If you have an Apple phone, like my iPhone 12 Pro Max, it works super smoothly and supports all CarPlay features because it's compatible with iPhone 5 or newer models, requiring at least iOS 7.1 or above. Most model years of the Lynk & Co 03 support this, including wireless CarPlay in post-2020 versions—like my 2021 model, which connects super conveniently. Make sure your iOS is up to date, as versions like 13 or 14 are more stable. Older iPhones like the iPhone 6 might occasionally lag. I’ve also picked up a few tips: using an official Apple Lightning cable is more reliable—avoid third-party accessories. For wireless, turn on Bluetooth and pair it with the car’s settings—it’s pretty quick. Newbies should check if the CarPlay icon lights up on the car’s screen and not ignore software update prompts. Overall, iPhones from the iPhone 8 onward offer the best experience, with large-screen navigation and music control being super satisfying. When driving, I often use Spotify for navigation—it’s seamless and uninterrupted. Highly recommend trying it.
As a car owner, I've been using the Lynk & Co 03 for several years. Its CarPlay is compatible with common iPhone models, and both my iPhone SE 2020 and iPhone 11 Pro work fine. The key factor is the phone version: basically, iPhones from iPhone 5 and above can connect, but iPhone 7 or newer models are recommended. Before connecting, make sure the iOS version is 10 or above for better performance. If you encounter connection failures, it might be due to a loose cable or outdated car software—I've experienced this a few times. Try restarting your phone or the car system, which solves 90% of the issues. The Lynk & Co 03's USB port has good compatibility; use certified accessories to avoid power supply issues. The wireless mode works on premium versions and needs to be activated in the settings. I usually use it for listening to podcasts and navigation, which is smarter than regular Bluetooth. New users should remember to regularly check for system updates to maintain smooth operation. When switching phones, seamless adaptation is possible from iPhone 7 to iPhone 13.
