Hi there evanw25,


Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. We understand that you'd like to turn off spoken direction in the Maps app, so we'd like to share a resource with you. Just to confirm, are you following the guidance from the "Turn spoken directions on or off" section of this article: Things you can do while following a route in Maps on iPhone? If so, Restart your iPhone. Sometimes restarting can fix minor issues. If restarting doesn't help go to Settings > General > CarPlay, then tap the car you've noticed this with. From there, select Forget This Car, then connect your iPhone to your car again.


Take care.

evanw25,


Thanks for the reply. Just to confirm, are you referring to tapping the button in CarPlay on the screen of your car? Have you had a chance to go to forget the car in Settings, then set up CarPlay again? There are a few additional steps you can try here: If you need help with CarPlay, including checking with the car's manufacturer to see if there's a firmware update available for the system.


All the best!

Specifically, I was referring to the ability of tapping the button in the upper left corner. That button no longer functions. That’s the way that I mute Siri via CarPlay. Nissan leaf 2019. I did restart the phone, which introduced another problem with regard to Map zooming. But after a second restart that cleared up. According to others on the web, this version of CarPlay seems that Apple should take another look. Prior to upgrade, it worked fine.
