My wife just got a 2022 Ford Fiesta with a Sync 2.5 radio. It has CarPlay over usb that has so far been about 10% reliable. We’ve tried 3 or 4 lightning cables, a mixture of Apple, Amazon Basics and Anker. Also tried a brand new anker cable. None of them work reliably.
We have to keep, plugging the cable in and out, trying both sides of the cable until CarPlay starts. Once it starts, it keeps working until the car turned off. Turning on without unplugging results in having to do the unplugging/plugging in thing a few times more.
Is wired CarPlay usually this bad?
My car is a 2021 Mini with Wireless CarPlay it rarely doesn’t work. Most of the time it’s because I’ve been using the phone’s hotspot with my ipad and the 2 are still connected.
