Like other replies, my CarPlay experience is:
* Turn on car
* My music starts playing
* Screen shows Google Maps, following location
* If it's a longer trip, I'll pull phone out of pocket and place on magnetic mount that also charges it
This is even with a 3rd-party CarPlay screen! This device sends audio to the car via the car's Bluetooth, so my steering wheel controls still work. Only real downside is the wireless CarPlay audio lag (~2s).
