It used to, but a few years ago (2019 I think?) they changed so that it's a properly separate display.
The only thing you can't do is separately play audio from the phone (because the CarPlay unit is basically serving as its output while it's connected), or use your maps app to do something different while the navigation is running on the CarPlay unit (because CarPlay is just a view into the phone's apps, and so they'll both be in navigation mode).
- orf 4y agoCarPlay is awesome, but I found the lack of being able to use maps very restricting. If you’re driving with someone who is co-piloting then them being able to use your phone to scout ahead for stops, restaurants etc is really useful. We ended up using Google Maps for this while navigating with Apple Maps.
- weeblewobble 4y agoYeah or they can just use their own phone
- orf 4y agoNot sure how juggling two phones, then having to manually copy addresses with potentially foreign characters between them is better. No, just let me view the damn map on my phone and the car display?
- glhaynes 4y agoIt's strange to me that Apple Maps is the only app I know of that works this way.
