Not sure if i got the update first because i'm in Australia, but here's the link: https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/appradio/id434811742?mt=8

Same. I'm assuming we need a firmware update. Which doesn't seem to be released yet.

It seems there was an update to the Appradio app today... Anyone know how it works? Seems like you can use Appradio mode with just 1 x lightning cable now, no HDMI needed. It does say to update to the latest firmware but i cant seem to find any new firmware updates.

I have the Appradio 4. Great unit. My only problem is that ive owned iphones all my life. I hate Apple, really hate Apple. Only stuck with iphones because i didnt like how most Android phones were so big. Anyway, currently own the iphone 5. CarPlay works great with the AR4. My problem is that i feel like now im stuck with an iphone because the AR4 is more suitable for IOS devices than Android because of the CarPlay. This is the only thing stopping me from buying a new Android phone now. And with Android Auto being released in the not so far future... i kind of regret my purchase

From what i can see, you cant. You can only increase or decrease the time zone. Unfortunately for me, im in Australia so the time zones do not increase enough for me to have the correct time and date. So I just turn the clock function off.

Which plug did you connect your camera video output to? The brown coloured plug under the HDMI port?

Highly unlikely as Google owns Waze.

Hey Mate, Yes, the unit will automatically play bluetooth audio at the last song position before you turned the car off. No need to press anything, it will connect and auto-play. Regarding steering wheel controls, i am using Axxess ASWC-1. Im pretty sure you can use any but i read that Axxess was one of the easiest to install/program so thats why im using it.

Im not sure how accurate this is but Appradioworld says the Alpine doesnt support bluetooth connectivity?? http://www.appradioworld.com/2014/11/apple-carplay-battle-alpine-ilx-007-vs.html That sounds quite odd seeing that i was under the impression that bluetooth was used for the Appradio to send commands to your phone, to switch songs etc. Anyway, apparently Appradio can be bouight for 500USD now... makes me want to cry cos i got mine at full price 600USD

Hey Mate, This is my first headunit, so the first time ive ever installed/used a bypass. So i cant comment if the old relay method works. I do know that the manual method of bypassing is to ground the parking wire, unground it, and then constantly ground it again to perform the bypass. If your relay does this, then it should work on the Appradio 4. Regarding not having a bypass and playing to an external device, sorry im not sure about this. I'll see if i can test this, but at the moment ive completed my install so cant be arsed opening up everything again.

I just tried out Appradio mode on my Appradio 4... Its pretty shit to be honest. Its laggy, slow, apps take forever to launch and the display seems to be very low quality? Worst thing is you have to use a big ass lightning to HDMI cable. I'll stick with CarPlay.

Not sure if this helps but in order to use Appradio, dont you also need to install the Appradio app on your phone aswell?

Can confirm that the microbypass for the US Appradio 4 works. Also works with CarPlay where there's a keyboard option that gets enabled when searching for a destination in Apple maps.

Yeah, I've tested this while driving. The keyboard icon is enabled if the parking wire is grounded.

OK, I can confirm that you have to be "parked" to have the keyboard icon enabled in CarPlay. CarPlay seems to think you are parked if you ground the parking wire on the unit. You don't need the double pulse. My Appradio 4 is the US model.

Yeah, i'm referring to the keyboard function in Maps when using CarPlay. When i tested it, i did not have the keyboard icon on the screenshot shown below... All i had was Siri waiting for my command and a Cancel button.

Just completed my wiring harness and did a test with CarPlay on my appradio 4. My parking wire is currently not connected to anything because I'm waiting for my microbypass to arrive. My problem is that the keyboard icon does not appear when trying to search for a destination in maps. Siri pops up asking me for a destination but there's no keyboard icon on the top right hand side. Are you guys able to confirm if the keyboard icon appears for you guys? Or is anyone who doesn't have a bypass(I know this is probably rare) or has a switch bypass able to confirm if the keyboard

Ok. Just did a test run with my harness. Everything works ok. I'm still waiting on my microbypass so the parking wire is not connected to anything. I got car play to work but my biggest issue is that I can't seem to get the onscreen keyboard to appear in Apple maps. I go to search for a destination and Siri pops up asking me where I want to go but there is no keyboard icon as stated in an earlier post. Does anyone know if this is because I don't have my bypass? I'm hoping its some security feature that's disabling the keyboard because the appradio thinks I'm "driving".

I was under the impression Hyundai has an OEM Carplay too.

Just arrived. Im from Australia and bought the US version. Looking to install it or at least have a working harness this weekend. Im still waiting on the Micro Bypass and SWC units. Ill keep you guys posted.

Awesome! Thanks for the reply mate.

Hi Mate, You said Carplay was primarily designed for driving and no bypass is required. Does that mean that Carplay does not have an on-screen keyboard? For example, you wish to use Apple Maps to navigate to an address. Do you have to use Siri to input your destination? Or can you also manually type in an address. All the review videos i have seen has not shown any sort of keyboard, only Siri. Cheers,

I think ill wait til more places in the US stock the AR4. Seems the European version doesnt have Pandora which is available in Australia. Seems you can only buy it straight from Pioneer and one store on Amazon at the moment. Quite strange nobody else has stock.

Thanks for the information mate. I would have thought you would need more than just grounding the green wire. I think ill just assume its the same bypass as the AR3. Did you buy it online? Do you have a link to the website? Hopefully they ship to Australia.
