Carplay small buttons and text
Posted: Fri May 13, 2022 10:18 am
Hi all,
A few weeks in with the new car - for the most part loving it but...
The icons on the right side of the screen are ridiculously small - almost impossible to hit the first time while driving, which means taking your eyes off the road. The icons on the home screen are fine, but the shortcut 3 icons on the right are tiny.
As is the font. I use Waze and it's ridiculously small, as well as the icons for reporting traffic and entering a destination. It also appears incredibly zoomed out. The font when in other apps likeAudible or Apple Music is crazy small.
It's not my phone, tried it with the boss and hers was the same.
I've read online that changing the font size on the phone will work, doesn't seem to do anything, plus I don't want to change the font size on my phone just for use in the car.
For the record, this is the 3rd car with Carplay I've had, a Skoda and an Arteon last time - so it's not as though my expectations are off.
Anyone else having this issue? I'm wondering if the car isn't reporting properly to the phone about resolution etc.
And nevermind how shockingly awful the touchscreen responsiveness is - but I have read that's a generic issue?
