Not compatible (yet) with Alexa+ beta, but otherwise a very nice little device.
I left a negative review earlier because nothing I needed this device to do worked at all. Yes, it was good at being a “dumb” Bluetooth receiver if your car doesn’t have Bluetooth. (It plays through your car speakers whatever you play on your phone.) And it could control my Alexa devices even away from home. But it couldn’t call anyone by voice command, send texts, or initiate navigation.All of this was started working when I left the Alexa+ beta, so I upped my rating.This is one of Amazon’s more obscure devices, so I hope they eventually support Alexa+, but it works great with normal Alexa.Fyi, here’s my setup: My car (2012 Fiat 500) doesn’t have Bluetooth, but like a lot of cars it has an AUX 3.5mm stereo input that I can choose on the car’s stereo, and a USB-A port side by side in my glove box. So I plug this device’s stereo jack in, and plug this device’s USB jack in (which is only used for power), and now my car has both bluetooth and Alexa. It replaced a the “dumb” Bluetooth receiver that I was using before.

My ECHO AUTO Works Perfectly and I LOVE IT
I was worried how well the Echo Auto would work since a lot of reviewers make it seem like a total POS.So when it went on sale recently for $20 I pulled the trigger and bought one on 8.17.25 – wouldn’t have taken a chance for $55 based on the bad reviews.For those whose Echo Auto doesn’t work consistently or properly I feel bad for you because mine does exactly what it says it does and it works perfectly every time and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT!!!The setup was super easy for me in my 2014 Camry SE that I got it to connect to my cars Bluetooth on the first try and I was good to go and I haven’t had to reconnect it since. And I have zero problems whenever I get into my car because my Echo Auto always connects within 30-40 seconds every single time.The Echo Auto makes it so easy and convenient to access all my music whether it’s from Amazon Music Unlimited, Spotify, IHeartRadio, etc. with just voice commands exactly like how I do when I’m at home through my three Echo devices.And I’m pleasantly surprised that the music sounds AMAZING even though it’s connected through Bluetooth – maybe because I have Amazon Music Unlimited with HD/UHD and spatial audio? I tried connecting through the AUX cable and the music sounded horrible – no bass, very tinny and some crackling. I thought it would sound better since it’s a wired connection. But hey, less wires in my car.I absolutely love the ease and convenience of the Echo Auto because my car came with a USB port that I use with a 64GB flash drive that has over 10,000 songs or roughly 1,000 albums on it so you can imagine how long it would take to scroll through my music list to find what I wanted to listen to. Now I can just use my voice and listen to whatever I want in seconds.For me, the Echo Auto is absolutely magical and worth every penny.UPDATE 8.31.25 – 👀 Check Out My New Video 👀I tried to upload another video but you can only upload one video per review. So I just combined the two videos showing how easy it is to use and how to switch between inputs (starts at 2:05) on your car stereo so you can switch between Bluetooth (Echo Auto) a USB Stick or the radio.UPDATE 10.25.25I’ve had my Echo Auto now for over 2 months and I’ve NEVER had to reconnect it. And I have NEVER lost connection while using it whether I’m listening to music or making phone calls. Awesome way to spend $20!

Works very good when stays connected
My 2012 Honda Pilot’s car microphone started being muffled according to people I spoke to on the phone. I wanted to replace the mic, and it was $900. I decided to try this as an inexpensive solution and it has worked great. The only issues are:1 – although not too often, it disconnects from the phone’s bluetooth. Not sure what the problem is. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and the latest iOS.2 – when going from my driveway to the road, it will say ‘cannot connect to network’ for the first few hundred yards when trying to ask it something like play a playlist unless I start it from the driveway while on wi-fi.These 2 problems should not sway you from getting it IMO. They are both very minor but the reason I only gave it 4 stars.

Nice addition to mobile scheduling and music playing
When you haven’t had enough if alexa not listening to you and screwing everything up at home, you can now take Amazon’s annoying AI with you on the road too! Bought to keep my reminders and calender up to date even on the move. Alexa rarely pays music you ask it too even if you have unlimited plan, so scheduling and reminders is it’s best attribute. She still screws up every song you ask her to play or give you the price of eggs when you ask for the weather, but the things alexa does do well, she does them on the go now too. Set up is easy and has the option of aux or Bluetooth input to the car. The speaker is nice but they messed up and put an extra speaker in the contol box that is too close to the power cord adapter that’s usually tucked away so you can’t always hear alerts or feedback. Stylish design and easy to use but not entirely thought through and limited by alexa primitive functions still. The main speaker is very nice and looks terrific with nice mounting hardware. Overall 4 stars for ease of use and when it works good it works absolutely brilliant and seamless integration into my home network.

Alexa on the road—super convenient!
This little device has completely upgraded my driving experience! The Echo Auto is easy to set up and fits perfectly in my car. The five built-in microphones work great—even with music playing or the A/C on, Alexa hears me clearly every time.I love being able to play my favorite playlists from Amazon Music or Spotify hands-free, and it’s so useful for making calls or sending voice messages while I drive. I’ve even listened to podcasts and Audible books on long trips—so convenient!The included car charger is a nice bonus, and it charges my phone super fast. If you want Alexa with you on the go, this is the perfect gadget. Highly recommend it!
