A plug-and-play adapter that lets your phone connect to the car's display wirelessly, for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Instead of plugging a cable in every time you get in, the phone connects on its own once it has been paired, so your maps, music and calls come up on the dashboard screen as soon as you start the car and the cable stays in the glovebox.
Type: wireless CarPlay and Android Auto adapter
Plug and play, no software changes to the car
In the box: 1 adapter
Fitment: check the listing details for the car systems, connector type and phone versions it supports before ordering, as compatibility depends on your car's own head unit.
Practical tip: pair it on the driveway with the car parked, and keep the phone's Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on so it reconnects automatically. Once it is set up you should not need to touch the phone at all while driving, which is the point: holding a phone at the wheel carries 6 penalty points and a £200 fine. See our first car checklist.
