CarPlay is the worst in the 4th Gen

[svaughn76]

Constantly cutting out. When answering a call and then going back to Apple Music what was playing skips with me having to restart the radio every time.

Strange, because I use CarPlay every day and it is rock solid and never cuts out or skips songs.

I wonder why it is so different on your truck?

Do you have the Premium audio? Maybe my radio is a lemon. It’s just annoying. Maybe I’ll make an appointment with the dealership. Maybe something faulty regarding the Bluetooth connection in the radio.

I have the JBL sound system. Should at least see what the dealership has to say.

My truck was away from my phone for a week when it was at the detail shop and driving it home it cut out several times. But without me changing anything it has worked perfectly since that day. My wife has a Lexus SUV though and she has problems with CarPlay also.

First 8 months mine worked flawlessly, now starting to cut out quite frequently. JBL system, not sure what has changed?

Recent phone update maybe? I always wait a few weeks to update so Apple can work out occasional bugs.

I do have the iOS 18.3 update but feel like it was dong it on the last update as well.

iOS 18.3 is beta. #1 rule - beta = expect bugs…. Apple warns of that before downloading. Can’t make any complaint about how carplay works and then say your running a beta OS.

Don’t have a problem with it in my wife’s Lexus or the rental Jeep Grand Cherokee I am currently in.

Not sure what one has to do with the other. Guessing you don’t fully understand how beta OS’s work or don’t work with different chipsets. If you even read from Apple, they also warn, do not put beta software on your primary use devices. If you were to walk into the Apple Store and tell them you had a problem - any problem with your phone, #1 very first thing will be to remove the beta software first before we diagnose anything. ANY software person will say the same, make sure your updated with most recent software, and not running beta software before we begin to diagnose anything else.

Delete your vehicle in CarPlay and in the Toyota software. And start over.
