Motorola MA1 Wireless Android Car Adapter - Instant Connection from Smartphone to Car Screen with Easy Setup - Direct Plug-in USB Adapter - Secure Gel Pad Included

Product Information

I also bring up software and troubleshooting because it's hard to know what to do to fix anything that might come up, or even if the MA1 is responsible.

Despite wireless Android Auto having been around for a few years now, it’s still not yet been made available on most vehicles.Most newer cars will support wireless Android Auto, but it can be tricky to determine which vehicles have it and which don't. Has anyone used AA Wireless, Carsifi or Motorola MA1 wireless adaptor dongles/receivers yet with the Astra K? The LED will begin blinking blue, continue holding the adapter button down for at least 35 seconds, and then release only when the LED blinks green quickly. I still have a USB cable plugged into the second USB port, as I like the keep the phone charged on longer journeys, but day to day use, Android Auto fires up, just like you've plugged your phone into the car, without having to do or select anything.

I mostly tested it with the Pixel 6 Pro, and at worst, the MA1 just sipped a little power over the course of a drive.Wireless Android Auto support is something rarely seen built into cars, but the rise of third-party dongles has made it much easier to bring this functionality to cars that don’t already have it.
