Apple CarPlay™
APP VIEW (“HOME SCREEN”)
CUSTOMIZING THE HOME SCREEN
Much like your iPhone’s home screen, you can also rearrange and customize the apps displayed on the Apple CarPlay home
screen. On your iPhone, open Settings, then tap General. In General settings, tap CarPlay. Then, tap Mazda. Use the Apple
CarPlay home screen displayed on your iPhone to rearrange or hide apps.
Previously the Apple CarPlay default home screen, App View provides a list of all available apps. Use the Commander control
to highlight and press the Dashboard View/App View icon (bottom left) to toggle between App View and Dashboard View.
