    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...

    First of all I am sorry if I am in the wrong section, wasn't sure which section to submit this thread at. 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...

    Sending Messages in CarPlay

    Hey all, I couldn't find a dedicated CarPlay section, so I don't know where else to post this. I have a Pioneer AppRadio 4 (SPH-DA120) on Firmware 1.12 and an iPhone 7 Plus running 10.2 dev beta 1. My CarPlay is running just fine with the exception of the specific task of Siri sending a...

    Car Play has become jealous and needy!

    I have a Pioneer head unit, which was pre-installed in my car, but i'm reasonably sure it's just a bog standard Pioneer AVIC-F970DAB with a custom boot up logo.(Which I think is sold under a different name in the US and other places!) Since upgrading to iOS10, car play has to be in...

    Getting in the Car Reminders

    I have a new car with carplay and bluetooth. And I can't seem to set these reminders up. I can ask siri "remind me yada yada when i get in the car" and she'll create a reminder where getting in the car shows up as the location, but its hit or miss on whether it works. If I manually create a...

    CarPlay Maps w/Apple Watch Issue

    Has anyone found a way to turn off the Apple Watch notifications for turning only while connected to CarPlay? I want the notifications when I am walking and using directions, but while I am driving I would rather not have Maps open on my watch and getting tapped for every turn. Thanks! Macaddict16

    Question IOS 10 said to put more info on bigger car screens. Anyone have a car where that’s working

    Cars like the 2017 Mercedes E300 and the 2017 Audi Q7 have 12 inch screens and support CarPlay. Apple says that CarPlay for IOS 10 will actually make it possible to show more info on such screens. I'm curious if anyone has SEEN that working, OR if anyone has tried IOS 10 CarPlay on these or...

    Is CarPlay wireless with the new iPhone?

    I didn't see it anywhere. I'm considering buying a new head unit that uses CarPlay. Any CarPlay experts here? Reviews? Did CarPlay get updated with the new music app? Is the Pioneer SPH-DA120 any good? It's the cheapest head unit I've come across so far. Thanks!

    My Experiences with CarPlay

    A couple of weeks ago I had a nasty shunt in my car so I've had to send it to the garage for repairs. In the meantime, I've been renting a truly terrible Opel Corsa 1.4. While it drives like a dog and has less puff than my desk fan, it does have some interesting interior options including...

    CarPlay changing my usage of Siri and Maps

    I've been using iPhones for years and two things I have not used much at all are Siri and Apple Maps. I tried both initially but then quickly abandoned them. I installed a CarPlay head unit a few weeks back and since then I've been using both a lot more. I've discovered the coolness of asking...

    CarPlay Directions in Centre Dial

    Does anyone know how apple is implementing this? Surely it's defendant on the car manufacturer itself updating their infotainment system to allow it?

    CarPlay - Navigation in 3D vs 2D

    Posting this here because the MR admins won't create a CarPlay forum. I am using a Pioneer AVH-4200NEX with an iPhone 6S+. I prefer the 3D navigation where it gives you a "point of view" orientation to the map. If I use CarPlay to put in a destination, it comes up in 3D navigation mode. I...
