"This device is excellent. Very easy to setup and works perfectly. It connects to my android auto very quickly. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for wireless android auto or apple car play if your vehicle only has a wired USB connection. I purchased from my local BestBuy and that was smooth also."

Extremely Happy!

"My car wouldn't connect to my car play automaticly anymore(past warranty of course). I found Aluratek Combo Wireless Car Adapter and had to try. It worked/works perfectly! As soon as I set it up my car was connected, and each time I get in it's now automatically connected again!!!"

Total Game Changer - No More Cables!

"I absolutely love this little adapter. My car came with factory Apple CarPlay, but having to plug my phone into a cable every single time I got into the driver's seat was getting incredibly annoying—not to mention the clutter of cords in my center console. Setting up the Aluratek adapter took less than two minutes. I just plugged it into the USB port, paired my phone via Bluetooth once, and it was ready to go. There were no confusing apps to download or complicated settings to mess with. Now, the second I start my car, the adapter boots up and automatically connects to my phone within seconds. The performance is incredibly smooth. Because it uses 5GHz Wi-Fi, there’s no noticeable lag when changing tracks, using voice assistants, or navigating with maps. I also love how incredibly small it is; the carbon-fiber finish looks premium and it fits flush against the dash without dangling wires everywhere. Another huge plus is that it works seamlessly with both iPhones and Androids. My partner uses Android Auto and I use CarPlay, and the little toggle button on the unit makes it super easy to switch between our devices when we're road-tripping together. If you're tired of messing around with phone cords every day, do yourself a favor and buy this. It works perfectly right out of the box!"

Almetria S. (5/5)

Great little device

"I was having problems connecting to Car Play after I purchased an iPhone 17 Pro. I tried various cables that I was told would work, and they didn’t. A young man at Best Buy recommended this little device and I was able to connect to Car Play immediately. It’s so nice not having to deal with cables anymore. Thank you Aluratek!"

Q&A

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

How many phones can connect to the adapter?

Only 1 phone can connect at a time. That phone will then have control of the audio to the car. You can disconnect that phone and when you connect a different phone simply make sure Bluetooth is turned off on the first phone so the adapter doesn't grab that one first. Now the second phone can pair via Bluetooth easily.

If my car doesn't have carplay already will this work if I just plug it in?

No. This adpater only supports vehicles equipped with factory wired Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Vehicles in the 2015 to 2025 range are going to be most compatible.

Could you plug this into a tv that is not a smart tv

No. It's just meant for a car stereo system.

Can you watch videos or YouTube?

This is not supported because Apple CarPlay and Android Auto do not support streaming video.

What if my car only support USB-C connections?

This product with a Type-C adapter so regardless of your car's USB port, the wireless car adapter will be a universal fit.
