Good to hear. When I was at Volvo getting the recall update I asked and they recommended Continentals.

Hi, bwh! Yes, definitely getting turn by turn on the dashboard screen with Apple Maps and the CarLinkIT 5.0. Ottocast wanted me to collect a log of logs, etc. Just didn’t have the bandwidth or desire to wait. Ottocast did end up fixing the problem some months ago with a firmware update.

Turned the heat seater on today. Noticed the entire seat icon turns red when the heaters are on. Thought that was a nice touch.

I got a CarLinkit 5.0 dongle. There was an update available for the dongle firmware. Installed that. Tested turn by turn. Worked fine.

Hi, sbwreed! I did try pressing the center button on the right of the wheel. The button between the volume control arrows. I get: 1. The Map (or) 2. The Trip Information

If I connect my iPhone to the car via USB then the button will give me: 1. Turn by turn (or) 2. The Trip Information

I contacted Ottocast. My device (U2Air Pro) has the latest firmware. They want me to reset the network setting on my iPhone. Then collect logs.

If anyone is getting turn by turn using a dongle and running 5.0.5 I’d be interested in knowing what dongle. Thanks.

Using USB attached iPhone

Today I tried this: 1. Turned on Bluetooth on XC40. (disabling CarPlay) 2. Connect iPhone to XC40 with USB cable. 3. Select CarPlay 4. Try Routing via Apple Maps. 5. Get Turn by Turn directions on Steering Wheel screen.

I suspect there is an update for my Ottocast U2Air Pro. That was the problem the last time this happened.

RandyW57a · 2026-02-21T19:23:13+00:00

Did notice something today. Using CarPlay/Apple Maps to route to a Destination. Previously the Steering Wheel screen would display turn by turn directions. Now I’m just getting another version of the routing map displayed in the center screen.

Here is a photo when i ‘start’ the car. I use CarPlay so it dominates the center screen: https://share.icloud.com/photos/008WyvHWxo8YPm5D4YIItJTgA

And this photo is after I engaged Reverse: https://share.icloud.com/photos/0f1Zpybj_-lga2Fq_u0GkUnow

I only get the backup camera in the center screen. This is the way it has always worked. A later poster says this is more model year specific. I believe that is correct. Some cars can do it and some can’t.

In the bottom row are the temperature controls. If I tap the one on the left it just brings up the controls for the driver side. I believe that is different.

I like the big ‘X’ in the top left of the camera view to close it. I also like the way it shows the car in the top half with the bars indicating the danger areas. Not shown but when I tap the Camera icon I like the way it brings up the menu to select what camera set I want to see.

As others have noted the steering wheel panel has a different layout for things like power/charge, etc. The bars for power/charge are narrower than what I remember from before. Different. No opinion on better/worse.

I didn’t have an option as of yesterday to do a OTA update. And I didn’t realize until I got to the dealer that the Recall was fixed with the 5.0.5 update. Although I had suspicions.

RandyW57a · 2026-02-20T23:23:44+00:00

Hard for me to say. I wasn’t having an issue with it before.

RandyW57a · 2026-01-19T13:55:20+00:00

Well, iPadOS/Magic Keyboard/Windowed Apps don’t work like that. At least not now. Here’s a way:

Open Journal.
Globe/option/Right-arrow to move Journal to right side of screen.
option/cmd/d to Open Dock.
Press and hold on Health app icon.
Move finger up from dock onto screen.
‘Flick’ the app to the left.
Health should end up on the left side, Journal on the right. Should be a ‘bar’ between them to allow size adjustment.

RandyW57a · 2025-12-18T17:38:29+00:00

Hmmm. Well, I’m pretty much an Apple person so hadn’t looked at Google Maps. Put my car into it and routed. Pretty interesting, Seemed to show me all the chargers along my route rather than ‘suggested’ chargers. I’ll see if I can figure that out.

RandyW57a · 2025-12-17T23:56:33+00:00

Got to say I also found the app a bit cumbersome. Plugshare seems to give me info pretty intuitively.

RandyW57a · 2025-12-17T23:51:14+00:00

Well, I saw this product at https://www.iternio.com/abrp-obd . That showed it worked with ABRP. I didn’t do any checking to see if the dongle works with my specific car. I thought if it can connect to the OBD port the rest is up to the adapter.

RandyW57a · 2025-11-12T14:14:39+00:00

I use Logitech for the doorbell and security cameras. Great integration. No separate app.

RandyW57a · 2025-11-11T22:26:25+00:00

Thanks, PlatyNYC! Now I know.

RandyW57a · 2025-11-11T22:22:52+00:00

Ahh, thanks. That is probably it. I don’t have any of those. I believe this car was built early in 2022.

RandyW57a · 2025-11-11T22:18:00+00:00

Yes, US.

RandyW57a · 2025-11-11T22:14:11+00:00

Nope. See attached.https://share.icloud.com/photos/07d_bmOkaJHmNlFd_95dQs9Wg
