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

This is a software issue for sure, bcoz it is happening almost in every brand and model. In parking, your map is not running, and this is why there are no problems.

The point is that it is a VW Software issue/bug.

If i connect I use Apple CarPlay with my son’s FIAT PANDA the issue does not presents.

If you read previous comments, you will find cars with different brands relating to this problem I have had this issue on my Chevrolet 2019 since my last iOS 16 update

Nov 28, 2022 5:30 AM in response to Eldar_89

So it's for sure a IOS16 bug.

Is Apple reacting in some way?

This is what Apple does, forcing us to use maps instead of Google, not cool if that is true, google is still the best

I had switched to Apple Maps for the last few weeks in my 2018 Sienna because of the lagging/pixelation issues, but I tried Google Maps tonight and it worked! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
