I tried to use wireless AA with a carlink box in my Audi q7. I liked the way it performed except that i had to tell all my apps to ignore wifi and use data because the wifi only sent data to the screen and not to the internet. Is this still an issue?
Thanks for the review. I've got this adapter, hasn't been great for me. At times it'll randomly disconnect, my infotainment unit screen freeze, usb device not supported that's the message constantly popping up on my screen, I have a Subaru XV 2021 and my ph is a z fold 5. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I've contacted support team didn't get any assistance fr them would never recommend this product to anyone.
Yes they should all work properly. With most of these adapters, you can activate both the car voice commands and the Google Assistant/Siri depending if you hold it down or not.
Hi and thanks for the video. Which of these wireless android auto dongles will play back videos? And do you happen to have any info of the Tesla screen for a new Infinity 50? Thanks a lot!!
I do not have any information about that screen. Any adapter that runs a full Android OD will run the apps for streaming. Usually the ones that access the screen via Carplay but run full android.
Both Wi-fi and Bluetooth. The connection is initiated via Bluetooth but the data transfer is done via Wi-fi. That is why if you turn Wi-fi off after connecting, the connection will fail.
You would need to make sure your vehicle has built in wired Android Auto otherwise this will not work. As far as I can recall, the first vehicles in the US to receive this capability were 2015MY.
Thank you for awesome review. And yes! I would like to see the comparison video between MA1 vs Carsifi
Thanks for the feedback!
Thanks for the review, mate. Very helpful and great to see the unit in use on the same infotainment system as my car.
Keep up the great content! 😀👍
Thank you!
I bought that adapter and it has given me a lot of connection problems, it doesn't work well and it is very expensive for its poor quality

My Carsifi+Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4+Ssangyong Korando 2022, speed connect, super function.
Had mine for over a year with zero issues.

Has the Smartphone a 4G connect when connect via dongle?
Dose it need internet connection to work?
Thanks for the review. Did the steering wheel button work normally while using this adapter ?
Yes they should all work properly. With most of these adapters, you can activate both the car voice commands and the Google Assistant/Siri depending if you hold it down or not.
Do you have to do anything to turn on the adapter when you start your car?
Nope! The adapter will turn on automatically as the USB port is powered on.
Doe's this work with android head unit zlink?

Will ot work with fly audio
Sounds good, which other adapters do you tested before?
The only two adapters I have tested are here on the channel. I also use the Motorola MA1 personally and it works great.
Which one is better Motorola or this one in the video?
Which adapter was easiest to set up and less glitchy?
I like the Motorola MA1 best out of all the Android options I have tried.
Hi.. does the WiFi and Bluetooth should be turned on to connect? Or just the bluetooth?
Both Wi-fi and Bluetooth. The connection is initiated via Bluetooth but the data transfer is done via Wi-fi. That is why if you turn Wi-fi off after connecting, the connection will fail.
Did you make a phone call thru it? Lag?
I did not but I would assume lag would be fairly little.
I have an older car (Peugeot 208, puretech, about 7 years old but does have a screen). Would this work?
