How to use CarPlay in Lavida?
2 Answers
Lavida can interact with the car through Siri, control via the touchscreen display, or use the physical buttons on the car. Here is some information about CarPlay: 1. The function of CarPlay: "CarPlay is an in-car system released by Apple, which integrates with the car's dashboard system through the iOS 7.1 official version. The role of CarPlay is to build a bridge between iPhone applications and the car's digital system, making it easier to control devices. 2. Connection method of CarPlay: Connect wirelessly via Bluetooth, but after connection, data transmission and connection are mostly done through WiFi.
Setting up CarPlay in the Lavida is actually quite simple, as long as you confirm that your car's infotainment system is a compatible model. As a Lavida owner, I can say that models after 2018 generally support it. The steps are the same as what I do: First, start the car, connect your iPhone to the car's USB port using the original USB cable, wait a few seconds for the prompt asking whether to enable CarPlay to pop up on the screen, and then click confirm. If the connection fails accidentally, remember to check if your iOS is updated to the latest version or try restarting both the car and your phone. The advantage of CarPlay is that it makes navigation and playing music safer while driving, eliminating the need to constantly look at your phone. I use it daily for commuting to find my way and listen to music. Wireless CarPlay is also supported in some high-end Lavida models. You need to pair the car's device in your phone's Bluetooth settings. The first connection might take a bit longer to confirm permissions, but it will connect automatically afterward. In short, give it a try—it's quite convenient. If you encounter any issues, check the manual or visit a repair shop.
