Pixelated screen using Apple CarPlay

This is not a new topic here, as far as I see, I think it is the right thing to open this discussion for those of you having new generation cars from the VW group:

The Apple CarPlay problems are not only on Honda models. My Skoda Octavia 4 (VW MIB3 Infotainment System) has the same problem.

When using navigation apps (Waze, Apple Maps, Google Maps) on both my iPhone 11 Pro Max and iPhone 7, after a while, the navigation part of the screen is getting blurry.

Both iPhones have the newest updates, the car also. Restarting the iPhones or the car infotainment system doesn’t help.

You can refresh the blurred screen by changing shortly to a car menu and then back to Apple CarPlay. This holds for a while (5-10 Minutes) and then you go again.

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 16

The problems are more apparent in Google Maps but on Apple Maps and even Spotify the problem occurs. CarPlay overall gets unresponsive and you even cannot pick up or make calls.

I can confirm that it is useless, Waze has the same issues even without google maps

Nov 14, 2022 4:45 AM in response to Eldar_89

Yes, but Waze is from Google and uses the same "base". Try to deactivate Google Maps and Waze.

Yes, it may sound like a temporary solution, but not a big deal.

Your car service is not responsible for the Carplay, your infotainment system works fine with Android, it is a matter of the Apple Corporation :)

Ive done everything, I called the support like 4 times. I’ve reset my phone to factory settings. I tried wireless. Wired. Nothing. Same problem. This is a dealbreaker. Just saying.
