Apple Maps on Carplay

Why does Carplay not show turn by turn directions instead of the Overall route when using Apple Maps? The turn by turn directions show fine when using Google Maps or Waze but only the full route is shown with Apple Maps. A turn by turn display shows on my Apple Watch but the Carplay display should show this as well. Any answers would be appreciated.

Hi hjicke.


Thanks for following up. CarPlay should display turn by turn directions while also seeing the directions on your Apple Watch.


Let's try the steps below from: If you need help with CarPlay 


  1. "Go to Settings > General > CarPlay, tap your car, then tap Forget This Car. Then set up CarPlay again.
  2. Make sure that your CarPlay stereo is using the latest firmware from the car manufacturer. Check your car's manual for more information.


If you still have issues connecting to CarPlay, contact Apple Support."


Take care.

OK, this does not answer the question. Go back and read it again and you'll see that the problem is that CarPlay does announce turn by turn directions but it only SHOWS the full route, not a detailed, moving turn by turn like Google and Waze does. Could this be happening because I'm also wearing an Apple Watch that IS SHOWING a detailed turn by turn map?
