    CarPlay BMW E-46 Aftermarket Apple CarPlay Install?

    CarPlay CarPlay app for Car Health???

    Maybe this has never been thought of. But if we have CarPlay, why isn’t there some sort of connection with the car that would automatically give you info on your vehicle? No need to ever buy those OBD devices as the app would be able to relay things to your phone using an interface app. Am I...

    CarPlay CarPlay problems

    First off I have a iPhone 8 Plus. CarPlay is in a 2017 Ford Explorer. I updated to the newest IOS 11.3 the other day. Since then, every time I use CarPlay in my Ford, the audio starts fine for about a minute, then it hiccups, then the sound goes all static sounding. If I pause it or unplug...

    CarPlay CarPlay Maps Giving Different Results From Iphone Maps

    I realize this is a strange question given that the Iphone is what powers CarPlay, but does anyone else experience different results when using maps in CarPlay versus maps on the Iphone. My CarPlay Maps (via Siri) gives me very different results than my Iphone (via Siri) Maps and it's...

    CarPlay Wireless CarPlay "Hey Siri" bug or feature?

    I believe CarPlay uses one's iPhone's mic for a "Hey Siri" wake, not the radio's mic. It's certainly that way with my wireless CarPlay Alpine iLX-107. It may also be the same for a wired CarPlay unit where the phone is stored in the glovebox or closed console. As part of the process of...

    CarPlay CarPlay - view while driving, not navigating

    Hello Community! I've been looking for it everywhere and I didn't find a comprehensive look at the Apple Maps UI in CarPlay while just driving. Currently, I have the OEM sat nav, which has this "standby" 3D view, which I like, because I can check surroundings, streets, or simply I just know...

    CarPlay Risks in using carplay on a test drive?

    hi guys. Are there risks to connecting to carplay while test driving cars? I am shopping for a car and plan to try a few carplay equipped cars. Does the car retain some personal information from my phone? Also, is it as easy as just plugging the phone in or is there some pairing process like...

    iOS 11 and CarPlay issues?

    I am curious to know if anyone else is having CarPlay issues as it relates to playing music. Before ios11, everything was working fine. With ios11, though, my music isn’t playing under “Browse” or “Radio.” I unpaired it and paired it again with no luck. I am wondering if others are experiencing...

    CarPlay CarPlay and Maps issue

    Hi all, i just changed my car to an Audi Q2. CarPlay is working almost perfectly with my iPhone 7 (ios11.0.3) apart from one niggly issue with Maps. When i connect to CarPlay and open the Maps app I'm immediately shown a route to the same place no matter where I am in the country? This location...

    Non-media Carplay apps?

    I see there are lots of audio media apps one can use in Carplay. But are there any nav maps? I realize there's Apple's product, and stuff within it like finding gas, etc, but wondering about others that might have other maps, like dedicated GPS or GaiaGPS. Any timing apps, like lap timing...

    iOS11 fixed my CarPlay finally!

    I have a 2017 Honda Civic and carplay has been almost unusable since I bought it which was very disappointing to me. It was bad enough that it could actually crash the cars whole system on a regular basis.... now with iOS11 it works PERFECT

    iOS 11 broke Carplay - 2017 VW Golf

    Finally bit the bullet and decided to upgrade to iOS 11 beta 8 from 10.3.3. Now Carplay and Bluetooth is completely broken in my 2017 VW Golf. Tried a factory reset on the VW head unit and that didn't work. I didn't try resetting network settings on the phone. Anyone else's Carplay broken in...

    Ford Focus (2012) is CarPlay supported on my car?

    I love my iDevices but to be honest I don't use Siri on those devices but I would definitely would like to start using it while driving my Ford Focus car for e.g. music, podcasts, navigation and phonecall/receive which I'm getting soon and which probably has CarPlay support as well. I did read...

    Why CarPlay?

    I recently put down a deposit for an install of a Kenwood DNX994s Unit with CarPlay in my 2017 Honda Fit LX. Some have told me that it's a waste of money and they just put the phone in a clip in the air vent and perform the same actions. Yet, most car manufacturers are adding CarPlay or Android...

I have a 2017 Maxima and it supports carplay in USA but in my country it doesn't even though the maximas we get are from the US. I understand that there is a hardware required and I think...

    CarPlay Stopped Working - '16 Honda Accord

    CarPlay was a key factor in my choosing a 2016 Honda Accord over the Mazda CX-5 I was also considering and it was worth it. For 18 months, through a couple of different iOS versions and several point-releases, it was great. But starting with iOS 10.3, CarPlay stopped working. Plugging the...

    2017 Honda Civic CarPlay issues

    Anyone have major glitch issues with CarPlay in a 2017 Honda? Plugging in my iPhone 7 regularly causes the whole system computer to crash, the touchscreen freezes or flickers or both, the audio blast through like digital noise, it sometimes says no device is connected when it is and is playing...

    Music doesn't stay paused after using Siri in CarPlay

    Hello all, It has been a very long time since I posted here, but anyway, I installed a Kenwood stereo with CarPlay in my wife's car the other day and we were having an issue that I can't figure out. My wife likes to drive a lot with no music playing, but when she uses Siri to do anything, as...
