Apple Carplay is an interesting feature that allows us to take a copy of the screen of our iPhone On the dashboard of a compatible car. As more and more car models have this utility, it is normal for tips and configurations to always appear on websites, so we will now show you one of the simplest to make.
Have you ever tried to reorganize or delete the applications displayed in Apple Carplay? Many do not know it, but you can do it without problem, even if it is a little different from the way we do it on our iPhone. Then we will show you how you can do it now (if you read us from your car).
How to personalize the organization of applications in Carplay
If you use Carplay with your iPhone, You have the possibility of adjusting the order of applications according to your preferencesEven without being connected to the vehicle. Keep in mind, however, that the personalized parameters of the application are specific to each car, so you will have to repeat the process if you want the same organization in different vehicles.
Steps to personalize applications in Carplay:
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
- Access the general option.
- Select Carplay, which appears to be one of the menu options.
- Choose your vehicle from the list of corresponding cars and press Customize.
Remember that each screen is different, so you have to perform this process each time you change your vehicle.
How to organize applications?
In this section, You can reorganize applications by dragging them up or down in the list. Although this system does not directly imitate the arrangement you see on your iPhone, it allows you to adjust the order so that it is reflected on the car screen. This could be due to the fact that Carplay interfaces vary depending on the vehicles and adopt different grid provisions.
For a current layout such as 2×4 (two lines and four columns), You can use the following reference to organize your applications: * At the top left * second from top left * second from top right * at the top right * at the bottom left * second starting from bottom to left * from the bottom from right * in downside
If your Carplay screen uses a different arrangement, such as 2×5 or 4×4, you will have to adapt the order according to the number of lines and columns that your vehicle supports. The most important thing here is to repeat and test, because it is very likely that you change this whenever you have the time.
How to hide or display applications in Carplay?
From the same personalization screen, You can also hide carplay apps. This does not delete the applications of your iPhone, but prevents them from appearing on the car screen, which can help you reduce visual size or give priority to the applications you use most frequently.
Remember that this process is independent for each vehicleSo if you use several cars with Carplay, you will need to configure applications in each of them separately.
