Waze and Apple CarPlay

I've got Apple Carplay in my car after the latest 18C update and all works ok (if a little slow) but Waze is worse than useless because when I search using the keyboard all I get is "No Results"! This happens no matter what I input, postcode, place name or city/street etc. Also when I press the microphone icon the window flashes up for an instant and then disappears so I have no time to ask for directions.

Anyone got the same sort of problems? I have uninstalled and reinstalled the App but still no good. I use an iPhone 8.

I don't know the answer to you problem but would like to ask if it's the 18C software that's slow or is it still as slow after the update.

Generally better since the update, but Apple Carplay can be a bit slow launching after plugging in phone.

Would my problem re Carplay be because of dodgy simcard? I presume it won't work without the simcard behaving itself? All LR cars from 1984

Yes it works on the iphone without plugging in. I've just removed the simcard and reinserted it and it now works! Is that just coincidence? All LR cars from 1984

Chalky, my apple carplay can be a little temperamental as well. Sometimes it takes quite a while to flash up. Mine is always USB connected.

Hi Jase

Apple Carplay is fine now, a little slow sometimes (it's as if the car and its systems needs to warm up!!) and I think I've figured out why Waze for example doesn't always connect fully (no voice control or report icons).

I've got a Blackvue webcam system and the iPhone sometimes connects to that wifi instead of the in-car simcard. When it connects properly everything is fine. Or, is that just coincidence??? All LR cars from 1984

Knew it wouldn't last!!!

Drove to London and back yesterday and the software for the top screen has gone walkabout!! No Waze, no home screen. It shows three mini-sized windows as picture below (sorry can't get the photo the right side up!!), no music, no Traffic on any satnav, including the default "Here" satnav. Couldn't even get the radio to work!!

The slightly good news is that I phoned the local dealer in Bristol and I actually got through to someone to talk to and it's booked in for Jan 10th. My local garage (if he had the LR equipment) would have looked at it this afternoon.... says all you need to know about LR service!!

I think LR need to have a board meeting in front of a mirror!! Censored

This may not help Chalky, but try pressing the home screen button when the reversing camera is active - i had all my home screen shortcuts stacked on top of each other with the screen not responding but got it back by doing this and deleted the rogue buttons, which fixed the problem. Alternatively, remember it is only a computer, so power down, wait and reboot. You never know!

Thanks Nubbin.

The only problem is the camera ain't working either!! Or at least it's intermittent.

The whole thing is as if the 18C update has run its course and is no longer working. It's actually worse than before the update! The radio is now working though, so that's a bonus on a £90k+ car Whistle

I've done the "iPhone thing" and switched it on and off (even did it halfway down Baker Street!!) but still the same. I think some of it is to do with signal, as for some reason I get 4G on my phone but not in the car. Tried numerous phones and the same, 4G is strong on the phone but nothing in the car.

Ah well, the engine goes ok, gears work, the wheels turn and the heater works, but then again, so do they all in my £700 Honda CRV knockabout shooting vehicle!! All LR cars from 1984

Hopefully you'll get the 18D update in January and all these things will be sorted out. there were a lot of problems with the F-Pace software which the 18C update sorted out - seems strange the same update is causing you problems. The nw update does seem to be pointed at smartphone inter-operability more than anything else.
