Damn, no CarPlay or Android Auto.
- Dalewyn 3y agoAm I the only one who likes removal of Apple Carplay and Android Auto? I hate cars that decide to spam me (or the driver if I'm a passenger) if I dare to connect my phone to one of its USB ports to charge it. All I want to do is charge my god damn phone, I ain't got time flinging away spamnotifs on both phone and car. KISS is a virtue.
- ezfe 3y agoThat's a problem with those notifications, not CarPlay. When I connect my phone it just shows a CarPlay icon in the cars app switcher and auto-opens CarPlay if the setting is enabled. No notifications and no hassle.
- HumblyTossed 3y agoWhat kind of care do you have that default goes into AA or CarPlay?? Mine simply shows an icon on the display if I'm on the home screen. If I plug it in while playing the radio it just ... keeps playing the radio. I have zero idea what you mean by spam and I use both systems. That all being said, if you hate AA or CarPlay, I'm sure you'll despise whatever GM cooks up because the only reason they're doing it is to sell you subs.
- fragmede 3y agoWhat kind of car do you have? The rental Ford Explorer I have right now while traveling which pops up 3 different dialogs I can't skip when I plug my iOS phone in; iirc, something about Apple CarPlay, something about SYNC apps (some proprietary Ford thing), and something about calling 911 automatically. And then, it doesn't even turn on CarPlay! So obviously the user experience is dependent on the host vehicle, but the Ford experience is no good, as far as a rental car is concerned.

- rcmjr 3y agoYou can just use a power connection and not a data connection then. Easy enough to buy a cable or adapter. I do that when I have two phones plugged in.
