I recently ordered a dongle on TikTok and had to return it because it would not stay connected long enough to even play one song on my playlist. This is awesome! I did go to the dealership to get my CarPlay updated prior to using this product. I was very impressed that the seller sent me instructions through Amazon messaging even before I received it and offered support in the event I had any difficulty.
This was a breeze! I paired it with my iPhone, and inserted it into the USB port in my car and voil! I have had absolutely no difficulties with loss of connection, not even once! This is more expensive than the one that I purchased on TikTok But this one actually works. The extra money was absolutely worth it. I 100% recommend this. No more cables, automatic connection when I get into the car with my iPhone and a solid connection.
We recently bought a new 23 Kia Sportage Hybrid which did not come with wireless CarPlay. After a few cheap chords giving out, we decided to give this a try and it actually works! It’s small and easy to set up. It connects quickly and works like a normal wireless CarPlay would. The only problem we’ve noticed is the phone call quality sounds muffled on both ends of the call. Something we’re willing to put up with though.
I’ve been using a cable for the longest time to connect my phone and use maps when driving. This product made it more convenient by removing the cables that usually get in the way or broken after several uses. CarPlay is automatically turned on when start the engine and so far I haven’t had any disconnections. I prefer this over other products because my USB port is upright (cx9) so it’s small enough to be plugged in a vertical position. I recommend this product.
I cannot express how amazing this is. I got one after recommendations on Subaru forums as I have been dealing with the cable disconnecting and reconnecting for months. I didn’t know what to expect but this works so great now I never have to fiddle with the cable again. So happy
It was easy to connect and has connected faultlessly every time. Takes a short while to connect. Sound quality is better than through my bluetooth connection. Very happy with the product.
I have to admit, after reading reviews I did not try this product ‘out of the box’. Before use, I updated to the latest firmware and manually selected the audio output quality. With this in mind, my experience using this device has been absolutely flawless for my personal use and with no lag while using any Apple-intended CarPlay functions. I am only marking this product down to 3 stars as if you wish to use multiple IOS devices (maybe your partner has an iPhone as well) with this wireless CarPlay unit, it is not capable of automatically connecting to whichever IOS device is range – it will continue to try to reconnect to the most recently connected IOS device. There is a fairly easy solution, as all that’s involved is going to Settings -> Bluetooth on your iPhone and reconnecting to the Adapter, but because of this, it is not a 100% automated experience. Overall I am happy with my purchase, especially considering the form factor.
I don’t write many reviews but this is simply to give others feedback that this lesser known brand is working flawlessly in my skoda octavia.
There are lots of posts about other better known brands, but not many about this one.
I decided to buy it as there was good feedback in the Subaru forums in Australia on this one and because I believe that my skoda was having issues with the cable that I used to connect my iphone – ie the cable itself can be a cause of the connection issues.
This one is a dongle that plugs into the carplay usb port and you just leave it in there.
It has connected on every single engine startup and the longest it has taken is 1 minute but usually a lot less. Nothing else to say other than I am now actually using my carplay apps every time I drive
I am sure that this product is good however it did not seem to like my Suzuki as it was very hit & miss when trying to connect. I had to return it & go back to a cable connection.
I’m very impressed with excellent performance of the product with my car’s CarPlay and my IPhone 11.
The sound quality is great, which matches that of using a cable connection. Additionally, the minimal time lag further enhances my experience. I am delighted to be using this product in my Audi SQ5 2019, which boasts an upgraded sound system.
I bought this to go in my Renault kadjar. I chose it because it claimed to have wide compatibility with cars and older iPhones as well as new. It works with my I phone 11 and allows wireless connection allowing Apple car player. If I have one criticism it’s that I occasionally have to pair again on start up.
I first purchased a different model but that didn’t work at all (wouldn’t even pair) so I ended up getting this one. It’s an improvement in every way, first the form factor. Not many are in this stick shape with no necessary dongles or cables. So I was able to tuck it away in my center console where I’ll never have to see or touch it.
I will say when I first got the device pairing was easy, but I thought I was going to have to send it back because after a song or two the audio would go to garbage, sounded completely mangled. So I went looking through the settings (open a browser on your phone when connected and navigate to 192.168.2.1) and I found two that were set to auto. Thinking the issue was the device “hunting” for the right settings I decided to just set them statically and that immediately solved all my problems. In all honestly I’m not sure that forcing the WiFi band is actually necessary but the audio quality was for sure. If this device otherwise seems to work but you have audio quality issues, give that a shot.
Overall, very happy!

I have wireless apple CarPlay in all my cars except my 2016 corvette z06. I don’t have use satellite radio anymore so I rely on my apps off my phone for music. I don’t like having to plug my phone into a usb wire each time I get in the car so I bought this. Installation was super quick and it paired with my cars radio in less than 30 seconds so I was excited. Had Waze running and all was good.
Until I decided to use my music app. All I got right away was static and distortion. It works though. The music plays but the reception or the signal between this device and my radio was flawed. I thought it was where my car was parked at my house so I started to drive to see if it changed. It didn’t. I got on the highway and same thing. Couldn’t enjoy the music because of all the static.
I gave up and plugged my phone into my usb cable to listen to perfect sounding music with Apple car play.
Maybe I got a defect but I don’t want to experiment with this anymore. I’ll stick to the cord again.
Update: 6-30-24. So i was able to make this work with the help of the seller. She was very helpful and eager to make this work for me with a firmware update and a secondary unit even after I returned the original. Once she gave me the proper instructions on how To correct the issue it has been working perfectly for weeks. For those who have trouble with this please reach out to the seller and she’ll help right away. I should’ve reached out before making my original review but most sellers don’t help after you buy from them. Jane really helps you so you’re satisfied. I am correcting my rating to 5 stars because I am very satisfied now.
Update March 11, 2024. The seller contacted me after seeing my negative review below and offered me a refund and also provided guidance to try to fix the static issue by trying a different firmware. After changing the firmware to V3.94_0625_beta, the static has gone away and the device seems to be working just fine. The only remaining issue I found is that if I’m watching a video on my iPhone with the sound going through the ANYFAR device to my truck stereo, the video and audio are not in sync. Not an issue if just playing music. For reference, my truck is 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with 8″ IntelliLink system. Changing my rating from 1 to 4 stars. Would give 5 if the sync issue was gone.

Original review:
This product connected quickly and worked fine initially but while streaming Apple Music, the sound quality got very bad with a lot of static within 5 minutes. I tried all four available USB ports in my truck (2017 GMC Sierra), but each of them resulted in the same result; very clear to start then very poor sound quality within 5 minutes. I tried plugging the device in with the supplied cable and without. No difference. I am using an iPhone 12 Pro Max with iOS 17.3.1. I also checked for a firmware update for the device following the instructions in the supplied manual but it said under the Upgrade section: “Already the latest version”. Despite the horrible sound quality, the wireless CarPlay stayed connected for maps and other apps. Everything worked as if I was on a wired connection so I am disappointed I will not be able to use this. I was looking for another way to contact the supplier but this seems to be the only way to provide feedback on the product. If I don’t hear back from them, I will be returning this defective product.
