CarPlay iOS17 not working

No it hasn’t, 17.2 update still has done nothing to make Siri comparable with car play. It cannot just be WhatsApp as iMessage also does not work. When trying to use Siri in CarPlay he repeats himself then cuts off. Therefore it is an Apple problem but no attempt to fix it!!!!

Mine stopped connecting 2 updates ago. Only way to connect is either restart the phone or open General>CarPlay>select vehicle>toggle bluetooth off then back on. Connects right up. Using a cable will work but is copout answer from Apple and their so called experts.

I tried every thing I even erased my phone and the iCloud lost all my photo and format the car removed the phone from the car and connected again I change 4 or 5 cables , my phone my daughter is phone or even my husband phone suddenly all of them are not connecting only my son phone the Samsung is working perfectly so please update the iOS or remove it and let us go to the old iOS

thanks

Hello! I think I have the same multimedia on a Seat Ateca 2020 (also a VW). CarPlay worked fine until this morning, after which the multimedia began to write a message stating that this device cannot be used as a source and CarPlay is disabled. In this case, power flows through the wire, the VT works. I rebooted the media, turned off the phone and the car - nothing changed. If you connect a carplay box (a device for wireless connection), then in its settings you can see that the device does not understand the carplay version on my phone. I think this happened due to the new iOS update, since the problem coincided closely with the release of the update.

Hey, I had the same issue on my ‘24 Denali. Updated to 17.2 and it would NOT work. Tried all the normal stuff and still wouldn’t work.

I finally had success. Unfortunately I did two things at once and don’t know which fixed it.

deleted my vehicle using the “forget” option in CarPlay (on the phone). Then I reset my wireless network settings. The later was a bit of a pain, but far less painful than resetting the entire phone and restoring.

Again, I’m not sure which was the cure, but it is working now. Good luck!

3 different vehicles and two different modes and they all fail to work using every fix available or mentioned on the internet. This is an iOS 17 problem. My wife's phone which is still on iOS 16 still works.

I have a 2023 Jeep compass and ever since the 17.2 update, not only can I not hear Siri she’s not reading out loud text messages, she’s not recognizing my voice controls so I’m trying to search a song on Spotify and I had to disconnect my device remove it deleted off my car, disable CarPlay and now it’s actually holding a charge. I was connecting it from USB-C inside the vehicle to the phone and it would charge and stop and charge and stop every two seconds so there’s definitely something going on because it’s treating my voice command like it’s a phone call and it’s muting everything.

I doubt this because the cable works fine with my 7+. Issue is what iPhone 13 ProMax ever since iOS 17 was installed. My specific problem is it attempts to make a connection several times before ultimately connecting. Today Apple had me disable--not just turn off--my VPN. And presto, CarPlay made an immediate secure connection.

On a VW. With ios 17.2, carplay wld not run saying i had to enable Siri (nowhere to do this under Siri&Sear). Rebooted infotainment, removed car from carplay and bluetooth; to no avail. Then went to Accessibility - Siri. Toggled a few buttons. Now works !

Thanks gnesterenko - I had a new iPhone on 17.2 and a new cable. Reset everything, still didn’t work. Tried another new cable, and hey tried another new cable and ‘Hay Presto’ CarPlay Works! So you’re 100% right, some cables just won’t work.

I have a 2017 Lexus and now I needed to utilize Siri to text via the phone call option. I don’t have CarPlay on this vehicle so this was my only option- yet I’m hating having Siri on constantly!! She autocorrects my texts and I can’t figure out how to stop that without disconnecting it.

I tried an Apple USB-C cord and flip the polarity multiple times, still didn’t work.

I suspect Apple created a security patch and compromised how CarPlay connects. Obviously there is no setting to change as we would have found it by now.

For all those who still have the issue I managed to solve it by doing a factory reset (not just reboot) in my car's unit and deleting the car from the iPhone, mine is and aftermarket android unit for BMW 530i so I went into settings and looked for factory reset it deletes all config and paired devices (it should be a similar option for everyone but how to find it would depend of your car's brand or model) then I delete DE car from carplay and also from Bluetooth devices on my iPhone (14 pro IOS 17.2) now with everything deleted when I pair the iPhone with my car it finally gets the popup asking for permisions to use carplay just select allow and now my carplay finally works again, hope this work for some of you I was stuck with "accessory not supported" for quite some time too, good luck.

Me too! I have a 2019 Honda and have called Apple support several times. My previous phone(an) worked fine. They have no idea what's wrong and they act like they have never heard about this. I get passed around, calls get disconnected, etc. Unbelievable and disappointing.

That's because if it's due to your USB-C cable, they can't do anything about it.

Make sure your cable is a data rated USB-C cable before anything else.

Then make sure you delete your phone from your car and your car from your phone - reset your car's head unit to factory defaults if you've the ability and it's not too big a hassle.

Many have found a good cable in conjunction with creating an all new pairing does the trick.
