Cut the cord and save $65 on wireless CarPlay

TL;DR: Add this 2024 version of the Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Wireless Adapter to compatible cars for $84.97, saving you $65 on a slim adapter that connects to your car automatically.

If your daily commute involves a tangle of charging cords and a split second of panic when your phone battery dips, this wireless adapter could make things a lot smoother for drivers who use Apple CarPlay or Android Auto and want a more convenient, cable-free experience. It adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality to compatible vehicles, letting you connect automatically every time you start the car … no plugging in required.

Powered by a Qualcomm QCM2290 processor and Android 11.0, the adapter efficiently handles navigation, messaging, calls, and streaming. Sixteen gigabytes of internal storage come standard, and entertainment apps such as YouTube and Netflix arrive preinstalled for passengers. Dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ensure a reliable connection, while TF card support (card not included) allows for additional storage if your needs grow.

It’s currently priced at $84.97 (MSRP: $149.99), which saves 43% off, through Dec. 7 at 11:59 p.m. PT.

Compatible with over 800 car models and both iOS and Android devices, this adapter covers a wide range of drivers. (It does not support vehicles with factory-installed wireless CarPlay, including select BMW, Tesla, Mazda, and Nissan models.) For those with wired CarPlay or Android Auto, it’s an efficient upgrade that doesn’t require a new head unit.

Commuters, rideshare drivers, and road trippers who depend on maps, playlists, or hands-free messaging will find this adapter a welcome addition — provided they currently use wired CarPlay or Android Auto. Automatic connection, multi-device Bluetooth support, and flexible storage make it especially useful for shared vehicles and drivers who want more from their tech.

If you’ve ever wished your dashboard felt a little more modern, this adapter makes that upgrade accessible.
