works great so I decided to try this wireless carplay product by Rexing. My vehicle supports wired carplay but not wireless natively, so this adapter is necessary. Setup was very easy (instructions in the box) as it is plug and play, then connect with your phone. Every time you start your vehicle, it will automatically connect and you'll have wireless carplay. Very much worth the price and highly recommend!

Works as describe in a 2018 Laramie ram 2500.
I used many of the ones in Amazon and they didn't perform well after a few weeks.
So i decided to give this one a shot & I'm pleased i did.

Great Choice for Apple CarPlay

I was doing a lot of research to find a good wireless dongle for Apple CarPlay. A lot of the options I saw booted up CarPlay too slow, had major lag, or were too bulky. This one is perfect, it boots up CarPlay right when I enter the car, there’s little to no lag (maybe like half a second or less when switching songs on Spotify), and it’s small and light weight and easily meshes well with the clean look of my car’s interior without being as bulky as a pocket wifi device. I’d definitely recommend this one to anyone looking for a great option for wireless Apple CarPlay.

We got the Rexing CPW-42 for my wife’s 2018 Honda Odyssey, and she absolutely loves it.
Setup was quick and painless—just plug into the USB port and follow the pairing instructions. Within minutes, her iPhone connected automatically, and now she never has to mess with cable again.
CarPlay loads fast and runs smoothly, and she can jump straight into navigation, music, and messages without fumbling with cords while juggling the kids.
It’s a small upgrade that makes a huge difference in daily driving.
Highly recommended!

By far the best wireless CP & AA adapter I've used

I've used four different brands of wireless CarPlay & Android Auto adapters trying to find one that worked without all the headaches. The Rexing CPW-42 is by far the best one I've used. Connection is very prompt with uninterrupted audio quality. The adapter is also compact as it fits nicely out of the way, unlike the dongle type adapters that are available. The Rexing CPW-42 far surpasses the previous brands I've tried, so much so that I bought a second adapter for my other vehicle. I highly recommend the Rexing CPW-42!!!

Fantastic Wireless Adapter!

I purchased this product as I have used several Rexing products before, such as their dashcams and have had nothing but positive experiences with their products.
I have been looking for a wireless CarPlay adapter for my vehicle for months and gave up as I couldn’t find one that was as minimal and compact from a brand I trust. Found out Rexing came out with one and purchased it almost immediately.
Set up was extremely easy! It’s about as “plug and play” as you can get from a product in 2025. While there is a little bit of latency, this is the result of how wireless capabilities work and is not detrimental to the efficiency of the product and after a day, you don’t even notice it.
I primarily purchased this product because I hate having to take my phone out of my pocket and plug it in and have an issue where it doesn’t always read the phone, so needing to unplug and replug it again is just inconvenient. On top of that, the phone being used for maps and music while charging renders the phone hot, especially with the heater on during the winter months and it just got annoying dealing with that.
Highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a wireless CarPlay adapter from a trusted brand!

I should have bought this instant fix for wireless CarPlay years ago. It works and setup is a breeze. It connects automatically with no trouble every time I start up my truck. I love it. There is one small glitchy thing, about half the time, upon first connect, the music playing from my iPhone starts right up for 10 seconds, then cuts out for 2 seconds then it works as expected with no issues at all. Honestly, it doesn't bother me since I get the benefits of wireless CarPlay on my 2021 Ram 1500 now which I am super stoked about.

Worked great right out of the box with my 2018 Subaru Outback. I love no longer having to plug into the USB port. I've been using this for about a month and have had no issues. It connects pretty quickly - I haven't timed it but I'd estimate by about 5 seconds.

Rexing CPW-42 - 5 Star!!! What I've needed!

Rexing - CPW-42 Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto Adapter for iPhone (iOS 10+) and Android (Android 11+)
This is what I've needed!!! This unit makes it possible to have Apple Car Play or Android Auto without any hassles with an attached cord. It's for vehicles with factory-installed wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto systems and gives you wireless connections without plugging in your phone.
It has Dual-band 5GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and once set up future connections are automatic which takes a lot of hassle out of trying to connect to your vehicle with a cord.
