We have Apple Carplay installed on our Disco 5. When I first opened it, I ticked the box that says “connect automatically” so now whenever my iPhone is connected via the lightning cable, Carplay launches.

To enable other functions such as parking sensors, you physically need to unplug the phone. Is there any way to get that box unticked so it gives you the option of whether to connect Carplay or not?

Why not just touch the Land Rover icon on the Carplay home screen?

So obvious. In my defence I’ve only had the D5 for a week and never used Carplay before 😂😂
