Two great CarPlay deals
Make CarPlay wireless and stream *to* your infotainment system
We have a pair of deals that’ll transform your experience of CarPlay.
First up is a streaming box that lets you beam content to your CarPlay head unit. With this streaming box (just $89.97 — 40% off the regular price), you can enjoy Netflix, HBO Max, YouTube and myriad other services normally blocked by CarPlay (for obvious safety reasons). Just don’t watch and drive!
Our second deal is the Ottocast US-Air Wireless CarPlay Adapter, which converts your vehicle’s wired CarPlay system into a wireless one.
Normally, the Ottocast would cost $89 (the price currently on Amazon and elsewhere), but you can save a bunch with this new, open-box deal.
Get a wireless CarPlay adapter for only $49.99 and free your iPhone from the cable.

Plug this CarPlay streaming box into your car’s infotainment system
You’ve likely binged all the John Wick movies from your couch or bed, but what if we told you it’s possible to stream in your car with a CarPlay streaming box? No, we’re not talking about simply watching Netflix or YouTube on your iPhone screen. You can stream right from your car’s roomy infotainment system.
This Apple CarPlay- and Android Auto-compatible adapter can transform your car’s built-in display into a moving smart TV. It’s on sale for only $89.97 — 40% off the regular price! — and all you need to do is plug it in to stream your favorite sci-fi series or thriller movies.
CarPlay streaming box brings movie theater experience to your car
Remember those mornings when you wanted to finish up an episode of Shameless or the Steve Jobs movie? You can do that with this CarPlay streaming box. It comes with popular streaming apps like Netflix, Disney+ and YouTube, so you can easily stream new or beloved shows and movies. If you notice any apps are missing, just go to the Google Play store to download them!
If you’re looking forward to cheering Team USA during the Olympics, add Hulu or Peacock to watch swimming, gymnastics, or the USWNT compete as you head to work. You could even add social media apps like TikTok to do some scrolling during a lunch break.
Like your Apple devices and other tech, this wireless CarPlay streaming box requires a steady internet connection to stream. You can use your iPhone’s personal hotspot when you’re on the go, but if you’re driving through an area with bad connectivity, consider using a memory card so your passengers or kids can watch movies offline without interruptions.
Bring your favorite shows and movies on the go with this Apple CarPlay and Android Auto-compatible wireless adapter for your car, now just $89.97 — 40% off the regular price.

No need to plug your phone into your car
Here at Cult of Mac, we love CarPlay because it lets you seamlessly access Apple Music, podcasts and those crucial turn-by-turn navigation instructions. One thing we don’t love about it, though, is plugging in our iPhones every time we go for a ride. A wireless CarPlay adapter like the Ottocast cures that problem.
This compact CarPlay adapter plugs into your vehicle so your phone doesn’t have to. The Ottocast runs on a dual-core 1.0 GHz Arm Cortex A7 processor, with dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) and Bluetooth 5.0 for fast and reliable data transmission. The plug-and-play design requires no modifications to your vehicle. Just use either of the USB-A or USB-C cables included with your purchase.
This reliable adapter is compatible with more than 800 car models and a wide range of smart devices. Cars need to be factory-wired for CarPlay compatibility between 2016 and 2024, and iOS devices need to be running iOS 10 or newer. BMW owners are out of luck, unfortunately, but iPhones from the original SE through the 15 Pro Max all work with this wireless CarPlay adapter.
(If your car doesn’t come with a built-in screen, you should consider buying an after-market CarPlay touchscreen.)
Save on Ottocast, a wireless CarPlay adapter
Update your car with a wireless CarPlay adapter that turns cable frustration into an afterthought. For a limited time, you can get the Ottocast U2-Air Wireless CarPlay Adapter 2022 Edition on sale for just $49.99 (regularly $89). Remember: This is a new, open-box deal, so supplies are limited.
