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

Brilliant addition to the carThis was really easy to setup for Android auto and turned a wired setup fully wireless. They're had been no lag between the phone and screen and works great with multiple maps. Not had any issues with the device. Definitely recommend it

Update: still working perfectly, nearly a year after purchase. Have used it on two Euro trips one of which was 15 hrs on the road. For my car it sits in the centre console to plug into the usb port, it is well ventilated.I purchased to use in a 2018 Ford Focus ST, running Sync 3.5. For some reason hardly anyone leaving a review for Motor products actually provide the car model and age.I found that with music streaming and using maps navigation with the phone plugged in to my cars USB port, the minimal charge provided by the cars port. My phone would barley increase its charge level, even a four and a half hour drive with a start charge of 54%, the phone only reached 100% ten minutes. So I decided to find a way to use Android Auto wirelessly.After researching, I found a number of devices available on Amazon varying in price. I was drawn to the Motorola MA1, because of the self learning element built in to the device. Apparently it can over time optimise everything depending upon your usage and used preferences.I am only a week in to using it. The set up was really easy (if stuck just type in Motorola MA1 set up in to YOUTUBE), I just plugged it in, opened connected devices on my phone and asked it to look for new devices. It appeared within a second, after clicking to connect and allow permissions and connect automatically, it was done. Around 10 seconds later my car showed the Android auto option and it was fully up and running.It connects automatically a few seconds after my car screen has initialised, about 8 seconds from opening the drivers door (it has become a lot faster than the first few time I used it, so I take it the self learning thing works). I have had no drop outs. Admittedly I have not bee on any long journeys since purchase and I have not tried to stream video on the car screen via the YOUTUBE app. I have had music streaming from most of my music apps whilst using a navigation app.My only grip and it is not really with the Motorola MA1, it is actually with Google and Amazon. If you use the car screen to open the Amazon music app and play your library playlists for some reason not all of my downloaded to my phone playlists show on the library list displayed by the car and then when you select a play list it does not show all the downloaded to my phone tracks and plays them in shuffle mode. I have tried every setting, I have contacted Google and Amazon, both of whom blames the other for this widely know common issue. Which occurs whether you connect via a cable or wirelessly.

This worked great for about 4 months and then constantly disconnecting, reconnecting and then stopped working altogether with the unit getting extremely hot.Tried contacting Motorola support who talked me through all the reset options but nothing works. Just get a red light and nothing.Contacted Amazon for a return but they refused as it's out of the return window and they told me to contact the manufacturer, which I did. Motorola said not their problem and to go back to the retailer.Round and round in circles with no help from either Amazon or Motorola so I'm out of pocket by £70 and the proud owner of a piece of plastic junk aftet only 4 months use.Spend your money elsewhere and not on this piece of junk.Amazon customer service usually great but on this occaision it's non existent!

This is the second one I've ordered, the first went faulty it would not connect, but did it's job perfectly well for 3 years. Very easy to set-up, the only downfall is the price, you would think it would last longer with it being a reputable make, so I will see how long this one lasts. The only other thing is the gel pad supplied is neither use nor ornament doesn't hold for very long and it didn't on the first one I had. But I would still order another if this went faulty because when working it's excellent.

Setup was around 20 seconds. Works well. Tried a cheap copy and didn't work so was between this and aawireless

There are lots of wireless Android car adapter available on-line. Earlier reviews indicated that the AAWireless brand was the one to go for; but this was unavailable prior to Christmas. An available alternative was this Motorola MA1 adapter - an unknown quantity, chosen because of familiarity and good past experiences with items marketed under the Motorola brand. After two weeks use in a Toyota Corolla, which only had wired Android Auto available when the car was purchased, the device has worked perfectly, establishing a Bluetooth link between my OnePlus phone and the car quickly and reliably every time. Fortunately, in the Corolla, the positioning of the USB data socket means that the device hangs to one side of the passenger footwell, alongside the centre console - well out of the way of any of the car controls and of the passenger's knees.

Very good works perfectly. Took 3 mins to set up. My usb point is in the armrest, so plugged this in closed the armrest and left my phone in my pocket. Takes about 30 seconds to come on. I tried a cheaper one than this but you definitely get what you pay for
