Excellent WiFi Adapter

I have to say I'm impressed. Setup was almost automatic, plug it in and the rest is no different than connecting another Bluetooth device to your phone. Much smaller than I thought it would fit in the small trunk of my F-250 like a glove. Only real comment: I wish I had bought something like this sooner, it's really nice that the wires aren't lying all over the place! Highly recommended.

Pros
  • Excellent Overall Performance
Cons
  • No Performance

Disappointing performance

I bought this unit to use in my 2019 Nissan Kicks. Connecting and setting up was pretty easy. And it works pretty well. But the device overheats, often within an hour of use. When this happens, its performance suffers badly. It's buggy, doesn't connect well to the phone, and heats up enough to melt a candy bar stuck next to it in the dash/console drawer where the USB CarPlay port is. I'm more annoyed with the overheating issue than with plugging and unplugging my iPhone 12 Max Pro when getting…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some minor issues

Camry Infinite Reboot Loop

$118, fast shipping from Revain. Connections: 2018 Camry XLE (latest update to the stock Entune headunit) with Camry Drimfly cable included, I used my iPhone SE (2020). I couldn't read the small print in the instructions that came with it, but somehow I quickly connected it. After pressing the Camry's start button, music will play for 30 seconds with Apple Maps on the screen. It worked very well for the first 3 days, it was perfect. Day 3 The Camry head unit started an endless boot loop and…

Someone said "It doesn't work for 2016 F150 with SYNC 3 built in "

Someone said "It doesn't work for 2016 F150 with SYNC 3 built in". I'm not sure what your problem is. but it worked flawlessly in my 2016 F150 XLT with SYNC 3. I used Car Play with USB port. When I connected this device, it quickly found my phone, connected, and now automatically goes to Car Play every time I turn on the truck. The only reason I put 4 instead of 5 is that there is a slight lag after pressing the onscreen buttons. This is not the case when using wired Car Play. EDIT…

Pros
  • Lots of good vibes
Cons
  • Expensive

Works on 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee

I've only had this unit for a few days but so far it has exceeded all my expectations. Based on various customer reviews, I was hesitant to buy any of these wireless CarPlay conversion devices. There are several different brands on the market, but they all seem to have the same functionality and possibly the same internals. This is advertised in the title as being compatible with the Jeep Wrangler JL/JT, which I understand is an identical system to my Grand Cherokee. That is what prompted me to

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
