After synching Apple CarPlay with the Porsche navigation system, and it seemed to work at first. But quickly, CarPlay lost the ability to monitor charge level, and I constantly get the message, "your range may no longer be accurate". Which is an understatement, it has no idea of the battery charge level. This makes managing the "modest" range of my Taycan GTS difficult. Has anyone seen and fixed this issue with CarPlay?
While I'm at it, Electrify America app on CarPlay now wants me to log-in, although the means of logging in is not obvious to me.

For Electrify America, I think you need to just set up an app on the phone

I have had the same problem with the charging info. I thought it had to do with updates to the phone, but after I charge the car, it takes a while for Apple to realize what the new charging level is.
I tried re-pairing the phone with the car and that works...until I do another charge than it doesn't keep up.

Seems to be some delay in the handshake to get the updated info, which is odd, since once it is properly synched, it does get the info as the battery is draining down.

I haven't tried contacting apple yet to see if this is a fix on their end.

Good luck. Thanks for bringing this up.
