Apple CarPlay Not Working in iOS 18.0

I am using iPhone 13 and recently I have updated to iOS 18.0. Since that day, maps are showing blank on the car when I connect through the Apple CarPlay, and a message is displayed after a few minutes on the car screen stating the location information is not available. When I start the car immediately maps are turning to blank on the car display.


iPhone 13, iOS 18

What exactly is the issue you are experiencing with CarPlay? Since you haven't provided specific details about the problem, I recommend trying to reestablish a fresh connection, as this resolves the issue most of the time. Also, ensure that CarPlay is allowed under Content & Privacy Restrictions in your settings. Additionally, you can check out this resource that discusses CarPlay issues: 9 Ways to Fix Apple CarPlay Not Working. It might offer some solutions that apply to your situation. Hope this helps

Sound problem in carplay after iOS 18 update, when music is played, the iPhone screen turns on for some reason, the quality of the music becomes like the sound of the radio, and when the screen is turned off, the music stops. I tested the ios 17 version, the sound is clear and good like before, after the 18 update, there was a problem and I can't connect with the cable, I'm connected with bluetooth, there's no problem with the cable, I'm waiting for your answer. Thanks

You can use the Reset settings option as a last resort when the other suggestions don’t work for you, and I think it’s the best approach to save yourself from having to modify all your settings again. Before that, you can try forgetting and reconnecting your iPhone to CarPlay, and also try a force restart Force restart iPhone – Apple Support (US).

Also having problems - I have the new iPhone 16 Pro Max and Car Play in my 2023 Mini Countryman. Every time I leave the car I have to start all over again and forget the car and re-connect it like new. I get in and out of my car multiple times a day and it’s making me want to chuck this phone out the window. I keep praying for a software update that fixes it.
