- Subaru Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Tutorial
In this video I show you how the Subaru Apple Carplay and Subaru Android Auto work. The Subaru Apple CarPlay and Subaru Android Auto are very easy to us. This video shows an example of the Subaru Outback Carplay but the set up is the same in the Subaru Forester Carplay. With Subaru Apple Carplay and Subaru Android Auto, you can use navigation apps on the display like Google Maps, Apple Maps, and Waze navigation. You can also access and use your Spotify, Pandora, and other music apps directly through the apple carplay touch screen display. The phone app and text message app in subaru apple carplay and subaru android auto is great for hands free calling and texting.

Hey Alex! I'm a brand new 2022 Forester owner and received a tutorial from my dealer. I was so overwhelmed with all the new tech and promptly forgot most of it. Finding your videos has been super helpful to me as I get comfortable with my new Subie. Thanks a ton!
Glad I could help! 😊
Too much info too fast at dealers
@@catnip4587 totally agree!
Same thing with me.
I love Alex’s information.
He’s great and he responds to my questions
LOL my dealer said there was a person who could give me a total orientation but they never returned my requests or phone calls. My salesperson gave me the basics I needed to not wreck the Crosstrek Limited I got in December of 2021, thank goodness for that and the manual and your videos! I am STILL learning the finer points of this Uber geeky cool car, retired engineer here and love all the bells and whistles!
I love that you put the USB in upside down the first time. That makes me feel better about the fact that I do it EVERY TIME! Thanks for these videos.
Happens to me all the time.
I usually try to plug it in, then think that it's upside down, so switch then realize I had it right in the first place. 😡
2 options = 3 (or more) attempts.
Hi Alex, just bought and drove home my new 2023 Outback Touring XT last night (mar 6, 2023). Today I have been looking at videos that pertain to my new vehicle. Your several videos are the BEST! Very informative. Thank You for giving me the confidence and knowledge to use all the features this vehicle has. Your presentation and voice levels are excellent. Thank You.
Alex ... Great videos. We just bought a hardly used 2019 Autumn green metallic outback with the beautiful java brown interior. By getting the 2019 we have a CD player and all the goodies of a newer Outback. 16,000 miles on the odometer, not quite broken in 😂. We are subscribed and loving every one of your videos. Our other car is a 2015 red Forester with 130,000 miles, still looks like new. We keep both cars in peak condition doing our own washing, waxing, detailing, and minor maintenance such as oil and filter changes at home. Wagner Subaru in Fairborn, Ohio has done sparkplugs, recalls, wheel bearing, and front suspension work for the Forester. Great dealership and service. Great vehicles. Wonderful videos to help us get the most out of them. 😄😄😄
Have had our 2021 Forester since Jan 21 and tried to shlog thru the manuals. THIS is way better. Thank you so much.
Thank you Alex for your videos! I’m a owner of a “new to me” 2019 Subaru Forester Limited. Your videos have helped me so much! Keep up the great work!!!
New ‘23 Subaru Outback owner- technology challenged.. I really appreciate the videos Alex, very very helpful!
Great video Alex! It's a real adventure learning all about this car, but your presentations are clear and helpful.
I don’t live anywhere near your dealership (I’m in Idaho) but I find your video’s so helpful that I’ve subscribed anyway. I sure wish the folks at my local Suby dealer were as genuinely kind and helpful as you are.
Thank you!
I'm in Idaho too! Have learned sooooo much from Alex. They fail tontell u important stuff like how to open the damn fuel door
This was super helpful Alex. Thanks so much. I just purchased a '23 Outback- quite a technological step up from my 2015 Chrysler!
2020 Outback…just now getting to learn more than I’ll use. Thanks for not rushing through your information. I’m going to go to our garage and see what else I don’t know 😂 TY
Excellent Subaru tutorial content as usual Alex. I also learned how to program my garage door opening button on my Outback as well by watching your videos. Thanks a million for helping make our Subaru lives even easier!!!
That's awesome! Glad I could help
I SMASHED the like button!
Great informative and easy to follow. Thanks
Just picked up a 2023 outback wilderness. Thank you so so much for this video! I switched from Apple car play to Bluetooth to get to Spotify but now I see where I went wrong!! You’re the best!!
Any videos on the auto rear hatch would be awesome as well!
Again, thanks so much for all your information on this channel. I relied on it while making my decision on which car I was going with. Even shocked my dealership (Alberta, Canada) when I knew about the SOS call button problems. 😂
Hatch is manual lift no power . . . what do you want for $35K
SOS CALL BUTTON PROBLEMS? Where can I learn about this?
Thanks Alex from down under Australia. On my 2019 Forester, the ”voice” button can also be used to do google searches even while navigating in maps. Eg. Check the population of the nearest town etc.. Great tutorial.
Just got a new 2024 Outback which happens to have the Tom Tom navigation option. Haven't had a chance to try it yet, but with Apple Car Play now being wireless I may never use it. Your videos are very helpful since this is the first Subaru I have had, so you are helping me learn about all the features that are packed into this car. 😊
Enjoying all your videos as I get acclimated with my 2022 Outback. Thank you because these are VERY helpful!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks Alex...enjoy your videos. We're learning so much
Congratulations on your new Outback. We are going to receive ours in January 2022 and so excited.
love this tutorial! I’ve never had any “smart” cars before, so I’m excited that i get the chance to experience it with my new subaru. This video was so easy to understand and very helpful - thank you!
Thank you Meredith! I really appreciate your comment 😊
Thanks for making all things Subaru easier for us to understand. We’re going to look at (buy?) an Ascent Onyx in a couple of days. We’ll trade in a very low mileage 2018 Subaru Forester which I think the dealership is excited to get … we will see. Thanks.
I just got my 2024 crosstrek premium and this was very helpful!
Thank you Alex for a clear and concise video!
Thanks Nadia!
Thankyou.Im still learning about my forester
Really great demonstration
Thanks so much!! I'm terrible with technological stuff - so I appreciate all the help I can get! 👍
Pretty good! Will need to look at it again to reinforce what I learned.
Wow...thanks for this vid!!
Just brought home a 22 WRX Premium yesterday and didn't realize Navi wasn't included. Have AA and ACP on my Shelby and never used it. Looks like I found a new reason to use the one on our WRX.
love your clear and precise explanations! you make it easy!
Thank you Maria!
please do keep the videos coming, the Manual is just too overwhelming!!
You can just ask Siri to read new messages while driving. Watched a lot of these videos before I even got my 2022 OBW a few months ago, very helpful. I'm STILL figuring it all out, lol.
Great Job!
Great Service. I'll be visiting your dealership for all my Subaru needs!
Even though this is a year old, I found it helpful for my new recently purchased 2023 Crosstrek.
Thank you! 🙂
Glad I could help!
Great informative video. Sincerely thank you.
Excellent video Alex. Will try this feature from today..
Thanks!
Nice to see the tutorials. I am watching different Outback and Subaru videos, waiting to be allowed to bring my 3rd Outback home (stupid sale hold :D )
Just a caution for you; anytime you put phone numbers up on the screen, you may want to blur that section of the video. Not sure if you can do that kind of thing on a video on your phone but definitely something to look into.
Otherwise, great information to know since this is different than how my 2015 worked.
Thanks!
Merci pour vos excellent tutoriels, Thank you for your excellent tutorials.
Hey Alex, thanks for the video, I'm from 🇦🇺 waiting for my outback to arrive.
Nice job. Enjoyable and informative!
Thanks Pat!
just got a. new Outback Saturday, overwhelmed Thanks Alex , continuing ed
You're welcome! Hopefully this helped make it less intimidating
you do some pretty good videos. thanks
Liked and subscribed cause Chelsea said so. Thanks for the informative video.
Great video! Thank you!!
Thank you for the good video. I am wondering if we can use CarPlay for maps and usb stick to listen to music. I see that usb will get disconnected when I connect the phone. That is not the case with Mazda-CX5.
Just picked up my 2023 Outback Touring XT. Your videos are a huge help learning the features. Could you do a video on connecting Android Auto wirelessly. It works with the cable connected to the Samsung Galaxy S9, but not wirelessly, which is how I prefer to use it.
Hey Alex,
Love your vids, always seem to find something new about my car.
Do you know how to make android auto full screen work? When i use android auto, only the top half of the screen is used, and this deters me from using it because the map is tiny and hard to see.
Hey, Alex. Really appreciate your videos. Found that a handicap mirror hanger can be read by the infrared monitor in the "brow" display - when you are in drive - and over-ride the heater settings as if you were using the hand gestures. Just a caution you may wish to pass on.
Subaru recommendeds to not have anything hanging from the mirror or on the dash as it can interfere with Eyesight
Alex - great video - on my 2022 Forester the next run shows on the dash Info display - will Apply Car Play allow that too?
Alex just subscribed and also placed a deposit on a 2023 Outback Touring XT. Could you tell me the procedure for changing from one iphone to another if both users get into the vehicle at the same time? TIA for your great videos, I find them very informative. Thanks for the time you invest.
Finally after long weight i am getting my outback Limited 2022 in metallic silver on Monday. This video is very helpful for me as I always used a GPS device mounted on the dashboard. Thank you for making this video and many will like this video. Thanks to Ms.
Peach also.
You’re welcome and congrats on your new Outback!
@@alexpmo 💕
@@alexpmo Will a GPS mounted on the dash interfere with Eyesight feature?
Hello, Alex, thank for your detailed instruction, it is very helpful. Is it possible to connect iPhone with my 2021 Outback? Thanks again!
Very helpful
Woe I think that call was setup it was a great again call
Thank you
Thank you
Thanks
Great video! Congratulations on your engagement
Thanks!
Hey Alex! I just got my 2024 Outback. I love it...but the text alert sounds through Apple Car Play are crazy loud. Is there anyway to adjust that?
Alex, I just subscribed and enjoying your detailed content. Yesterday I ordered a new 2024 Outback Wilderness with full navigation screen, and am a bit overwhelmed with all the technology since I currently drive a ten year old Prius! I too have an iPhone. On my phone I have my music saved on UA-cam in ‘watch later’ or ‘favorites’. Do you know if AppleCar Play has the capability to play UA-cam music or even videos when paired up onto the info screen? Also, I plan to do some car camping and take my wilderness down forest service roads in which I have iPhone apps such as The Dyrt, AllTrails, Gia GPS… not sure if you’re familiar with these apps and if they can be synced with AppleCar Play. If these apps can’t be synced with Apple Car Play, could you simply use a normal Bluetooth connection for car speakers? Sorry for all the questions but if anyone knows the answers, I bet you do! Thanks! Brian
Great Info. What year is this Outback?
On the 2022 modells, do you need the phone connected at all time to have Android Auto activated? Or can you set it up once and use BluTooth the rest of the times after the setup?
Hi Alex, Thank you for responding to me. Much appreciated! Was there a change in 2022 from 2021? When I plug in my iPhone 13, I get No Enable and Accept screen. Maybe I should plug in the cable each time, and then connect my iPhone. My iPhone says that I need to unlock the phone to use the apps--which I do. Sometimes it works, and sometimes I just get Bluetooth, and need to either restart car or unplug the iPhone. You also didn't mention any interface with the car's Radio--toggling back and forth between screens--and I have SiriusXM. Does that affect Apple Car Play? And, I haven't been successful in using some apps, like Audible, Libby, and Amazon music. That may be a function of something that I haven't identified yet, i.e., user error. I do not get the GOOGLE MAPS to function in the way it's shown in your demonstration--I'll try again. THE GOOGLE MAPS app was different with my iPhone 11. There's no search feature on screen. I use WAZE as I can search on my phone. Also, your display is somewhat different for texting and phone calls--no touch options in the upper right. I've replaced the cable, and could ask a dealership about a factory reset--though losing Apple Car Play also happened on my 2019 CrossTrek. Thank you for your time. I'm sure that you want everyone to have a good experience using Apple Car Play--a feature that I can't live without--when it works. Bluetooth will receive phone calls, but nothing else. Also, when I plug in the iPhone, Pandora asks about allowing it to work with Starlink. Is that normal? I don't have Spotify.
Hey Alex, I have just purchased a 2023 Outback and am not sure of and how to use the phone controls on the steering wheel. Can you please explain how they operate using apple air play. Thanks
Hi Alex. Can I watch youtube when I use apple car play? Thankss
good job
Along with this, do you have any videos I heard that you can add your car key to an apple wallet. I'm currently waiting for my ordered Subaru to come in and I am trying to learn everything I can before it gets here.
Thanks Alex!!
You're welcome!
Just watched the video and I have to say I learned more about my ‘21 Outback and Apple Carplay. Thank you.
Thanks for the help. I have new 24 outback. I dont have the car play icon on the display. Checked app button and car play icon is there but not lit up. I'd like to just plug into phone like I did with previous car without paring phone.
Hey Alex! I own a 2018 Outback and have questions about the CarPlay features: When I start my car and my iPhone connects via Bluetooth, it frequently begins automatically playing some random song that may or may not be in my playlists. Is there a way to disable this “auto-play” feature, as it’s quite annoying. It happens less frequently when the phone is connected via cable. Thanks for considering my question and for your videos.
Hi Alex...Dealer installed Upgrade. Will Bluetooth Apple Car Play work on my 2022 outback? After pairing the Icon is not present, only when wired will it enable CarPlay
Can I control / request "next song" with the steering wheel control? Or "navigate to"? My current 2015 with an aftermarket Pioneer allows me to avoid constantly touching a screen as I hate these distractions
Hey man, can you tell me how to disconnect android auto? I just want to charge my phone and not have ot connected, using my data.. i would just like it connected sometimes..thanks, love your videos.
Thank you.
Thanks for watching Frank!
Great content ! Curious is there a way to stop the radio from blasting every time you start the car? Drives my wife nuts on her Crosstrek.
So how do you old school Bluetooth the sound from your phone? I ask because I listen to a news app that isn't supported by the Starlink system.
Alex, does my Outback need to be running for AAuto to start up?
Got a 2023 Forester on order, guess I will be seeing a lot of Alex in a few weeks.
Is it possible to install Apple Car Play in my 2017 Outback or do I have to buy a whole new stereo?
I don’t have the huge screen like the ones in the limited editions. My Apple CarPlay will show my apps but like on the main screen it will only show maps, today’s calendar events and music on my phone. Never anything else and also won’t show what’s playing on the SiriusXM radio. I have to click on “radio” to view it separately. Not sure if there’s a setting for this is just how it is with the smaller displays??
Does the Apple CarPlay display the whole screen in the 2020 models? I thought I’ve seen a video where the Apple CarPlay is only as big as the back up camera.
I can’t seem to get my cable to connect to the Subaru end. I’ve got an iPhone 13, use the standard charging cable correct? There are two usb connections, neither one works!
Hi Alex, I have a question. Winter is coming up soon, and I have a 2020 Subaru Legacy Limited. When I use the key fob to start my Legacy nothing else goes on. When I use the auto start on my Jeep the front and rear defroster will go and so will the heated driver's side seat, in winter or cold temperatures. Does Subaru have that type of feature? Can I start the car and have the front and rear defroster turn on? Thanks.
Doing the factory reset worked perfectly for getting Apple CarPlay
This is great. TomTom was frustrating because it couldn't recognize a lot of addresses and even GPS coordinates. Too bad we can't connect to out IPhones via Bluetooth.
Do I have to have phone plugged in to get all my phone apps on car screen? I get some using Bluetooth. But? Lol. Wondered if I could use my DoorDash app ? On car screen?
I have a 2024 forester premium. Picked it up end of December. I have an android phone. Any tips on how to switch between maps and Amazon music in the display. My maps is the only thing i can use on the screen at one time. So much for hands free 😢
Is there anyway to add to the Apple Play apps or delete some?
Hey Alex, I have a 2022 cross tech, how do I sync my iPhone and car to open my garage door
I can’t seem to get the correct cable to plug in to the Subaru end. Is it just the standard cable that I use to charge my IPhone? I’ve got an iPhone 13.
Nice and educational video. Will be watching for more. Oh, also, your fiance is pretty. Keep her close. lol
Thanks Earl! Will do! Although, at this point I don’t think I have much of a choice. She won’t let me go too far lol 😂
Thank you for all of your videos. When using an app such as Waze while on Apple Car Play, am I still using my cell phone data or am I connected through Starlink? Sorry for the dumb question.
You're welcome, Donna! This will use your cell data. Best to have unlimited data if you can
Thanks a
I will often have difficulty switching from an app on Apple Care Play like Amazon Music to the radio. Do you know what could be going wrong? FYI - I was told I don't need to use a charging cord for my phone since it has cordless charging, so I don't. Thank you
Thank you for the great Subaru information. I was wondering if there is a permanent way to disable the distracted driver warnings on 2022 legacy limited? If I am looking around for only a very short time it flashes a warning at me. It’s starting to get annoying. Apparently I need to pay more attention to my driving’s?
Yes, you can disable this with a button located to the left of the steering wheel on the dash. The button has an eye on it. Hope this helps!
Hello Alex
Trying to adjust ringtone volume on 2024 crosstrek limited. It’s blacked out on the screen
Thanks
I like your videos and tips but I can't find an answer to an issue I am having with my 2020 Impreza Sport. I have suddenly lost my messages icon on my Apple Car Play on my infotainment screen. I have reset back to factory settings, I have reset my iPhone and I have checked my cord. What am I missing? Tysm.
Alex we have a 2022 Outback Wilderness when I try to hook my phone to the car for android auto we don't get the screen to accept it or auto show up on the screen. what could we be doing wrong?
I recently bought a 2018 Outback Limited and use Android Auto. It constantly disconnects. I've Googled it and it seems to be a known issue. Do you know if there is a fix for that?
Hello Alex,
Recently purchased a 2018 Forester. I can’t get Apple car play to work. How do I reset the entertainment system to factory default?
Hi Alex. I have a 2018 outback and even when connected with a USB, CarPlay sometimes shows up and sometimes doesn’t out just disconnects in the middle of the drive. I have gone through and made sure restrictions are off and have forgotten my car and set up again. Any advice???
