I read a reply that said it was in the CarPlay settings in the car. I'll check that later. Thanks.

It is... there is a Settings app within CarPlay:

That setting is live, and works, for me. A new issue for me though is that once I launch a route in maps it crashes that app. Have to use the phone and view the route using the new widget screen.
Yep i'm having that issue as well, strangely it worked fine for a day after updating to the new public beta before it actually stopped working. I've reverted to Google Maps in the meantime.

Interestingly i tried Apple Maps in the car yesterday and its started working again, used it this morning for 3 different routes and it was fine as well.
 
I reported the missing album artwork setting and album artwork displaying. It says more than 10 reports and that a fix has been identified. will try it out with the next beta. such a weird bug. only seems to affect a small portion of people.
 
CarPlay finally sorta broke a little for me yesterday. When trying to start a route in the full sized Maps screen, it "crashes" to the dashboard view and doesn't start the route. Routing only worked in the dashboard view and only if I (obviously) started it from my phone.) Hoping PB5 fixes that today.

I had that issue last week, i updated to the last PB and it worked fine the next day but then the day after it was doing as you say above. Left it and then i tested it a few days later and it had started working again. No idea what had caused it but dont think the betas were actually to blame as it worked fine initially and was fixed without any update.

Yeah...it has been working perfectly up until yesterday...
 
DP6 has borked Waze again... I can see the Waze controls, but otherwise, it's just a white screen.

And even Apple Maps seems so "washed out", color-wise.
 
I’m on Beta 6 and for the last few betas when am using Apple Maps when in CarPlay it sends turn by turn drop down notifications to my phone screen even though I have every possible notification turned off for maps.

I have maps up on my car play screen so I don’t need notifications on my phone. Anyone else have this issue?
 
I am driving a 2020 BMW 3-Series with wireless CarPlay. The issue is:

CarPlay itself is working finde, but I can’t use any of the steering wheel controls (skip song, accept call etc.).

i am pretty sure these used to work. Could this be due to iOS 13??

I know this isn't particularly helpful - but yours might be a semi-isolated case. I'm not seeing this on B6 on an XS. Everything is working fine.

works now, never mind.

When I downloaded PB1 the album artwork was displayed on the now playing screen, then a few weeks later without even updating to a new beta it just stopped displaying it. Funny fact is that I tried my phone on a different car yesterday and it does show it there but not on my car. I wonder if is the carmaker who is restricting it.

There is now a setting in CarPlay’s new settings app that controls this. Perhaps it’s switched off for your car?
 
I tell you one thing after all the updates the Amazon App for CarPlay sucks. Plays the wrong songs, doesn't play at all, freezes. Not working very well for me.

On settings I don't have the option to show art album cover, it's missing. Also on the dashboard I don't see on the right side the third row with suggestions, even though is selected on settings.
 
iOS B8 fixed the album art not showing and the setting missing from the settings screen for me. Both show now on my 2019 RAV4 with 8" screen.
 
I installed B8 and tried it out on a 6 hour drive today. What a disaster! One time I had the map turn into a pixelated mess, the navigation directions stopped at least 5 or 6 times, the titles of the songs said "No title". All of these fixed themselves by unplugging and plugging the phone back in.

Weird, mines been flawless on Beta 7 and 8.
