First of all … Happy Holidays to all especially Guido

Using CarPlay today I found some information - time, altitude etc hidden in the top centre of screen.

seems to be only us who drive on the left side.

 

I'll have to look for this one.

Question: what device are you using with CarPlay? Me, I have the Chigee AIO-5 Lite.

As I also use Scenic when in the cars (Kia Sorento and '19 Ford Ranger) I'll see if this info is visible.

It'd be handy to view altitude given that a lot of my trips away are in NE Vic, SE NSW (Snowies, Vic High Country, etc.).

The CarPlay unit is my Mercedes stock standard dash unit.

I’m in Sydney and my fav rides are the Snowy and Mitta Mitta Omeo areas - 115 kilometers with 1,400 corners !

OK. Done Mitta heaps of times but not using Scenic just yet. What put me off using the Garmin Zumo XT was it trying to get me to turn right off of the Omeo Highway about 50km south of Mitta to get to Dartmouth when there were no roads going that way.

I haven't had that problem with Scenic since swapping to the Chigee and CarPlay. But I've yet to do any big rides using the new mapping  system, so for me, the jury is still out on that.

I’m aware of the compass, elevation and scale disappearing behind the directions on right hand drive CarPlay systems. Will look into it after the holidays.
