I’m getting so annoyed with CarPlay calling people when I touch the screen that doesn’t have the UI for the phone.

Most of them are usually when I touch the bottom of the screen to switch apps.
Today it was the most annoying one. I had the music app up, I went to pause it because the damn thing was only playing music out of one speaker after a phone call, and you know it, if called the person that would have been at the same place as the pause/play button.
Then I get a call back from them to asked if I called.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind it trying to make me more social, but shit, I also need my alone time.

It appears that maybe they hired too many X Tesla people. !

Weird, I’ve been on 18 since release day and haven’t seen anything like this.
I’m guessing it might be the rapid change from phone app to other apps right after a call. The UI changes but the input is still on the previous screen

I’ve also had this issue. Experienced it running iOS 18 stable on the Mach-E as well as on various iOS 18 public beta builds on a 2023 Mustang coupe. Different phones too. I agree it’s related to iOS 18.

Good to know I’m not crazy. ?
