Stopped working

Worked perfectly on my BMW 530E. But since Apple released iOS 27.2 last week it no longer works.

В автомобиле не воспроизводится видео, только звук, и это полный отстой

Приложение отображается на ну авто в карплей, отображаются каналы даже, но когда включаешь канал, то появляется надпись: смотрите на айфон, слушаете на авто! Полный бред. Я и так могу смотреть на айфон все что угодно и слушать это на авто, отдельное приложение для этого не нужно! Зачем вообще делать такое приложение, если смотреть на авто все равно ничего получится!

CarTV issue after update

It works but after I update the Apple 27.2 they stop working.. pls update again..🥲🥲🥲

It stop working

This app worked for maybe 2 wks and I’m not sure if the new update has anything to do with it but it doesn’t play anymore. Also I’m wondering if I need to purchase the full app in order to unlock it cause it’s been working. If someone out is experiencing the same thing let me know.
