It is also very easy to set up the MA1: plug the adapter into your car’s Android Auto-enabled USB port and then pair the device to your phone via Bluetooth. It's one of the potential pitfalls of a device that, while singularly focused, doesn't have an easy way to interface with it when something doesn't seem right. This means your phone registers the connection the same way, so you’ll need a compatible device — one that supports 5GHz Wi-Fi and runs Android 11 or newer. All in all, it's a utility product that has one job to do, and when all goes well, it does that one job fairly well.

For detailed requirements, refer to the Google support page for wireless Android Auto at: https://support. If wireless Android Auto has not started after several minutes, reboot the phone, unplug/re-plug the dongle, and power cycle the car's infotainment system, preferably all at once. From ignition on to AA launching is more or less the time it takes the multimedia system to boot up, so about the same as plugging in via a cable. I'm pretty sure I read that the US Tucson has wireless AA, I'm not sure about the screen size, I just assumed it would be on the 10.I am considering something like this as I cannot stand wires, and plugging it in all the time is a bit of a faff! As I frequently have problems connecting Android Auto with cable (keeps cutting out and in when first plugged in) I'm wondering about one of the wireless dongles on market. I do like that it doesn't leave residue, only it also struggles to stick to textured surfaces, which are pretty common in dashboards and vehicle interiors.

To do so, you have to put it back to factory settings through a series of button presses where the LED changes color to indicate its status.

The Motorola MA1 eliminates the need to plug your phone into your car’s infotainment system every time you get into the vehicle. In comparison, with the same set up, the wireless charging pad in the house is around 800mA (5 hours full charge). Obviously not as instantaneous as using a cable, but hey, I'll take it if it means I can leave my phone free or use a wireless charging dock instead.You only need to concern yourself with this the very first time you connect, though it’s worth mentioning that it can only pair with one phone at a time. It may come with the potential for headaches at some point, but that's also speculative, and given what the MA1 can do, it is worth giving it a shot.

On your car screen, navigate to the Bluetooth phone list, and 'forget' or 'delete' all paired phones.Ah, that makes sense, but kind of makes the dongle pointless then if I still have to plug the phone in anyway to charge.
