Feature Request: App Intents Support for Locked-Screen CarPlay Automations
-
I am trying to set up a personal automation in the iOS Shortcuts app that automatically launches this app when my iPhone connects to CarPlay.
Currently, if my phone is locked and in my pocket, iOS blocks the standard "Open App" action for security reasons and requires me to unlock the phone to continue.
To fix this, could you please implement App Intents (specifically an intent to "Start Navigation" or "Resume Route")? If these intents are configured to allow execution when the device is locked (by setting the authentication policy to allow it), the app would be able to launch seamlessly in the background via CarPlay automations.
This would be a huge quality-of-life improvement for those of us who use the app daily while driving! Thank you for your time and hard work.
