Not sure what you mean by “wit doesn’t work”. Apple CarPlay works fine with this unit. I have had this for about a week. Noticing two issues which can be a bit annoying but getting used to it: 1) while WhatsApp is present in Apple CarPlay, Siri shortcuts for example WhatsApp calling shortcuts do not work while Apple CarPlay is on (phone connected by wire). They work when the phone is connected to the unit via Bluetooth. 2) If Apple CarPlay is on and you get a call, if you accept the call via Apple CarPlay screen, it works fine but if you accept the call from the steering commands on the car (if your vehicle had Bluetooth calling via steering commands) the unit turns off and turns on again after the call is over. So getting used to not instinctively accepting the call with the steering commands. Thinking of getting it checked at Best Buy to see if settings can be adjusted.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It does have Apple CarPlay. You need the USB adapter from the back brought to the front and plug in your lightning cable into your phone and then it will connect CarPlay everything mirroring your phone.
