    Default How do I get CarPlay to work? – 06-10-2016,05:09 PM
    How on earth do I get Apple CarPlay to work on my C7?

    I've connected the phone via USB cable in the armrest and nothing seems to happen. I can't see any option to enable it on either the MMI menus or my iPhone.

    Am I being dumb and missing something?

    Did you order the Audi smartphone interface with the car? Also this was only made available this year(model year 17)

    You should also have "Audi smartphone interface" in the setup menu.

    No it was a £250 option. No retrofit available as yet.

    Which is a bit rubbish, as it should only be software.

    It is only software (a digital license file linked to the cars VIN number). From what I understand both Apple & Google have device fees, and Audi have development costs so this is just being passed onto the customer.
