FAQ's
If your vehicle is equipped with a factory-installed wired CarPlay system, then these products are compatible. This includes vehicles with both wired and wireless CarPlay function.
However, please note that this product is not compatible with vehicles that only have a wireless CarPlay connection such as the entire BMW series.
Three ways to check if your car has wired CarPlay function:
- Check if there is a CarPlay icon on the car audio screen: Some car manufacturers display the CarPlay icon on the car stereo screen.
- Use an iPhone to test each USB port on the car stereo: Connect the car stereo to the iPhone with a USB cable. If a pop-up window about using CarPlay appears on the phone, it means your car has a CarPlay function.
- Consult a car dealer
Turn your vehicle's display screen into a smart TV using the OneCarStereo AI Box. Simply plug the CarPlay AI Box into your car's USB port and the regular CarPlay or Android Auto screen will be replaced with our Android user interface. Connect to the internet (WiFi/4G SIM card), download any app, and start streaming video with the OneCarStereo Android Box.

Definitely not! The OneCarStereo CarPlay AI Box has minimal power consumption and won't significantly affect your car or phone battery. If the adapter’s light blinks after shutting off the car, it's just residual USB current. You can unplug it or ignore it — it will auto power off shortly.
Yes! The CarPlay AI Box works as a standalone infotainment system and will not interfere with your backup camera.
A wireless adapter won’t work unless your vehicle already supports CarPlay or Android Auto. Instead, install a new double-DIN stereo that supports wireless CarPlay and Android Auto.
