User level: Level 1 (6 points)I have a new golf cart with Apple CarPlay- it work great but I cannot find an app or rangefinder that works through CarPlay. This Is weird as google maps works fine and it’s based on the same thing…… any ideas? I have apps on my phone that work great on the phone but are not in screen when in CarPlay- thank you

App Developers would have to create the app to support CarPlay before you would see availability there. CarPlay support requires additional UI for Hands-free use.
By doing a quick search of the App Store, I have not found any developers that support CarPlay with their rangefinder apps. Some do support the Watch where you can see the range just by looking at your wrist, but not within a vehicle, or specifically Golf Cart in your case. Not a bad idea, maybe provide that suggestion to the Developer of the app you use the most on your iPhone.
