I haven’t had any problems with 18.4 now downloading 18.4.1 and risking it as it says it is an update primarily to make CarPlay in certain cars. I hope I don’t regret it later.

I updated my phone last night and ran into an issue this morning on the way to the office, before I even left the garage at home.

I had a CarPlay connection when I got in the car and opened Waze through the PCM to determine the quickest route. About 15 seconds later Waze closed and the green CarPlay icon disappeared. I tapped on the CarPlay tile and that took me to Device Manager which showed my phone, but would not connect using the third connection type icon (CarPlay).

I rebooted the phone thinking this might help, but it did not. I was already driving so turning off the car wasn’t an option. I made one stop for coffee and when I re-established operational readiness CarPlay worked again. 🤷‍♂️

I've learned to not jump through hoops when an unexpected thing happens. Often a walk away lock and unlock on return resolves it.
