Make Apple CarPlay Super USEFUL! (Customize It To Your Preference)

[@NeitherSparky]

This is the second vid on Carplay features I’ve watched and both leave something out when it comes to showing your last parking location. So if you’re trying to do that and the option for it is not showing up on your phone this is what you have to do: First you have to enable a feature called “Significant Locations”. Go to Settings>Privacy>Location Services and scroll all the way to the bottom and select System Services, then select Significant Locations, and on the next screen enable Significant Locations. I think this is a setting a lot of people don’t like to use because technically it allows Apple to “track” you plus I hear it can use battery. Anyways once that is enabled, then get in your car and turn it on and connect to Carplay, and THEN you can go to Settings>Maps and enable Show Parked Location (in my experience the option will not show up immediately after enabling Significant Locations but it did for me when I started Carplay, but you can try it before). I hope that helped somebody. It drove me crazy until I figured it out. :P

Thanks for the blur video man very usefull.

😂😂😂

[@fredaydaybae8450]

🤣

[@robsontenorio2]

Maybe in the next video just park away from your home. 😂

[@VengefulGreyJedi]

He blurred it because of privacy concerns like he said. 🤣 Did you even watch the video? Or listen to what he said? 😆

You’re literally the only person who explained that the album cover art works on all third party apps and not just Spotify :’) I love you

[@Dan-mb2zc]

Question: the screen you had at 4:10 , the left is the map but how do you change the two on the right side. Mine has a search and and iTunes. Neither I need.

[@margaretanderson5011]

Thanks, i really needed "always dark", the brightness was a distraction.

[@gavincostigan4641]

I installed android on my old raspberry pi and used a carplay adapter and apk. I linked it up to the android screen control on my 7 year old kenwood head unit and it works! I may add... it is still more responsive than ford sync. but there's not much to compete with there.

[@mefitdev]

Make a tutorial bro.

[@wbeard358]

I find it useful for maps and not much else 🤷‍♂️

[@reginagunter7919]

Best tutorial video by far! Thank you. It was packed with a lot of info., so I may have to watch it again.

[@joeretired4552]

How does one add new apps to carplay? Not just the ones that show on the iphone already - new apps, from apple store????

[@SonicSHO314]

I don’t see the option for “show parked location” on my iPhone 12 Pro running iOS 14... Why is that?

[@danhodson7187]

Ah thanks, finally now my watch won't go berserk on my wrist at every turn on my journey!

I have a toyota rav4 2023 with car play. I have Sirius XM, too. Where there is the split screen between the map and other apps - can this be modified so I can see the map on one side and the Sirius XM radio stations on the right?

[@TheBerkeleybob]

Excellent, informative video, and thanks for making. One question: I just took delivery of a new VW ID.4 and while I am able to create a split screen with Apple Maps and my streaming app, Qobuz, I am not able to figure out how to do the same when listening to Sirius/XM Radio which is native to the car and not the phone. I was bale to do this with my previous (Mazda) vehicle. Is there a way to do this with my VW? Thx!

[@ImMmLEGEND]

Can you make the clock display larger font?

[@magen1003]

Thanks for the info.. Can you tell me if there is a way to get sound from non CarPlay apps on my phone when connected to CarPlay? I have an alpine ILX 407 and I get notifications on my phone but no sound and sometimes miss them? Please let me know if there is a way to get sound on my iPhone and radio. I am also using a wireless toggle to connect automatically.

[@ThreeTwentyTech]

I wish CarPlay can link to your iPhone wirelessly. That would be a game changer!

[@chrisgornall3125]

Carplay2air....works like a charm!

[@klcscorpio]

Audis with their latest software update do

[@klcscorpio]

In my humble opinion wireless CarPlay is pointless if you don’t have wireless charging

[@ThreeTwentyTech]

@@klcscorpio An all in 1 out the phone down and it chargers while transferring information to the car. Any ideas if it’s possible to enable CarPlay with Bluetooth?

Can we use the OBD2 with Apple CarPlay?

[@reginagunter7919]

Can you do a video on how to get your car to forget your iPhone, so you can re-connect it later to update your contacts, and re-synch everything? Best video by far! Thank you!

[@carlosthesolar3010]

Can you add apps to car play? Like youtube

Great video; still confused about how to change apple maps volume control - could. you advise.

[@danielmooney3901]

Great video thank you! Can you connect to Apple CarPlay via Bluetooth or do you have to plug it in? I am picking up my apple car play enabled car next week. Thanks!

[@TheBaciWorld]

It depends on the car and the trim of the car as well

[@rwoods7979]

nice video but how can i make siri control XM Radio or FM radio stations that are on the car ??

[@howardbloom7926]

Will the map show up in the Heads Up Display?

[@Yonatova]

Another question: How can I mute music when I want to listen to an incoming message? Super annoying that I can't hear the message over the music! My 10 year old Camry mutes the music!

[@franklinmontoya8730]

Hello i was wondering if u can do any apps on car play not just what they recommend Bt like let’s say I want my calculator app. How do I do tht

[@Wrenchingdaily]

Just an FYI the appearance feature has nothing to do with whether the sun is going down or not. When this setting is in automatic it will dim the display when the headlights are activated and when in always dark the display is always dimmed whether or not the headlights are activated.

[@TEDSHOTTHAT]

Good vid man

[@needespresso1]

Uhh yeah that’s just where Lamborghini’s have the CarPlay screen. It’s all built in to the cars dashboard.

[@allenbeaulieu6069]

Hi Thank you for this video. Still in the custum section on my phone there seams to be some diffrences between your system and mine. The apps are mostly locked. I can take away some but those I want to take away and the worst, I can't add those I want. I would like to add IExit to my apple car play but the system is locked, the same with diffrent GPS. I am using specialised GPS to drive my RAM with an RV but I just can't add these to apple car play. Do you know a way to add them? thank you Allen

[@Civilian10827]

Probably phone os update?

[@wendyplatt9665]

Excellent. Well presented and hit the points I was curious about.

[@nickc7039]

Hey so the reason I came here is when I get a call it occupies the entire screen. When I answer I then have to click maps again and then the split screen view to split screen which then shows call on bottom right where music would normally be. Is there a way to stay in split screen with map open so it goes right to that bottom right panel and Navi stays active??

[@juanjuarez3677]

Can you do how to add more apps

[@stuartschlossman7406]

Thank you - Am glad I watched as I was ready to turn-away a new car arriving as it did not arrive with the GPS Navigation that I ordered. Seeing this tutorial, made me realize How much better, Apple Car Play might be ..

[@Doleary1]

By chance yesterday using Apple CarPlay and Apple Maps on my Honda the controls for sound for example which let you mute or allow the turn by turn instructions were displayed on the right hand side of the screen when they had always previously been on the left hand side of the screen. It is not a major issue but does anyone know how you can switch the controls from one side to the other?

[@johnsir9720]

My playlists and Albums is not bold, it’s grey. Can’t click on it. Any idea why it goes in and out ?

[@mikeb3010]

So Tesla allow media, but VW on apple play don’t, surely a ‘parked’ mode can be intergrated ?

[@nisiabonita]

This video was very helpful and detailed. Thank you.

[@WJLW_71]

I’m curious why you didn’t drive to a mutual location to do this video? Crazy there were times you were “showing” us how to do something with the whole screen blurred😂

[@TheAlmighty]

bruh he should've recorded at a random location lmao

[@flavioa6351]

Because the blur doesn’t get in the way. You don’t need to see the location to understand what he’s saying

[@tianaigarashi5043]

This was such a helpful video, thank you!! I'm assuming everyone hating is old lmfao bc it was easy for me to follow. There were so many features I didn't know you could use with Apple CarPlay! And obviously you had to blur certain sections to avoid disclosing your location but the rest is easy to figure out. :)

[@Ghostface.14]

That setting is in your car’s stereo not CarPlay or the iphone itself. Look in the stereo settings for CarPlay and then find an option called “driving position” that’s should be the setting
