Go to the main interface of your iPhone, then open the Settings icon on your phone. Next, enter the Settings interface and select the General option. Enter the General settings interface and choose to open the CarPlay option. Then enter the CarPlay interface, and a prompt window will pop up. Select the Bluetooth option and turn on the Bluetooth switch. Available cars will be searched on the interface. Once successfully found, connect to start using.
I've been driving a Civic for two years and have mostly relied on a data cable for screen mirroring. First, check if your car model supports CarPlay or Android Auto—most mid-to-high trim 10th and 11th generation models do. For iPhones, simply plug the original cable into the USB port in the center console, and the car’s infotainment system will automatically prompt you—just tap 'Agree' to enable screen mirroring. Remember to keep your phone’s Bluetooth on, as the first connection might require pairing. For Android phones, you’ll need to install the Android Auto app beforehand. Navigation and music can be directly mirrored to the car’s display, which is much more stable than using a phone mount. Don’t skimp on the data cable—use one certified by the manufacturer. I had frequent disconnections with a generic cable before, but switching back to the original cable solved the issue completely.
