Apple Car Play and USB-A to USB-C Would like to know people’s experience with AppleCar Play when they upgrade their Apple iPhone. The newer iPhones are a USB-C connector and a standard USB-A to USB-C only seems to charge the device and not provide the data transfer? What is a resolution for this? It seems difficult to find a cable that you can be sure will do the job. Did Apple just simply dismiss all older CarPlay devices? Mine is 7 years old. I’ve heard that you need the right cable to enable the data as well as charge but is this a story about a Unicorn and a mythical cable ? Apple haven’t made it clear or helpful.

If your car supports CarPlay, any USB cable with data transfer should work.

Lightning to USB Cable (1 m) - Apple

Charge-only cables will not work.
