Calling all Apple IPhone users (and lovers)!
In this video, we are setting up Apple CarPlay on your Toyota vehicle. This is a terrific feature that is offered on select 2019-2020 Toyota models and nearly every 2021 Toyota model! This is a great interactive tool to view and operate navigation, text messages, music and podcast apps, and more from your phone on your Toyota. I will show you how to initiate Apple CarPlay on your phone and on the head unit of your Toyota vehicle, along with some tips and information of the use of this feature in your Toyota.
Please note that this feature is not installed on any Toyota models year 2018 and prior, but may have a retrofit program available depending on your Toyota model, year, and trim line. Please contact your closest Toyota dealership to check your eligibility.

Picked up my 2023 Toyota Yaris Cross today. Will try this tomorrow. Thanks.
Thanks for the beautiful information 👍
excellent tutorial, thanks so much!
Super helpful! Thank you!!
Thanks a lot, this worked perfectly
Ohhh, you made it so simple. This app was working in my car previously but stopped working. I took it to my dealership in my city (I would not name it), he told me it is not possible to do it in 2020 model, even when I told him that it worked before. Anyway after watching this video and changing the USB cable, it is working again. Thanks a loooooooooooot.
Nobody cares what you city you got it from bruh

Yay you helped me fix my car play issue. Thank you 😊
Happy to help
Thank you soo much for this! Your video is the only video that gives step by step details. Since I switched to an iPhone last year, I have not been able to set up CarPlay. I went back to my dealership several times only to be told that I had the wrong USB cord. Three cords later nothing worked. I finally decided to research again and watch your video. It finally works now! Thank you so much for your simple and detailed explanations!
You're welcome! Glad our video was able to help.

Yes it is! Thank you for watching!
How do I mirror my iPhone to the tv screen in the back?
Useful video, my only criticism is that the phrase "Apple Car Play" was used a little too often!
Thanks so much
You're welcome!
Bought a Toyota on Friday and it took me today, while watching this video to learn that my Apple Maps wasn’t working because I had my usb plugged into the 2.1 outlet (charger only) and not the outlet used for Apple Car play. Wow.
Glad our video was helpful
What about a usb type c charger?
You are star
Hi
You made your demo so easy for mirroring iphone with car , but for me it has become a challenge . I recently bought Toyota Corolla 2020 2L Ltd which has all the features for mirroring (App Suite settings and MirrorLink) but does not show car play in the head unit. Tried connecting Iphone & Samsung Andriod A71 with both of them updated software with as on date with new lightning cables but it failed. Could you please suggest where i am going wrong.
Thanks, Raghubir
Hi Raghubir! Thank you for taking the time to comment. On the 2020 Corolla sedan, you have Apple CarPlay, but not Android Auto. Here are a few tips:
- Ensure you are using a DATA TRANSFER CABLE. Some cords are just for charging and will not work with this feature.
- Ensure your IPhone is at least an IPhone 5 and the software is up to date. Outdated software tends to wreak havoc on this feature!!
- Are you plugging it into the right USB port? It has to be connected to the USB port under the dash to the left of the glovebox.
- Is your Apple CarPlay "on"? See beginning on video for instructions on how to do this.
- Connect your phone to the USB port and click MENU on your head unit. If the icon that says PROJECTION SETTINGS did not change to say "Apple CarPlay", 99% of the time it is a cord issue.
- Are you watching your phone for the initial prompt for Apple CarPlay once the phone is plugged in? Make sure you ALLOW Apple CarPlay to operate on the device.
- On your device, go into SETTINGS then GENERAL then CARPLAY. Does your vehicle show up there?
Feel free to advise when you have finished troubleshooting these steps :)
Thank u. When apple car play is established, do u need to disable Bluetooth on the phone? If yes, then how can u get and make ur phone calls?
Hi Vic! No need to disable Bluetooth on the phone, the vehicle will often disable it on its own once Apple CarPlay is initiated. You will still receive all your phone calls and text messages through Apple CarPlay, it may just look a little bit different on your screen, as this is an Apple-based software. Bluetooth is not necessary when using this feature as the cord gives the vehicle all of the information it requires to complete the same and often more diverse functions than if it were on a wireless method (Bluetooth). Keep in mind that you will also have access to Siri through the vehicle's microphone system when you are using Apple CarPlay as well, allowing you to send/respond to text messages more efficiently :) Thank you for your inquiries-hope this helps!
Great, short video presentation. Very helpful.
Do I need to install Toyota app for Apple CarPlay to work? I will be using my phone’s Google maps and listen to youtube videos.
I don’t want the Toyota app installed since I won’t be using its services or safety subscriptions such as SOS call center.
I have a 2024 Camry LE.
Thanks.
As mentioned at 3:06 of the video, there is no app needed on apple phones as apple car play comes pre-installed, you'll just need to press allow on your apple phone.
A little confused, for some reason when connecting in a phone call it doesn’t play through the car speakers but everything else with apple car play seems to do good. Any tips?
Pretty sure that same USB port on my 2022 is a dud. No data coming through it. Tried multiple cable on IPhone 12, Note 9, brand new Fold 4. Nothing works with it. Drove Ford and GM for years. GM usually has another data capable port in the center console. I like the Toyota Rav4 for driving, but the tech/convenience features are oddly implemented and limited even on the top of the range package.
Great video I’m having trouble setting up my apple car play on 2020 Toyota Corolla, I have apple 14 pro max, but they don’t come with chargers. The car says it doesn’t recognize this device and usb cord, thinks it’s iPod lol.
The only thing we can recommend is to ensure you are using an Apple cable. Many times aftermarket cables will cause an issue. We have not found any other suggestions which is not surprising given how new the iPhone is.
Do you have any videos on updating the firmware/software for the infotainment system?
No we do not have a video series on this question.
I'm guessing the map button is just useless if you need to have a phone plugged in to access maps. This is why Ford is way better as all their new modules have built in maps systems on the panel where you don't have to have your phone to use the map system.
Hi Jeremy! Yes, on some vehicles there is no more embedded navigation as typically embedded Nav requires updates which can be costly and some must be completed by the dealership. By using the smartphone, drivers have access to navigation apps that update frequently and automatically. Keep in mind that Toyota's new multimedia system (as featured on the new Tundra) offers an incredible navigation system that updates automatically- this will soon spread across models. We have not given up on embedded navigation, we are simply improving. Thanks for your feedback!
Rather push a chevy than drive a ford
Nah, Me and my parents btw I’m 10 years old, we just traded our 2022 Ford Escape se for a 2022 Toyota RAV4 LE with the blackout trim, Toyota is way better then ford and Honda, because of its powerful and best engines
Also my family's 2022 escape se had no map,
My 2014 camry xse had navigation. This is ridiculous as these vehicles are sooo expensive.
Wow I have been driving my car for 2 years. I figured it just didn’t have car play thank you !!
Glad I could help!
Hi! I am from Greece. I have toyota yaris cross 2021 and when I connect my phone ( Xiaomi redmi S2 edition 8.1) with my car, I cant download Android Auto because its say that this app is not available in my country. What I can do?
Hi! By any chance does the new 2022 Toyota Camry XSE have wireless Bluetooth Apple car play? Or do you still need the cord??
Hi Christian, you will still need the cord for the 2022 Camry. Wireless Apple CarPlay is coming on future generations with the new infortainment systems.
Can you please recommend which cable to purchase. I don’t know which one to get
Best bet would be to buy an Apple cable if you are looking to use Apple CarPlay. Although aftermarket versions will work the most reliable option is the Apple cord.
u sound like amanda bynes
Hey there.
My rav4 2019 doesnt show any carplay settomgs on the screen, and the iphone 13 pro doesnt connect to it at all neither with Siri.
At toyota they have refreshed the navigation but didnt help :(
If you click MENU then SETUP then scroll down, there is no Apple CarPlay option? That is strange, this did begin in 2019 for RAV4s.
Is there any possible way to install Apple Carplay in to Rav4 2018?
Hi Hung! At this point, only the 2018 Camry and the 2018 Sienna support the Apple CarPlay retrofit program. I am hoping that Toyota will expand this to include some of our most popular models like the RAV4 and the Corolla. Thank you for taking the time to comment :)
My CarPlay audio works perfectly fine with music from Spotify and Apple Music. However, when using Siri, phone, or text, the audio is only (or mostly) coming from the driver’s side. I have tried several fixes online already, but haven’t had any luck. I read something about separate driver/passenger mics on the 2023, is that why?
To help navigate you better, what is the year and model of your vehicle?
So even though my 2019 Toyota Corolla doesn’t have an app button but it does have an update available will I get CarPlay?
Marisela unfortunately no, CarPlay was not introduced in Corolla until 2020 model year so it will not be downloaded by an update.
My Toyota headunit keeps looking for satellite
My Toyota nab system keeps saying searching for satellites
Can you help with being able to use the google home assistant to say "hey google" start my truck and such?
If remote start is available for your vehicle, it would only be able to do so via a remote starter, preferably OEM and installed by a Toyota technician, or the Toyota app. Watch our video on this process here: czcams.com/video/KGJULs_bhU8/video.html
Thanks for the video, however what happens if in the setting there is Apple Car play, however the on the home menu, there is no button for projection?
Here's another video from Toyota Canada that may help: czcams.com/video/INVWTntiNt0/video.html
Good video I can use it when pluged in. But why can't we use Android Auto wirelessly?
The wireless feature only became available starting on select 2023 and newer Toyota models.
@belletoyota Damn I have 2022 4runner. Thanks anyhow for a quick response.
if the toyota has wireless qi technology, does that mean it can also wirelessly connect to apple CarPlay?
Hi there! Great question- no it does not. Currently in Canada, the 2022 Tundra is the only vehicle with Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. However, these features should be pushed across the lineup in upcoming years :) Thanks for your comment!
@@belletoyota what about the 2022 Corolla Hybrid?
2023 models have it, just purchased a new Corolla. I prefer wired tho, def a drop in depth in music tones when playing
Will apple car play work with apple phone via bluetooth chr 2021 model
Hi Aniruddha! Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is only currently available on the 2022 Tundra; therefore, your phone needs to be hardwired to the USB port with a data transfer cable :) hope this helps! thanks for your comment!
Thank you for this grear video, but I have an issue with my rav 4 is that my whatsapp doesn´t work, I mean it doesn´t read the messages and siri says "ups I´m having a problem" or "At this time I can not do what you are asking, I tried with another phones and it works correctly, I gave my son my iphone 11 to me it didn´t read and to my son the same phone read it so well coul you help me please?
I am not sure what to recommend here. This sounds like a phone or Siri setting issue as the vehicle sounds like it is not the root cause. Maybe review your Siri settings to see if anything there needs to be updated.
@@belletoyota I appreciate your answer and my son and I were thinking about that and now you confirm my doubts, so I think I´ll do that, promise to write back to tell you if it got solved thank you so much for your attention
@Belleville Toyota I´ve already solved my problem and I want to share to everyone my experience, so what really happened is that in some of whatsapp update the celphone needded to recognize my face id to get into it, so the solution was to cancel that and everything starts to do a well function...I hope this advise work for everyone with this problem...greetings to everyone on this page
I just got my 2022 Toyota Corolla hybrid, is the car unable to use apple carplay through Bluetooth through some kind of software update?
Apple CarPlay over Bluetooth is being introduced in updated radio releases starting with the 2022 Tundra. It is not available in Corolla models just yet.
I want to watch youtube on it
Might be a stupid question but can apple car 🚙 lay not work through Bluetooth or does it always require a chord? We rented a Kia k5 a few months back and apple car play worked flawlessly through Bluetooth. Seems F’d it would only work through a chord in a 21’ camry
Apple CarPlay is not available through Bluetooth on the 2021 Camry. This feature is coming with the newer Infotainment systems on more current model year vehicles.
Is it available wirelessly on the 2023 camry?
@@adbenjamin25 Most 2023 models have wireless apple carplay and android auto connectivity, the Camry is not one of them.
@@belletoyota Hi, is it available wirelessly for 2022 corolla cross
@@soyhija2250 Android Auto is available wirelessly on select model year 2022 and newer vehicles, Corolla Cross is one of them. You can review your vehicle's features and capabilities from within the Toyota app or refer to your Owner's Manual.
The only disadvantage is that we can’t plug a usb at the same time when navigation is working via apple car play. So no song while CarPlay is on. Any ways to overcome this ?
While using Apple Carplay, only Apple Carplay is available. Unfortunately Bluetooth is disabled as well as USB while Apple CarPlay is in use.
@@belletoyota please forward this to Toyota, so that they can fix this in upcoming models
I have a 2022 corolla but only the charging port not the carplay port but it shows apple carplay is an option how do i get it to work through bluetooth
A 2022 Corolla should have a port to plug in your phone to use Android Auto and Apple CarPlay (at least we know this to be true in Canada). Maybe check the cord you are using … some after market cords do not work well but the cord that came with your phone should work properly in the vehicle so long as you are connecting to the right port. No, you cannot use Android Auto or Apple CarPlay through Bluetooth in a 2022 Corolla.
Is there wireless CarPlay option available on Toyota Highlander 2022 ?
No it is not available on that model. It is coming on the next generation of infotainment systems starting with the 2022 Tundra so I would imagine it will come when the system is updated in future Highlander models.
@@belletoyota Thanks for quick response,
Just bought a 2022 Corolla Hatchback. Apple Music artists, albums on CarPlay are greyed out when driving so can’t play a song unless I stop the car! Any idea how to fix this issue? I have an iPhone 7 connected. Thx
Hi there! Congrats on the 2022 Hatchback! Yes, this is not uncommon as it is a safety feature from Apple to prevent distracted driving. You can use Siri while connected to Apple CarPlay by either saying 'Hey Siri', by clicking the Siri button on the Apple CarPlay screen, or by clicking and holding the voice command button on your steering wheel. You can use this to make music commands while driving. I know there used to be no way to change the settings so these buttons would not go grey while driving, but I am unsure if they have made any updates. I will have to check! Hope this helps :)
@@belletoyota yes I know about Siri but I created playlists and that works fine. Apple allows playlists, thank you!
Is bluetooth wireless carplay available on the 2023 camry?
Most 2023 models have wireless apple carplay and android auto connectivity, the Camry is not one of them.
anyone else get double the answers? sometimes i'll get an echo and it keeps repeating the answer twice..maybe glitch , sorry im talking about android auto lol, i got confused, i haven't tried carplay yet
How can I put it in the outlet for project if I have. A Apple fast charger
I am not sure I understand the question. If the vehicle is equipped with Apple CarPlay and you use the Apple cable you can use Apple CarPlay on the multimedia display screen. If I am misunderstanding your question please let me know. Thank you
2020 Corolla how can I upgrade my screen unit to get projection I just want to mirror my phone onto my car
The 2020 Corolla only has Apple Car Play. Therefore, instead of projection setting, it will just say apple car play OFF or ON, as she mentions in the video @1:25
does the 2022 le corolla have wireless apple car play?
Wireless Apple Car Play became available for Corollas in the 2023 models.
Will I be able to listen to my music while on Apple CarPlay?
Yes, Apple car play allows the use of the radio simultaneously or the use of music applications within apple car play itself. Playing music from within apple car play will require you to have them downloaded on the phone first. Compatible apps would be Spotify, apple music, CZcams music, amazon music and tidal.
After I turned on the apple car play in the settings there’s no projection tab shown in menu. Can I ask what is the problem?
Which model are you asking about?
Is there a way to have apple car play on without having my phone connected to the charger ?
It really depends on the model and year of vehicle you are asking about. You need wireless Apple CarPlay in order to connect without a charging cable. This feature is relatively new and only on certain models at this time.
Can I install Apple Carplay on Toyota Proace Verso?
I am afraid I am not familiar with this model as it is not one we have in Canada. I am sorry I cannot assist with your question.
I don't have option for Android on my 2019 model, is there anyway around it
You can see our tutorial for Android Auto here: czcams.com/video/hzYwU1wCsmw/video.html
Please know that Android Auto was made available on certain 2019 Toyota models and newer, not all. There are aftermarket options that may help, but Toyota does not recommend aftermarket products as unknown issues may arise.
I haven't finished the video, but how do I do this with Samsung?
You can see our video on how to set up Android Auto here:
czcams.com/video/hzYwU1wCsmw/video.htmlsi=J1xXDMDPrMUkB2C8
Im guessing you have to have it plugged into work?
Yes, wireless Apple Car Play only became available with select 2023 Toyota models.
What I don't understand is that if your driving down a road without you phone plugged in the dash will tell you what the speed limit is and change exactly when you pass a sign where the speed changes but... there's no map systems in the car. Well. Then how does it know how fast I can go if it doesn't know where I am?????
To better understand your concern, what year and model do you have?
On my iPhone I accidentally closed the notification on setting up the apple car play, how would I open up the notification manually
If you disconnect the chord from the phone, and turn off the projection/apple car play on the vehicle screen, you can start over and follow the video steps again. If your phone still does not allow this, you may need to go to your phone settings the manually allow apple car play to access your phone.
I have issue with Microphone nt connecting even though i disconnet battery Rav2021
It's best to contact your local Toyota service department and have a service advisor and technician look at your vehicle.
Didn’t work for us.
We have issues getting the Navigation app reconnected once we unplug our phone from the USB chord.
Have to turn the car off and back on to get it to recognize our phone again and reconnect to CarPlay.
If all items have been considered (i.e. using data cable, software updates etc.) and it may be best to contact your Toyota dealership, speak and see a technology specialist or service advisor, to best assist you.
Will it work with Android?
Hi there! Thanks for your question. On most vehicles 2020 and newer, head units are equipped with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Here is the link for the Android Auto tutorial: czcams.com/video/hzYwU1wCsmw/video.html
I bought a used 2020 Corolla SE and carplay will not work. I am using a brand new Apple usb cord; screen time is not enabled; Siri is turned on; software on my phone is up to date; car software is up to date; Corolla is not visible when I open CarPlay on my phone. I tried reconnecting and connecting cord a few times from both ends.
Bluetooth works fine. Car says “searching iPod” when I plug in my iPhone 12.
CarPlay works fine in my 2018 Honda Odyssey using same phone and cord.
If you have followed all of the steps and are having an issue I might suggest turning off your Bluetooth (or disconnecting the phone from Bluetooth) to see if it is interfering with Apple CarPlay.
So do u need the charger on iPhone to used CarPlay anyone .
Yes you need to connect using your iPhone cable to operate Apple CarPlay.
I have rav 4. I dont know why toyota not using the android system for the car screen since the android is an open source system. Almost of toyota clients wish to buy an external android device to connect with the screen to be as the Android, all people needs a youtube, chrome, contacts and ect..
Hello, Android Auto became available on the 2020 Rav4, here's a link to the video we have on how to Set Up & Initiate on select Toyota vehicles: czcams.com/video/hzYwU1wCsmw/video.html
hi, any updates on the new iphone15s with the usbC cable? i plugged it in to my corolla and NOTHING happens lol..i don't think carplay works now! it tells me to download that toyota app...maybe only wireless carplay works with iphone15s?
The newer IPhones should still connect with Apple CarPlay. Are you using your previous' phone's cable? If so, try using the newer cable that came with your new phone.
@@belletoyota thx i'll try a different cable.. apple cable is usbC to usbC..i need a usbA to usbC
did it work?, i’m having the same issue
@@Kimaya.33 make sure u use an MFI cable , i think that solved my issues with carplay MFI = made for iphone cables
Does this feature work for rav4 2022?
Hi Josh! Yes it does. The 2022 RAV4 has Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and the set up is the same :)
So, it doesnt work with newer iPhones that use USB-C?
As long as the one end that plugs into the vehicle is a USB, and it is data transfer cord as mentioned at 2:08, it should work. If you have a chord that has type c on both ends, you would have to use or get a USB adapter.
Is there a way to make it wireless?
Current versions cannot be upgraded to include wireless capability. This functionality is coming with more recent versions of the Toyota Infotainment systems.
For some reason my car is able to detect my phone but under my phones CarPlay settings it isn’t recognizing the car 😢 can anyone help? I have an iPhone 13
I have the same problem rn but with my 11z a few days ago it just stopped and I didn’t everything to reset and restart and still nothing. I am hoping this is an update issue and the next update apple releases fix this.
Is this only projecting and not save let’s say my txt messages?
That is correct. The system is only projecting your messages when using Apple CarPlay
I have a 2019 Toyota Corolla but I do not have projection settings ?
Hi Zeinab! Yes, this is normal. On the Corollas, you will not have projection settings until 2021. Likely you will only have Apple CarPlay capability :)
Okay but how do i do this wirelessly?
Wireless CarPlay is only available on certain 2023 models. It is coming on more models as their infotainment systems are upgraded.
So, the Rav4 XLE 2021 doesn’t have wireless Car Play? 😳
Wireless Apple Car Play only became available with select 2023 Toyota models.
Why isn’t it wireless
Hi Yoiel! Great question. The next transition for our models is wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. You should see that being rolled out over the next few model years :)
@@belletoyota Whaaat... Nooo freaking wayyy... That's insane haha. Wish that feature was available now 😒
@@spani005 Hi Steven! Yes, unfortunately the only vehicle in Canada with the wireless carplay and android auto is the new 2022 Tundra as they have completely re-designed the head unit! We are looking forward to these features to rollout across models! Thanks for taking the time to comment :)
i have an iphone 15... usb won't work! 😭😭😭😭😭
Make sure the USB cable is a data transfer cable, and not just a charging cable.
Can u setup wireless? I hate having to plug in the phone every time!
Klepto wireless connection is only available on the new model Tundra at this point. It is coming on other models as their Infotainment systems are upgraded to newer versions but just not there quite yet.
@@belletoyota so all we need is the info headunit to get updated? how do u update it , im guessing via usb since the corolla LEs don't have that connected
@@kleptodathief3946 unfortunately you cannot update the head unit for this. You do need the newer infotainment system in newer models as it cannot be retrofitted into older versions
How do you delete someones phone from Apple CarPlay?
In the Toyota car models when someone plugs in their Apple Car play its just a projection on the screen and it is connected over car play that is enabled on the software in your phone and on the cars head unit. It does not as such save the phone like it does on Bluetooth as only when phone is connected will it project the phones screen.
There are some car companies that do save devices under the option of car play devices.
But Toyota head units just save Bluetooth devices that you can delete or add to they do not have a separate list of devices under its settings that show which devices are connected by Apple Car play.
But toyota corolla prestige 2019 didnt have android auto and carplay
Unfortunately we are not familiar with that model here in Ontario, Canada. Apple Car Play & Android Auto became available on select Corolla models starting on the 2020 models.
