  1. Carplay wireless dongle --needed or not?

    My car has wired CarPlay only and my mother just bought a car with wireless CarPlay, and while it is super convenient that it connects as soon as you start her Lexus, she always ends up plugging her phone in to charge anyway because CarPlay is a battery hog. I guess that leaves me wondering what...
  2. Just had an Alpine ILX-650 installed into 2018 Jeep Wrangler and CarPlay won't connect

    We just had a new Alpine ILX-650 installed into a 2018 Jeep Wrangler. When we plug our iPhone into the USB port located inside the console, the CarPlay option does not appear.

  7. Colorado Will CarPlay announce incoming texts?

    New iPhone connected to CarPlay via Apple USB cable. When a new text comes to my iPhone, it is not “announced” audibly. No Siri voice, no new text tone!

  8. UConnect and Apple Car Play: Apple Maps/GPS ONLY

    I recently learned that with UConnect and Apple Carplay the only maps you will be offered on the beautiful large screen are either the built-in GPS or Apple Maps. Sadly, you won't be able to pull up Waze or Google Maps on the UConnect screen. For those of you using UConnect with AndriodAuto...
