CarPlay move map with touch

[Aiello antonino]

Is it not possible to move the map through touch screen on CarPlay? Only with the button side controls?

No, it's not possible in Android Auto

@white.mouse That's incorrect.

When Android Auto supports swipe gestures on the screen, our app supports that too. Just drag the screen to move the map.

In CarPlay it is indeed not possible.

@Corjan-Meijerink Any particular reason this is not possible in CarPlay? Other apps do allow it (e.g. Waze), so it doesn't appear to be a CarPlay restriction. I think it would be a major improvement to be able to just have a quick swipe to glance around on the map

Agree! Last time I checked it was a restriction from the HERE software we used.
Perhaps it has changed over the last months but I would need to check that.
