Everything you need to know about the devices, installation and ordering.
Fit with your car and phone
How do I know if the device works with my car?
Our devices need a car with CarPlay or Android Auto, or a Chinese system.
The easiest way to check: connect your phone to the car with a cable. If the CarPlay or Android Auto screen appears (with maps and calls), your car supports it.
So we can choose exactly the right device, message us with your car's make, model and year, and where it was imported from if you know (American, Gulf, Chinese).
Message us on WhatsAppIf your car has none of these, unfortunately no device will fit it.

What's the point of the device if my car already has CarPlay?
CarPlay only lets you use a very limited set of apps, like maps (Waze and Google Maps), calls, messages and music. It has no YouTube, video apps or TV channels.
The device adds a full Android system to your car screen: you can watch YouTube and Arabic and sports channels, and run two apps at once on the same screen, like Waze on one side and YouTube on the other.
If you need these things, the device will make a big difference. If you don't need to watch video, honestly you don't need the device: stay with CarPlay.

What's the difference between an adapter and an Android device?
Adapter
A small piece that makes CarPlay or Android Auto work without a cable, or adds Android Auto to a car that only has CarPlay, like the Chinese Corolla imported from the Gulf.
AI Box device
A full Android system that runs on your car's original screen. You can watch YouTube and channels and install apps on it, without changing the screen, as long as the screen supports Apple CarPlay.

I bought a device elsewhere and it didn't work on my car. Will yours work?
Our device works in its own way. When your order arrives, you can test it in front of the delivery driver and see for yourself that it works on your car.
Just message us first with your car's make, model and year, so we can choose the right device.

My car has rear screens. Can I run the device on them?
Yes, there's a device that runs on 3 screens at once: the front screen and the rear screens, in cars like the Tahoe Premier, Yukon Denali, Cadillac Escalade, Grand Cherokee Limited Plus and Durango.
The rear screens show the same content as the front screen. You can only control it from the front screen, or by buying an extra remote.
The same device can display on the front screen, or connect to the rear screens with an HDMI cable.
Note: devices that only run the front screen can't display on the rear screens.
#kasko_group
My car's screen isn't original. It was replaced with an Android screen. Will the device work on it?
If your screen was replaced with an Android screen, it already runs Android, so there's no need to add another Android device. You can install the apps you need on the screen itself.
If it supports CarPlay but has low specs, you can buy one of our devices and use the screen as a display only.
If it doesn't support CarPlay or Android Auto and you need one of them, you can buy the device CCPA.
#kasko_group
I have an iPhone. Will the device work with it?
Of course. The device doesn't depend on your phone, because it's a standalone device with its own system, programs and apps.
So whether you have an iPhone or an Android phone, the device works as normal.
And if you want to share internet to it by hotspot, or mirror your phone's screen to the car screen, you can do that from an iPhone or an Android phone.
#kasko_group
Installation and use
How do I connect the device to the car?
Connecting it is very easy. As soon as you plug the device into a USB port that supports data, it turns on automatically.
Wait about 15 seconds, and you'll see the CarPlay or Android Auto icon light up on the screen, which means the device is connected. If your car has more than one USB port, use the port that CarPlay runs on.
If your car only supports wireless CarPlay, like BMW, Deepal and Rox cars, these cars have their own devices. You plug the device into any USB port with power and connect over Bluetooth, such as the ULTRA 3 from Carlinkit or the i3 from Ottocast.
#kasko_group
How long does it take to start?
When you start the car, the device takes about 15 to 20 seconds to start.
#kasko_group
How do I control the device?
You control it from your car's touch screen, like a phone. In some apps, like the music player, you can also use the steering wheel buttons.
If your car's screen isn't a touch screen, you control it with the car's control wheel, as in Mercedes cars.
#kasko_group
Does the sound come from the car's speakers?
Yes, the sound comes from the car's own speakers, whether you're watching YouTube, listening to music or using maps.
#kasko_group
Can I use my CarPlay while the device is connected?
While the device is connected you can't use regular CarPlay, because the screen accepts only one CarPlay device. To go back to your CarPlay, unplug the device and connect your phone as usual.
And on the device itself, you can mirror your phone's screen to the car screen if you need something from your phone.
#kasko_group
Internet and apps
Does the device have internet?
The device needs internet to run apps like YouTube and TV channels, and you have two ways:
- Put a SIM card inside the device, so it has its own internet.
- Or turn on your phone's personal hotspot and connect the device to it, with an iPhone or an Android phone.
Then you use the device normally, like any phone.
#kasko_group
Which SIM cards work on the device?
Any SIM card works.
Except Fastlink SIM cards in the northern governorates.
So you can use an Asiacell or Zain SIM card as normal.
#kasko_group
Can I install apps on the device?
Yes. The device runs Android, like any other phone. You can install the apps you like from the Google Play store and use them as normal.
#kasko_group
Does the device get updates?
Yes, the device gets updates with bug fixes and improvements, so it keeps running well.
#kasko_group
Specs and performance
What system does the device run?
It runs Android: Android 12, 13 or 15, depending on the device.
#kasko_group
Which suits my car better: 64GB storage with 4GB RAM, or 128GB storage with 8GB RAM?
It depends on your car's screen size.
If your screen is small, under 8 inches, the 64GB with 4GB RAM is enough.
If your screen is 8 inches or larger, it's better to get the 128GB with 8GB RAM.
More storage comes with more RAM and a newer processor, which means smoother use, especially on a large screen.
If that doesn't matter to you, you can use the 64GB even on a large screen. It works fine, just not as smoothly as the 128GB.
#kasko_group
What is the device's storage for?
It's just like a phone's storage. You can install the apps you like, save photos, videos and more, or move files from your phone to the device to show them on the car screen.
#kasko_group
How big is the device?
It's small, about 4 fingers wide, so it takes up no space in the car and stays out of sight.
#kasko_group
Does the device get hot?
Like any electronic device, it can get warm or a little hot while running, and that doesn't affect how it works at all. In 5 years of experience, we haven't recorded any problem caused by Iraq's summer heat.
Still, it's best to keep it out of direct sunlight.
#kasko_group
Does the device affect the car's battery or screen?
No, the device doesn't affect the car's battery or the screen. If you ever remove it, the screen goes back to exactly how it was.
#kasko_group
Adapters
My car only has CarPlay, and my phone is Android. What can I do?
There's an adapter, KaskoAIR that adds Android Auto to your car by turning CarPlay into Android Auto.
This adapter works on cars with wired CarPlay.
#kasko_group
My car is Chinese. It has no CarPlay, only CarLife or Carbit Link. Is there a solution?
Yes, we have adapters that turn Baidu CarLife or Carbit Link into CarPlay or Android Auto, with a wireless connection.
For these cars we only have adapters. The AI Box device doesn't run on them.
#kasko_group
Does the wireless adapter delay or cut the sound?
Normally there's a small delay, a fraction of a second. That's normal with a wireless connection.
#kasko_group
Authenticity and prices
Are the devices original?
All our devices are original. The only brands we work with are Ottocast and Carlinkit, and our own brand, KASKO.
#kasko_group
Why isn't the device cheap? It only runs YouTube.
There are cheaper devices on the market, but with lower specs and lower performance: Android 9, which can't run all modern apps; no GPS, so you can't open maps; and they overheat, which means less smoothness and stuttering.
This device doesn't only run YouTube. It works just like a phone. Inside are a Snapdragon processor, storage and RAM. It supports 4G and Wi-Fi, and it runs Android, so you can install any app on it.
So you're getting a complete device with real specs, not a simple part. It also comes with a 12-month software warranty and gets updates.
#kasko_group
I found a cheaper device. What's the difference?
Before you decide, check the specs. A cheap device may have far less storage and RAM, like 16GB with 2GB RAM, which causes heavy lag. It may also run Android 9, an old system that can't install apps.
Our device has a Snapdragon processor, Android 13 or 15, and 64GB or 128GB of storage. It's an investment: instead of replacing your screen, it stays with you even if you change your car. And you can test it in front of the delivery driver and see the difference yourself.
#kasko_group
Why buy the device instead of replacing the car's screen?
The device is designed so your screen stays original, with no changes. If you ever remove it, the screen goes back to how it was. And the device stays with you: if you sell or change your car, just take it and plug it into your new car, if that car has CarPlay.
