Lacey - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
It constantly disconnects for no reason. I use it in my car with my iphone 15 pro. Sometimes it reconnects itself, other times I have to unplug the cord and plug it back in. Either way, I have to wait for Carplay to reboot. I thought maybe I had a defective one, so I exchanged it, but the new one does the same thing. It’s super frustrating.
