Wireless CarPlay Upgrade

This adapter converts a vehicle's factory wired Apple CarPlay system into a wireless connection. It is designed for iPhone owners who want to keep their phone in a pocket or bag while retaining full access to navigation, media and voice control on the infotainment screen.

Replaces a Wired Link

The device plugs into the car's existing USB or Type-C port, eliminating the need for a physical Lightning cable every time you drive. The jump is worth it if you frequently enter and exit the vehicle and want automatic reconnection without handling a cable.

Limited to Factory CarPlay

Wireless functionality only works in vehicles that already offer built-in wired Apple CarPlay; it cannot add CarPlay to a head unit that lacks it. The 5 GHz Wi-Fi link requires a compatible iPhone and a stable radio environment inside the cabin.
