Disappointed: Dashboard Navigation

I really wanted this item to work, hooked it up to my 2017 Fusion with OEM CarPlay and it did nothing but give a red light. I've tried the suggested updates but it still won't connect. I have requested a refund and have received multiple requests to customer service for a refund and not a gift card. Very bad experience with this product for something not guaranteed to work.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Best Wireless Apple Car Play for iPhone

Works great on my 2021 Kia Telluride, maybe 10 seconds connection delay but it connects every time after initial setup, instructions are not that clear but just plug into USB port . and go to setup phone devices on your iphone 12 pro ios 14.6 then do a bluetooth search on your phone for maybe 5 minutes and you're done, plus it's small enough to hide almost anywhere.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Some Cons

Makes Life Easier: Automotive Electronics

This little key makes life MUCH easier. I no longer have to connect my iPhone to my car with a cable. In fact, I found this routine so frustrating that I hadn't even used CarPlay before. Now I just get in, start the car and after about 15 seconds CarPlay connects. Many reviews say the audio is choppy unless you tweak some settings. My car didn't have this problem; The sound from my phone is perfectly clear. I will get my wife one.

Pros
  • Durable Finish
Cons
  • Updates Available

Purchased for use in a 2021 Infiniti Q50. Installation was easy, plug in and you'll be prompted to connect to Bluetooth on the car's Apple CarPlay screen. By default it should reconnect automatically at this point every time the car is started. This one connected automatically 7 times out of 15 I would say, other times I had to manually tell it to connect on the screen. And at least twice it wouldn't let me connect and wouldn't connect.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Everything OK

Avoid USB cables with this

This is a great addition to CarPlay. How to avoid a nasty USB chord from the center console. Sometimes it can be tricky. Sometimes my phone won't find, or you hear music on your phone when you get in the car, it will auto play and switch back to say XM sometimes not working. The last thing I noticed is that sometimes my backup camera either doesn't work or stays on all the time. To update. The original cable stopped working, so I used a different one. The adapter turns on, but my phone can't…

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Replacement Availability

Required device to rotate CarPlay wirelessly

It would have been very easy to get 5 stars if it wasn't for the disconnection issue which I am still working on with the manufacturer. The manufactory responded within 24 hours. The initial setup was quick and easy. After the initial setup, a connection will be established automatically the next time the vehicle is switched on. It takes a while to connect and works great with my 2020 MDX. I've only had it for a few weeks, so I can't comment on reliability. Pros: 1. Connect to CarPlay…

Pros
  • Exclusive technology
Cons
  • I will add later

No more connection. Returned.

Edit: After some trouble I finally got it working. It was great for a day and a half, but then it stopped connecting. Two more hours trying to get it working before calling. Not worth the trouble. I'm not sure why I struggled with the setup. I watched the video, read the instructions and went online to confirm the instructions. But it couldn't find my phone when I tried to connect via bluetooth. I tried it 10 times and was ready to give up and finally it appeared! I clicked on it…

Pros
  • What do you get
Cons
  • unreliable

It works. Maybe better?

Firstly it is well packaged and I am very happy with the size of the device; it's easy to "hide" if you wish. Although I'm fairly tech savvy, it was VERY easy to connect. I would say anyone that can plug in their phone or connect to their home wifi can do this. It just works. If your glass has been down/parked for hours (I was NOT collecting any data at the time, but overnight it's certainly causing longer startup/connection times) it will take a minute or two to connect. . At this point, the…

Pros
  • Install after purchase
Cons
  • Not sure
