Carplay in Honda not working with new IOS 11.2.5

My new car no longer recognizes my device as plugged in since I upgraded yesterday morning. So frustrating not to be able to use a feature I chose the car for. Will this be fixed or is there a way I can remove the update?

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 11.2.5

Hello there Ajchrishon,

It sounds like CarPlay is not working since you updated your phone. The following section of this article should help you get that back up and running:

Set up CarPlay with your iPhone


If CarPlay doesn't work like you expect, here’s what you can check. After each step, try using CarPlay again.

  1. Make sure that Siri is turned on.
  2. Restart your iPhone and your car. Depending on your car, you might see the CarPlay Home screen when you turn it on. If you don't, look for the CarPlay logo on your car’s display.
  3. If possible, connect your iPhone to a different USB port in your car.
  4. Try a different Lightning to USB cable. Make sure that the cable is certified.
  5. Update to the latest version of iOS.
  6. Check your car’s manual for help. You might need to install firmware updates for your stereo.

Same problem here with IPhone X and the 2018 Honda Accord. I reset to factory settings and it worked for a few days and now it’s back to not recognizing the phone being connected. Fortunately Bluetooth works but it’s not as good and no maps. I’m very disappointed that Honda and Apole can’t get their acts together and are blaming each other. The customer loses again.

I have a 2018 Buick Encore . I have an iPhone SE . I am using iOS version 10.3.3 . I'm afraid to update, because CARPLAY is working fine at this point . I understand that once you update to a newer version of iOS you can not go back to an older version . it dumbfounds me how the largest technology company cannot solve something that had worked perfectly in older versions . *** Apple!!!

A question to Honda Accord owners... was your car working perfectly until you updated to iOS version 11?

Yes the CarPlay was fine with my old IPhone and the 2018 Accord. When I upgraded to the IPhone X and the new Operating system, it ceased to work. I brought the car to Honda and they have no solutions. I have reset to factory default settings a few times. That will allow CarPlay to work for a few days until it inevitably doesnt recognize the device. So I’m back to Bluetooth again.

Hello Donald, Thanks for your input. Do you know what iOS version your older iPhone was using, and what model did you have? I wonder why Apple is so quite about this , I'd be hopping mad if I upgrade the iOS and loose compatabiltiy with my 2018 Buick Encore. I wonder why Apple is not addressing this, as i believe the incompatibility occurs in all updates beyond iOS 10.3.3
