Wireless CarPlay Dongle

is there a wireless option for andriod auto?
 
I broke down and ordered one tonight. If anyone here is really interested, I'll post my experience in a couple weeks after I get it.
Yes please post up your experience with it. I have almost gone ahead and pulled the trigger a couple of different times. Im ready for it!
 
Not wit this product. There may be others that support this (IDK). This one is CarPlay specific.
check out their webpage because i have seen a product for the android users.
 
I’ll buy the new hardware unit as long as it fits my 12” screen opening that I have now.

If you read carefully, it said:
  • Wireless CarPlay for iPhone devices
  • Auto-connects when the vehicle is started
  • Android Auto via cable
  • Mirror-link via cable
The adapter works only with Android 4.2 and above.
Wireless CarPlay works only with Apple iOS devices.
 
Not to be a downer, I too want wireless CarPlay but a huge risk is that even if it works now, if it is not officially authorized by Apple, a future iOS update (or possibly Uconnect) can render this useless.

Indeed. Like all hacks (this is what this is after all), there’s risk involved.
 
First update is even though I got the 3-5 business day "express" shipping option, the unit is still no where close to being here. Today I got an email from the website stating they were sold out due to "huge demand" and that the Coronavirus has "paralyzed half of the world freight services and our freight from Hong Kong can't be exported until the 9th of February because of quarantine extension. We will start shipping all orders on the 10th of February"

Now I don't know if I want to handle the unit when it does arrive! :eek:

You'll be fine. The virus can't live that long in the wild (24 hrs max, studies show).
