Android Auto undergoes wireless adapter compatibility testing

Android Auto is already a safer and more convenient way to use navigation and music apps in your car, but it’s even better when it’s wireless. We’ve added a new compatibility test to check if your car not only works with Android Auto, but also with a wireless Android Auto adapter.

Google’s Android Auto platform is relatively new to the automotive world, having only started being widely supported around 2016-2017, depending on the car manufacturer. That’s when Android Auto and Apple CarPlay became standard equipment on most new cars. But wireless support is still a rarity even in cars built nearly a decade later.

That’s why wireless adapters for Android Auto and CarPlay are so useful. But still, it’s always good to know whether such an adapter will also work with your car.

The folks behind AAWireless, the first wireless adapter for Android Auto, launched a new compatibility test this week. Just enter your car’s make, model and year to see if your vehicle supports wireless Android Auto adapters, especially his AAWireless. However, technically speaking, largely If AAWireless works, the adapter works.

To use this new wireless Android Auto compatibility tool, simply visit the AAWireless website. Enter your name, then the brand and model of your car. You will then be asked to narrow down the year of manufacture of your vehicle. Finally, you will be asked to enter your email. AAWireless points out that this is not used to send marketing emails, but the results will also appear on his web page when you click “Send.” Unfortunately, there is no way to bypass entering your email address.

To coincide with the release of this new tool, AAWireless will also be discounted Priced at $59.49 at the company’s online store. This dongle is also 15% off the regular price on Amazon. The sale is running until April 2nd.
