About this deal

Biggest issue is how long it takes the pcm to shutoff and stop staying connected to my phone when I get home. We shall not be held responsible for third party and labour charges incurred, if installation service is not carried by In Car Music.

Longer press on the voice control steering wheel button (until the on screen prompt appears) and voice commands work well.

There is no need to wait a long time once Wireless CarPlay or Android Auto boots onto your car's infotainment system. I am using it everyday but oddly enough I've to unplug it when charging otherwise my phone in the house drops the house WiFi and keeps connecting to the dongle. I get in the car and it just works, no plugging in, and I can just keep the phone in my pocket if i want. Anyway below is the review and I'm also giving one away as a celebration for hitting 1 million views on YouTube 🎉 That video is below too. You only need to plug the dongle into the USB port and connect your phone to the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals.

I was going to try to change some settings as Carlinkit advise a couple of changes for connection issues. The other slight annoyance, and along the lines of your powered USB when charging, is that when I connect to the car via the Bluelink app the USB ports become active as the adapter keeps trying to connect to my phone (when i'm in range at least). With the faffing around you might think that just using the lead is better and in some cases it probably is. The device itself isn't inherently illegal but you could be breaking a law if you're distracted while driving, and that goes for any reason.I've set Android Auto to wireless (its an option in my AA settings) so I don't have to do anything to initiate wireless AA, and in my case, Google Maps starts with satellite view and Spotify starts streaming my playlist. If you do have issues, there are numerous settings that can be changed (I've not changed any so using all defaults) plus you can undertake software updates online (again not tried or needed to as yet). wireless adapter enables you to wirelessly connect your car's existing wired Apple CarPlay or wired Android Auto infotainment system, allowing you to conveniently access all your preferred maps, media, and messaging apps on your car's display through Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity. It eliminates the need for cables to link your Phone to the car, resulting in a cleaner-looking interior without the clutter of wires.

It uses the native Android Auto and Apple Carplay protocols for the wireless functionality which should translate to less lag compared to other devices. I did add a 128gig MSD card to it with my entire MP3 library on it and now I have my audio collection available, no matter where I am on my favorite android audio app.The TBOX Max is a great option for upgrading a recent car head unit (that already has AA or Carplay) to a complete Android head unit, without modifying the vehicle in anyway. Carlinkit 2AIR is a new adapter that supports both Apple CarPlay for iPhone and Android Auto system for Android mobiles, also known as Carlinkit 5.
