CarPlay on IOS 17.4 not working properly

My wife’s iPhone is still working on 17.3, but mine after the upgrade to 17.4 is not. I can’t get sound control on steering wheel or infotainment knob control. I have already tried forgetting Bluetooth & CarPlay, and also reset the infotainment. I have a Camry 2023 with cable CarPlay. Any one knows a solution?

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 17

Me too. I have iphone 14 Pro Max and ever since I upgraded to 17.4, my wireless Carplay doesn't work at all. The phone pairs to the car fine, but CarPlay won't activate. Tried forgetting and re-pairing. Didn't work. Every time I try to disconnect and reconnect, I get a message telling me I have to authorize CarPlay in the car. I have a 2023 Chevy Tahoe.

Ok i figured out the fix for me. An apparently necessary carplay setting on my iphone, “Show notifications” was disabled. I was not familiar with this setting and have never touched so i didnt think of it earlier. As soon as i enabled that setting carplay worked properly.


maybe something reset that setting in an iphone update.


worth noting i also tried many other solutions from this forum which may or may not have contributed to it being fixed.

I tried resetting the infotainment system on my car and magically Apple CarPlay started working. I would advise anybody who is having this issue to give that a try. With a Chevy, you put your car in park while it is running, press the phone hangup button for at least 10 seconds. Then, turn the car off, open the door, close the door and restart the car.
