Car Play with iPhone 13

My new car requires a usb plug-in style from the iphone to the USB port in order to use apple carplay. I was told I couldn’t use a usb charger chord with my new iPhone 13. Is this true? If so, is there an adapter? True with my computer as well, how do I plug my new iPhone 13 into my computer?! I have USB charging ports in my couch as well, this is so disappointing.

technology changes..

If you have lightning to USB A type cables from previous iPhones, you can use those.

Otherwise, just buy the cable you need. Adapters are more of a pain IMO

Lightning to USB Cable (1 m)

or

Lightning to USB Cable (2 m)


Or.. Anker is a great brand and makes these cables as well
