What does this do that connecting an Android phone by cable doesn’t?

I find it funny that the 2021 Edge has wireless android auto, but the Explorer doesn't.

Ford figures they will sell just as many without it, and even by removing features. Probably true.

You may be right, but Ford definitely knows how to differentiate the market and has a lot of data on customers and competitors. It probably comes down to marketing and age of drivers. An older, more well-heeled crowd that will buy the explorer is a different market from a younger group that would go for the Edge and is more interested in cross-shopping tech features.

Care to share a short video of the cool things that can be done? I see these posted occasionally and even searched them on Amazon but have not been able to see any real life use of them. Especially in the ST. Particularly curious how the wireless CarPlay works and then utilization of android apps.

These are a bit more pricier when compared to the regular wireless adapters so curious to see

This wireless carplay adapter on Amazon was $118. Works flawlessly. Tucks away in the under dash bin, and automatically connects to my iPhone wirelessly. Nice to not have cables hanging all over or having the panel open to set your phone in WIRELESS CARPLAY.jpg .

Does the SuperiorTek pass song titles correctly to the car (displayed on the dash and console)? How reliably does it connect?

It passes along anything that would be on CarPlay or Android aural. It just connects to your device wirelessly. Never had a connection problem

Automatically, not aural. Darned spell check
