OTTOCAST Mini Edge, 2 in 1 Wireless Carplay Adapter & Wireless Android Auto Adapter for Apple iPhone Samsung or other AndroidPhone, USB Bluetooth Car Accessories for OEM Wired Carplay/Android Auto Car

This tiny device that is shaped like a thumb drive (and looks like one, too) turns a car that is configured and equipped for wired Apple Car Play or wired Android Auto into wireless Apple Car Play or Android Auto. There is little or no set up. Turn Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on in your phone, plug the device into the same port you use for a wired connection, pair your phone with the Ottocast via Bluetooth, and <boom> you are good to go. As you can imagine the instructions are sparse, so if you run into a glitch, you are probably going to have to figure it out for yourself. I did have a glitch. I went through the process of mating the phone and the Ottocast several times, so that I was connected wirelessly through Android Auto, but when I started the car back up, the connection would be gone. My car also has a Wi-Fi node that can be connected to for internet service, but it must be used exclusive of Android Auto or Apple Car Play. My phone was set up to automatically re-connect to that Wi-Fi connection, so when the car was re-started, the phone was connecting to the Toyota Wi-Fi rather than my phone's Wi-Fi. I disabled the auto connection to the phone's Wi-Fi, and when I started back up, the phone was automatically connected to Android Auto. Although Bluetooth is used for the initial pairing and set up, the connections there after are done via Wi-Fi. So far, so good. What a convenience to get rid of the wire!

Half the price of other defective brands and works great and very fast connection. Plug pair and play.

This thing worked great...For a month and a half...Conveniently just beyond the available return period. I was really excited to have this wireless connectivity and it was very easy to set up and worked great at first. However, just yesterday my phone would connect to the unit...But it would not launch Android Auto on my 2020 Honda CRV. Then, my phone would lose connection with the unit...Then reconnect...Then lose connection again...And reconnect again...And again...I think you get the idea. Then, when I tried to connect my phone using the wire/cord...It would not even open up Android Auto using the old reliable wired method. Long story short...After some Google searching, I found out how to reset my Infotainment System...And once I did that...I was able to use Android Auto using the wired method. I tried several times again to get the wireless unit to connect...But to no avail. Unfortunately wasted $60.00 on a unit that only last a little more than a month...All I can say is...Caveat Emptor...Let the Buyer Beware.

Works on 2024 Ford Bronco 100% - I tried 3 others before OTTOCAST and ALL the others failed. I was finally successful with this purchase. Easy set-up and automatically connects when I get in. All controls on steering wheel work. Fast music and phone connectivity. GPS/Google maps doesn't lag. GREAT PURCHASE!

Not connecting to phone immediately. Sometimes need to disconnect and reconnect the device for it to work, but one is connected it’s great.

So I've tried several Android Auto adapters (Motorola MA1 and AA wireless) and none of them have worked for me. I have a 2021 Chevy Traverse and my issue is the USB ports aren't powered when the car is off. The other adapters I tried always had issues reconnecting and I'd end up having to reset to factory. This adapter has been bullet proof as far as reconnecting and startup. Super easy to install and I've actually kind of forgotten it's there which is exactly what I wanted.

Edit (Dec 2025): Unit now overheats on longer drives. On a 5 hour trip I had to unplug it about every hour to cure audio glitching. It takes it approximately 30 min to cool each time. The right angle connector now has a short in it that causes every minor bump to disconnect it for a moment and I have to wait for everything else to reconnect. It’s not even 6 months old yet, buyer beware. Lowered one star for utter lack of longevity. Original Review: I’m not sure of the durability over the long haul. Just as my return window closed, it froze up and it took me several hours to get it to work again. While that’s the only glitch, a different (cheaper) brand I was using did the same thing right before dying completely. That said, when it works it’s good, the 90° connector and low profile size is appreciated due to the location of the port on my Voyager minivan.

This is my second android adapter. The first one was from another company. It gets three stars because it is problematic when connecting to my phone when I get in the car It will stay connected but it takes multiple trys . Very frustrating to need to keep plugging and unplugging while driving.

Good piece of kit, transforming your CarPlay. Connectivity is good and consistent. No deterioration in sound quality. It is what you expect it to be. Good value for money too.

Ottimo prodotto e di qualità

Très pratique pour connecter sans fil. Facile à utiliser

Funkar utmärkt med CarPlay och en Toyota RAV4. Bara plugga i och koppla upp. Sen funkar det automatiskt.

Lo utilizo en Peugeot 208 hdi del 2016 (no aparece en la lista de coches/año compatibles) tel Samsung S23ultra. Facil configurar. Enlaza con el telefono en 10 segundos como mucho. El sistema funciona con mucha fluidez y el audio sin retardos. Muy satisfecho con la compra. Lo recomiendo.
