Ooos, too late😬

Will update you on progress or lack thereofšŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø
Appreciate that. Good luck. I’m one of the unlucky ones who has a bug. I did an AI query and it is definitely an issue where there are workarounds for. Unfortunately none have fixed it for me.

Digital key? Is that the same as removing the car (Mach e) from car play and repairing it?
I use Android and you can delete the key from the app on your phone and reset it. You might check your settings on FP.

Interesting thing is, I just looked at the next Beta version and what I’m currently running.

I’m currently on IoS 18 point something and v26 is available which seems quite a leap, is that normal?
Starting this year Apple is changing all their OS’s numbering to correspond with the year.

I did not know that. That makes a lot of sense. Thanks

Apple is now incorporating the year released in their OS versions. I find this quite helpful, actually.

No issues for me running iOS 26 Beta.

I’m not looking for any ā€œI told you so’s or It serves you rightā€ responses. I own that being an early adopter and using a beta update comes with risks I just want to know if anyone else has experienced this have you found a means to fix it and get CarPlay to reconnect.
I’ve tried everything except removing the beta version and recovering to iOS 18 public version.
Thanks.
Not here. I’m part of the Developer Beta and am on beta 9 and it has worked since the beginning

It’s a beta version that’s about to be rolled out at this week’s big Apple event. Not sure why the jump from 18 to 26. I think the best thing is wait for a patch to roll out from Apple or the public release then Ford will have to react to it assuming it’s on their end
Apple is changing their versioning to align all platforms (IOS, iPadOS, MacOS, TVOS, etc) under a unified numbering scheme.

I’ve been running iOS 26 beta since the first public release came out with no issues so far.

Hi @RmP , I’m in the developer program and have both IOS 16 and iOS 26.0 (23A5336a), I haven’t had any issues with the Public Beta, have you rebooted your phone & Sync, tried removing and reconnecting your phone and PAAK?
