Apple iOS 26.2 update - CarPlay Experience?

[Rammy1201]

Apple just dropped the 26.2 iOS update. Anyone update their phones and try CarPlay yet? If you had issues with audio skipping before, did it solve the issue? Or did new issues come up?

I am terrified of updating my iPhone because while my CarPlay experience is less than stellar, it can always be worse!

I'm on their beta OS list. The one I tried prior to the final 26.1 ended up causing me to lose IOS app icon function at bottom of screen when in carplay full screen. Touching them would make my climate control go berserk since its same screen position technically. Got a bit timid since I commute and music is life. LOL

As for the pauses, clicks etc, I'm still getting the random pauses with any audio source on 26.1 final. Uconnect ver is up to date as well.

Update: iOS 26.2 installed tonight and so far no audio issues.

Just updated this morning. Won't be driving much this weekend, but will report back Monday for sure.

I just did a quick into town. Found no issues.

I haven't updated to 26.2 yet. Yesterday, I had a route mapped in carplay and it hung up. I realized that it was stuck when I passed my exit and it told me the exit was 2.4 miles ahead. I switched to the truck's native nav and used it for a bit then switched back and carplay was functioning again. I'm not sure what happened there, but it was the first time I'd used it since upgrading to 26.1. If ti happens again, I will go ahead and upgrade to 26.2 to see if that fixes the issue.
