First CarPlay Test
-
I had the following issues with CarPlay this morning, they could be setting that I could not find. Tested on a Honda 2017 Pilot:
1: CarPlay lost tracking route after GPS drifted off course. iPhone kept the track.
2: At my first waypoint I stopped and paused my route on iPhone. Upon resuming I had to restart the route, which then forced me to skip the waypoint. Before pausing it knew I had arrived.
3: No ability to zoom in/out
4: Note of the following icons were available through CarPlay, however displayed on navigation:- No next waypoint icon
- No start/pause/save icon
- No setting icon
- No MPH posted speed icon
I plan to use CarPlay on Harley with Boom Audio which is glove friendly. Will be testing once I get good weather.

Here is a short video to show the behavior in case of power interruption with the Elebest Carpaly display.
When restarting (repower), the loaded route on the mobile phone is deleted.
It is, of course, possible to reload the route. But if you are on the road and take a break halfway, you have to find the right entry point again, or have to delete all waypoint before.
I will see how this works in practice, the weather is terrible at the moment.Hardware

@Walter-Coady correct, quite some features are still under development in CarPlay as mentioned in the announcement
Thanks for the other feedback!

@Corjan-Meijerink Sorry, I meant to add that some of these might still be in the works. I got a message there was a new feature on my iPhone. I didn't see the official announcement. I should have looked before posting.

@Bart-DM Yes, it is the C650.

First my compliments for the Apple Carplay implentation. The first impressions looks good.
Also, my appreciation for solving the car radio "off" problem.
My car radio now mutes out during spoken information. I'm glad this problem is solved now.The problem mentioned by Jörgen also occurred to me..
This morning I had to stop twice to reload the A to B route.Q1: I hope the A to B function will be implemented in Apple Carplay so I can start a route directly via Apple Carplay? Now I have to start a A to B Route on my iPhone.
Q2: Is it possible on Apple Carplay to show my speed and maximum speed like on my iPhone?
Q3: I hope for the future it is possible to start a A to B route driectly from Apple CarplayBesides this. Apple carplay shows me different information than shown on the iphone.

@Albert-van-den-Elsen Thanks for the compliments!
The answer to all your questions is: yes!
We will continue to add features to CarPlay over the upcoming updates. -
Hey. Sorry maar ik zie zowel op de motor en auto CarPlay gewoon een wit scherm ook de geladen route zie ik wel op gsm maar niet in CarPlay verschijnen blijft wit scherm Heb een i phone XR met nieuwste update. Waar kan dit aan liggen.
Groetjes Fabrice Leijs -
@Fabrice-Leijs het beste is om een app pas op te starten als CarPlay verbonden is. We zijn hard aan het werk om dat probleem op te lossen.

Just one request, if the post starts in English, can you please continue writing in English? Thank you!
Slechts één verzoek, als het bericht in het Engels begint, kunt u dan alstublieft in het Engels blijven schrijven? Bedankt!

Good morning,
the first CarPlay test was done yesterday for a short trip.
You first have to get used to starting the tour on your mobile phone. This worked well so far and the tour started normally. After a few kilometres, however, the app crashed at a junction.
I think the crash data is transmitted to you via Test Flight.
By the way, that was not the only crash, it happened again on the way back.
But you could start the route again via "Last route". However, the starting point was then waypoint no. 1 and the destination no. 2, but you could skip waypoint 1 and the route continued normally.
What else happened can be seen in the pictures. The additional information was lost and could only be seen on the mobile phone.
But what worked very well were the announcements and hints. This worked well with the radio sound. The radio was turned down and the sound came back after the announcement.Test Hardware: iPhone X 16.3.1 and CarPlay Radio in the Seat Arona (VAG Type)
The good thing is that screnshots are made for both (mobile phone and Carplay display).
As you can see, additional information is lost.
@Jörgen said in First CarPlay Test:

@Corjan-Meijerink I am coming back to this because the current version (4.0.2. - 202) is not working well (as the version before).
For some reason, the old issue from before March is back in the current version.Radio is still not coming back after navigation announcement and speed warning.
Please reactivate the function build in the March 25th version.

Ok, so it is more complex then before?
Anyway you know now and I will wait patiently.
