[Mike in ATL]

What does the Blue/light blue alert on Apple car play with tone mean?

 

[Bobby]

Not sure what you mean… take a photo of it.

Do you mean Amber alert?

HAHA--I can't take a photo of it because I'm driving and it is so random. A blue and light blue line goes across the bottom of the apple Carplay screen and makes a musical tone. It's not a text or email. I have no idea what it is. Sorry for the vagueness of my description.

Its Siri saying it's listening or responding to a request is what I would think you mean.

Ahhh. Thank you

Do you Alexa set up in the car? I thinks that’s Alexa, not Siri.

That’s Alexa. Siri is a multi colored ball.

That’s definitely Alexa, and you can turn it off in settings. It’s listening for the word “Alexa” constantly. So anything that sounds remotely like that will trigger it.

You can also keep it on and just turn off the trigger word.

Yes sorry it's Alexa as others have pointed out.
