Can a single app hold two different CarPlay entitlements (e.g. audio + video)?
I’m reading the October 2026 CarPlay Developer Guide and want to confirm how entitlement combinations work in practice. The docs say multiple CarPlay entitlements can’t be combined in a single app, except EV charging + fueling. But audio and video are listed as separate entitlements, and audio apps are also allowed to play video. My questions: Can one app hold both carplay-audio and carplay-video, or only via an exception from Apple? For an audio-first app that also plays video, is the audio entitlement alone enough (with AirPlay video support)? Has any other combination, such as navigation + audio, ever been approved most recently? Since the video entitlement is iOS 27+, how should an app behave on earlier iOS versions if it holds both? Thanks!
