Dont bother, it sucks. Period. Until apple gives us basic functions it's not worth it.

It's working fine for me and my car... Other than tune-in radio chose right then to no longer support CarPlay or so I've been told

Car play was one of the things I was most looking forward to when I picked up my car today. I have to say I was really sorely disappointed. It is so buggy and just outright terrible with the ios10. Ended up just using Bluetooth, and I am an apple fan (watch, phone, tablet, tv, computer etc)

it's trash and half-assed. It has the potential to be THE ultimate car app, with just a few minor tweaks. But, nope. Apple thinks their way is "safer" and better ..

Everyone is saying it sucks, but no one answered op. Is there something that needs to be done on the car side to update car play?

I just got the iPhone 7 Plus with ios10 and nothing is out of the ordinary. I can still use Spotifi and Apple Maps as before.

iPhone 6 with iOS 10, CarPlay is working fine for me. Didn't have to update anything in the Camaro.

I don't know why people complain about CarPlay. I have music, navigation, phone, and text, all integrated into my car's center screen, and has worked as good/better than any car manufacturer's software.

What else do people want CarPlay to do that you absolutely NEED to have while you're driving? I'm seriously asking, outside the four functions I mentioned above, I don't know what else is necessary WHILE DRIVING.

I agree. The voice to text is amazing in my opinion. If I could voice to email, it would be perfect for my needs.

Being able to use Waze would be nice.

Opening up the ability for 3rd party Nav apps, I think that's fair. Although since Waze is owned by Google it'll never see the light of CarPlay.

I like InRoute myself. Able to tweak your own routes. I'd love to have this native to CarPlay but with the latest iOS update Apple Maps now has highway and toll route avoidance, which I love.

I have an Iphone 6 updated to IOS 10. Works fine for me with no issues. There is nothing you need to update on the Camaro. I also have a Droid Turbo that works well with Android Auto. To be honest I like Andorid Auto better than Apple Car play. Maybe Apple will provide more features in the future?

I agree...I like Apple CarPlay but Waze support would be nice. Waze is owned by Google so I hold little hope to ever be able to use it through CarPlay.
