I purchased the Ottocast OttoAibox P3 CarPlay AI Box For North America / PICASOU 2 PRO AI BOX for $319.99. I am assumong this is the P3 AI Hardware but in the PICASOU 2 Pro casing? Is this correct? Also will this have HDMI IN and HDMI OUT?
Not necessarily with your phone, you need to connect it with internet. You can either insert a SIM card in this device or connect it with your mobile's hotpsot connection to access internet and enjoy the apps

I have OTTOAiBox P3, I would like to cast from it using a hdmi cable to a screen to the back of the car, can you recommend a screen for the back of the car that I could buy?
DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM I bought this item as it's described as compatible with any car that has Wired CarPlay. My car has wired CarPlay and this unit simply does not work. I've discussed with Ottocast at length and they are refusing to refund the item and they want to charge me a restocking fee and shipping charges to return the item, which I bought in entirely good faith in compliance with their advertised description.
All these CarPlay adapters work in most cars that support wired CarPlay except a few car brands. Its mentioned in the description of the video. It is also mentioned on the Ottocast website. Did you try it with dual power supply? In some cars, the power from one usb plug is not enough so you need to use the power extender cable that comes in the box. I don’t work for this brand , but you can drop me a WhatsApp message and I will try to help you
I've just seen the video... very good review but i was hoping to find information about compatibility... i have a bmw 440i from 2016, it has carplay from factory but only for Apple devices and is not touch screen... so i don't know if this item will work for me... is there any chance you'd know for sure?
@@sgthoskins I received mine today, its a piece of junk, does not start all, the carlink 8G+128G was working fine, but I wanted to try this product so I returned that and Purchased this garbage P3 Box and this does not work at all, I got a lemon, I will try to contact the support and see if they can figure it out, but my screen is stuck on the Ottocast welcome boot up logo after that it shuts off
I have the Play2Video pro and I have a similar issue. When you’re on YT with your hotspot connected and decide to switch over to CP or AA the hotspot will disconnect and switch over to Bluetooth for CP or AA. If you want to go back and use YT you’ll have to manually reconnect to the hotspot. You have to this every time you switch between both screens.
Would you prefer the Ottocast p3 auto ai box or the Picasou 2 PRO CarPlay AI box? I just purchased the picasou 2 PRO and then came across this model shown in this video. Which is the better/higher end/top of the line product?
I Know I may be asking alot Sachaz, but you're the ONLY English speaking TH-camr I've found with this Specific device, Can you PLEASE give your insight on something I've been wondering? I would like to use this for Xbox Game pass (Gaming over Xbox cloud) All I need is a Solid internet connection, Hardware doesn't matter much, do you think this Device with a 5G Sim would be as solid as my Samsung Galaxy S23 5G Connection to play games over the cloud? ANY insight you can provide would be awesome.
nope their product suck, i tried to get the refund rn. they told me to connect to bluetooth on the setting before connect to apple carplay but it is not working@@adriofsparta
Hi everyone. Maybe im old school, if im driving a car not sure i want all these distractions. Why would you watch Netflix when your driving. Thoughts anyone.😮
Im using Elitecar box and the download speeds are atrocious using hotspot when my laptop downloads way faster. Whats the download speeds on this? Can it stream 720p or 1080p using 4g without stuttering?
This devices gets good speed on both the mobile hotspot or the SIM card. You can stream high quality videos. I even watched Live TV channels via the IPTV app on this device
This adapter works in cars that support wired CarPlay. Connect your iPhone with a cable wire to the USB of your car to check if it supports wired CarPlay
Does anyone know why when connecting the Ottocast the interface loads but the touch screen stops working and I cannot use any function of the Ottocast? my vehicle has wired carplay
This seems like a good solution for me. My new truck has built in wired/wireless CarPlay and Android Auto. I want to use the trucks ability to use CarPlay with my phone, not the Ottocast P3. However I don’t use Android Phones, can I just use the P3 to access it’s Android Auto without an Android Phone by BT connecting to my iPhone? My interest is to be able to use the P3 for streaming apps only.
This is a powerful device with loads of streaming apps plus you can install more from the app store. To use Android Auto, you need an Android mobile to connect via BT
Can you please help me.. I order a carlink pro , and I have a Sony XAV 9500 ES radio, the unit as a cable ( is a C connector but is only a power supplier that means only work to charge or supply power So didn’t work on my Sony because need to be wireless Is that Ottocast is wireless ? I was told by the radio installer that I will need a wireless unit Is that wirele? I mean if I power it will my radio will connect to it
I have a 2016 mazda cx-5 that been updated at the dealership for android auto to work (they changed the usb-A connector and updated the system) 1) will it work with my car ? 2) will the rotary command work with it ? (There is no touch screen while driving)
If the new system supports wired carplay, then this adapter will work. Yes, you can use the knob controls to manage this device, but I would suggest getting a BT air mouse remote, that would make it much easier for you to use this device - amzn.to/49sE1Jt
So.. Looks exactly what I am looking for, But when you have this.... Then what will you use Android Auto / Carplay for? I would never use the apps on AA or CP anymore
What kind of mobile hotspot are you using, a vehicle built in mobile hot spot or a portable hot spot that you would get from a cell phone carrier or are you using your cell phone for a hot spot?
do I have a question?Every time I enter the car, the device does not turn on, I plug it out, I plug it out, it freezes when switching from car play to android from android to car play, so it doesn't work stably, I wonder what is it about? my car is ww caddy 2023
Does it work with slightly older vehicles? I have a 2018 Q7 where the screen is not a touch screen? I have a Samsung S23, starting from October or November 2023, Android Auto quit working on my vehicle, but Car Play still works. I changed to a new cable, still not working. While troubleshooting for the Android Auto issue, I bumped into Ottocast. I would like to be sure before I invest in this device with the hope that Ottocast is a solution to the Android Auto nonfunction problem. Thanks!
Does the Ottocast box support usb devices (maybe through usb c splitter)? As my car does not have touch screen I could implement an usb touch monitor that overlays the car monitor. At last, is there a way to connect an external camera that I could be using it as a parking camera? Thanks
In a way, this adapter converts the car screen to a tablet, so you get apps on your car screen. You can either insert a SIM card in this adapter or connect this adapter to your mobile hotspot if you want to use apps like TH-cam, Netflix, Live TV, Spotify, etc on the screen
I should be getting one in states in day or 2 . What’s IP tv? I downloaded it on App Store and no channels downloaded. Which one are you using? The lite version? Can you get sports on there?
The IPTV is a paid service. You can download the app for free from IPTV Smarters Pro website but then you need to buy a Live TV package to run on the app
having issues with my p3 and they have been trying to get me to update firmware with microsd... ... attempted so many times... no luck... can't get direct answers to my questions or a video of an update working correctly... now i'm being asked to ship it back undeclared and undervalued/underinsured to receive a upgraded model in return.. grrr
I had to do a full return for another device shipping to CN. Honestly it's a hassle if you ask me. They will reimburse me for the shipping cost but just the whole process and having to do exactly what you did made me feel uncomfortable. These companies should really have a US agent address so that returns or issues could be a better experience. That being said honestly I would rather just pay more and get it on Amazon so that if there are any issues it could be returned easier.
@@volcalstonejust call your bank and report it and get your money back. When I told them that I wanted to return mine, they said I would pay $35 restock fee. I just called my bank. The company is a scam
You need to go to IPTV Smarters Pro website and install the app, then you have to buy the package online. Whatsapp me if you need help: wa.me/971566822520
I just got mine today. It does not show me the ottocast UI. Infact, it doesnt show me anything. I am currently using another ottocast box, the a2airpro, and it works fine if i reconnect it. I have 2022 toyota 4runner.
Yes, they play in full screen, except if you have a panel on the sides from your original car system. Like in my car on the left, I have a fixed panel with Time, date, AC controls that cannot be removed
Hey Thanks for review! Have you tried to insert SD card with any video files? I already tried but the device didn't see nothing on a card((( maybe you know what happens?
Thats strange, I did test video files on SD card and it worked fine. Try installing a different file explorer app, or maybe the video file type is not recognised. Did you insert the sd card the right way?
@MinistryReviewsSchaz yeah of course, inserted right! Device recognize the card but didn't see any files on it 🤔 I tried different types of files... also a couple of sd cards
Watch my video. You need to click on that mini menu circle and select the split screen option, then click on the app logo on top and select split screen
To me this device lacks a lot of features compared to Carlinkit Tbox Ambient or MMB max 5.0. No sim card calling/messages. Wifi/hotspot can't be turned at the same time, No developer option so unable to change smallest dpi for landscape apps and a few other bit. Difficult to justify the high price compared to Tbox and other 6225 variants as they can do a lot and way cheaper than this. I also found no stability issues with Carlinkit devices so the cost/benefit ratio is hard to justify. Nevertheless thanks for the good review! @Schaz. Not sayings this isn’t a great device but compared to Carlinkit Tbox ambient, and higher costs, it’s not as great. New carlinkit june update can now let you select any ratio for split more than P3, you drag the portion to anywhere on screen and you can have your own customise ratio . Also on Tbox ambient, under factory setting with a code 121212 u can choose your applications for split and it creates a shortcut on home screen so with one click you can have the apps running.
Is there any audio lag? That has been my issue with other devices I have tried out (and returned them all). Is it the devices or my vehicle? I have a 2023 GMC Sierra.
You can install apps on the native Android system on this Otoo P3 device, but on the CarPlay and Android Auto platforms, you will have to install the app on your mobile to have it appear on CP or AA
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz Ok, problem is there is a google play app Roon ARC that i have been using with wired android auto. Not sure if that works with wireless ottobox. Havent seen anyone tested it. Its music streaming over your local server. Works well over wired android auto.
Great review, thank you! I must be the only one using CarPlay device with a screen that is not touchscreen :( With every video I’ve watched, it feels so much easier to navigate the settings and various apps on a CP device using touchscreen.
You are right. Touchscreen is ideal for this, but you can use an air bluetooth gyro remote control in non-touchscreen cars. You should look into it: amzn.to/3R3pugg
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz Awesome! I will look that up. So I’m guessing the remote control will work on any CarPlay device besides just the P3? I’ve got the P3
hi there I am thinking of purchasing it since I see how it works very smoothly. One question: Will it be possible to connect it to a laptop or TV? greetings
For anyone interested in this device. I highly recommend it. I've had 3 different aibox's and this one is super smooth. Plus all the little issues I've had with the others I dont here.
So I got mine and everything is working but the audio it’s putting out is super low. I have it blasting and it sounds like I have it set to low volume . Can’t seem to figure it out. Any ideas?
So the audio works fine. If anyone encounters the same issue make sure your cars regular Bluetooth audio is putting out audio as opposed to Ottocast and everything else with the display should work just fine while also in sync.
So actually the complete fix was just to ask Google to play at max volume, I couldn’t find audio settings initially but that fixed everything without any in betweens
Try to connect the additional cable to another power source, sometimes one usb connection does not give enough power to the device, thats why they have given an extra cable in the box

Yes, if this car has wired CarPlay function. Drop me a whatsapp message if you have more questions: wa.me/971566822520
I am confuse. I can do all these with my phone. Why I need this box?
With this device, you can get all those apps on the car screen
How can I see my phonedisplay on the carscreen (screenmirror)
You can use any casting or mirroring app like AirScreen, Carbitlink etc
Can you download the youtube video in this box so you can play the offline videos?
Yes, you can do it on most of these boxes
Can different screens watch different thi gs at same time?
All other models have a significant sound delay. What’s the sound delay on this unit ?
I checked, there was no delay... totally in sync
Is there any audio lag? That has been my issue with other devices I have tried out (and returned them all). Is it the devices or my vehicle? I have a 2023 GMC Sierra.
I did not notice any audio lag. This will work in cars with carplay enabled system
He literally reviews it for audio lag in this video and shows that it does not have any lag.
Is there an internet browser on this, can I download apk links?
Yes, there is one and you can download apk files as well
I didnt see option to install new apps from google play with android auto using this otto box?
You can install apps on the native Android system on this Otoo P3 device, but on the CarPlay and Android Auto platforms, you will have to install the app on your mobile to have it appear on CP or AA
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz Ok, problem is there is a google play app Roon ARC that i have been using with wired android auto. Not sure if that works with wireless ottobox. Havent seen anyone tested it. Its music streaming over your local server. Works well over wired android auto.
Is there any way to disable that small white circular button that pops up every time you interact with the screen?
Not sure, let me check
yes there is its in the settings. You can also remove that side bar too. I disabled the side menu buttons and use the floating dot instead
Can you drive while watching youtube videos
Yes you can
is there built in GPS if I was to use google maps?
Yes, it is ( i just got the product)
I bought two of this device and have an audio lag on several video applications. I use Hotspot on my phone to connect. I don't know how to fix.
Contact the Ottocast customer support, they will help you to fix it
I have the same issue in my Honda...did you ever figure it out?
@@nicknyce718 they had an update that improved the lag. Still has a minor lag but now it's about 90% there. Definetly better.
Do you know if this device is compatible with a 2024 Toyota Rav4 hybrid?
Yes, if your car has the wired carplay function. I had a Toyota Land Cruiser 2022 and it worked in it
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz thank you
Great review, thank you! I must be the only one using CarPlay device with a screen that is not touchscreen :( With every video I’ve watched, it feels so much easier to navigate the settings and various apps on a CP device using touchscreen.
You are right. Touchscreen is ideal for this, but you can use an air bluetooth gyro remote control in non-touchscreen cars. You should look into it: amzn.to/3R3pugg
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz Awesome! I will look that up. So I’m guessing the remote control will work on any CarPlay device besides just the P3? I’ve got the P3
Yes. In fact it would work with any device with USB or BT connectivity
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz Great! Thanks 👍
I’m looking to also get the MMB Max AI Box 3.0 Carplay Adapter. Which do u recommend?
MMB Max 3.0 is a great device, one of my favorite brand
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz I end up buying the mmb max 3.0 as I liked the interface.
Will this work on my motorcycle screen?
Yes, if the motorcycle screen supports wired carplay
Is there any reason to still use CarPlay ios or android auto vs the standard ottobox user interface?
I dont see any reason why... the Ottocast interface has all the apps and functions that you may need
Why does ottocast not use android 13?
I am sure they will soon launch an upgraded Android 13 model. But hoenstly, there isnt much difference between 12 and 13 in terms of performance
Is it work on chery tiggo 8 pro?
This adapter works in cars that support wired carplay
Can you use that on a android tablet?
Yes, but if the tablet can take the HDMI in connection
hi there I am thinking of purchasing it since I see how it works very smoothly. One question: Will it be possible to connect it to a laptop or TV? greetings
Good decision. Yes you can connect it to any screen that takes HDMI in.
Great, thank you very much for the response. I will order it through Aliexpress since from there it will be easier for it to arrive in Chile.
When you connect to a TV say, how do you control the interface in that case?
Does it come with a mobile app which can act as a remote control?
Is this supported with 3g speed?
It supports 2G 3G 4G networks
How to do the setting for livetv? Thanks!
You have to download the app from IPTV Smarters Pro website and then input details of your IPTV package
Thanks
Between this one and the new Mmb max 3.0 which one is your favorite ? Given price
I would go for Ottocast P3
Is this available for the uk
@@geoffboardman9719 Yes, you can order from their Official Store 👉 www.ottocast.com/?ref=SCHAZ $40 OFF with code OTOCAR40
does it support 5G or 4G?
4G
For anyone interested in this device. I highly recommend it. I've had 3 different aibox's and this one is super smooth. Plus all the little issues I've had with the others I dont here.
any comparing with carlinkit android 13?
This Ottocast P3 is far better
@@MinistryReviewsSchazyou won ..I placed an order 😁
Yes this looks good does it play media files like from the usb drive or is this sd card?
@@xrmte SD card
Do I need touchscreen for this device to work properly? Because I don´t have a touchscreen.
No problem, if you dont have touchscreen then you can connect an air mouse keypad remote like: amzn.to/3RyQMwb
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz thank you for the answer.
volume very low when connected . any fixes
@@luvnphishn2 Go to the settings and look for Media Volume option and increase it to max
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz don’t see any settings for media volume. in the ottocast settings?
So I got mine and everything is working but the audio it’s putting out is super low. I have it blasting and it sounds like I have it set to low volume . Can’t seem to figure it out. Any ideas?
So the audio works fine.
If anyone encounters the same issue make sure your cars regular Bluetooth audio is putting out audio as opposed to Ottocast and everything else with the display should work just fine while also in sync.
So actually the complete fix was just to ask Google to play at max volume, I couldn’t find audio settings initially but that fixed everything without any in betweens
Is it compatible with bmw?
No, not this model. You can get the iHeylinkit device for BMW: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DeolOmN
@@MinistryReviewsSchaz thank you
Im having to reboot it every time i use it any suggestion
Try to connect the additional cable to another power source, sometimes one usb connection does not give enough power to the device, thats why they have given an extra cable in the box
If I unplug it it works fine
Thanks I'll try that
@MinistryReviewsSchaz you have to go in engineering mode and delay the start time and that solves the problem
does it support 60 fps?
Yes, It support 60 FPS video.
@@MinistryReviewsSchazso using a fps Meter it displays 60 fps? :)
