MRA CarPlay mit Remotek One
-
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?
@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.

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.

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
@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."

Zu Para, ich Chatte mit ihm weil er sich die Remotek One gekauft hat, er Testet viel, und nutzt intensiv die MyRouteApp.
Er will am Montag das R7M testen im Zusammenspiel mit CarPlay und Remotek One, bei den anderen bekannten Displays geht +/- Zoomen und WP überspringen wie in meinem Test beschrieben…!

To Para, I chat with him because he bought the Remotek One, he tests a lot, and uses the MyRouteApp intensively.
He wants to test the R7M on Monday in combination with CarPlay and Remotek One, with the other well-known displays +/- zoom and skip WP as described in my test...!

Hallo, ich kann Para nicht finden, deshalb bitte ich Sie, die unten stehende Nachricht an ihn weiterzuleiten.Im Supportbereich unter „Bluetooth-Controller“ habe ich auf der Remotek One-Website gelesen, dass in Firmware-Version 2.X mehrere Funktionen entfernt wurden. Konkret handelt es sich um „Menü öffnen“ (Code K) und „Angezeigte Ankunftszeit ändern (Ende, Via oder Formation)“ (Code N). Das würde bedeuten, dass diese Funktionen nicht mehr nutzbar sind. Dies wird auch auf der Remotek-Website mehr oder weniger bestätigt. Dort heißt es jedoch auch: „Neue Funktion in Version 2.1.0:
Doppelklick auf Pfeil nach oben = sendet den Tastendruck „N“. Doppelklick auf Pfeil nach unten = sendet den Tastendruck „K“.“ Dies dürften die fehlenden Codes sein, die nun anscheinend wieder enthalten sind. Bedeutet das, dass die Funktionen in der neuen Firmware-Version enthalten sind? Könnten Sie bitte überprüfen, ob diese Funktionen in der neuen Version funktionieren? -

@Huibertus, Controllers from Silverfox just work with iOS and need no software at all to work with MRA.
https://www.silverfoxcontrollers.com/product-page/silverfox-h1-home-one-plus-navigation-controllerBarButtons is really nice, but I believe the project is in slowmotion at the moment. I have been building multiple of these units. If you are interested in one of them, send me a DM.

Dear Con,
Thank you for your reply. I think the Silverfox is a very nice, but quite expensive device. However, if everything works well and it can handle the right apps, I'll make the switch. However, I'd already written it off because I can't find anywhere that it's compatible with iOS, not even on the Silverfox website. -

That's what I was looking for. Thanks. Now I'm wondering what's better. I have an iPhone with a Carpuride that I'm very happy with. Should I stick with IOS and accept the lesser number of apps, or should I switch to Android and keep the iPhone in my jacket? The Carpuride also runs on Android, although I'm not happy with two different operating systems.
-
@Huibertus, The lesser number of apps is ONLY a problem when you need to use one of those others
If you are happy with the Carpuride, just stick to it. If you are buying an Android, you might as well pick one with military specs, and a bright screen (Motorola Edge 50 Neo for example) and use that INSTEAD of your carpuride to get the full native app on your handlebar. Then you can sell the carpuride and get a decent mount and charger for it.
