Yeah, as soon as I updated to iOS 13 it stopped working for me.

Has anyone used these stand alone units and switched to the new Beats android auto?

Wondering how they compare other than no stand alone with beats.

Let's see if anyone can find a low profile active powered usb hub w/ power delivery.
See my solution for Qi charging mat in an earlier post. I like it and works pretty good

They should not say anything. If you install this box, the logical question is - do i void the warranty. I read somewhere that the answer is, not necessarily so. To reject repair under the factory warranty, they will need to prove that the defect was caused by our alteration of the system i.e. that the defect was caused by the CarPlay Box. Usually this will be tough to prove...

Saw a couple of questions about CarPlay version update. I had the “software update available” message for both the Box and the CarPlay.
The Box update went smoothly, no issues.
The CarPlay update downloaded and started install. It was spinning for 10-20 min without result. Tried it a few times. See picture.

anyone experiencing similar issue?

there is a prompt, asking if to install the update over the old version, appears and disappears quickly, you need to make that prompt appear to click yes. I don't know a way how I did it, I just randomly move the cursor. Probably plugging in a USB mouse can help(?). I asked this before, but there is no good solution to this problem.

Yes, I'm in a 2013 F-Sport. We only get half the screen real estate as the 2016's and up but it still works great. I've watched this thread for over a year before pulling the trigger and should have done it sooner.

I wish there were a way to speak about the different version they have. I really want CarPlay and but I am confused about which ISAILT version product to buy for my particular vehicle which is a 2019 RX350 FSport with ML audio and I'd prefer the one with wireless CarPlay.


When you're looking through their different version they have some with more memory and different firmware versions.

I would recommend sending a message to the seller and ask them directly.

the box is just android OS. The Carplay, whether wired only or wireless, is determined by the dongle that plug to the box usb port.

EDIT: replied to wrong thread

Just ask them through the message system on Aliexpress. They'll usually have you take a picture of your system to make sure it's compatible and point you to the correct version. Did that for both my 2013 GS and our 2016 NX.
