• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Good improvements for both camps!
 
The Public Beta is out so you can upgrade and use it now.

This may be a dumb question but is the upgrade on the phone or the infotainment system? If it’s the infotainment system, do you have to take it into the dealer?

This will be an iOS upgrade, nothing should need to be changed on the car.
 
I signed up for the IOS 13 beta on my son’s phone and tried CarPlay. Really nice! One of my IOS 12 carplay issues with UVO is that it have to press a few buttons to jump from maps to radio and back and now they give you a nice view of the maps with the radio on the same screen. Looking forward to the official upgrade in September!

Pardon my ignorance...but what does GA mean?
Generally Available. The term used when the software is officially able to download and use by the public. Basically no longer in testing. So if you go to your General Updates you can upgrade your phone if it’s approved for IPhone operating system version 13.

Ahhh... Got it. Thank you.

Google's supposed roll out has been a mess and the Telluride does not even support full screen for Android Auto without an update the the system. I have a Pixel and the new Androis Auto has not even been pushed to my device. This is my first vehicle with Android Auto and I've been on Android for as long as I can remember. Android Auto sucks so bad that I don't even use it in the vehicle and am seriously considering switching to an iPhone. IMO, Google has made a mess of the Android infrastructure and it's too much of the wild west (to many Android flavors, to many different devices, and way to much to try and integrate seamlessly with anything else).
 
A little frustrated that the new IOS 13 CarPlay home screen with Maps and Radio on the same screen is only valid for Apple Maps. Does not appear to work with Waze or Google Maps yet. But the nav experience is pretty nice. All of this has nothing to do with Kia or UVO, but it's nice that the Telluride has CarPlay standard.
 
Question.... Can you source/select a map app (waze, apple, google) in the Head-Up Display? Or is this just limited with the KIA SatNav software?
 
I'm waiting for this week's release of iOS 13.1 … it was a fast release by Apple to address some critical bugs. I almost always wait for the .1 or .2 release :)

HUD only provides turn by turn directions for the Kia/UVO built in Nav app. AA or CP maps do not provide any directions in the HUD. It's a big miss IMHO!

If you haven't enabled the new AA in the settings for the AA app, then it won't display the new interface unless told to do so. Open up the app, then go to settings, the first selection should be "try the new android auto", turn that on and you will have the new UI

I know this but the option has not been pushed out to all Android users/devices. Another frustrating thing about this roll out.

Thanks. So you really have to keep up with the updates of the UVO software. Do you know what mapping software KIA uses? I know someone telling me that their Honda satnav is provided by Garmin
