CarPlay UI Issues in iOS 26: CPListItem accessoryImage Misplaced and Display Problems

Starting with iOS 26, we've noticed that the accessoryImage in CPListItem is not working as expected in CarPlay. Previously, accessoryImage would appear in place of the accessoryType, but now it appears awkwardly next to the detailText, and the image itself is not rendering properly.

We have submitted feedback to Apple multiple times, but the issue still persists in the latest beta releases.

In general, there seem to be several CarPlay UI problems introduced in iOS 26. For example:

  • In CPPointOfInterestTemplate, the pinImage is displayed at an excessively large size.
  • Scroll positions in lists behave unexpectedly.
  • CPInformationTemplate allows infinite scrolling, which seems unintended.

Please take a look into these issues.

Thank you.

HI, the new accessory image placement in the subtitle line is expected behavior when a subtitle string is provided. The color/rendering issue for the accessory image is a known issue that will be corrected in an upcoming beta.

Please submit feedback reports for your other issues, thanks!

The same issue persists: previously, setting accessoryImage would display the image on the far right. Now, it appears right next to the detailText, and the image is extremely small. I am already using the latest beta, but the problem still exists.

Please submit feedback reports for your other issues, thanks!
