No Sound in Videos While Using CarPlay After Updating to iOS 18

Hi everyone,


I’ve been facing an issue since updating my iPhone to iOS 18, and it’s still present in iOS 18.2.


When my iPhone is connected to CarPlay and I try to record a video, the video records with no sound. This problem started right after the iOS 18 update, and despite upgrading to iOS 18.2, the issue persists.


iPhone 15 Pro, i have a friend with a 14 Pro and has the same issue.


Has anyone else experienced this? Any solutions or suggestions would be appreciated.


Thanks!

Still no reply from Apple on the solution to fix this issue?

I do as well and it's simply ridiculous that nothing is being said about it, no solutions are being offered, and no one is responding.

This is a huge issue. I know someone that recorded over an hour of video on a car trip only to find that none of it had sound!

CarPlay support is a joke, and there are too many variations, depending upon the model of vehicle you are using. Apple needs to address this and make a SINGLE STANDARD.

Switching to mono is a workaround that works for me but I’ll just not connect my phone to CarPlay until this is fixed. I’ve had nothing but sound issues with iPhone for years in regards to external mics, Bluetooth, CarPlay, etc. It was dumb luck I happened to be testing my external mic in the car when I came across this issue.


If I plug the USB cable into my phone, my Subaru Outback recognizes it as an iPhone and will play music from the speakers but if I record a video, there is no sound from the video until I disconnect the cable.
