AA Wireless
I just received my AA Wireless for Android Auto and since my 2019 camaro can't pull up maps or do voice to text like the 2021 models can wirelessly this tiny little box can make it happen. First time using it this morning and it worked flawlessly it is pretty awesome not having to use a usb cord. It did take about 3 months for this device come in but the wait was worth it. Once you get it you down load the AA app from the play store, plug in the device and about 10 seconds or less you are now all wireless.

I'm not sure about the AA wireless module you're posting about, but the AppleCarplay module made by the same manufacture worked spotty at best, barely would connect, was a hunk of junk......I went with the WAMS module to replace the original one and everything connects within seconds and works like stock, hell it is stock from GM so it should.....just my .02.......moral of the story i hope this one works better than the CarPlay one.

This project started out back in 2018 as a Indiegogo crowdsourced project. The initial prototypes were a little bigger in had issues because of all the different makes of cell phones and infotainment system. It wasn't until about late 2019 when this team refined there project and finally got most of the bugs worked out. Now 2021 and this little box seems to working like a charm as they have improved it to perfection. Here are pictures of there prototype.

I've read a lot of really good feedback about this little add-on. The body shop manager of a local dealership has one that he's had some quirks with in his truck, and I suspect that it may be related to him not breaking the BT connection between the head unit and phone directly (and have given him a few things to try but he hasn't gotten around to it yet).
On the one hand, I like the idea of this. OTOH, I may not need it. Hint hint. |

It looks cool, but I don't know if I'd benefit from having one. If I truly think about the amount of time I plug my phone in today to use AA, it's maybe if I'm lucky once every few months. Normally all I do is let it connect Bluetooth and stream Pandora. If I was connecting usb for AA all the time, for sure I'd get one of these.

I'm patiently awaiting mine! I'll be SO glad when I can get rid of that USB cable.

I have one of the early AAWireless units and it works wonderfully (I posted a short review here). Being able to slap my (reasonably modern) Android 11 phone on the wireless charging pad and then almost instantly having a fast AA connection while the phone is charging, no messing with cables and figuring out where to put the phone without getting tangled up, is priceless. I also added a pair of small phone nets that I (and the front row passenger) can easily drop the phone into when charging is not neeeded.

The reason why I purchase this device is because certain phones such as the s21 ultra are having problems when connected to Android auto with a usb- c cord. So far one week in and this device is working amazing. As I have stated before with this device I can now do voice to text and pull up Google maps, cause without this to go completely wireless I can't do voice to text or pull up Google maps unless I'm connected with a usb-c cable.
