Carplay has been a pretty buggy experience for me as well (in a Citroen). I'm not sure how much it's the fault of the car or the phone.
- sometimes nothing happens when I plug in the phone
- navigation instructions are sometimes barely audible even though the music is loud
- Siri sometimes gets stuck
It's nice when it works, but it still feels a lot like a beta.
Siri voice recognition is really bad. The car's built in voice navigation is much better (eg. the car will offer the top 3 choices when it's not sure, and I can just say "2" when number two is correct. Siri on the other hand will almost always try to send me to places hundreds of kilometers away....
- judge2020 7y agoThose are most likely all integration issues. - the car can choose to always open carplay when the phone is plugged in, or it could use other signals to "intelligently" decide if it should open carplay. You can try seeing if it pops up depending on what state the UI is in (are you in a menu?), the time since you last interacted with the display, or whether or not the car is moving. - likely an issue with attenuation on the car's side (if you're listening to music via the car; if music and navigation is through carplay that's an issue) - car might be doing something to activate or pass through the microphone to the phone
