Here are the vehicles and receivers with Apple CarPlay announced in 2018 & 2019
I'm going to guess that your "paternalistic" problem is a problem with Peugeot's implementation... since CarPlay in my Ford is fully functional when my vehicle is stopped (doesn't even have to be in Park).knowitall said:I’m ‘using’ carplay a half year now on my Peugeot 2008 (not on the list by the way, but I know US drivers miss out the best cars in the world).
Unfortunately carplay is more of a gimmick than someting functional, even the icons are big and rendered in a coarse way (very unlike anyting Apple).
The super paternalistic mode (couldn’t find a way to turn that off) is totally unworkable. I couldnt even read my whatsapp messages, instead boring cumbersome Siri took over...
I don't really WANT you to be able to stare at the screen to read WhatsApp... I want you paying attention to the road.The buttons are "big" to make them easier to use in a moving vehicle... easy to find without having to divert too much attention from the road.

It's been years,
Possibly because it got boring.SpamSandwich said:I don’t recognize your name, but looks like you were posting here at least 5 years after I was here. Why did you leave?
... Like Trumptman said above, the site used to be a lot more "useful" (and more exciting).

Fifth-generation iPad mini coming in the first half of 2019, says Taiwan suppliers
I'd buy a new Mini ... the 4 is just barely able to run the app i want it for... so i bought a 9.7... but it's just to big for where I use it. I really want an up-to-date Mini.

GPS vs. GPS+Cellular
...other than maybe buying a feature that you might find useful in the future... based on your current stated needs, there's no point.
