Is there a way to get Apple Carplay to display full screen instead of half screen?

[Tallcane]

Having the giant screen in the truck but only half of it being used for carplay bothers me a lot and I haven't been able to figure out if I can get it to display on the whole screen. If it can could someone tell me how or link a video that shows how.

Welcome to the forum, some additional details on your truck may help. That said, if your truck is pre 2022 and UConnect 5, there isn't a way to go full screen carplay that I am aware of

I have a 2021 1500 limited. I'm not sure what UConnect it is.

UConnect is the infotainment system (radio). The 19-21s have UConnect 4. The new system, UConnect 5 is in the 2022s and carplay displays full screen by default. It's a whole new system.

If only.

Potentially OT here, but I'll mention it anyway. When taking a screen capture with your phone in CarPlay mode, the phone will take two screen grabs: one of your phone, the other of the CarPlay display (top half of the screen).
