How to use CPTabBarTemplate on navigation apps?
According to the CarPlay developer guide navigation apps are allowed to use the CPTabBarTemplate. Thing is that navigation apps most likely use a CPMapTemplate as root template already, so how should the CPTabBarTemplate be used then? Setting a new root with a CPTabBarTemplate will probably break ongoing navigation and CPTabBarTemplate can't be pushed.

How can I stop CPNavigationSession properly on CarPlay disconnect
Hi there, I'm facing an issue when disconnecting CarPlay that the navigation session seems to be in some weird state where it is not properly finished. So when I reconnect CarPlay the "Metadata in instrument cluster or HUD" does not update anymore until I start another navigation session and stop that one. You can see that the instruction to the left on this screen recording is not updating anymore after a reconnect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sncxyJULjQk I have a modified the CostalRoad sample app to add support for the HUD cluster and to auto start a navigation simulation when CarPlay connects. https://github.com/g4rb4g3/CoastalRoads Can anyone tell me what I have to do when CarPlay disconnect so I can start a new navigation session on reconnect that has a working HUD cluster? Fun fact is that Apple Maps handles this quite nice (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpJEIyGcwdo), it somehow manages to finish the navigation session and brings up the HUD cluster just fine on reconnect. I wonder how I can achieve the same, anyone having an idea on that?

CarPlay CPListItem.accessoryImage display incorrectly on IOS 27 beta 4
I'm testing iOS 27 and face this issue that the accessoryImage on the CPListItem is no longer shown properly. It works fine up until iOS 26.5 but on 27 it is way to small. Check attached screen shot for details. Also filed FB23903072, hope this gets fixed before iOS 27 final arrives. 🤞
