I have not seen any yet. You can download the 2024 manual from the Chevy website and read about it. There are significant changes to the Navigation system. But it is sorely lacking in what you asked for - illustrations of what the displays actually look like.

In the steadily developing scene of auto innovation, the 2024 Hyundai Kona sparkles as a pioneer with its modern infotainment framework. This imaginative part of the vehicle reclassifies the manner in which drivers and travelers collaborate with their environmental factors, making a vivid and associated driving experience.

As long as CarPlay loads automatically, few will experience the "modern infotainment framework". Automakers need to take the "L" on this one.

This is nuts. This new member has another post different thread that also seems to hinge on being unhinged. A Forum member's reply to it suggests these might be an AI exercise. If it is an AI generated comment, one thing it isn't is Intelligent.

I can't wait until customer service bots start incorporating AI...

Car Play and Android Auto work fine but do not load automatically. You have to launch it by pressing a button each time you start out.

That part is interesting. I assume you mean the 2024 Google based system. On my 2021, if I have used CarPlay previously, then when I get in the car my iPhone connects, and yes, it initiates CarPlay. Its not a big deal, but actually, I wish it did not do that. When I first get in, I do not always want to use Waze or any CarPlay feature, and would prefer that it defaults to the infotainement screen menu. Like I said, no big deal because with the push of a button I can get to that menu. So far, from what I read here, the main issue with CarPlay on the 2024 is that it uses a shrunken portion of the screen because an extra layer of Google or infotainment specific icons takes up a portion of the screen.

In Android Auto there is an option to enable/disable autostart, perhaps CarPlay has a similar option.

I'm not seeing that in the car menu (for either Android or CarPlay). And I'm not seeing it for CarPlay on my iPhone. The only control for it I see is under General, and it appears to enable or disable it for specific cars, and for each that is enabled, it appears to allow me to select the apps that will available for CarPlay assuming, I suppose, that the car also will support that app. For a while my Ford F150 would not support Waze, but after a system update to the Ford, it now support it.

One point, I have seen folks refer to Android Auto and CarPlay as "apps". It may be semantics, but on the iPhone it does not get handled like an app (such as Waze or Pandora). There is no icon, and no controls are listed the way they are for apps. Instead, it shows under General, as if it is a feature of the operating system. Its not (as far as I know) downloaded from the app store and cant be deleted like an app either - though it can be enabled.

On the car, it appears on the infotainment screen as a button to initiate it. But when I view "my apps" or "available apps" it does not show up like an app (such as Spotifiy). So, I am not really clear on why its called an app - although it is clearly a software process that exists on the phone and has a counterpart in the car that can be initiated.

As long as I am rambling - I have also seen folks refer to these processes as simply reflecting what is on the screen of the phone. I think they are far more complex than that. For one, it does not match the screen - when using it - my phone shows the turn list, while the screen shows the map. The controls are placed differently and seem to work a little different. And of course it must pass control info in both directions. To me it seems as if there is some additional processing in the car between the phone and display.

^^^^
Android Auto is a seperate app that you download and install (and update separately from the OS) and you can open the app up on your phone to do configuration, but you have more configuration options when it is connected to the car.
Yes, there is more going on than just mirroring the screen.

Thanks! From what I can tell, CarPlay is not like that, at least, not on my iPhone12. That explains the difference.

I have android auto set to autostart and it does so in my truck. In my 24Z06 it does not. Have to press the AA button.

CarPlay in my 2024 loads automatically and seamless. Unlike my 2023 GMC truck which over last few months has become aggravating. My truck has 3 years everything including google assistant. My car had that for 30 days and I did not extend that. I rarely use it in my truck. Google assistant is nice on a road trip and the navigation works good in the truck.

I don't do anything and my 24 starts Android Auto automatically every time. I play music from a flash drive, so I did manually turn off auto-play on the music App in AA. But, it always activates, and pops up the navigation screen when I start the car.
