Carplay and shortcuts with siri

Why does Siri say “I can’t do this while you’re driving” when I try to use a shortcut "Open garage door”. I have set up the short cut to work with siri and it does just not when plugged into carplay while the motor is running. Sort of defeats the purpose really.

Probably you have a DND driving Focus enabled

  • When Conected with Car's Bluetooth
  • Activate with CarPlay


DND's Automatic Activation innovatively responds to specific contexts, improving user engagement and well-being. In driving scenarios, it identifies motion through GPS, accelerometers, and Bluetooth to ensure safer driving by silencing distractions.
