    • the CarPlay works similar to uconnect
    • I own a iPhone 6 Plus and the CarPlay is kind of buggy, but other than that, no problems
    • The microphone works well, and I love the apple carplay
    • I use CarPlay almost exclusively and wonder if I would have been happier with the physical controls on the Alpine
    • The bluetooth/CarPlay mic sounds really, really good
    • Unfortunately, wireless CarPlay is not available and will require special hardware and hasn't been manufactured
    • Having spent a few days with it now, I have figured out it's basic functions and got Carplay to work seamlessly - all without referencing the manual
    • CarPlay can be laggy on this head
    • CarPlay is pretty good
    • If you own an iPhone, buy a cheaper head unit that support CarPlay
    • CarPlay is actually better than I thought it would be
    • The screen was really responsive and the CarPlay was great.
    • I like the radio, but it seems that CarPlay is a bit sluggish
    • In Radio.- CarPlay is good, but not great
    • CarPlay is sweet
    • In Radio.- CarPlay is good, but not great
    • Pretty pricey and the carplay is very limited
    • -Apple maps on the Carplay sucks, no where near as accurate or efficient as Google Maps-Carplay is glitchy, if you are listening the FM radio then connect the lightning cable to the unit, it will go silent as it has gone into Carplay mode, you will have to choose FM radio again to get the music back on
    • I've had a couple issues with audio not playing, and CarPlay glitching out when I start my car with my phone already plugged in
    • CarPlay is nice and works
    • Does not support both CarPlay and AppRadio mode without switching (CarPlay
    • CarPlay is nice
    • Maybe if I found a good CarPlay unit from a different manufacturer.
    • CarPlay has worked flawlessly so far; have not yet tried using an Android phone with it
    • CarPlay still lacks features in IOS 8
    • I love the carplay
    • I LOVE APPLE CARPLAY!!!
    • CarPlay is good, but don't hide your phone just yet
    • CarPlay with this device is incredibly buggy and worst of all, there's no way to dim the screen at night, making it a bit distracting while you drive.
    • In sum, CarPlay isn't ready for prime time yet, and Apple doesn't seem to be doing much to get it there
    • First for the good.-At the time it was the cheapest CarPlay receiver on the market.-CarPlay itself is
    • I can't really recommend a better stereo for CarPlay which is this unit's main selling point, but keep an eye on JVC, Alpine and Kenwood because they are all trying to get into the affordable CarPlay game
    • Carplay is pretty cool, especially if you are upgrading from a stock head unitSound quality is very goodLooks goodCons:-The screen could definitely be higher quality
    • I decided to purchase AppRadio4 once I found out it was Apple CarPlay compatible, especially since my car isn't exactly modern
    • For the price this radio meets my desire to have CarPlay and looks and sounds Apple like.
    • Siri integration is expectedly just as good as on the phone
    • If It worked as without restarting and the volume issue I would easily recommend this unit to others.
    • However the issue is, it simply doesnt work as you would want it
    • There is still some room for improvement in terms of software stability, but it works reasonably well (as to be expected with tech these days) and it sounds great too
    • This was frustrating when it would crash as you would have to turn your car on and off to restart it when it would crash
    • I have tried screen protectors and the result is as bad as without
