If your car (head radio unit) has wired Android Auto or/and Carplay capability, this device makes it wireless. So it basically makes the connection between your car and your android phone or your iPhone wireless. Instead of plugging in USB cable from your car to your phone every time to make connection, you plug this device in to your USB port on your car, and the connection to your phone would be wireless.

Hopefully I won't confuse you even more.

Purchased 2 on the last deal, got pretty scared after seeing some of the comments that this is a shill post and these aren't good but I've been running one in my car and one in my wife's car for CarPlay for the last 2-3 weeks and they work just as good as the Motorola MA1 worked for me which I believe is pretty universally regarded as the best Android Auto device. Also a whole lot easier to setup. No regrets so far.

Biggest drawback which is Pass for me: you cannot pair this with multiple phones. Some other similar devices have that functionality

Is it easy to switch phones when 2 drivers are using the same car? I returned MA1 1.5 years ago because it was a royal pain.

I accidentally placed the order because the "submit" button is labelled "continue". Very sneaky. How good is their return policy?
Asks which phone you want to connect to on startup. At least when using CarPlay , not sure if functionality is the same for android auto

I don't think CarPlay or Android Auto supports that functionality so I doubt it.

Can I add more apps to it like Netflix, or does it just do the same as my car now, but wireless.

There is no free return and probably no return at all. If you want this brand better to get from Amazon for $54 right now.
Agreed
