"Siri won’t change songs in car: [...]It’s not connected via Bluetooth but a cable. Up until yesterday it worked. I updated last night and now it doesn’t. I have updated the Spotify app. Closed all the apps in my phone and turned my phone off and back on. "

It may be an Issues with CarPlay:


Hardware Issues from Using USB for CarPlay:

There will be nothing damaged in the iOS by using a hardwired connection. I would recommend using rough type of cover for the USB cable --one that is fabric.


For reference...

Troubleshooting CarPlay:

A. Usual Manual:

Read your driver's manual to find out more about syncing this.


B. Try being in Park:

For many, they must have their automobile in park to get this to all pair.
