Bluetooth AUX transmitter or receiver: what is the difference?

Choosing an accessory for your car is easier when you know which features really matter. This practical guide helps you weigh up the options and avoid common mistakes.

Three things to consider

• A receiver receives wireless audio for an AUX system, for example.
• A transmitter sends audio to a compatible Bluetooth device.
• Check the mode you need for your equipment.

What is right for your situation?

The right choice depends on the car model, your devices and how you use the accessory. Therefore, check the dimensions, connection and product specifications. Also take the time to choose a safe place in the car: accessories must not obstruct your view, the controls or safety features.

In more detail: what does this mean in practice?

An FM transmitter can play music from a smartphone via the FM radio. Choose an available frequency on both the transmitter and the car radio.

Common mistake

If there is static, trying a different frequency may help; quality still depends on reception. Therefore, compare the product specifications with your car and follow the manufacturer's instructions.
