Review on 🔘 Satechi Bluetooth Media Button with Steering Wheel Mount - Compatible with iPad Pro, iPad Air, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iPhone 12 - User-Friendly Controls for Convenient Access by Black Holstead

Good: It took a few tries to set up the initial connection, after that it worked great for music control in my old device. The included clip sits well on my handlebars and doesn't get in the way when riding. The bad: On Android, this device is recognized as a Bluetooth keyboard, so it outsources the functions of the media key to the phone. What wasn't clear when using it is that your phone's soft keyboard will be disabled while it's plugged in. This means you cannot enter directions, reply to text messages, or dial a phone number while this device is connected. Although the inability to print can be seen as a plus as most are likely to buy it as an auto media controller. The biggest issue I had was the device's auto sleep/timeout feature, which puts the device to sleep after about 15 minutes of inactivity. Basically, if the button on the device is not pressed at least every 15 minutes, the device will go to sleep and it will take some time to reconnect after waking up. For something geared toward older motorists, this product has some glaring flaws that I wouldn't expect to find in any current technology, especially when it costs almost twice as much as most other devices that do the same job.
