FAQ

The indicator light of the wireless CarPlay adapter is still on after the car is turned off.

Possible Causes: Some cars will not immediately cut off all power when they are turned off, so the adapter light won't go off immediately either. If the car will always keep some power even when it's off, we can unplug the adapter when we get out of the car, so that we don't have to worry about the car battery. Solution: No operation is needed. Or unplug the adapter when the car is not in use.

Can't find the Bluetooth Autolink-xxxx of the wireless CarPlay adapter?

Possible Causes: 1) The smartphone's Bluetooth modules are malfunctioning. 2) The wireless CarPlay adapter is defective. Solution: If convenient, you can test it with another iPhone. If only a specific iPhone cannot find the Bluetooth of the wireless CarPlay adapter, please try to reset the network and Bluetooth settings of this iPhone and then restart the phone once. If the same problem happens on other iPhones, the unit may be defective. In this case, please let us know and we will refund you or send you a replacement.

Audio input or output issues: calls rejected or forwarded to voicemail /no play sound/microphone not working/music playback interrupted or paused/voice functioning abnormally.

The wireless CarPlay adapter wont pair with multiple phones? Why does pairing fail when using different mobile phones?

Possible Causes: Pairing occupied. Solution: The adapter can be paired with multiple iPhones, but it can't connect with them at the same time. In addition, the system will connect back to the last used iPhone due to the default function of Bluetooth.Therefore, before pairing with a new iPhone,please disconnect the currently connected iPhone and manually set the connection in the new iPhone.

When pairing, CarPlay does not start or the car prompts that the device is not compatible/does not recognize the USB
