iPhone 13 pro Apple CarPlay crashi… | Apple Developer Forums

Developer Forums

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.

I was having this issue with my 2019 Jeep Compass my iPhone 10 Xs max worked just fine when connected to CarPlay. Friday after switching to the new 13, CarPlay would display when plugged in but crash when I tried to play music or use the map. Changing the equalizer from “Late Night” worked for me! Yay!!!!

I am having the same issue. I have the 13 Pro 256GB phone and when I plug it into my 2020 Honda Civic Hatchback’s CarPlay system it will shut down after starting music or within a couple of seconds.

Same issue here turned off equalizer than I went into car settings and removed my phone from Bluetooth and from carplay. Removed the car from my phones Bluetooth. Shut the car down and powered my iPhone down. Turned everything back on and the in I sync the Bluetooth and plugged in the CarPlay. It reset and worked.

I am having the same issue. iPhone 13 pro max on a Honda Civic 2017. The CarPlay shows up when I plug it in but as soon as I touch a button it crashes. I tried everything from unpairing all my devices on the car and phone, tried a different cable..reset my phone.

I had the same issue with my 2020 Ranger. Today after work I decided to go to CarPlay in settings, I clicked the sync 3 option and then clicked “forget this car”. For some reason this worked for me. Give it a try.

I’m on the iPhone 13 Pro 128GB model and CarPlay will not even work for me at all. The day I got my iPhone 13 Pro (9/25) it worked just fine but last night when I went to plug it in to the car, it wouldn’t work. I spent about a good hour trying to figure out why it wasn’t working. I even did everything possible to get it to work and no luck. Hopefully they can get this fixed.

Having the same issue with my iPhone 13 Pro. I can’t play Apple Music because it crashes when I use CarPlay. Hope Apple fixes this bug.

I have been having this same exact issue with my 2020 Range Rover Evoque and my new iPhone 13 Pro.

My iPhone 12 Pro would connect perfectly fine, even after the iOS 15 update, and play my Apple Music without any issues.

With the iPhone 13 Pro, I would plug it into the USB port, CarPlay would display when plugged in but crash as soon as I hit the play button to play music.

I also changed the equalizer (EQ) from “Late Night” to “Off” and it now works!!!!! Thrilled!!

Hi, we just had the same issue on the iPhone 13 pro max. We went into settings, under music, and turned off the EQ. It was in late night mode but we turned it off and it immediately worked fine. Before doing this, Apple car play would come up and operate fine until clicking the music and it would crash. Now everything works as it should.

Apparently they fixed a bug for Audio in CarPlay in 15.0.2

According to Apple:

This update includes bug fixes for your iPhone:

Photos saved to your library from Messages could be deleted after removing the associated thread or message
CarPlay may fail to open audio apps or disconnect during playback
