What was the app that allowed you to play youtube on the carplay deck? Thanks!

[avgaustin]

thank you for focusing on carplay so much, not many people really cover it as well as you do

[Soulcrusher]

You’re the only person I’ve seen that covers CarPlay so well

Another change that I noticed this morning:
when an alarm goes off, you now have the ability to close it through the car instead of having to awkwardly break out the iphone.

[BassManStrikes]

What about wireless carplay dropping connections randomly?

[HighAltitudeVibez]

Also fixed the touchscreen icons in Waze and Google maps for driving and reporting a broke down car or a hazard.

[MelvinAlc]

what is that 3r party device you are using with carplay please

When will the CarPlay come that I’ll see it on my other screen?

With the new Siri, well Atleast on my version of 18.1. When Siri asks if I want to reply. I don’t have to answer yes first. I just reply and Siri is smart enough to pick that up and she repeated it to me and ask if she should send it. I was pleasantly impressed by this and hope this stays in the final version and it’s not a glitch because I’m loving just replying to the messages without having to say yes first.

During beta 1 of 18.1 my Apple Intelligence ring would fully load freeze and disappeared. Just installed beta 2 can’t wait to see if that is fixed

Does that also mean you ca Shazam a song played on the radio when your iPhone is connected? Until now this is not working.

0:36 Could you test if the “recording while listening to media” feature works with Snapchat and instagram?

[hf]

It would be if they added weather icon like AA did with their update. At least temperature

[brunoanzanellostifelman]

What’s the app you use for watching youtube?

[arthurdardalis]

Very informative, what does the “Car” icon on the Home Screen do? Thank you

[brinda]

How to enable recording on camera feature on ? I can’t find it in settings

[shanefelgate]

Glitch found and reported in CarPlay, try it, play Pandora music, now go to notes or messages and hit the button to use Siri, music mutes on left side if car but continues on right side without pausing, what’s the fix

[edwardlove]

How do u get that battery icon up there ?

[Rickm]

If you have a phone with enough storage, now you can listen to tunes and use phone as a dash cam for short trips. Be amazed footage will get with a short trip. I’ve played with, it will not record the music, at least when using iTunes.

So my iPhone 13Pro max can’t handle intelligent?
