A wireless carplay adaptor that actually seems to work reliably?!

[OzricEV]

I've a Carlinkit 5.0 and it works without any issues on android auto except the usb port seems to always be powered when the car is locked.
Anyone experienced this?

I think there's some type of timer on the power to the usb. Mine sometimes doesn't reconnect to the adaptor for a while if I just jump out of the car for a few minutes and back in.
Quickly pulling the adaptor and plugging back in gets it back immediately.

I went with this in my Xpower, works a treat with 30 second delay so just leaving it at that. (iPhone)

I have a couple of these, one in the XPower and the other in a Seat Leon, and can highly recommend.

I’m finding that when using google maps, after about 30 minutes, the head unit reverts to the main screen and I cannot get CarPlay back unless I unplug the adapter and re-insert though the audio navigation commands still work as if CarPlay is connected.
This only happens when using the wireless charging shelf though; if the phone stays in my pocket, it doesn’t cut out.
Happens every time I use the charging shelf and with two different iPhones, a XS and 14 model. Sort of negates the usefulness of a wireless setup so for journeys longer than my commute, I still need to go wired; plus the phone shifts on the shelf so cannot guarantee it is constantly charging which also might be causing a conflict somewhere in the setup.
