Assuming that I have an iOS app which is managing the payment method of the user (e.g. credit card), what is preventing me to build a CarPlay app (e.g. EV charging app) with a button that triggers the payment of the charging station?
I mean, what are the advantages that will be introduced with iOS 16 that will allow the payment of gas stations from CarPlay?

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.

Hello!
Is there a possibility to test automaker-type app on newly released in additional tools CarPlay simulator?
Our application is not showing on it, and i assume the problem is that we didn't put proper protocol string.

I only have the simulator for testing currently, so perhaps it's a quirk of the simulator.
I have an audio app. I want to keep the view on the phone in sync with state of my player, which involves setting the isPlaying property on on the CPListItems in the list. When I change its value, the list scrolls to the top. I would rather have the list scroll to reveal the playing item, or not at all.

I have a custom intent that allows a user to start a meeting - they don’t have to pick up their phone at all to start/join the meeting. This works perfectly on device - the intent is created, confirmed, and goes to the custom intent handle(intent:completion:) function where I call completion(StartMeetingIntentResponse(code: .continueInApp, userActivity: userActivity)). This opens the app and starts the meeting - all hands-free.
When my device is connected via CarPlay, this intent can’t be completed. It gets all the way to where I call completion(StartMeetingIntentResponse(code: .continueInApp, userActivity: userActivity)), then Siri responds with “Sorry, I can’t do that while you’re driving.” It never makes it to my app delegate, where I have implemented application(_:userActivity:restorationHandler:) and would expect my app to pick up the activity to start the meeting. Why is this happening?
I have implemented the INStartCallIntent similarly - calling completion(INStartCallIntentResponse(code: .continueInApp, userActivity: userActivity)) and that intent works just fine when connected to CarPlay, but my app has a distinction between calling and meeting so I really need both to work.

Hello
When I open CarPlay Simulator and connect the phone, it gives the following error:
Accessory is not Supported
Mac Mini MacOS 12.4 with iPhone 13 Pro iOS 15.5
Does anyone have a solution?

Hello.
In CarPlay programming guide code example, we set the interfaceController property to nil in the didDisconnect method.
// CarPlay disconnected
func templateApplicationScene(_ templateApplicationScene: CPTemplateApplicationScene,
didDisconnect interfaceController: CPInterfaceController) {
self.interfaceController = nil
}
}
However it's not explained why we need this. moreover when we debug we see clearly that the interfaceController is released from memory normally without needing to set it to nil.
Does anyone has an explanation for that ?

I want to connect a physical device (iPhone) and a simulator for CarPlay to simulate an app (ex: PlugShare App) installed on a physical device, but I would like to know if that is feasible.
★ Thing I want to do:
I want take a screenshot for PlugShare App (CarPlay side).
Screenshot like below...

When I download my provisioning profile I can't find the com.apple.developer.carplay-audio entitlement in it.
Here's what I did:
For our app identifier on Apple Developer Portal in "Additional Capabilities" I enabled "CarPlay Audio App (CarPlay framework)".
After that I generated a provisioning profile and downloaded it. In the provisional profile info on Apple Developer Portal I can see "CarPlay Audio App (CarPlay framework)" in "Enabled Capabilities".
When I import the downloaded profile in Xcode, I can't see the CarPlay entitlement there. After I added the "com.apple.developer.carplay-audio" entitlement to my .entitlements file, I'm getting the "Provisioning profile ... doesn't include the com.apple.developer.carplay-audio entitlement.". When I'm opening the profile in my text editor, I also can't find "carplay-audio" there.
Is there a way to solve this problem?

1.What is the translation content from iPhone to car?
2.how to display ui in the car?
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:
https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/8950377
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252212356?login=true&page=1
How can i submit that to Apple to get at least any response?

Does CarPlay belong to screen casting technology? What kind of data is transmitted from the phone to the car?
Hello,
I am build a CarPlay Audio Extension for our App. Users can listen to their Audio Playlist that they made in our App.
Loading remote images for CPListItem causes a problem. The images are always very small not filling out the full reserved space. If I put them as an asset in the app, the images are fully scaled. Anyone who ran into that problem and can help me out? Thank you.
Cheers, Simon

Hi there!
I recently bought a new radio that supports carplay. However I can only get it to work wirelessly, and now the supplier claims its only supposed to work wirelessly on my unit, even though it clearly says that it supports it through USB, in the manual and on the website.
could someone pls confirm if this is actually possible?(to support only wireless and not wired) It has a dedicated USB port for the link to carplay and it registers that an iPhone is in the port when I plug it in, but it just loads forever, and never asks if I want to use carplay.
Best regards

Hello!
Please help me.
I have been using the 13 Pro since November 2021 with great satisfaction. So far I have only used Carplay for navigation and listening to music (Spotify). However, recently, I have had several occasions when I get a call while driving, while using Carplay, and the caller cannot hear me at all, but I can hear the caller perfectly.
The BT system in the car is perfect, no such problem there.
Has anyone else experienced this? What am I messing up? It is simply incomprehensible.
Siri is also active.
Change cable, restart phone and reconnect...all done. Only this function doesn't work. It's the latest 15.4.1. The car is a 2018 Skoda Fabia.

Hi
I see the icon for my app on the CarPlay dashboard but I am unable to launch the app from the CarPlay dashboard controls using my car's controls.
However if the app is launched on the phone - Car Play detects it and I can control the app from the Car controls. Any ideas what could be going on?
Thanks
I have a test like below.
If using Swift:
import CarPlay can works.
If using Objective C:
#import <CarPlay.h> will not work. (I have include the framework from project)
So does it means that from Objective C, we can not using CarPlay framework and its API such as: CarPlaySceneDelegate, CPListItem, etc.
Thanks very much.

Where do I find and how do I install Accessory Developer Profile for CarPlay/Enhanced Siri? I do not see it anywhere in developer.apple.com/download.
I am running the (MFI) CarPlay Tests 2.7 app on my 2 iPhone 7's, each with iOS 15.4.0 installed. Main and Accessory are paired and Main shows it's connected to my Head Unit. When I start the Enhanced Siri Detector Quality test on Main, it shows a popup:
Feature not supported
Make sure you have the Accessory Developer Profile installed with Enhanced Siri enabled, and you're running on the latest iOS version. Please, also check if your HeadUnit supports this feature.
I know my HeadUnit supports this feature because I am able to run it when an iPhone 8 with iOS 15.4.0 is set up as Main. I now need to run it on my iPhone 7. I didn't have to set up this profile on the iPhone 8. I have Siri enabled on this iPhone 7 Main.
After the release of iOS 15.4, I am receiving so many crash reports for CarPlay, and the percentage increased to +140%!
Here is one of the crash logs:

And here is a screenshot from Xcode Organizer, which shows too many wired crashes:
