Thisis my first Hyundai. I have always driven cars with wireless Apple CarPlay. I do not like having to connect my iPhone to the car via a cable. This is annoying. Like my previous cars, I want to be able to simply get in my car, leave my iPhone in my purse and automatically have access to Apple CarPlay. I can listen to audiobooks, Pandora, my AppleMusic, send/retrieve What's App messages. I do not rely on Google Maps....I use the car navigation, but the hook up via a cable is a pure drag. Hyundai, please fix this. It's ridiculous!!!

I wish it would work fine with a USB cable. That option doesn't fix anything for me (just like another post mentioned), even if I set it up to not use wireless Apple CarPlay. So I'm not sure it has anything to do with the wireless side of things.


Siri listens/responds to herself, unsends messages, sends stuff I didn't say (but she did). Music continues to play in the background so that creates an added level of frustration. It will even unmute audio when I use Siri. They only way to keep music from playing is to drop the level to 0 before I activate Siri.


I agree. Archaic indeed. I was told an upgrade would be coming from Hyundai for my 2024 Limited to provide wireless Apple Carplay capability. After reading all the posts on this site, I decided to simply purchase the adapter, but I agree, Why should we have to purchase adapters if an upgrade was promised? Additionally, you received the upgrade, but it doesn't work. Not a happy camper either. This is absurd. If they can make it work on lower-trim Hyundais, just make it work on all Hyundais!


So sorry the update did not work correctly. I've given up hoping Hyundai will deliver a wireless Apple Carplay software update for the 2024 Tucson Limited. I bought a wireless adapter for Apple Carplay on Amazon,Teeran wireless adapter. =ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1


Exec summary: I have successfully updated the software on my Tucson PHEV but, despite the update page clearly stating "You can connect Apple CarPlay and Google Android Auto wirelessly without a USB cable!" my car says no.


Now, I am in Canada, and it may be that despite the page I was directed to by Hyundai Canada promising wireless CarPlay, it may not yet be offered here. I would be interested to hear whether it fixes that deficiency in American models.


As for why the method detailed above worked to update the software, my guess is that a finder copy may have put additional files on the key that frighted and confused the Tucson's operating system, whereas a key that was formatted and populated by the Hyundai app did it just the way the car wanted it.


Thank you. I wouldn't say I like using a USB connection with Apple Car Play. My previous vehicles always connected wirelessly. This is so backward with Hyundai. I was told because I have a factory-installed navigation system and a 10.25-inch nav screen, I have to use USB to connect. Lower trims without navigation can connect wirelessly. Why? This makes no sense. It is a pure drag to connect my phone to a USB cable in the car. I want to leave my phone in my purse and enjoy Apple CarPlay. Bluetooth works wirelessly, of course, in the car; but not Apple CarPlay. Supposedly there is some dispute between Apple and Hyundai about who owns the navigation button in the vehicle????? Stupid....just fix it and make it work. This is so annoying!


Cicibear, The first part of what you were told is the equivalent of your ISP insisting that you power cycle your modem when your internet is down, although you have clearly stated that everyone you know in the neighbourhood is also down. Useless boilerplate from 1st level support who don't have a clue.


they probs need to reload the cars software. After 3 check engine issues and 6 months of going back and forth to the dealer, (2024 N line Tucson hybrid) they reinstalled the software and it seems to be better. They said if the check engine came back on,they would start a buyback. Not because of CarPlay but because of many other weird driving issues and check engine. The CarPlay issue though is super annoying.


My SONOS disconnects and reconnects to the WiFi network intermittently. Other streaming services have adequate buffering to maintain continuous playback, but [stream what you hear] apparently doesn't, resulting in start-and-stop playback.


There are tons of posts about how to stream computer audio to Sonos, almost all of which say you can't, or that you have to use a line-in approach with a Connect. I just did it wirelessly in less than five minutes and $0. Note this is only for Windows, and has a several-second delay, so it won't help with video or games, but audio is just fine. I know there is something similar for Mac, but I have not tried it, and have heard it might have issues.




Is there a fix for web videos out of sync? Whenever I play something on YouTube or any other web video, the SWYH sound lags enough to be visibly out of sync with the video and makes it very unpleasant to watch. Is there some way to adjust for this, or is it just an inherent limitation that makes SWYH suitable for listening but not for viewing?


I want to avoid buying a bluetooth speaker, and would rather use my computer's speakers to play my phone's audio. This would allow me to control music from the native music app on my phone (Android, Nexus 4).


I've considered using this bluetooth receiver that my speakers would plug into. At that point, I would want my computer paired %100 of the time, and my phone only when I want to play music (I want to avoid constant pairing and unpairing). Would both phone and computer (a custom build Windows 8 machine) be able to pair to the bluetooth receiver and use the speakers at the same time?


With windows 8.1 (not sure about windows 8), you don't need anything extra to play audio from an Android phone (not sure about iPhone), just pair the phone with the computer and go to Bluetooth settings and select to connect to the PC (by name) then select whatever audio on the phone you want to play.


Alternatively, if you have an android phone (im unsure if it is available for iPhone), you can download an app called Bubble UPNP from the google play store. As long as your PC and phone are connected to wifi, and windows media player is open and set up on your pc, you can play music wirelessly to your PC from any where in the house.


To configure windows media player, if in windows 8+, click stream, and allow all of the options if you can. If you don't have windows 8 or above, then google how to do it. There are tutorials all over the internet for configuring windows media player for streaming.Then go onto the Bubble upnp app, click devices. Your PC should appear provided your phone and PC are connected to Wifi.Next go to Libraries to select the music you wish to play. Finally, go to the now playing tab, click settings, and click Renderer. Ensure your PC is selected.You can now play music to your PC, change song, and even adjust the volume of your PC from the app!


You may need to adjust some settings, but in theory it should be possible to pass the signal from your computer's microphone jack through to your existing speakers. So, you could buy that Bluetooth receiver and plug it in to the microphone jack in your computer instead of plugging it into your speakers. Or you could simply use a regular audio cable, and plug your phone in to your computer's microphone jack directly.


I've finally come to a solution of my own here. Since my computer/speakers don't have bluetooth, I bought a Chromecast Audio. Luckily, my computer speakers accept dual inputs simultaneously, so the computer's audio, and the Chromecast's audio will play at the same time, without me having to plug/unplug each time.


I have a collection of movies (Please note: Mostly 1080p) on my external hard disk drive. This drive is attached to my PC (Mac). The external hard disk also contains some important work files, hence I will not be able to detach it from my Mac.


I have a 32" TV in the hallroom nearby. I can attach the output of my Pi, through HDMI to my TV. Now all I need to do is stream the video content from my Mac, to my TV through the Pi. Both my Pi and Mac are connected to the same Wifi network. The Pi is connected wirelessly too, if that helps. Both rooms are nearby as well, very with both the Mac and the Pi also close to the wifi router.


If you want to use the PI exclusively as a HTPC or media center, you could use a distribution geared towards such applications. OpenELEC/XBMC /RasBMC seem to be the obvious choice. I did try OpenELEC at one time, but getting WiFi to work reliably on it seemed to be a pain.


There are some drawbacks to this kind of a setup the most important one being that not all formats can be decoded and played back on the Pi, but .mp4s and .mkvs seemed fine most of the time. If the Pi stutters sometimes when playing back 1080p videos, you could try overclocking via raspi-config (playback is smooth most of the time with 900Mhz).


Screen "mirroring" can be achieved via VNC, you could install a VNC server on the host machine and access it via a VNC viewer running on RPi. While this might be useful for accessing text or images, video playback via such a setup will most likely be horrible.
