My only problem with iOS 27 (and I mean that literally. It's been a great release so far.) is that the light/dark mode switching when connected to my car is insane. There's no dead band built into it so, for example, driving down a tree lined road, Carplay is constantly switching back and forth in rapid--RAPID--succession. My other phone, still on 26, doesn't do that.

Is it using the light sensor?

  In my experience in a Subaru, a Toyota, and a Volvo, it seems to be connected to the car's light sensor (so it triggers at the same time as the automatic headlights). A third-party head unit I've tried was just always light.

How does CarPlay still not have a brightness control? I leave my CarPlay perpetually in dark mode because light mode is searing in all but directly sunlight.

  That would be controlled by the car itself? Surely must be a brightness slider for the infotainment system somewhere?

    Not in Hyundai. The brightness controls have no impact when CarPlay starts up.

That should be controlled by the car, so just get a better car with a working light sensor? :)
