Issue Connecting to Apple CarPlay

[LauraK]

Hi everyone,

I have a 2018 X-play that I jus got. I'm trying to connect to carplay but when I plug in via USB this comes up. I don't have a voice command button beside my screen. Does anyone know which app it is referring to? My phone isn't prompted in any way.

Thanks!

Car play doesn't usually rely on an app per say, what ios version have you got on your iPhone?

Sounds like you have an early 2018 X-play that may not be CarPlay compatible, only MirrorLink.

See What is Mirrorlink? where it says "MirrorLink’s software only works with smartphones running the Android operating system."

The facelifted Aygo went on sale in May 2018. So your car could be a pre facelift model, which won't have Android Auto/Apple Carplay.

Not all versions of the post facelift Aygo had Apple Carplay/Android Auto, and as your multimedia unit hasn't got the voice button, it won't have smartphone integration - so no Apple Carplay/Android Auto.

Thanks everyone! The car was bought in July 2018 so looks like its the pre face lift! Thanks for your help
