I suppose at some point in time on have to change to the Spanish version of Siri and speak only Spanish to my Apple AI device.
We often laugh ourselves silly listening to the English version of Siri pronouncing the Spanish names badly. The only problem I run into will be the ability of Siri to understand the Spanish names of places. I’ll also be able to use Siri to find places and set up the navigation. It will be better though if I have the even larger screen in the dash.
It isn’t too bad on a iPhone 7+ with a larger screen if I want to see the maps while driving. A Better View of the MapsĪ larger view of the maps will be possible with the Pioneer Apple Carplay unit. If I want to make a phone call with the iPhone connected, once again Siri doesn’t work for me with this device. I don’t want to make a phone call, I want to send a text message. On the screen of the Renault head unit which comes with a car it shows the screen as if I was trying to make a phone call. So I should be able to start Siri and do what I need to do. I don’t want to pick up the phone and make messages while driving because that’s dangerous. Last week, for example I was driving into the city and I wanted to let my wife know I was nearly at the destination to pick her up. The problem is that it doesn’t really work if I want to use Siri commands to do things.
Pocket casts carplay Bluetooth#
With the standard radio that comes with the Renault Clio I’m able to connect my iPhone using Bluetooth or with the cable. Another good reason for choosing Apple Carplay. The rear window of the Renault Clio is a little bit small and so useful to have a good view out of the back with video. It will also take an input from a rear view camera so I ordered one of those as well. So I ordered that and hopefully it won’t take too long to arrive after the Pioneer Apple Carplay radio unit arrives this Friday. It’s another €100, but while searching for this cable I found a company selling the same thing for a little bit cheaper. Pioneer make a cable specifically for this purpose which you have to pay extra for. For the connection to the car it’s necessary to get the wires to connect up the steering wheel controls. In the box for the Pioneer SPH–DA120 apart from the unit and the cradle it fits into, there is a GPS antenna and a couple of other bits and pieces. Installing a Pioneer Apple Carplay in a Renault Clio Today I’ve gone one step further and I’ve ordered a Pioneer Carplay head unit. So it was really useful to have my iPhone technology to help me while driving. This is a bit of a surprise since we are so close to the border and the car is a French made car, a Renault Clio.
This was also useful because the GPS unit in the car doesn’t have the maps for France. Since June of this year there are no roaming charges so I could use my phone just as if I was still in Spain. The last time we went on this trip I wasn’t able to because of the cost of roaming with the phone in France. During the journey I was able to use my iPhone for the GPS navigation. It’s like a home from home where the dog gets lots of freedom walks in the forest and we all get plenty of fresh mountain air. An interesting drive up the mountain to get to the camping site by the lake to rent a lovely wood cabin. It was about 300 km and was basically a drive to Perpignan and turn left on the road towards Andorra. I went to Les Angles which is on the French side of the Pyrenees. I’ve decided I have good reasons for choosing Apple Carplay. I’ve just come back from a long trip in my car.
