    Not OP, but I’m using a Pixel 7 Pro with this phone charger in my car. My wife doesn’t have wireless charging through her phone, so she just added a magnetic ring to hold the phone and charge it over USB-C. The magnetic field is quite strong, I don’t have the feeling it will fall by accident.

    I bought a case with the MagSafe ring builtin because I didn’t want to mess with the ring positioning.

      If I could get Android Auto (out whatever it’s called) to attach to my head unit wirelessly, I’d get one of these in a second. But I still need to plug my phone in for directions.

        I can recommend the AAWireless dongle. It works great in My 16 Ford, and they’re doing regular updates on the firmware to add things like carplay

          I’ve been avoiding it, because my spouse uses an iPhone, and I don’t want to complicate her experience by making her unplug the wireless dongle.

          It looks snazzy though.
