Apple Car Play (MAPS) not Updating Home Location

Before, whenever I got into the car and displayed MAPS, it would automatically show me the time and the route to get to my home. Ever since I moved, I changed my HOME address under my contact card, and it is still taking me to my old address (except it doesn't say "Home", it just gives the address which is kind of stupid)!


I know that this has to do with Significant Locations, but I'm not sure how to fix this without turning off Significant Locations. Here is an image. Help!

(If it helps, the car is a 2021 KIA SOUL)

Hi PepsiSardines,


It sounds like the Maps App is using your old location. We're glad you've joined us in Apple Support Communities. Let's see if this helps.


Follow the steps in Delete significant locations on iPhone and delete the location there. Because CarPlay and Maps use the data from your iPhone you'll want to remove the information from your iPhone. 


If the issue continues, let's restart your iPhone. A restart is a great step when experiencing unexpected behavior. Here's how to Restart your iPhone


If the issue remains after following those steps, let us know what steps you had a chance to try from above. 


We hope that helps with your question and take care!
