CarPlay Navigation and Turn / Camera issue

Geoffrey Schaller asked this question twice without resolution. I was following the thread, and today, I found the resolution to the issue. As a reminder:

I'd posted about this before, but the thread is locked without a resolution, so I'm posting again in hopes we can find a solution. Using my iPhone in my Honda Pilot for CarPlay, each time I activate the Lane Watch camera (such as making a right turn or merging to the right), CarPlay defaults back to Music and not Maps after turning the camera back off.

I am not the only person having this issue, and there's a full discussion (including a video of the issue) here:

Is there anyone from Apple that can help? Honda has told me to contact my local dealer, my local dealer told me to contact Honda corporate, and no one seems to be able to actually offer a solution.

So, the fix can be found here: https://www.piloteers.org/forums/114-2016-third-generation-pilot/129970-apple-ca rplay-behavior-after-side-camera-turned-…

To save you some reading, here's the workaround:

I have figured out correct sequence for guaranteed correct behavior for Honda Pilot 2017 Carplay issue where turn signal constantly brings back music even when actively using maps.

It boils down to how do you start Carplay. Apparently there are 2 ways to it.

1) Formal one - you connect iPhone while on Honda radio Home screen (hit the home button to get there before plugging in your phone). Then wait till green Carplay icon pops up in place of 'Smartphone connection' and then click on green Carplay icon to start it. Then you click on maps.

2) Automatic one (incorrect one) - you connect iphone while already on the No Device Connected screen on Pilot dash. Then when white carplay icon pops on iPhone, pressing home button on your phone. This too starts carplay.

Now 1) is right way and 2) is not. I have tested both options on my 2017 pilot EX and consistently I could reproduce issue when using 2) and didn't get any issue when using 1).

I can confirm this works for an iPhone XS running iOS 12. As a matter of fact, if you connect via Method 2, you can still unplug, hit the home button, connect, and go from there (Method 1). Once you have connected via Method 1, you can unplug and reconnect using either method and all works as it should as long as you don't turn off the car between connections.

Finally, we can drive without this annoyance!
