Apple CarPlay & Android Auto are almost perfect but suffers from one critical flaw...
Now that the clickbait is out of the way, please read on :-)
If you have a car with a factory WIRED Apple CarPlay OR Android Auto system, this nifty device let's you connect wirelessly (via Bluetooth) to your car's system! No more cables! No more plugging your phone in EVERY TRIP! Believe me, this one is a game changer!
Once paired, your phone will simply reconnect every time you go for a drive, so your phone can stay in your pocket or handbag - finally! :-)
Being the Cable Chick you'd think I'd be all-in on cables. Well I can tell you that cables always make sense when they allow you to have a seamless technological experience (like when plugging your PS5 into your 4K TV). You plug it in and get the best possible experience, if it was possible to do this wirelessly it wouldn't be quite as good an experience.
CarPlay and Androis Auto however, aren't quite the perfect user experience as yet. Unless you have one of the very few cars on the market which has wireless conectivity, you're still stuck using a cable.
However after over a year using one of these nifty devices every day, I can say there's no better investment in your automotive journey! Simply plug in this compact adapter to the USB data port in your car (the same port you'd use for CarPlay/Android Auto), paid your phone to the device via Bluetooth, and instantly convert your car to a wireless CarPlay car. Once setup, it will instantly pair with your car the moment you start it up, just without the annoying cable plugging in bits.
If your car also has a wireless charging mat you don't even need to worry about charging the phone, how nice would that be?
