iOS 15.1.1 carplay paralyzes apps
I updated to 15.1.1 recently and anytime I connect my iPhone 12 to apple CarPlay or hands free Bluetooth in my vehicle it renders all of my apps completely unusable as though I have no signal- even when I do. I cannot play any music, connect to any apps or use safari. The only thing I am able to do is send/receive text messages and phone calls. A hard reset takes the phone back to normal- sometimes.
Any suggestions for a fix to this?!?
