is apple car play really worth it? I think getting the 8" form Euro Car Upgrades really worth it considering you can control your music from the head unit itself. Plus the map on the 8" is so much better than apple map from CarPlay

This is true however what's the cost difference? From what I'm reading it's easily $2k going the Euro Car option.

Probably been mentioned, but the easiest way to 'create' a physical Pause/Play button whilst the Music or Spotify Apps are on screen is to turn the right MIB II left until the Pause/Play button lights up blue.
I prefer this over the touch screen as it's easier to press.
IOS10 adds the ability to rearrange App buttons in CarPlay, from your mobile device.
No more swiping across to get to commonly used Apps (Spotify etc.).
Just installed 10 so I will play with the changes tonight. There was talk that 10 might add the ability to get more data on the MFD. Has that happened?

Looks the same to me. You can move app icons around via the CarPlay menu on your phone but visually it's the same. Maps looks and operates better and music, which I don't use, looks closer to the version on my phone. Not much really, nothing to get excited about unless I'm totally missing something?

I guess the best part is continuous improvement from Apple with improvements to iOS. OEM Headunit software and Maps usually get forgotten pretty quickly!
Just tested it & no, but I didn't take off. Don't think it'd make a difference - went through every MFD menu to try & find the Maps, but got nothing.Quote:

Ah, cool. So one of the things I was expecting was the turn by turn in the MFD. Reading that article it sounds like it now requires VW to release an MIB2 update to support it too.
Perhaps they can do that when they fix the other bugs!
