I have never had anything under “apps” even after the update. I can’t seem to find where I would even add an app. I appreciate your help. Thank you again in advance.

Way cool! Thank you for taking the time to do that. I do not have that on my screen at all. I have all of the others listed like yours, but not that one. When I go to my version, it says 21.18.14

Nope. No update yet.
Like someone said, it may be a fix for the newer 2021 trucks.

Thank you all, I was afraid it was a hardware limitation, but never hurts to ask. Thank you again all!

I ordered an adapter from Ottocast that allows you to connect wirelessly to CarPlay. It works great... for about a minute. Now I have to send it back. There are a couple different adapters out there. I might try another.

Here is a very cool device that takes the wireless to a new level. Anything on your iPhone can be put on the dash screen.

In over a year my 2020 has never updated and the drive uconnet website always say my VIN is up to date. The Sirius lags so much.

I noticed that when changing Sirius channels using the steering wheel controls works a little strangely now. I'm not sure if it was always like this, but holding the button scrolls through channels 5 at a time. That's a cool feature that I don't mind...but if you click too fast to just go down one channel or two, the stupid thing suddenly goes 5 or 10 channels. Even if the 5 at a time feature was already there, I feel like the sensitivity was somehow tweaked, to the point where the switch is damn near useless.

Any other ideas what else has been messed with?

You got it Aspen. Mine is doing the exact same thing. Channels skip about 1/5 attempts to change channel…51,52,53,58,59…. I was on the phone with Uconnect assistant for 40 minutes and they said to take it in to the dealer.

I noticed the EXACT same situation on mine!


Add me to the list of people that are having the "channel jump" issue toggling through Sirius stations with the steering wheel control. Kinda annoying at the least....

My truck indicated it needed to update the software this morning. I started it and it took approximately 40mins to complete. I don’t see anything major except it says it now supports wireless CarPlay. I have an iPhone 11 with vs14 IOS and cannot seem to figure out how to connect CarPlay wirelessly. Still connects fine via wired. I deleted my phone and reconnected it, didn’t seem to help. I have checked several settings on my phone. Anyone else get CarPlay to work on 2021 Ram? Thanks in advance!
