MRA CarPlay mit Remotek One

[Hubert Thoring]

It doesn't work with the Carplay, it controls directly and only the mobile phone, if the mobile phone display is open in a shelf you control it and you see that on the display like zooming +/-

Es geht nicht mit dem Carplay, es steuert direkt und nur das Handy, ist das Handy Display offen in einer Ablage steuerst Du es und das siehst Du auf dem Display wie das Zoomen +/-

Es bietet Ihnen begrenzte Funktionalität mit CarPlay, solange Sie das Telefon mit aktivem MRA eingeschaltet lassen (wie @Hubert-Thoring sagte). So arbeite ich mit dem gedimmten Telefonbildschirm, um Strom mit dem Telefon in der Ladetasche meines Fahrrads zu sparen. Die Funktionen, die Sie auf CarPlay haben, sind Doppelklick (DC) links (Zoom und Ausrichtung - drei Optionen); DC Rechts (Überspringen Sie den nächsten Wegpunkt); DC Down (Änderung ETA - nächster Formpunkt, Über Punkt oder Ende); sowie manueller Zoom mit + und -; verwenden Sie DC links, um zur dynamischen Ansicht zurückzukehren usw. Funktioniert ein Genuss für mich und gibt mir genug Funktionalität. unkt, Über Punkt oder Ende); sowie manueller Zoom mit + und -. Funktioniert ein Genuss für mich und gibt mir genug Funktionalität.

It will give you limited functionality with CarPlay as long as you keep the phone on with MRA active (as @Hubert-Thoring said). This is how I work with the phone screen dimmed to save power with the phone in the charging pocket on my bike. The functions you have on CarPlay will be Double Click (DC) left (Zoom and Orientation - three options); DC Right (Skip Next Waypoint); DC Down (Change ETA - next shaping point, Via point or finish); as well as manual zoom with + and -; use DC left to revert to dynamic view etc. Works a treat for me and gives me enough functionality.

Genau so habe ich mir das gedacht mit der Handy - CarPlay Kopplung, habe zwar kein CarPlay, konnte es somit auch nicht rundum testen, aber das Erlebnis habe ich 1:1 an meinem iPhone Xr Display am Motorrad. Also auch so mit CarPlay eine gute einfache Lösung.

That's exactly what I thought with the mobile phone - CarPlay coupling, I don't have CarPlay, so I couldn't test it all around, but I have the experience 1:1 on my iPhone Xr display on the motorcycle. So also with CarPlay a good simple solution.

Thank You for your information.

I'm still very interested in the Remotek 1 because of its price, size, and the fact that it's truly wireless (battery). However, I'm worried that there's no iPhone app for it and because of the text on the Remotek website that says, "Important: This (or any) remote controller does not work properly with most apps in CarPlay or Android Auto." Is it still true that Google Maps and Waze can't be controlled with the Remotek? Does your Remotek works still good with the MRA app?

So, my Remotek One still works perfectly with MRA, zoom +/-, and skipping WP, etc. There's also an app for Apple users, which is mentioned on the website, but this app is only for downloading a firmware update. All other information is also available in the manual on the website.

A friend has confirmed it's available for CarPlay, User, "Papa" im GS-Forum.com

@Huibertus, it ( like any other controller attached to your phone) will control your phone, not your Carplay device. Most functions however will be replicated by the app to your Carplay device. Like if you zoom on your phone, your carplays screen also zooms. However when your phone lays idle, or app is not in focus, nothing will happen on your carplay screen.

[Huibertus]

Thanks, Con. I've tried to read up on the various options, and I'm aware that the MRA app needs to be open. I don't think it's a huge problem. For me, the advantages of the CP far outweigh this. However, there aren't many options that support iOS. I can only find the Barbuttons (a bit crude in design) and the Remotek 1. I want to compare the latter two again.

[Huibertus]

@Hubert-Thoring Thnx Hubert. I will visit the links you send me. I am very curious.

Hi Hubert,
I've had a quick look but can't find "Papa's" entry. I can find your twin brother, "MS_MagnaR43."
