Setup requires Bluetooth pairing and no app. After that, your iPhone reconnects in less than 3 seconds when you start the car, so Maps and your music are on the screen before you pull out of the driveway.
Dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi keeps your connection stable. The touchscreen, steering wheel buttons, rotary control and Siri work the same way as with the cable, as do calls, messages, navigation and music.
At 1.2 inches square and 0.4 inches thick, the adapter fits flush with the port rather than hanging off of it. Protection against overheating, surges, and short circuits is built in, and USB-A and USB-C cables come in the box. If someone in your family drives with an Android phone, the adapter also supports wireless Android Auto.
Your car requires factory wired CarPlay for the adapter to work and is compatible with over 1000 vehicle models and any iPhone 6 or later.
Stop plugging in your iPhone every time you drive.
