Ever wondered how map apps like Apple Maps utilize crowd-sourced information to keep you informed on the road? From accidents to speed traps and even fog, local users contribute real-time updates that benefit everyone on the route with visual icons and timely warnings, ultimately enhancing safety for all.
However, the effectiveness of these updates hinges on their immediacy. To make the most of this feature, reporting incidents while driving safely from your dashboard is crucial. While Apple Maps offers this functionality through CarPlay, navigating these reporting features efficiently requires a bit of know-how.
Our comprehensive guide is here to help you master these reporting features and discover the best shortcuts, ensuring you can contribute to a safer driving experience seamlessly. Stay informed, stay safe with Apple Maps and CarPlay!

Apple on Tuesday released beta 4 of the iOS 17.4 update and it has a new feature to try out if you have the correct car. According to the developer release notes, CarPlay with Apple Maps support has been updated:
In iOS 17.4, with supported CarPlay vehicles, Apple Maps will present a new instrument cluster experience with information about upcoming maneuvers. Users will be able to swap the desired display type between the main and instrument cluster screen by tapping the map configuration button on the upper right of the Maps main screen.
Since this feature works “between the main and instrument cluster screen,” it appears that it’s for CarPlay implementations that use two screens. Most cars use only the main screen located in the center of the car console for CarPlay. Apple added the ability for CarPlay to work on the instrument cluster screen and display maneuver cards in iOS 13.
At WWDC in 2022, Apple previewed “the next generation of CarPlay,” a yet-to-be-released version of CarPlay that completely takes over the dashboard. Porsche has previewed next-gen CarPlay, and the first cars with the software are supposed to ship this year, but no official announcements have been made. The new CarPlay feature in the iOS 17.4 beta 4 is separate from next-gen CarPlay.
You can learn more about the in-auto experience in our CarPlay FAQ.
Since the infotainment system is an increasingly important part of choosing a car, we are sure you want CarPlay to run as smoothly as possible. Whether it’s your first time owning a vehicle with CarPlay or you’re a long-time user looking for new tips, we want to share some of our favorite Apple CarPlay tricks you probably don’t know about.
]]>Even though we’re still waiting patiently for Apple to build its own car, it probably already dominates your car’s infotainment system with its CarPlay software.
Since the infotainment system is an increasingly important part of choosing a car, we are sure you want CarPlay to run as smoothly as possible. Whether it’s your first time owning a vehicle with CarPlay or you’re a long-time user looking for new tips, we want to share some of our favorite Apple CarPlay tricks you probably don’t know about.
There are several ways to let someone track your journey using your iPhone, including with CarPlay. Once you start a trip with Apple Maps or Google Maps in your car, you can share your ETA at the bottom of the screen. Apple will suggest a few names from your list of contacts, and you can share them using a variety of messaging apps.
On iOS 17, Apple lets you collaborate with someone else’s Apple Music queue using SharePlay. Once you start playing a song, someone else can tap the SharePlay icon, grab their phone, scan a QR code, and add songs to the queue. This is especially useful so you don’t need to keep unlocking your iPhone, and even if the person doesn’t have an Apple Music subscription, they can keep adding songs as long as they have the Music app downloaded.
Another useful Apple CarPlay trick we love is the ability to customize the wallpaper. With every new CarPlay update, Apple adds more backgrounds. In the Settings app in CarPlay, select Wallpaper and choose the one that you like the most. Don’t forget to check back after any major software update, as more options could be available.
You probably already know about the Focus Mode feature that debuted in iOS 15. What you might not know is that you can create a Driving Focus Mode. Apple already offers a pre-made mode, but I suggest you customize it.
By going to Settings, then Focus, and tapping on Driving, you can decide who can message you while driving. You can also improve the experience by selecting a customizable iPhone Lock Screen and Apple Watch watch face.
This focus mode can be automatically turned on once you launch CarPlay, which is not only very handy but also much more secure.
This is one of those hidden (and handy) tricks you’ll need eventually. If you forgot where you parked your car, don’t worry, CarPlay is your best friend. Every time you unplug your iPhone from CarPlay, it shows a marker on Apple Maps and Google Maps. That way, you can backtrack to where you parked and not worry about depending on your faulty memory.
Are you finding it hard to locate an EV charging station near you? Search for EV Chargers on the Apple Maps Search bar, and you will see a map with the nearest charging stations. Every electric vehicle owner will end up taking advantage of this at some point.
Did you know you can add and remove CarPlay apps? This trick is easy to miss, but knowing how it works is important. In your iPhone’s Settings app, go to General, then CarPlay. From there, you can select your car and customize your experience by adding or removing apps. You can even choose which app appears first, so it’s easier to find what you want while driving.
Note: You can’t delete Phone, Music, Messages, or Now Playing, but you can move them.
Finally, the last CarPlay trick is for those who want to share their displays. To take a screenshot of your CarPlay screen, connect your iPhone and then press the volume up and lock button simultaneously. That will take a screenshot of your iPhone screen and CarPlay screen.
]]>Apple changed the charging port from Lightning to USB-C with the iPhone 15. A USB-C charging cable comes in the box, but upgraders may need to purchase a separate cable to continue using CarPlay.
That’s because many cars rely on a USB-A port to enable CarPlay. Wireless CarPlay adapters offer a way out of the wired experience, but charging while driving is also important.
Unfortunately, Apple didn’t make a first-party USB-A to USB-C cable for this situation. Instead, the company sells a $29 USB-C to Lightning adapter as its official solution.
Even though Apple doesn’t sell one, USB-A to USB-C cables are easy to find. However, we also think it’s important to stick with brands you know. It’s your car, after all, so you don’t want anything that could be a fire risk.
The hard part about planning ahead in this situation is that not all USB-A to USB-C cables support data transfer. This has been the case with USB-A to Lightning cables as well, but charge-only USB-A to USB-C cables are more common.
These are some picks from reliable brands that should keep CarPlay up and running on day one.
Another option is adapting your car’s USB-A port to USB-C, but we would be hesitant about leaving just any dongle connected to the car. Satechi does make a USB-A to USB-C port adapter for $6.99, but we are not confident that CarPlay will work without testing.
Alternatively, you could drop $30 on Apple’s USB-C to Lightning adapter and use the cable you already have, but that won’t be the only way to use CarPlay.
]]>Imagine that you’re headed to a relaxed weekend with your family. You’re driving towards the mountains. Google Maps turns blank midway. Above all, the Apple CarPlay you relied on gave up when you needed it the most. Well, if your Google Maps shows a blank screen on CarPlay, it could be irritating. Don’t worry. We will show you how to fix this issue. Let’s begin.
The functioning of Google Maps with your Apple CarPlay is essential for a smooth driving experience. If your Google Maps is turning blank, here are some reasons:
It can get frustrating if your Google Maps shows a blank screen on CarPlay. This is especially true if you’re running late for some urgent work or if the issue has been persistent for a long time. Fret not; you can fix the issue with the following tricks.
Lets say you’re driving somewhere. You establish a connection with Apple CarPlay. There is no luck when you try to open Google Maps for directions. What now? Find a safe spot, pull over, and restart your car. Once restarted, try opening Google Maps to check if it displays the directions. If the application works smoothly, you’ve fixed it. Otherwise, carry on reading to find a solution.
If restarting didn’t help, try shutting the Google Maps app on your iPhone. Closing apps generally helps when an application is unresponsive.
So, to mitigate the possibility of Google Maps glitching, close the app. You can then relaunch it to check if it is working. Here’s how to close Google Maps on your iPhone.
On your home screen, swipe up to launch the recent apps section. Further, once you locate Google Maps, swipe up again to close the app.
Clearing application data for Google Maps has worked wonders when the app displayed a blank screen. Notably, clearing app data for an app gives it a fresh start. In other words, any personal settings or data saved would be removed.
So, the application would be brought to its default settings. If you’re facing issues with Google Maps on your CarPlay, here’s how to solve it.
Step 1: Open Google Maps on your iPhone. Tap on your photo on the top. Further, select Settings in the pop-up.
Step 2: Scroll down to locate and choose ‘About, terms & privacy’. Then, opt for Clear application data.
An updated app is a bug-free app. If Google Maps is running an older version, it may cause blank screen issues while running it on CarPlay.
To remove the bugs that have engulfed your Google Maps app, update it. So, open the App Store. Press on your image. Then, scroll to locate Google Maps and select the Update button beside the app.
If Google Maps is not working with CarPlay, there could be connectivity issues between your iPhone and CarPlay. So, we suggest you first disconnect and establish a fresh connection between them. That way, the new connection should fix any existing connectivity issues. Here’s how to disconnect with CarPlay.
Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone > General > CarPlay.
Step 2: Now, tap on the car with which you’re facing the problem. Then, select Forget This Car.
This removes your connection with Apple CarPlay. Now, repeat Step 1 and follow the on-screen instructions to pair Apple CarPlay with your iPhone.
Location is a prerequisite to running a navigation application such as Google Maps. If your Google Maps application glitches on Apple CarPlay, check if you’ve granted location permissions to the app. Here’s how you can do so.
Step 1: Open Settings on your iPhone. Further, scroll down and tap on Google Maps. Then, opt for Location.
Step 2: Select Always under the Allow location access tab.
]]>Imagine being on the road and having to deal with unexpected weather conditions such as rain or snow. You might feel anxious without knowing the current weather conditions. That's where Apple CarPlay can come in handy. With the apps we're going to introduce, you can get real-time weather updates on your car dashboard. In this article, we're going to introduce you to two of the best apps for getting weather updates while you're driving.
The first application we suggest is "Weather Live". This app is primarily designed for travel and allows you to view temperatures, weather conditions, radar maps and weather alerts along your route. The app has a free version with basic functionality, while the Pro version offers advanced features for a monthly subscription fee. Once you've installed the app, simply plug your CarPlay-enabled iPhone into your car and you'll be ready to go with real-time weather updates for your journey.
Our second suggestion is "MyRadar". This application offers real-time radar views and provides current precipitation levels, wind speeds, hyperlocal weather forecasts and rain alerts. MyRadar also offers different display modes, weather layer customization and the option to track current position or remain fixed in one location. Some of MyRadar's features are available free of charge, but you can choose to remove ads and access advanced features for an annual fee.
To take advantage of these two apps, it's important that you have a CarPlay-compatible car radio. After installing the app on your iPhone, simply connect your iPhone to your car's CarPlay-compatible car radio, and the app will appear on your dashboard. So you can enjoy both weather apps in real time while you're driving.
By using apps like "Live Weather" and "MyRadar", you can get accurate, real-time weather information while you drive with Apple CarPlay. These apps let you get the current weather conditions for your route or current location. Enjoy safe travels and avoid unpleasant surprises with real-time weather updates!
Aston Martin and Porsche today previewed the first vehicle dashboards with support for Apple's next-generation CarPlay experience, which launches in 2024, according to a Car and Driver report spotted by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
Aston Martin confirmed that it will release its first vehicles with next-generation CarPlay in 2024, including an updated DB12 sports car, but it's unclear exactly when in will precisely happen. Porsche did not provide a timeframe or reveal any details.
Apple first previewed the next-generation CarPlay experience in June 2022, promising deeper integration with the instrument cluster and climate controls, support for multiple displays across the dashboard, a dedicated FM radio app, widgets, and more.
The next-generation CarPlay interface can be tailored to each specific vehicle model and automaker's brand identity, as pictured below.
Aston Martin previewed CarPlay integration with the instrument cluster and climate controls:
Porsche showed off a custom elongated CarPlay interface on the central screen, along with widgets for apps like Calendar, Music, and Weather on a second display:
With next-generation CarPlay, a connected iPhone will provide app-related data, while the vehicle will provide driving-specific data and info like tire pressure. Apple said the connected iPhone will not store or track this vehicle information.
When first unveiling next-generation CarPlay last year, Apple said committed automakers included Acura, Audi, Ford, Honda, Infiniti, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Polestar, Porsche, Renault, and Volvo. Beyond the addition of Aston Martin, it's unclear if this list has changed since that initial announcement.
Here we have recapped five key features to expect from next-generation CarPlay, as previewed by Apple last year.
The new CarPlay experience will provide integration with a vehicle's instrument cluster, including the speedometer, tachometer, odometer, fuel gauge, engine temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge, and more. Apple says drivers will be able to choose from several gauge cluster designs and layouts, including brand‑specific options.
You'll be able to access your vehicle's climate controls directly within the new version of CarPlay, allowing you to adjust the temperature of the A/C or heat, fan speed, heated seats, heated steering wheel, and other options.
The next-gen version of CarPlay will be able to appear across all of the displays in a vehicle, providing a consistent experience across the infotainment system, instrument cluster, and any additional screens on the dashboard. Apple says CarPlay will be tailored to each new vehicle model to accommodate unique screen shapes and layouts.
Widgets will be a key part of the new CarPlay experience, offering at-a-glance information such as trip duration, fuel economy, distance traveled, calendar events, weather, phone calls, the status of a HomeKit-enabled garage door, and more. You will also be able to view and scroll through the widgets within the instrument cluster.
The new version of CarPlay will include an all-new Radio app that allows you to easily control the FM radio in your vehicle, such as to change the station. This was a long requested feature and it is nice to see that Apple is listening.

If you own a Carplay-enabled car, you may have used this feature by connecting it directly to your iPhone via a USB cable. However, did you know that Carplay can also be used in wireless mode? In this article, we'll look at the advantages of Carplay in wireless mode compared to using Carplay with a USB cable.
One of the main advantages of Carplay in wireless mode is the freedom of movement it offers. With no cables to constrain you, you can place your phone anywhere in the car and use it as a source of music or navigation. This can be particularly useful if you need to charge your iPhone at the same time, as you can use a wireless charger to keep your phone charged without having to connect it. For example, all our Mercedes Carplay modules work wirelessly with us!
By using Carplay in wireless mode, you can get rid of that USB cable that's always lying around the car and can be a source of clutter. Instead, you can use your phone as you normally would, but with the Carplay interface, which is easier to use in the car.
Wireless connection is generally faster and easier than cable connection. You can connect your iPhone to your car in seconds, without having to search for a cable and plug it in. This can save you a lot of time and effort, especially if you need to connect often.
Some people have reported an improvement in sound quality when using Carplay in wireless mode compared to using Carplay with a USB cable. This may be due to the fact that wireless transmission provides better audio quality than a USB cable.
By using Carplay in wireless mode, you reduce the risk of accidents or distractions by avoiding the need to plug in the USB cable and handle it while driving. You can keep your phone in your pocket or on your car's phone holder and use it as you normally would without having to plug it in.
As you can see, there are many advantages to using Carplay wirelessly rather than with a cable. While audio quality may vary between car and phone models, the quick and easy connection and freedom of movement you get from using Carplay wirelessly is well worth it. If your car has the original wired Apple Carplay, you can plug in our wireless Carplay adapter to make it finally wireless. Try it out now and enjoy safe and easy driving.
