I have not updated to IOS 6 because I am scared that I will lose functionality on my AR2. Has anyone had any issues after updating to IOS 6 as well as updating the appradio app? Do the new apple maps work in lieu of the google maps? Anything else to be weary of?

I upgraded to iOS6 last night and as far as I can tell, it all works OK. Take a look at the excerpt below...

 

Copied from the iPhone 5 thread:

 

For owners of current AppRadio 2, AppRadio, and Advanced App Mode products*, please read the following important update:

Your Pioneer product is compatible with iOS 6 installed on the iPhone 4S or iPhone 4.

At this time, two operational issues, listed below, have been identified. To resolve these issues, both the Pioneer AppRadio app and each compatible third-party AppRadio app require an update.

 

 

1.) Apps cannot be successfully launched from the AppRadio screen.

2.) Pinch to zoom is disabled.

As of September 18, 2012, an updated Pioneer AppRadio app has been submitted to the App Store for review. We will post more information when this app is available in the App Store. The developers of compatible third-party AppRadio apps are also currently working to update their respective apps. The update and submission process may vary for each compatible third-party AppRadio app.

We will continue to post updates regarding app availability.

* Model numbers vary by region. Applicable U.S. models are as follows: SPH-DA100, SPH-DA02, SPH-DA01, AVIC-Z140BH, AVIC-X940BT, AVH-P8400BH

From my experience so far (iPhone 4S, iOS6, AppRadio App v1.8.0):

1) My Apps seem to launch just fine from th Appradio screen

2) Pinch to zoom is currently not working on the Maps App for me. I have not tried looking at photos.

The new Maps App does work. You can search, get directions, etc. You can still zoom by hitting the +/- buttons, but pinch to zoom does not work.

Yep it all works for me too on Appradio v1

Even the new apple Podcast app on the phone works with the appradio playback.

I need to add that Maps works just like the old google version did. However, turn-by-turn directions from Maps only works on the phone itself. Its video is not sent to the AppRadio. The voice guidance does come through the speakers FWIW.

youtube don't work as it work before...

you know you can display youtube videos if you launch it from the iphone if in os 5.1....in os 6, not ...

 

whereas now, you can launch "video" carmedia player when it works...( most of time blank screen )

 

new fonction with facebook or twiter added, you can show your "gps" position in google maps, not important but funny.
