  • How do you connect your iPhone to your Mac. There are some difficulties with mixing wifi and usb and network sharing.

  • I am also getting "Accessory is not Supported". I tried different iPhones (8, XS Max, 5S), cables (USB A and USB C), rebooted all devices. No luck.

"CarPlay-App-Programming-Guide.pdf" has been updated to "June 7, 2022".

https://developer.apple.com/carplay/documentation/CarPlay-App-Programming-Guide.pdf P15 (Page 14 of 53)

Doesn't it work even if I follow the procedure of "CarPlay Simulator"?
