Excellent tool. The 'Auto' part is just marketing. You can use this through the aux jack to make a old 'dumb' stereo receiver into a smart one. Quick, easy bluetooth/wifi/smart assistant access to anything that you can plug headphones into.

There's a workaround to prevent Alexa from making these kind of suggestions, including upsell recommendations.....

Wanna stop Alexa from EVER saying "By the way" and offering you a suggestion you absolutely DO NOT CARE ABOUT? Here's how:

Say to any of your devices, "Alexa.... stop By The Way". If she says "Okay, I will snooze my suggestions for now", then you can count on a couple of days of silence and will know that the command works. (The command will not necessarily work on ALL devices. If it doesn't work on the one you tried, try another). Next, we get tricky and get her to shut up forever.

Open the Alexa App and do the following:
1: More > Routines > New (the "+" in the upper corner)
2: Enter Routine Name > give it a name (I use "Shut Up"), tap Next
3: When This Happens> Schedule > At Time
4: Repeat=Every Day, At Time=2am (my preference, choose the time you want), tap Next
5: Add Action > Custom > 'stop by the way' (without quotes), tap Next
6: Choose Device: Pick one of your devices, tap Save

Important.... while this will apply to ALL of your devices, the device you pick in step 6, at the time you select in step 4, will respond when the routine runs by saying, "Okay, I will snooze my suggestions for now". My suggestion is to have this run overnight while you're asleep, but have it run ON a device that won't disturb you when it talks. I use my Garage Flex at 2am, since it's unlikely I'll be sleeping out there then.

By having the routine run daily, it should permanently remove the "By The Way" suggestions from your life, since each request gives you 2-3 days of peace. This will work until Amazon catches on and changes their software.

My smart home setup is centered around Alexa and the Echo system. I have had Echo Auto since it came out in both of my vehicles (now 2023 & 2024 models) because this device works better than any integrated Amazon Alexa I have ever used in a vehicle. Highly recommend if you're a heavy Alexa user. In for 2 as spares.

This is obviously a 'paid promotional' staff posting. Sometimes, these types of posts are actually useful. Not this, though. I just don't support Roku or Amazon devices (Meta too). Remember, YOU are the product with devices that require account integration to operate.

Yes, my tin foil hat is just fine but I'm right about these types of devices.
Yeah. They are much worse than Apple … who is paying out a settlement for Siri

Second this. I love this thing. For older vehicles that don't have Android Auto or CarPlay but DO have an aux, this thing is actually fantastic.

I use it to make an announcement before I get home. That way my kids are ready to go to their activities.

My Alexa just asks me if I want to sign up for Amazon Music incessantly. Wish I could just ask it to spot asking me that. This one will probably just tell me to stop by my nearest whole foods store.

All I ever wanted Alexa to do was play music.
Now I get a spoken word essay on why I should upgrade to their paid tier of music streaming since they've made the included version crap. Basically bricked 3 echo's. I have learned the lesson that devices that require an internet connection for basic use are temporary and don't actually belong or work for me.

You'd have to pay me to put this in my car.

Not sure on gen 2, but gen 1 could be used as a standard Bluetooth reciever if your car does not have one without any Alexa features.

$15 for a usb powered Bluetooth receiver that will turn on and off with your car (eg usb powered with no battery) is a pretty good deal.

I purchased one when first launched. It was buggy to say the least. I didn't see the need for it. It now sits in a drawer somewhere.

nice tracking machine.
good luck with you insurance rates.

You're thinking of those trackers that plug in via the OBII port like Progressive Insurance's "Snapshot" program.
