Apple wired to Wireless CarPlay adapter - which is best?

[SGoody1]

Hi,
I have a 991.2 - which does have Wired Apple car play - but I keep forgetting my phone and leaving it in the car.
I believe there are adapters you can get - but they vary in quality - eg speed of connection etc.
Are there any specific ones you would recommend?
Are there any downsides to using them?
Any help, much appreciated.
Thanks

I bought one from https://ottoaibox.com/?syclid=2a66a796-d58a-4d73-aba0-51e6ee699238

Cost £38. There so many one piece USB devices available and “all” work well so best pick one and try it.

I would avoid those with a separate body and wired USB plug for reasons of size and mine worked intermittently.

Thanks - is that for the :

Ottocast Mini 3.0 Ultra Cube wireless CarPlay Android Auto Adapter?​

I am just a bit worried that one may be too "high" (as it is a cube shape) for placement within the armrest space for the car (which seems very narrow) - or can I plug it in elsewhere (I think there is a socket in the glove compartment)?

I have been using this for a couple of years now - its great and is tiny (fits right at the back of the arm rest.

Their current model does look an odd shape for the Porsche centre arm rest. Mine is a small c25mm x 5mm.

There are loads on Amazon with ratings to help you choose.

I would suggest you visit nmautomative.co.uk. They have a range of Car Play solutions which they offer proper support for. I have used them for a couple of full kits and Nicks support is excellent.

Thanks - but I have ordered one on Amazon yesterday (and it has just arrived) - a Lepwings Wireless car Play Adapter - which sells for under £20. Will try it out later - and report back in case anyone is interested.

I plugged it in - connected pretty easily with a pairing process - then off to the races - all seems to work fine.
After leaving the car overnight, and starting up the car today - the Apple Car Play came up on the screen immediately - so job done!!
