CarPlay - Navigation Entitlement
We went through Apple's CarPlay documentation and, based on what we found, CarPlay provides templates for both Navigation and Audio, and our app has entitlements for both. One thing we would like to confirm before proceeding with implementation is whether a single app can expose both Navigation and Audio experiences in CarPlay, using both entitlements. Specifically, can the same CarPlay app provide a navigation experience (e.g., using CPMapTemplate) while also exposing an Audio/"Now Playing" experience, or does Apple expect these experiences to be implemented as separate apps or otherwise treated as separate CarPlay experiences? We'd also like to confirm whether CarPlay now allows an app to display a split-screen interface with navigation/map content on one side and audio controls or "Now Playing" controls on the other side. If so, is this something a single app with both Navigation and Audio entitlements can implement? The documentation explains the available templates and entitlements, but we couldn't find explicit guidance on whether the same app can leverage both Navigation and Audio experiences or whether these can be presented together in a split-screen layout. We'd like to clarify this before implementing the "Now Playing" screen, to ensure our approach aligns with Apple's CarPlay requirements and guidelines.

CarPlay Navigation Entitlement
We've been trying to get the CarPlay Navigation Entitlement for a couple years now without much luck. Did you have a similar experience? How did you succeed getting the entitlement? Part of the form requires us to submit Screenshots. Did you provide screenshots of your on-device experience or wireframe for CarPlay? How was your experience?
