Yeah. That’s what I’m doing now. It defeats the overall sentiment though, since the point of the wireless charging box is to keep your battery charged while it drains from being used for a CarPlay, and to boost your cellular signal through the antenna. I’ll just have to charge my phone by connecting to the USB ports and continue to use wireless CarPlay since there’s literally no alternative. Although, I’ve had good experiences with BMW Navigation - so I could just use that and play Bluetooth music. I’d give OP my wireless charging if he wanted it. Lol.
