I’ve been using CarPlay adapters for nearly 10 years. I can’t believe how far they have come. My last device was the Carlinkit 4.0 and it worked smooth most of the time but this little thing has been even better. I couldn’t use my old device because it was too big for my Toyota GR86. The small version fits anywhere there’s a USB and stays out of the way. Couldn’t be happier.
Thank you for the great review — and it means a lot coming from someone who's been using CarPlay adapters for nearly a decade!
We're glad the smaller size worked out for your GR86 — fitting cleanly out of the way is exactly what we aimed for with this design. And 'even better than the Carlinkit 4.0' is high praise indeed.
Enjoy the drive, and here's to many more years of smooth CarPlay!
Works Great
Thank you for your positive feedback! We're glad to hear that the Carlinkit Mini Ultra is working great for you. Happy driving!
For a little more than 2x’s the cost of a new lightening cable (which always seem to fail) I got this. Very discrete and nearly flawless operation. I did have one instance so far where the screen in my Ridgeline froze but even so I’ll take that over a cable anytime. I also have the corded model on my bike, CRF1100. It’s hidden under a panel and therefore less prone to theft. I like it too.
Hi, i just came back from my vacation and I truly appreciate your updates about my feedback of my purchase from your website anyway it’s work great and I’m happy to have it
Thanks for this amazing adapter
My 2018 Goldwing has Honda GPS Mapping but my Truck has had Car Play for a few years. The difference between the 2 mapping programs are like night and day . Needless to say I love Car play and thought I’d try it on the bike . It was the right decision . Interesting to note that Honda now uses CarPlay on its 2025 Goldwings .
I’ve had my Mini Ultra for a few weeks now, and I love it.
- It arrived in excellent, well protected packaging.
- The dongle is tiny! I knew it was going to be small, but I was still surprised how compact it looks in person.
- Installation was a snap. Instructions, while sparse, were clear. Plug in, pair with Bluetooth, connect to local WiFi. Done.
- CarPlay automatically connects within a few seconds of starting the car.
This has been, by far, my number one quality-of-life purchase for my car.

Definitely going to be purchasing again for my other vehicles it runs smoothly with no issues at all and very easy to set up. When I was using the cable it would always disconnect after a few minutes which became really annoying so if you have the same issue I recommend purchasing this because it will make using CarPlay so much more enjoyable.
Thank you so much for the great review and recommendation! We're thrilled to hear it's running smoothly for you and that setup was a breeze. Enjoy CarPlay across all your vehicles — we appreciate your support and look forward to serving you again! 🏍️

It worked well out of the box and connects fast

If you ever need anything down the line, just reach out. Enjoy the ride! 🚗
Hooks up to my phone really quickly. Unfortunately, when I get a text message it will not say the whole message. It’s stops about 3/4 of the way through.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear the adapter connects to your phone quickly.
We are sorry that Siri stops reading text messages partway through. This issue is often related to Siri announcement settings, wireless audio transmission or firmware.
Please try these steps:
1. Go to iPhone Settings > Siri & Search > Announce Notifications, confirm Announce New Messages for CarPlay is enabled.
2. Forget the adapter and car in CarPlay settings, then re-pair.
3. Update the adapter to the latest firmware.
If the problem persists, feel free to contact our support team for further troubleshooting.
Works as intended.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We're delighted to hear that the product works as intended. If you ever need any assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. Enjoy your day!
I have so far had minimal issues with the unit coming from a Motorola MA1 that failed within a year of purchase. I enjoy the size being much smaller. At this time, I would highly recommend the unit. I have only used on Android Auto so far and have yet to test apple car play on it.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review and for recommending us!
I'm really glad the switch from the Motorola MA1 worked out well — hearing that our unit has been running smoothly with minimal issues is exactly what we hope for. And yes, the compact size is something we're proud of. 😊
Whenever you get a chance to try wireless CarPlay, feel free to let us know how it goes — we'd love to hear your feedback.
Thanks again for your support, and enjoy your drive!
Works great, still learning how to use.

The firat one I had worked great, I just had to find a place for it. Wasn't hard, But the ultra is really nice you don't even see it in my car anyway. Works great
Thank you for the review and for being a repeat customer! We designed the Ultra to be as compact and invisible as possible, so we're glad you noticed. Happy driving!
Ive been using the Carlinkit Mini Ulta for 2 weeks now in my 2017 VW Golf with no issues, and it fits in that tight little spot VW located the USB port. The connection to my iphone is super fast, and so far no drop outs. It does exactly what you hope it will do!
Thank you so much for your great feedback! We're really happy to hear that the Carlinkit Mini Ultra has been working flawlessly in your 2017 VW Golf and that the connection to your iPhone is fast and stable. It's great to know it fits perfectly in that tight USB spot too!
Thanks again for sharing your experience. Enjoy your drives!
Works great. It is so much easier not having to connect a cable for navigation. It also allows me to keep the phone hidden away on the wireless charger in the center armrest.
Thank you for your nice review! Glad to hear the wireless Android Auto works perfectly on your 2022 Highlander. Enjoy the cable-free driving experience! If you need any help later, feel free to contact us.
I would like to be able to change the name of BT since it’s generic name written on my car display, such as ABCD_1234. Would like to be able to change it to “My awesome car”. Other rhan that it works like a charm.
Thank you for your great review and valuable suggestion! We totally understand your idea to customise the Bluetooth name instead of the default generic one like ABCD_1234.
We will forward this feature request to our R&D team for consideration in future updates. Glad to hear the device works perfectly for you! Safe rides!
It's great accessory for cars that don't have wireless capabilities, Loving it so far.!!!👍

Good.. seamless connectivity

The Carlinkit Mini Ultra is a nice update to my Carlink 5.0 2Air. It connects much faster. my 2Air worked fine but I normally waited about 20 seconds before I started to drive. Now, with the Ultra, it beats to the punch. It's also a lot smaller so I don't need to sick the 2Air on my console.
Thanks for your valuable feedback!
We’re glad you feel the obvious upgrades of Carlinkit Mini Ultra over the 5.0 2Air. This new model features fast Bluetooth pairing speed and a much smaller compact design to free up your console space.
We’re delighted this new unit improves your daily driving experience, thank you for your support!
Best Regards,
