Can I listen to the radio? Since this plugs into the aux port, am I able to use it if I'm listening to an actual radio station?

You do need to set your console to AUX but i have found that listing to the radio and switching when you receive a call works well.

I just checked and there is an aux button that allows you to listen to your iPod or iPhone when connected.

It plays your iPod through a radio, not a radio through your iPod. You can play whatever is on your ipod through any FM radio, it doesn't have to be a car radio.

Yeah you can play music using your cars speakers, that's how I use it because my car doesn't have the axu input. It brings a aux plug it's just that's it's short so you might want to buy a longer one but it's great it works fine I have bought 3 of these for different vehicles and it works great on all 3.

Yes you can plug it into the aux input on the back. Use the headphone jack on the mp3 player and plug into the aux input using a stereo mini jack cable.

I use the Aux In connection on my Wave Radio II and it works well in terms of playing from an older iphone. You will get an alert that the connection is not fully compatible but I ok out of that and move on.

I don't know what you mean by that. With the wire plugged in, you should still be able to listen to the radio and cd's. To listen to music from the wire you installed, press "Media." At least that's what it is in my car. It may be "Aux" in others.

Yes you can. It has an AM/FM Radio. I haven't listened to the radio, but if it works as well as the player, it should be fine for casual listening

Hi Sandra, If i understood correctly...you do not have in your radio a hole to stick in the auxiliary wire to listen to music. If that is the case i has same issue... This device plugs in to your car cigarette lighter outlet and that is it! You can listen to your iphone music! There is a auxiliary hole in the transmitter cup, and it comes with auxiliary cord to plug your phone into it. Since you and i had common problem, and this is the only device i found that doesnt break and has auxiliary outlet! I strongly recommend getting it. I had mine for almost 4 months and this is the best thing ever!

Hi C.L.Let me ask you: how do you intend to play music while it's charging? Without an AUX port there is no way to physically connect the phone to the cars speakers. You can certainly use Bluetooth while charging, or play music via the phone speakers, but the audio input pictured here is for connecting via Aux port.This 2-in-1 charger does not have an AM/FM transmitter which would allow you to play music over a radio frequency on your radio, and this is what you may need if you have no physical connection port or Bluetooth connectivity.

Every mp3 player works in the car. Where is the point of the question? If you have a radio with the Cassette, simply buy a cassette adapter, and with 5 dollars you can listen your mp3 player in through yor autoradio. If you have an AUX port in your radio, buy a cord with two males connectors ( probably 3 dollars and radioshack ) and voila' ... you can listen your music in your car. Isn't that simple?

You can use audio cables to hook into the aux input. Or with lightning cable into USB port that is built in. It will charge the phone and do audio through USB. Display shows current song and you can select songs from unit. Buttons are small though

mine is plugged into my car so I believe you would need a docking station to listen to it so I don't think you can carry around with you.

Yes Algee you can still listen to am-fm radio stations. When you are not using the I Simple aux input, just turn the power switch to off, and you can still listen to your favorite am - fm stations. I have this IS31 in my own car, and run my satellite radio, and also my smart phone through it, with Great results. Happy Listening.

I never tried to do that. It charges from a USB port, which means I am near my computer and other sound sources. I was not impressed with the radio overall.

No, this unit has an AUX Out port,and uses a 3.5mm male-to-male cable that has to plug in (somehow) to your radio. If you have no AUX In port in your vehicle, it's not going to work.

If you plug in the 'dongle' thing to the side, you should be able to turn on the FM mod and use it in the car.It uses that as an 'antenna' to broadcast to your FM radio.
