How do I use the My In&box application on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto?

The My In&box app allows you to monitor the status of your In&box directly from your smartphone. When using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, the app displays the status of your system on your motorcycle's screen, giving you real-time access to all essential In&box information while riding.

Note: You cannot perform actions on the In&box from Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which only allow you to view information related to the In&box.

What to do if the app does not connect or displays incorrect statuses?

If you encounter connection problems or incorrect status displays, try the following solutions:

  • Make sure the In&box is turned on and charged.
  • Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.
  • Restart the My In&box app on your phone.
  • Disconnect and reconnect your phone to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
  • Make sure you are using the latest version of the My In&box app.
  • Make sure that the In&box has been synchronized recently.
  • Check that your payments are up to date by visiting your user account.
  • If the In&box blinks or beeps, please consult this article for instructions. If the problem persists despite the recommended actions, do not hesitate to contact us for assistance.

 

How does BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) connection work with the app?

The BLE connection between your phone and the In&box is managed through the My In&box app on your phone. When you launch the app on Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, it triggers a scan to connect to the In&box, just as it does when you use the app directly on your phone.

 

What are the requirements to use the app with Apple CarPlay?

Users must have iOS 15 or later to enjoy all the features of the My In&box app on Apple CarPlay. If your iOS version is earlier than version 15, the CarPlay screen will not update dynamically based on changes in the status of your In&box.
