Route recording on CarPlay.

Hi there,
Howto record a route on your CarPlay device? I installed a CarPlay device on my motorcycle but was unable to start and save actual driven routes.....no "start recording" button or anything....let alone a save button......Is this functionality not active via CarPlay??

@Jerry-Brok-Wacky In the Nav settings under functional you can set for routes to commence recording automatically - the track recording line is shown on the CarPlay screen. However, any other track recording functions for stop or pause etc have to be done from your phone.

@Dave-J-0 Okay that is too bad. Why not make all functions (navigational-wise) available on the CarPlay screen? It makes using your phone on the bike, not needed anymore. It's not that difficult i presume to make that "start record" button available on the CarPlay app!??

@Jerry-Brok-Wacky the problem is Apple restricts what the developers can and cannot put in CarPlay. The MRA Dev Team will over time include more functions but not all the functions that the phone has.
Put entries under the suggestions area and the Dev’s will respond in due course. Not sure what features they are looking to include and what timeline.

..... It's not that difficult i presume to make that "start record" button available on the CarPlay app!??Short answer: yes it is (like @Dave-J-0 explained above)
Many would wish it was that easySome people consider AA/CP to be a mirror to the phone screen, but that is way to simplistic. In Fact AA/CP are applications on their own made and limited by Google/Apple, merely getting input from an app on the phone.

@Jerry-Brok-Wacky The Scenic app has a record, resume, stop function in carplay so it can be achieved, one of the reasons i stopped using the app but check back to see if it’s been implemented.

@HighPeakRider I am going to get Scenic too, as soon as they will make it available for Android.

Currently tracking only from CarPlay / Android Auto is not supported.
We will do so in the future. -

Its been outstanding for ages and one of the reasons I've been using Scenic but just renewed my MRA.What I really want is.
1 / Start recording a ride in CarPlay
2/ Show speed limit and speed in free ride .Cheers Phil

@HighPeakRider Meanwhile a work around is:
Start MRA also on your phone. Start navigating from your Carplayn device and you'll see that on your phone the track recording has started. If not press recoring on your phone. Once it had started recording you ca turn of the screen of you phone and it wil keep on recording on your Carplay device. The yellow line is visible -

@HighPeakRider unfortunately no exact planning for this.
1 will happen before 2.
1 will be included after the 5.0 release which is a massive overhaul of the app and includes the required changes for 1 to happen.This 5.0 is currently in early Alpha stage testing, hoping beta in approx a month and release is also dependant on some contractual agreements.
The major overhaul is also aimed to facilitate 2.
Sorry for the honest answer
