I have a 2018 Buick Encore . I have an iPhone SE . I am using iOS version 10.3.3 . I'm afraid to update, because CARPLAY is working fine at this point . I understand that once you update to a newer version of iOS you can not go back to an older version.
Have any Trax / Encore owners updated to iOS version 11 or or higher without losing the Apple Maps and other Carplay features? Thanks

Wife uses it all the time. She has latest IOS on Iphone 7+. I have never understood why some don't like to update software unless they are rooted and running a custom ROM perhaps.

Thanks for the info on the iPhone 7 plus . May I ask about the improved Maps . Does it now indicate the legal speed limit while you're driving ?

I have an Android and we always use Google Maps in the car, so not sure. I don't 100% trust those on the maps anyway, speed limits change sometimes and better to pay attention to road signs anyway!!!!!

We have a 2017 Trax and a 2017 Spark (both with the 7” MyLink Head unit) my iPhone 8 running iOS 11.4 works fine with CarPlay on both cars. Apple Maps is still “meh”. Supposedly Google Maps and Waze will be compatible in iOS 12. Can’t wait!
