THANK YOU for this video! I was looking to purchase this product but had a few questions about the USB ports, always on and the dedicated carplay port; you answered them all!
Helpful Video! While using AA Wireless, is it possible to inductively charge your smartphone in the car (provided, of course, that there is an inductive charging cradle in the car) to limit the loss of your smartphone's battery level?
Does the steering wheel buttons work ? Like play pause next previus track and volume work ? Im interested to buy this thing but i dont really want to lose the steering wheel functions
@@recanything good to know becasuse i didnt really find much info about this specific one, but i saw that others dont work and thats why i was wondering, i have a golf 6 with the rcd 330 display and even tho i have the usb port at the bottom in the button row and not plug the phone directly in the display to look ugly, its still a hassle to keep plugging in and out the phone
I have ordered one last week, I have tried the 3 CarKit versions, but they all do not work, and when they work, they work for just one time, the next time when you start the engine the connection is lost. I need it for my VW Touareq 2019 with Samsung S21 Ultra. When I have installed it I will let you all know if this works!
Hi Maxim, YES!!! download the app, connect the box to the car, follow the app instructions, and ready! I have min in my car for two weeks now, get in the car with your mobile, start the car and in seconds the android auto is live on your screen!!
Just received mine and so far, so good. Here's a stupid question - my phone connects to both the cars head unit and aa wireless, is it necessary to connect to both or can I just connect it to aa wireless? Thinking if I only have it connected to aa wireless, it might save a little battery on my phone
hi, if you install new application on your phone it show to in AA ? because you say in the movie all app we install on our phone will show itself on AAWIRELESS
If the app is compatible with Android Auto, then yes, you will see it. If it is not available in Android Auto (like RUclips for example), then you will not see it.
Salut. Cum se comportă după 4 luni de folosire? Se agață, a dat erori? Am înțeles că unii au avut probleme cu calitatea sunetului sau în convorbire se aude apelul pe telefon nu pe mașină. Ms
What kind of car infotainment is compatible please advise Loke old bmw with 10 inch screan indo have usb But dont have any android or waze installed on car
I have an Android radio without carplay function. If I buy the Carlinkit 5.0 or the AA WIRELESS and connect it to the Android radio, will I then have the CarPlay function or will the Carlinkit 5.0 only be for cars that already have a cable-connected CarPlay?
I had mine for 6 months. Riddled with problems after a few weeks of having it. Got so bad that it started disconnecting itself every 30 seconds. Dealt with customer service for 4 months and nothing fixed the constant issues. Then they said it's android autos fault. I got a refund and I'll be waiting for them to actually create a working product before I buy again. Btw, the best update made it way worse. They then allowed me to download the oldest version and that didn't help.
You probably need a different cable cause the cable has a disconnection problem to begin with and buying the dongle is to solve the wire constantly disconnecting
@@turboman4635 it's a brand new cable that works fine with all other phones. Their product just sucks and their CS is atrocious. Will not be recommending this to anyone. Its so bad i can't even give it away
Salut. 95% din timp functioneaza impecabil. Are 2 aspecte negative: nu ii plac pornirile dese (de exemplu: daca merg cu masina, opresc la benzinarie 2 minute si apoi repornesc, refuza sa se mai conecteze. Am vazut ca un interval de pauza de 10 min e OK) si uneori arata pozitia GPS aiurea pe harta (dar cred ca e mai degraba de la telefon decat de la device).
I have been using AA Wireless dongle for for over 2 years with my s21 ultra never had a problem until 4 days ago when I purchase the z fold 5 I get as far as searching for phone and then Android auto just cycles back and does it all over again my phone is saying paired but still won't connect I'm starting to wonder if my galaxy watch 5 is the cause of this problem because everytime aa wireless turns blue and is trying to connect on Bluetooth settings in my car my watch shows up first on list.
@@recanything What phone you have now? S23 Ultra on Skoda doesn't work even on cable... The phone sees the connection but the car says connection failed. I would try buying this AAWWireless to fix the issue, hopefully.
hello. does the original handsfree work in the car? the other adapters are connected via Bluetooth and the original connection to the radio does not work
Does it consume the car's battery when the car is off? Trying to think if it would be safe to leave it plugged in if i don't use the car for a couple of days or so

You're welcome!
Great video, can we set up 2 Phones on it, and do we have to do the set every time we change phones?
I like what I see! Tell us how it behaves in time! 👍
I'll keep you posted
@@recanything how has it been working for you?
I'm curious how the device has been functioning since you updated this video.
Nice enthusiastic presentation! QUESTION: In the winter, when it gets below the freezing point, does it still perform as well?
I saw this dong in 2020 but it was out yet, totally forgot about it until now. Just ordered one!
It is simply amazing! I'm using it every single day ! 👍
If I may ask, how long does it take to start up and connect after you start your car?@@recanything
@@Duci1989 about 10-15 seconds
i bought mine last years and works wonderfully!!!
A great device! 😍
My car has USB A will it work?
Good video thanks but I don't get it. It's just as quick for me to plug the phone into the car as it takes to plug in the AAwireless 🤷♂
But the AAwireless is plugged only once, and then you leave it in the car forever, while the phone is plugged on every trip...that's the difference!
Thank you for this very helpful and insightful video tutorial. Great job!
Glad it was helpful!
Helpful Video!
While using AA Wireless, is it possible to inductively charge your smartphone in the car (provided, of course, that there is an inductive charging cradle in the car) to limit the loss of your smartphone's battery level?
Yes, it is possible, but the smartphone will overheat like hell. For long distances I recommend charging via cable
Does the steering wheel buttons work ? Like play pause next previus track and volume work ? Im interested to buy this thing but i dont really want to lose the steering wheel functions
Yes, they do work.

Ahoj, chci se zeptat, když opustím auto a zamknu ho, tak aa wireless se nabíjí nebo se to odpojí z usb zdroje? Mám škoda Octavia 3. Díky za info.
Thank you for the good review. Does the Google assistant work with this wireless device? Such as "Hey, Google".
I'm not sure if it depends on the car or not, but mine works with hey Google
I wish there was a usb flash drive type to take up less room and eliminate wires.
You know that there are some adapters doing exactly that....

Or is that that the only purpose?

You need to be connected to the cars head unit for hands free calling to work, even when using android auto
thank you, video is useful. but the device is not on sale in India.
does the car has wired factory carplay from the factory and this divice just make it wireless ? or this car dont have not carplay nor android play ?
The car has wired factory android auto. This device makes it wireless, that's all

Does this work on a 2024 toyota corolla?
Salut, foarte tare. Ma gandeam sa il achizitionez si eu de la Autoextra. Ai avut vreo problema cu el de cand il folosesti?
Salut. De vreo 2 ori a trebuit sa ii scot alimentarea caci se blocase la pornirea masinii, dar in rest functioneaza impecabil.
Wonderful review. Thank you😊
Thanks!
Salut. Cum se comportă după 4 luni de folosire? Se agață, a dat erori? Am înțeles că unii au avut probleme cu calitatea sunetului sau în convorbire se aude apelul pe telefon nu pe mașină. Ms
De auzit se aude bine, dar uneori se blocheaza la opriri si porniri scurte (de ex cand opresc la benzinarie) si trebuie sa il resetez.
Is there play store in the AA so you can download any app you like to the screen?,i can not se it on your screen
No, it is not. This device is just for mirroring the Android Auto, that's it.
Salut. F tare. Am si eu nevoie de un dispozitiv asemanator. Ai un link de unde il putem achizitiona?
What about the music? Say... Spotify?
What kind of car infotainment is compatible please advise
Loke old bmw with 10 inch screan indo have usb
But dont have any android or waze installed on car
It works on cars supporting wired Android Auto. It doesn not provide Android Auto on its own if your car doesn't have it.
I have an Android radio without carplay function. If I buy the Carlinkit 5.0 or the AA WIRELESS and connect it to the Android radio, will I then have the CarPlay function or will the Carlinkit 5.0 only be for cars that already have a cable-connected CarPlay?
This is only for cars that support wired Android Auto.
Play Store or APK installer available on it?
I got mine and it disconnects from the cars headunit every 30 seconds... Unusable so far. I've tried it in pass through mode with no luck
Did you update the device software via the app? Mine is working fine so far.
@@recanything yep, on the latest firmware. Hopefully I'll find something online that helps troubleshoot the problem

No, you need to have wired Android Auto by default. It just transforms it into wireless Android Auto
@@recanything Thanks
Nice video brother. Thank you for sharing.
Does your head unit have to have Android Auto already?
Yes

Does the app automaticly start on the phone or do I have to start it everytime I enter the car or have it open in the background?
You don't have to open the app. Just leave the bluetooth and wifi open on your phone and that's it!
hello. does the original handsfree work in the car? the other adapters are connected via Bluetooth and the original connection to the radio does not work
My car is the same,octavia 2019
Yes, the car bluetooth works fine.
great product. everything works. perfect. after changing the DPI to 125 in the Octavia 2019, the resolution is beautiful.
What is the phone battery consumption via this device?
From what I saw...around 10% for 30 min driving, in a Samsung S21 Ultra
Does it consume the car's battery when the car is off? Trying to think if it would be safe to leave it plugged in if i don't use the car for a couple of days or so
If your power supply is cut when you turn off the engine, then no.

Sorry to hear that! Mine is working fine so far.
Bought this 6 weeks ago, stopped connecting. The support from AA wireless is abysmal. Don't buy this product.
Did you try resetting the head-unit of your car? Mine did the same a few times, but I did a reset on my car's unit and it was ok
@@recanything I got a refund from Amazon , great customer service, more than I can say about AA Wireless. Stay away from this company is my opinion
Motorola MA1 better
But you can't find it...it's always out of stock...
The Motorola has a very short, fixed cable. Not very convenient. I got my aawireless in April and have no problems at all. I love it.
@@markfll you can use whatever cable you like. this isn't a reason choosing one versus other
@@sonic592 It's a very good reason to choose one over the other. With a longer cable, you can store the unit almost anywhere in the car.
@@sonic592 Unless they changed it from last April, the cable on the Motorola is a fixed 6 inch. That's why I decided on the other unit.

It works with any car that supports WIRED Android Auto.

No
