RockRose FreeDrive - Compatible with iOS & Android Carplay Wireless Adapter

I purchased this a while back and wanted to leave it a while before reviewing to see if there was any issue but nope ! this thing is solid, I have drove countless hours in the car with it with multiple times turning the car on and off a day or super long car trips without the engine being tuned off and this thing just powers through it. now mater how hard you push it it doesnt even heat up it stays cold to the touch no mater what. what a great product dispite being on the higher price side.

Works well and automatically connects whenever I start the vehicle. Works well and automatically connects whenever I start the vehicle.

It works fine in my Subaru WRX (2018 - Japan import), but I had to remove the stereo out and connect the USB cable from the back in order to get it to work. Strongly recommended to do a bit of research before buying it!

Other than that, it's good. The response speed is a bit slow, but it's not a problem at all.

Great price, works flawlessly, follow instructions and it is easy to install, do NOT skip instructions. Great price, works flawlessly, follow instructions and it is easy to install, do NOT skip instructions.

I bought two for each of my cars whose manufacturers GPS is now out of date and too expensive to license.
It's great no longer having to plug into the cable, has worked quickly and every time so far and know Google Maps will always be more up to date, than my Car GPS.
As per others advice, followed instructions carefully with no issue, but they are printed very small. Almost needed a magnifying glass. Haha.

However, I missed the requirement to already have the Factory wired convertor the USB connects to, so for my 2nd car it's useless without the updated USB ports, connecting to the factory GPS.

Didn't discover till after the 7day return period, so it's still in its packet. Be aware, it needs the wired convertor to Factory GPS.

As long as you read through the instructions once before trying to connect - it is a smooth and simple experience.
Works first time and reconnects quicker than the cabled Android Auto was. Worth the money too, as replacing a head-unit for wireless would cost so much more. As long as you read through the instructions once before trying to connect - it is a smooth and simple experience.

Talk about a game changer! Just being able to hop in the car without worrying about plugging it in so that it connects to the car has been the most!

Definitely worth paying extra as the original one is had intended to purchase was out of stock. Talk about a game changer! Just being able to hop in the car without worrying about plugging it in so that it connects to the car has been the most!

This was very easy to setup.
The paper instructions are not all that clear but if you follow the on screen steps it works great.
One thing to note with this and others like it, being close to or connected to home wifi may delay connection. This was very easy to setup.
