I wanted to pass this along. I am not affiliated in anyway, just bought it on Amazon for the reviews and it is working great. $89.00 to boot. It is supposed to work with Android as well, though I have not tried it.

Sound quality is great, everything works as it should.

My only complaint, the range is too far, depending how you look at it. Even when the vehicle is off my phone will switch over to it, cutting off my bluetooth beats head phones. Same when listening to music in the barn, sometimes it will switch over to the device in the car in the middle of playing music streaming to my AirPort express. Distance to avoid 20 +/- feet. It is plugged into the dash USB port, I plan on plugging it in the center counsel but need to get a USB 4-1. Flashlight is charged in there now.

I wish the center dash USB would only turn on when the truck is in ACC or running. I hate that it is powered all the time. That's a jeep issue though, not the device.

…need to get a USB 4-1.
If you mean a USB hub, it won’t work. It has to do with how CarPlay is implemented: it won’t work through a hub.
You can use one of the USB power-only Y cables.

How quick does it connect and display car play? I am thinking of switching to wireless since my charge ports gets so clogged up with junk from work, bumps will cause the cable to disconnect.

By the time you start to move after starting. Its pretty quick, key is no fuss though. Just connects and starts to play.
