I bought a USB-to-aux adapter because my current phone does not have a headphone jack and my vehicle doesn't have Bluetooth. I use it literally every day, sometimes for hours. It's utter nonsense that they are getting rid of them.
Your vehicle could have Bluetooth for about $20. Just sayin'.
Those radio tuner transmitters are fucking terrible.
I'm talking about Bluetooth receivers you can plug into your aux port.
I'm aware. I've been through half a dozen of them and don't want to buy another. An aux cord costs $5 and last practically forever unless you abuse them. My car has built-in Bluetooth, but it has a weird delay and randomly disconnects, mutes, or starts changing what I'm playing on my phone like a remote is pressing buttons.
