    No, you don't have to pay for it. For the past few years, there has been an after market, stand-alone unit that you could add to any bike. It was a separate display that ran Apple CarPlay from your phone. Looked similar to a GPS unit. You paid for that. It wasn't a BRP product.

    For the 2024 Spyder, Apple CarPlay is built into the main display. There's no fee. However, for it to be enabled, you have to connect your iPhone to the bike via USB, AND pair a helmet comms unit to the bike via Bluetooth. Otherwise, it is disabled.

    CarPlay worked at the show in Atlanta. Don't know why it would need a software update on the production models, But, even Smoak hinted that there was an update required. OR...maybe folks at the dealerships aren't reading the manual and not pairing up a helmet.

    Theres a wireless bluetooth adapter from QuadLock I'm using in my car:

    Don't see any obvious reason it wouldn't work on the trike, but I haven't traded up from my '20 RTL. Yet.

    Just went out and tried it helmet connected, cable connected, like on the video doesn't work. There is no apple car play icon on the screen to turn on like in the video. Followed video to the tee and doesn't work.

    That’s just crazy. Shipping those things out like that. Oh well. Have a safe couple of weeks on the road.

    Same. Paired up my BT headset, plugged in iPhone, nada. Tried with iPhone connected via BT and not, no difference. Since I have not seen one single person state that this works on theirs I am assuming it's going to have to be a software update for the head unit before it works.

    EDIT: Got confirmation from Can-Am on Facebook that ACP is not working at this time, but should be in an update "within a few weeks".

    Picked up my 2024 Spyder RTL on February 16th. I am frustrated that I can't get the Car Play icon to come up either. I connected my iPhone 14 via cable and bluetooth. I also connected a Scala Rider G4 Cardio to the bike via bluetooth. I might add, one of the main reasons I traded up from my 2020 RTL was to get the Car Play. I have Car Play in my Subaru and really like it. At any rate, that is why I came to the forum to find out what I might be doing wrong. If anyone has success in connecting, please let us know. Thanks.
