Last year I purchased the AppRadio3 and couriously there will be no official Carplay-Update for this device :/

Is there any chance to modificate the Firmware or something to add this support?

As far as what's been told no. Pioneer has launched the Appradio 4. They won't be supporting the 3 anymore. Also the 3 is not as powerful as the NEX line, nor does it run the same OS as the NEX line (windows CE on Appradio 1-3, Android on NEX and by proxy Appradio 4)

I'd be pretty pissed off if I bought an AR3 as its notlong out, I've an AR2 myself, if they even updated ARLive a bit more often and got some of the major apps on board like google maps, spotify, YouTube, etc, or just allowed full touch control like unchained and extensions do

I think it´s only a Firmware feature....

All hardware power and Carplay-Software is on the phone, the AR3 has only to display output and provide touch Input.

Maybe when you connect the iPhone, it just asks "Radio has Carplay?" if yes it sets into a special output mode...an we only need to set this flag in the AR-Firmware.
