Carplay, Map direction has no sound

Hm, There's no sound or turn by turn voice direction using Apple Map, connecting my iPhone 6S+ with apple lighting cable to Honda CRV. Is it a bug ? I can hear music, Siri, messages & others BUT direction from the MAP. Annoying. Does it happen to any of you ? Honda CRV doesn't support car play with Bluetooth just USB cable. 🙏 Kforkona

null-OTHER, iOS 10.3.2, Carplay

Hi Kforkona,

I understand that you use your CarPlay with your iPhone using a USB connection, but you are unable to hear directions from Apple Maps. I'm happy to provide some help for this issue.

To add a detour to a trip, follow these steps:

  1. Swipe up on the menu bar while you're navigating.
  2. Select an option, like Gas Stations. Maps will show you a list of nearby suggestions.
  3. Tap User uploaded file. Maps will add the detour to your original route.
  4. When you’re ready, tap the blue banner at the top of the screen to resume your route.

To get detailed turn-by-turn directions, swipe up on the menu while you're navigating and tap Details. You can also see your trip overview and adjust your Navigation Voice settings from the same menu bar.

Selecting the output will determine where Navigation Voice will play the turn-by-turn directions . 1 If you’re using Maps connected to Bluetooth, like in your car, you can choose how to get these directions. Learn how to use Maps with Bluetooth.
