Original Title: screenshots not coming properly when connected to Apple Car Play
iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 18
No, screenshots taken on your iPhone while using CarPlay will only capture the phone’s screen, not the CarPlay interface on the car’s dashboard.
Some car manufacturers (very few) offer dashcam features or screen recording via the infotainment system or companion apps—but that’s rare.
Yes. The reason is THAT IS HOW APPLE DESIGNED IT TO WORK.
We are not apple. We can't say why Apple made the design choice they did. That's just the way it is.
That said, pleas stop playing with your phone while you're driving.

This is incorrect. the CarPlay display is an extension of the phone's display and is captured as part of a screen-shot.
That's normal.
Its capturing both. Every time i am getting 2 screenshots.
1) With phone and infotaiment screen
2) Other is infotaiment screen.
Attaching images for your reference.

That's correct. That is how it is supposed to work.
any reason why infotainment screenshots are also capturing, when connected to apple car play?
Tim, this screenshot was taken when vehicle is parked a side and not while driving. I don't want to see your sarcastic comments in your reply and it hurts others.
