Carplay still freezes and crashes for me. I have a feeling it will eventually do the same for anyone who has been having issues.
I love CarPlay, and I give automakers a lot of 💩 if they decide to abandon CarPlay. That said, if Apple breaks CarPlay, I’m not sure how Apple can remotely expect automakers to hop on board for their next iteration of CarPlay. I’ve NEVER had a bug in a beta that i found to be unbearable until Apple broke CarPlay.
One thing I have noticed out of my large sample size of 2 vehicles is that CarPlay is FUBAR on our car with a smaller, older touch screen (2016 Ford), but works without issue in the car with a newer wider touch screen (2022 Kia).
