These days, most of the vehicles in the modern Honda lineup, from the CR-V to the Accord, are made available with the Apple CarPlay® entertainment and connectivity system – which drivers from Racine and beyond simply love! As it’s a fairly recent innovation, we tend to get questions about how Honda Apple CarPlay® works and how to connect CarPlay from their Honda to their phone or other device. In this guide we’ll be showing you step by step how to connect Apple CarPlay® in your Honda. Be sure to contact us if you have any questions!

How to Connect Honda Apple CarPlay®

First of all, you’ll need to make sure your iOS matches that used by the iPhone 5 or a later version, and that you’re in an area that supports CarPlay. On your phone, go to Settings > Siri & Search, and turn Siri on. Next, follow these quick steps to get your phone connected to your Honda via Apple CarPlay!

  1. Plug iPhone into the CarPlay USB port. (Should be labeled with the CarPlay logo.)
  2. If the car supports Bluetooth® connection, go to Settings > General > CarPlay > Available Cars select car.
  3. Start your car and leave it running.
  4. Ask Siri for what you need by either pressing and holding the Voice Control button on your steering wheel or touching and holding the CarPlay Home button on your touchscreen until Siri appears.
