Apple CarPlay Mirroring
Anyone know of mirroring your iPhone to the carplay?
Would be cool to be parked and watch Youtube videos through carplay. (Or even while driving for passengers) I know you can do it with a jailbroken phone but wanted to know if anyone else knows of other ways. Thanks - x |

As far as I know, only way is if you have rear seat entertainment and use lightning to hdmi adapter. Then if you have LCI g30, you are able to mirror image from rear screens to the front.
Other, more realistic approach is to have additional android phone and use wifi screen mirroring. |

You can't do it, Apple won't allow it. Your options are to change to an Android device or use a dedicated jail broken phone. I almost went with a dedicated jail broken phone (not my main phone), but then you need service which would mean turning the cars wifi hotspot on (and pay a monthly fee) or using your main phone as a hotspot. It is just not worth the hassle to watch a video while parked and waiting for your kids practice to end or something. Just too many hoops to jump through to get something on the screen.
