How to Access Maps Guides via CarPlay Interface?

Hello,

The purpose of CarPlay as I understand it is to provide core features of an app's functionality through the vehicle's display interface so that I don't have to fondle my phone when I'm behind the wheel. Considering this, why am I unable to access my Guides through Maps' CarPlay interface? Why is such a core part of the Maps app only available through my phone? I have not found a way using the CarPlay interface to access the way points I have stored in my guides other than by manually searching for them. If I'm lucky, and I've recently searched for them, I can find them in Destinations but this isn't always the case. I would really like to see an option in the CarPlay interface for viewing a list of the guides that I have set up. This is why I created them in the first place.

Regards,

Yes I find this concerning also. If you go to google maps on CarPlay you can easily acces your destinations and saved shortcuts. This with the constent gps fix failure issue makes Apple CarPlay unusable and a danger to work with. You would guess the whole purpose of carplay was too make navigating (both on the device and road) safer.

I recently uses Android Car and although I am no fan of android this experience was pleasant and with no issues at all.

please make apple CarPlay better.
