Hi, I am new to the forum; however, the dealership has been no help whatsoever. Also, I have an A4, but you guys at this forum seem to be much more helpful than anywhere else.

It is a 2018 A4, and the "Audi Smartphone" option has disappeared from my menu; therefore CarPlay no longer works.

I have attached some screenshots that might help someone help me.

Thanks in advance

Do you have the Audi smartphone app installed when you plug in? If not you might need to install/reinstall for it to also auto instigate car play. (Im not an iOS user though so only a suggestion)

I will try that today, I did not think that you needed an application to run carplay, according to all documentation, you just plug in your iPhone, and it worked previously without an app, but can't hurt to try. Just somehow, the icon on the car's screen/menu disappeared, I suspect it happened after my last service, I just did not notice.

yeah I wouldnt have thought it was necessary but then this is Audi so you never know I cant even get Android auto working wirelessly
