For the developer, put the music player on the driver’s side so they don’t have to reach all the way over to skip a song since the people using this might not have a steering wheel that can skip/raise volume, or at least give the option to change the layout
Doesn’t work. No useful tech support
Jehen32809
I downloaded this app to have a car play experience in my older car. Supposedly in renders the CarPlay interface on your iPhone screen so you dont need another clunky after market screen. First the only useful apps supported are maps and music player, not by any stretch a full CarPlay solution. Then even though I paid a small annual subscription fee Google Maps would not work. Tech support went round and round covering the same errant rabbit holes with spurious instructions on how to solve problem. I suspect tech support is a very dumb AI chat bot because it would politely acknowledge my responses and then ask for the same information and provide the same useless advice on every round. In short even if this worked as advertised it’s barely a step up from just using the phone. And it doesn’t work. Don’t waste your time or money
Great so far

Great app. Very simple. Wish it would automatically open up instead of having to press start driving. I have an automation set to open up the app when I turn on driving mode connected to my Bluetooth. Also sometimes the side bar on left gets stuck begging the notch on my iPhone 11. Also gets hidden in the phone menu too. In some of the menu’s going back the dash isn’t possible I have to got the x to restart entering the dash. Would it be possible to save the selected music app preference? Other than that the app is great. Keep up the good work so far!!!
Developer Response
Thank you so much for your kind words and helpful feedback!We’re removing the unnecessary main screen — so the app will open directly into Driving Mode soon, making automations like yours much smoother. This update is coming later this week!We’ll also fix the issue with the left sidebar getting stuck near the notch on iPhone 11 and the layout problems inside the phone menu — those are included in the same update.If you ever notice a specific menu where you can’t return to the dashboard without tapping X, feel free to email us at support@tapwise.net with an example — it’ll help us improve that flow.Saving your preferred music app is also a great idea and we’re planning to add it soon!Thanks again for your support — we’re just getting started and more improvements are on the way!– Tapwise
Useless and and Useless support

This app does not work at all. I downloaded the app paid their annual subscription fee (because you can’t use this app without it). I haven’t been able to use the app even a single time. Every time I try to start the app it crashes immediately. It won’t even load. Just continues to ask for money. I’ve tried talking to their support and it’s useless AI responses. It pretends to be a human but then will just continue to ask you the same question in every response. It’s absolutely useless. After repeating myself 4 times and providing a video I’ve given up.
