Apple CarPlay not there

I bought the 2017 Jaguar F-type and after a month of disconnecting the previous owner from the car and adding me AND paying for the infotainment upgrade for CarPlay at a Jaguar dealership I still can’t get the CarPlay to show up and I’m stuck with the Genius navigation from 2017 because it won’t update….really expensive and now frustrating !

How is this app even allowed

The lack of privacy and the permissions required to use this app are frightening. Buying an aftermarket remote starter so I’m not stalked by Jaguar and all their 3rd party affiliates they sell user’s information to

Trust the reviews

I read the reviews before downloading this app and linking it to my Jaguar. However, I thought how bad could it be? TRUST the reviews! Worst interface ever and it really has zero point for existence. This deserves a review of no stars…but Apple requires you pick at least one star.

Use your phone. System is terrible.

Wasted a day upgrading this software a year ago. Jaguar’s answer to CarPlay. Actually it’s NO PLAY. Would give zero stars if I could. Rarely connects. And when it does, useless applications that will kick you off quickly. Sad because the F Type is such a nice car.

Worthless

Truly pointless app. Easier to use the phone thru Bluetooth. The app actually creates new limitations in functionality. If there is justice, developers have lost their jobs.
