Before using Carplay, it is necessary to prepare an original USB cable. Wireless connection can also be used without a data cable, and the iOS system should be updated to a newer or latest version. Connect the data cable to the car’s USB port, and you will be prompted to turn on Siri on your phone. The car will automatically start Carplay. If Carplay does not appear on the main interface of the car’s infotainment system, click on “General” in the settings and find Carplay in car to open it.
Only users of Apple phones and car models with Carplay supported central control screens can synchronize their phone navigation to car navigation through Carplay.

Bijie provides an integrated solution for car screen casting SDK, which integrates the SDK into the car navigation system. When navigation is needed, it can be directly projected onto the car’s infotainment system. The infotainment system has a larger screen and clearer map display, making it easier for drivers to view navigation information while driving. Some infotainment systems can also be projected onto the dashboard screen, so drivers do not need to shift their gaze to the central control screen. They only need to look at the dashboard, making driving safer.
