Congrats on making the App Carplay compatible!

It's working well with a EZGO embedded display and now it's my favorite golf car gps app!

HI, Yes… Thank you so much!

We rolled it out without making a big thing out of it to see if it was working well for everyone.

We still have a few tweaks, but will make an announcement soon!

We are trying our best.

Thank you so much for your support 😊

Is it only available to IPhone users?

LOVE that you added CarPlay!! Thank you! I tried it on my Sirius Star cart and it displays the app on the screen but when I ask it to give me golf cart directions to XX golf course, it says “No route found”. I looked for several executive courses, all well established, and same thing. “No route found”. In the app on my phone, it found executive golf cart routes with no issue. Thoughts on what the issue is?

Hi,
Yes, that is a bug we have and are testing a fix for it now and tomorrow.

The fix is to close the app on your phone and reopen it.

To close the app, swipe up from the bottom of your phone, then swipe up again to close it completely.

Then open it again, and it will work.

We will have another update to fix that issue either tomorrow or Thursday.
Technology sure isn’t for the faint of heart!

If anyone has any other issues, please email us at [email protected] and we will be able to help you out faster.

We are trying our best for everyone. Thank you for your patience 🙏

Hi and thank you for your comment.

Yes…we have that planned. It took us over 3 months and a small fortune to develop it from scratch just for iPhone/CarPlay.

It will take us around the same for Android Auto.

We are also working on a few other features that will be coming out soon!

Thanks for everyones patience with this.

How you get it installed in your golf cart?

Some of the new carts have a built-in touch screen display similar to what's available in most cars that connects your iPhone to carplay.

They make USB plugins that give you android Car Play. They work great. I have installed on my motorcycle. You can get on Amazon.

Where is the app? The only one in the App Store is 7 months old.

[Rocksnap]

I tried the app in our car.
I could easily be doing something wrong, but I couldn’t even find the app, to get it to display on my car screen.
I will try again. If no luck I will email you.

The USB plugin gives you Android Auto for an Android phone, and Carplay for an iPhone. It does not give you the ability to somehow magically run Carplay on an Android phone or vice versa. This is not a solution for what the poster asked.

To use Android Auto, the app on the Android phone has to be written to support Android Auto.
