I installed iOS 14 Beta on my iPhone 11 and Carplay suddenly stopped working on my BMW 318 2017.
I’ve checked that bold text is off, restarted both iPhone and head unit, made sure that Siri is on.
Every time I try to connect I get an error “Unable to Establish Connection”
It worked just fine before the update.

Hi,
we are currently integrating the new CarPlay experience in iOS 14 (com.apple.developer.carplay-audio) in our radio app and already use MPNowPlayingInfoCenter and MPRemoteCommandCenter. In this context we came across some weird behavior: when playing a live stream (MPNowPlayingInfoPropertyIsLiveStream = true) the NowPlayingTemplate on CarPlay always displays the stop button even when we only configure for play and pause button. The stop button then doesn't do anything (because we didn't assign any action to it). Also are other actions like skipBackwards and nextTrack disabled.
When declaring the audios property to not live, everything works fine.
Is there any way we can have a live stream and also make the template display pause button and enable other actions?

I'm developing a CarPlay Audio app that works with both 13.x and 14.x.
iOS 13.x uses Media Player framework and iOS 14.x uses CarPlay framework.
The code for iOS 14.x is designed to work on 14.0 and above as shown below.
@available(iOS 14.0, *)
class CarPlaySceneDelegate: UIResponder, CPTemplateApplicationSceneDelegate {
var interfaceController: CPInterfaceController?
However, when I run it on 13.7, it crashes when the app starts.
I've found that using one of the following methods causes the app to crash:
CPNowPlayingAddToLibraryButton
CPNowPlayingMoreButton
CPNowPlayingRepeatButton
CPNowPlayingShuffleButton
CPNowPlayingPlaybackRateButton
CPNowPlayingImageButton
Only the CPNowPlayingButton is ok.
Why does code that should only work on iOS 14 and above affect iOS 13?
The following simple code crashes when running on iOS 13:
import UIKit
import CarPlay
@main
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
if #available(iOS 14, *) {
_ = CPNowPlayingShuffleButton { (button) in
}
}
return true
}
I am developing two CarPlay apps where one is navigation app and other is Food Ordering app.
My requirement is to launch navigation app from Food Ordering app after successfully placing an order to show navigation to restaurant.
I tried it by handling URL schemes in sample CarPlay navigation app provided by Apple.
Here is code which I implemented in Food order app:
let coastalHooks = "CoastalRoads://"
if let coastalUrl = URL(string: coastalHooks) {
if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(coastalUrl) {
UIApplication.shared.openURL(coastalUrl)
}
}
As In CoastalRoads app there are two scene delegates are handled one is 'LoggerWindowSceneDelegate', which is for main phone app and other is 'TemplateApplicationSceneDelegate', which is for CarPlay but didn't found anything to launch specific scene of CarPlay.
Here is link where from I downloaded sample CarPlay app:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/carplay/integrating_carplay_with_your_navigation_app
Basic Information
Automation forcing to tap on screen - application run command is not reacting to 'ask when run' unslide during connection or disconnection to Carplay
https://discussions.apple.com/content/attachment/00d1627f-dcaa-4ddf-995a-c1b75560d096
translation:
When connecting to Carplay
Tap, to run "open application
Next"
Issue
I have noticed since iOS 14.3 and iOS 14.4 automations are working different with Carplay.
Previously i was able to create the automation with follwing steps: open waze
open spotify
open sygic
Of course i set it to 'do not ask when run' and set to run when i am connecting.
At now, the automation is forcing me me to confirm by tapping the phone each time i am entering the car to allow the 'open' command for application what i want to run in background.
Commands like 'play' or 'turn on gsm' are working without confirmation, but 'run app' not.
Most probably the issue is not related only to Carplay automation, but for Automation as is.
I tested on few carplay units, all same effect, BMW 330i F30 OEM carplay, BMW 428i F32 + Andream MMI
Steps to reproduce: create automation for Carplay
unslide 'ask to run'
add 'open appliction' as action
lock the phone and ensure it is locked in pocket
turn on the car with paired carplay
observe the automation is NoT running while connecting do Carplay.
on the phone you will see notification about allowig app to run.
I tested it also on my second phone with 14.0.2 ios (older) and is working perfectly. Whan i unlide 'ask to run' it is just opening an apps and not asking them to run.
Raised on feedback but nobody seems to care:

Hi,
My account was approved for the com.apple.developer.playable-content entitlement, but now it's deprecated and I want to switch to the new one com.apple.developer.carplay-audio.
I have some problems making the transition, do I need to submit a new request to Apple for the new entitlement?
Thanks.

Hi devs!
I use apple car play (ACP) in my Vw Tiguan. I have used it for over three years with no issues .
since IOS 14.6 ACP no longer functions as it did for google navigation.
there was a red voice button available within maps , when selected you just said what address you wanted . ACO/google maps then provided the address with options.
The red voice button has now been removed from the menu. The red button was called voice.
I have unpaired my phone and re-paired
i have turned the phone off snd on same as the car .
Siri is enabled .
there have been no software updates to the far in the last 6 months .
this appears to be a defect introduced within IOS 14.6 and probably require remedial action by the development team.
I have been through this with a level 2 senior support person and this now seems the only viable solution.
please advise on a fix.
thank you

Hello everyone!
I am adding in my react native project the CarPlay framework via native code and in PointOfInterest I want to add the 'primaryButton' on the 'Details Card'. So as I saw in the docs (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/carplay/cppointofinteresttemplate?language=objc) there is the property of 'primaryButton' for this template but it's not added somehow on CPPointOfInterest when 'Creating a PointOfInterest template'..
So how can I added...?
Any help is welcome :)

Hi, I'm developing an app to control in-car & orv accessories. Having this available via carplay would make driving safer and more convenient, is there a template I could use/reuse to accomplish this?

Is it possible to start the main UIScene manually for the phone when launching the app from CarPlay first?
If the phone app is closed and launched from CarPlay, then the UIWindowScene isn't created for the phone.
Just looking if there's an easy way to instantiate the phone's UIScene programatically using UIApplication
I am finding a way to get car odometer value using a car smart system. like Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay
Is there any library or class to get car information from CarPlay, like car sensors, car speed, odometer value, etc?
In android, there is one library call android.car which provides all kinds of car information like, car speed, fuel, odometer value, tire pressure, door status, etc.
I am finding a library for apple CarPlay to, get the above car information
Thanks

Hi,
We have an app that already supports Apple CarPlay, but the current app version only supports com.apple.developer.playable-content which is now depricated, I already create a new provisioning profile with the (Carplay Audio Carplay Framework) but when i download the new provisioning profile, xcode says "Provisioning profile doesn't include the com.apple.developer.carplay-audio entitlement.
And i can confirm that the profile doesnt include it with the command line "security cms -D -i App.mobileprovision | xmllint --xpath "/plist/dict/key[text()='Entitlements']/following-sibling::dict[position()=1]
but in the developer portal it says the provisioning profile includes carplay Framework...
Do i miss some steps? (Btw my entitlements file includes both carplay-audio and playable-content keys)

Hi. I just setup my iPhone 13 yesterday. I went to go somewhere, plugged in my phone with Apple carplay (I have a 2020 Honda Civic, same head unit from 2016-2021). It connects fine, but I soon as I go to play music, it crashes. My head unit says something along the lines of it’s not compatible. I tried everything from hard reset and resetting the head unit, nothing works. Tried looking it all my settings both iPhone and head unit, nothing works at all. I need help asap. Paid a lot of money for this phone and I’m very disappointed.
RUNNING IOS 15

How do I get my Apple Car play working?
Post not yet marked as solved
Hey,
We are developing a CarPlay application, already requested the entitlements to Apple and they were granted.
We added the Additional Capabilities to the specifics App ids that we wanted and generated new provisioning profiles for them.
The entitlements are shown in the developer portal as can be seen in the screenshot
It's working great for the Development profile.
The problem we are facing is that, on the App Store profile, the entitlements are gone in the downloaded file.
Has anybody ever faced anything like this? Do we need additional permissions to be able to deploy a CarPlay application to production?
Cheers,
Daniel

I've been looking everywhere and can't find an answer on how to style these templates and more specifically the CPGridButton that has some blue background on the title.
