CarPlay Friday came true! hallelujah!
CarPlay is here! - Megathread
- Thread starter Wolfman
- Start date
what about Android Auto?
I suspect that you'll have to unpair BT and repair ... or maybe the option can be enabled from an already paired phone. May be just best to start from scratch.
Completely relaxed. My car has been in the service center for 10 days to replace a broken LiDAR sensor. Sending out an email, before pushing the release is a bit wonky and will lead to unnecessary burden on the CS reps. Perhaps a blurb in the email about a staged release would have gone a long way to avoiding the confusion? IMHO, the title APPLE CARPLAY OVER-THE-AIR UPDATE IS HERE is a bit misleading. As they say, timing is everything and I just happened to be on the phone with them for unrelated items when I saw the email. Not my first rodeo.

The instructions explain how to enable CarPlay on a paired phone.
I was expecting both Android Auto & CarPlay. Will Android Auto now require the same process of evaluation and certification before release?Delighted to see the excitement here. The team has been working really hard to make this happen. But, as noted above, the deployment to the entire fleet will likely take a few days. While I appreciate the enthusiasm, Customer Service cannot expedite the process. The best thing to do is give it a couple of days. Good things come to those who wait.
Given that Lucid's UI is based off of Android OS, One would think it would be pretty easy to implement.
Fellow owners: please do not call customer service to push this update. They are getting flooded. Everybody will get this update within the next few days. Please relax and wait until your car receives the notice. Thank you from your moderator team and the Lucid folks.
One thing I've learned being a software developer is that the things you think are easy almost never are. And other things you thought would be a nightmare end up being easy. Go figure.

People don't read the finer details. So blubs wouldn't help much.
I do agree that sending this email a few days from now would make more sense. That's what Apple tends to do, and it works well.

Please thank the engineers for us and let them know that we see them. No CarPlay until Friday!Delighted to see the excitement here. The team has been working really hard to make this happen.

Apple actually does allow EV routing with SOC. I guess we will see if it is implemented with CarPlay.

He's talking about through CarPlay. Additional native apps would be a welcome addition.
Curious about this one.
