Hello Stacie,

First, thank you so much for being on this forum.

Is there any official position on if or when Apple CarPlay will be coming to the i-Pace? The auto magazine articles can't seem to agree on if it is included (which definitely seems to be incorrect), coming soon, or not going to be there. I'm very interested in getting one, but the lack of CarPlay is a major negative.

Yes true. I was also wondered about this. Especially because CarPlay will get a huge update in September from Apple's side it will add a lot extra value to the iPace.

I tried to search some forums about this and think they are still waiting to get certified. But the fact that they removed it from there own website worries me.

Anybody know anything more about this?

I have seen in some publicatons and some discussions that the Apple Car play wil be activated.
Even the Wave app for traffic information, route guiding and speed traps will be available according to this messages.

Do you mean WAZE app? I use that myself alongside my Discovery Sport Sat Nav and its very good.

Yes. From september its possible to use Waze etc. With CarPlay. But you car need to have CarPlay. So that is now the bottleneck with JLR. Really hoor they Will finaly at that with the Productions release of the iPace.

We will see.

Yes but maybe it will be carplay with limited apps Approved by JLR .

Just did a quick search to understand requirements for car manufacturers to implement CarPlay. Didn't find what I was looking for just yet but I expect you'd need certified hardware to run the (standardized?) CarPlay OS. If so it shouldn't be too much effort for Jaguar to implement, provided they meet hw requirements.

Interestingly, on their website Apple states Jaguar as supported manufacturer. However, if you go to the overview of car per manufacturer, Jaguar isn't listed.

It will be possible once IOS12 is released (propably mid / end september).

It's like the French coyote app announced end 2016 to be in Jaguar incontrol app but still not today. Or I missed something ?
