Q: CarPlay problems after iOS 10 Update

Ever since iOS 10 my CarPlay functions have been very glitchy, mostly when I got navigation going on at the same time. Here's a few things I encounter:

  • Music freezes (can't change songs, can't tap into the app if I tap out of it, icon zooms in once it gets past freezing)
  • Siri mutes herself when reading texts (only seems to happen when I listen to a text straight from a notification
  • CarPlay itself randomly disconnects for a couple seconds at a time (although it MAY be my wire but it has yet to show any tears)

Also some other pet peeves from BEFORE iOS 10 that are still happening now with Music:

  • Some radio station genres found in Apple Music on iPhone/iPad/Mac are not listed in CarPlay

Anyone else w/ CarPlay suffering from these problems?

iPhone 6s, iOS 10

    same issue here. I thought it was the car itself. Bluetooth works fine no lag for skipping songs no app crashing it ***** cause i need navigation for part time job and it's a night mare trying to listen to music.

    My CarPlay doesn't work at all now since installing iOS 10 - my car does not even recognize my phone has been installed/connected.

    Yep, 2016 Honda Civic. I keep getting error that the device does not support CarPlay. I am going back to iOS 9.3.5 while I still have the chance.

    I get all the playlists in alphabetical order when connected to CarPlay since I upgraded to iOS 10.

    VW App-Connect system.

    Well, amazingly - mine now works!!  I'm using a 6 plus paired to Apple car play in a '17 Audi A4.  I originally tried rebooting my phone, updating the car software, changing cables along with plugging & unplugging multiple times without success.  I also stopped & started the car as well.  Went back to the car prepared to call and speak to an Audi technologist and it immediately fired up once connected.  I have absolutely no idea why, so I'm totally baffled - but glad it's working again...just wish I understood why

    Same problem in my '16 Civic. Sometimes works, sometimes not. Loses connection, changed cords, only thing that sometimes helps is resetting the phone. And now sometimes it freezes the whole phone. Definitely a software problem.

    I noticed that my phone says the accessory is not recognized.

     

    I don't believe it is the cable since I have changed many times always using Apple ones.

    + 1 with issues with the 2016 Civic.

     

    I rarely get the "device not supported" issue but I get the "No device connected" error constantly and typically two (2) minutes after I connect my iPhone 6+.  The two minutes is VERY consistent.  Tried all kinds of things to troubleshoot this, including multiple cables.  Very frustrating.

     

    A total restart of my iPhone almost always seems to fix the problem.  If I restart my iPhone before I get in the car it always works.  A less reliable fix is to hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears and then press the Home button until the home screen reappears.

    EXACTLY this. Within two minutes, I lose connection to the device and the home screen just shows 'smartphone connection' instead of 'CarPlay.' And the power button/home button is what you use to force close an app. Something is interfering with the CarPlay interface, and there's no way I'm going to reset my phone every time I get in the car. Something's definitely going on here. Cables don't make a difference (I'm even using the one that came with my 7) - something software is causing a problem. C'mon, Apple - figure it out!

    2016 Civic here.

     

    Doesn't like when the phone is plugged in before I turn on the car. Almost inevitably will say it doesn't recognize my device (iPhone 6+).

     

    The alphabetical order of playlists thing might be most enraging. Way too many playlists to be hunting around and trying to remember what I titled something. Chronological is essential. Really hoping this is very brief.

    Since the iOS 10.1 update I have had significant connection issues with CarPlay in my 2016 Honda Civic. Sometimes when you connect you get a message that it is not a compatible device. Most of the time it says that it is connecting and then says no connection found. I have rebooted the car audio system and done a hard reset on my phone. Occasionally, I can get a connection but in the middle of maps or music it just disconnects requiring a reset of everything again. I had no issues prior to the iOS 10 upgrade (iOS 9.3.5). I also deleted the car from my phone (CarPlay) and the phone from the car (CarPlay) and "re-paired" it, same results. My wife's phone does the exact same thing. I have also replaced the lightning cable with a brand new "out of the box" official Apple cable with no improvement. Is there a way to update CarPlay in the car? Is there something that I am missing?

    This.  If i plug the phone in after i turn the civic on, no issues.  Totally agree with the ordering of playlists!

     

    I also have a 6+
