ByteWave Wireless Android Auto & CarPlay Adapter 2-in-1 Converts Wired to Wireless 2025 Upgraded, Plug-and-Play Dongle with Low Latency, Connect for iOS10+/Android 11+ Cars

It takes time to connect after a month of use.

Excellent - quick connection in car

I ordered one of these and it would pair with my phone and I'd get the pair code, opt to pair it, then it would instantly disconnect. Then, if I forgot the device (Bluetooth settings) it wouldn't see it again until I rebooted the phone (which seems strange). It would also act like it is connecting then disconnecting. The green light would sometimes flash every 5 seconds or so then sometimes ever 10 seconds or more. It acted like it was defective so I contacted Amazon and they sent me another one. It is doing the SAME THING. I see a review where somebody else appears to be having the same issues. This is in a 2020 Camaro with a Pixel 9 Pro XL phone. I've tried everything... firmware is up to date. Took off my smart watch. Connected to my house internet while in driveway with phone and then didn't and made sure no other WiFi was connected to my phone. Tried connecting phone to this device's Wifi while plugged into car and then to Bluetooth. Nope. Then, with the first device and now my new one, sometimes it just indicates that it can't communicate with the device id blah blah blah when trying to pair too. It might do it before I get to the pairing screen showing the pairing ID then if I unplug the dongle and plug it back in I might get past that but then get the same error message after I see the pairing number code and say to pair. Then, sometimes I can pair it but then it never attaches. Once I got Android Auto to come up on my phone but never did it come up in my car. Car screen always shows a connection error and asks if I want to retry or cancel. I'm pretty techy and have spent over 2 hours trying every combo I can think of and nothing is working any differently... the Bluetooth will NOT stay connected. Any ideas? Also, when I plugged it into my computer (to check firmware and update) the computer kept making the USB device connect/disconnect sound over and over. I don't know if I just got unlucky or what and got two defective units with the same issue or if something isn't compatible with either my 2020 Camaro (wired Android Auto works fine) or the Pixel 9 Pro or what? I've got a message into tech support and will update rating once I hear from their tech support. I'm not hopeful because reading the reviews here and how easy this is to setup doesn't give me much hope since I think I've done about everything and spent already 2 hours on this. Ugh. Edit: Bumped my review up to 2 stars. The explained my problems through the Amazon tech service messaging and they didn't have many suggestions but refunded my for the device. Bummed it didn't work because I really liked the size. Edit 2: Bumped it up to 3 stars due to customer support. Even after they refunded my money when they couldn't figure out the issue in message support, they saw this review and asked if there was anything more they could do. I'm disappointed two of these wouldn't work (not sure if I got two defective products in a row, something with my particular car, or something with my phone???) but their customer service goes out of their way to do the right thing so for that I think it's worth 3 stars and my issues, based on other reviews, aren't the norm. Edit 3: Upped to 5 stars because I think the problem is something wrong in my car. I bought two other brands and they are all doing the same thing. Not fair to ding this one when the problem is likely not with the device. :)

works really good with both apple and android

Terrible piece of kit. Just about works but the sound keeps breaking up every minute or so. Bought this so I could have Car Play working all the time but its so flaky it's just easier to wire the phone in through a cable when needed rather than put up with the poor service this provides. If you need a Car Play wireless adapter then avoid this one like the plague

When I got this a month ago it worked great but it just stopped working I'm very disappointed in this product
