Car Play Help

[Checkairspeed]

Hello all. Apple car play does not appear on my home screen nor in the manage apps settings page. Is able to be downloaded via the display or is this a factory reset issue.? TIA.

Car play only appears after a phone with it is plugged in through USB

This information is also available in your owners manual

Thanks. I did read through the manual. Problem is that when I connect the phone with cable to usb, the car play icon does not appear. Turned the phone on and off. Didn’t work. Went into the general settings on the phone and selected CarPlay, pressed the VC button on the wheel and the phone just keeps a spinning circle next to “available cars”. It obviously is not recognizing the phone. It an iPhone 7, so it should work

Check to make sure you have projection mirroring (or called something like that) option on. This option can be found in the general phone settings in uconnect.

Make sure the cable is genuine i-phone cord. My andriod auto will not recognize my Samsung phone with the aftermarket cord.

I have found that not all usb ports will connect to the uconnect system, only select usb ports work for this.

Thanks all. Using a genuine cable. The projection mirroring was off even though I thought I had turned it on. CarPlay no shows up as an icon, wish me luck it will actually work.

Did you get it sorted out and is it working?
