Apple’s CarPlay platform is wildly convenient, making everything from navigation to entertainment easy while you’re behind the wheel. However, that convenience is undercut if you need to plug in your iPhone whenever you start the car. If your car can’t swing wireless CarPlay, no problem. The Ottocast US-Air Wireless CarPlay Adapter converts your vehicle’s wired system into a wireless one in a matter of moments.
Normally, the Ottocast would cost $89, but you can save a bunch with this new, open-box deal. Get a wireless CarPlay adapter for only $49.99 and free your iPhone from the cable.
No need to plug your phone into your car
Here at Cult of Mac, we love CarPlay because it lets you seamlessly access Apple Music, podcasts and those crucial turn-by-turn navigation instructions. One thing we don’t love about it, though, is plugging in our iPhones every time we go for a ride. A wireless CarPlay adapter like the Ottocast cures that problem.
This compact CarPlay adapter plugs into your vehicle so your phone doesn’t have to. The Ottocast runs on a dual-core 1.0 GHz Arm Cortex A7 processor, with dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) and Bluetooth 5.0 for fast and reliable data transmission. The plug-and-play design requires no modifications to your vehicle. Just use either of the USB-A or USB-C cables included with your purchase.
This reliable adapter is compatible with more than 800 car models and a wide range of smart devices. Cars need to be factory wired for CarPlay compatibility between 2016 and 2024, and iOS devices need to be running iOS 10 or newer. BMW owners are out of luck, unfortunately, but iPhones from the original SE through the 15 Pro Max all work with this wireless CarPlay adapter.
(If your car doesn’t come with a built-in screen, you should consider buying an after-market CarPlay touchscreen.)
Save on Ottocast, a wireless CarPlay adapter
Update your car with a wireless CarPlay adapter that turns cable frustration into an afterthought. For a limited time, you can get the Ottocast U2-Air Wireless CarPlay Adapter 2022 Edition on sale for just $49.99 (regularly $89). Remember: This is a new, open-box deal, so supplies are limited.
