Key Features
- 2-in-1 Wireless Freedom: Supports both wireless Apple CarPlay (iOS 10+) and wireless Android Auto in a single adapter — share navigation and music with any passenger.
- Plug & Play Setup: One-time pairing via the Autokit app; after that, your phone connects automatically every time you start the car.
- 98% OEM Compatibility: Works with the vast majority of factory-installed wired CarPlay systems — smaller than a credit card, so it stays neatly tucked away.
- Dual-Band Wi-Fi (2.4G + 5G/5.8GHz) & Bluetooth 5.2: The certified 5.8 GHz Wi-Fi module delivers a stable, low-latency wireless connection — even more reliable than a wired setup in everyday use.
- Steering Wheel & Microphone Compatible: Full support for your original car microphone and steering wheel controls — no functionality lost.
- OTA Updates: Firmware updates delivered over the air in real time — no USB stick needed.
- Auto Power-Off Protection: The device powers down within 3 minutes of turning off the car, so it won't drain your battery.
- Adaptive Language Support: Automatically matches your vehicle's system language, or switch manually at any time.
- Adaptive Resolution: Display output adapts to your car's factory screen resolution automatically.
How to Check Compatibility
- Your car has factory (OEM) wired CarPlay built in.
