Bromsgrovebaggie Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Hello everyone. I am new to the world of Audi, picking up a new RS5 Coupe a couple of weeks ago. The handover from the salesman was fairly perfunctory; he connected my iPhone to the car and showed how to use some of the MMI features such as navigation but he didn't demonstrate some of the other features such as the News, Calendar and Weather apps. Can anyone explain how to set these features up? I might not use them but I hate to think there is something on the car that I can't use because I don't know how to. I've looked in the owners manual but I don't find it very useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have looked online for a guide to set everything up - the dealer set somethings up but I think there must have been a stage or two they missed for some of the apps not to work - but I haven’t found anything yet on YouTube. I was hoping someone on here could point me in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I use Apple CarPlay most of the time so I’m not going to worry about the Audi apps which don’t work - life is too short!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Wise Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I think thru time you will get it all to work just a case of getting familiar with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bromsgrovebaggie Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 I am familiar with it by now and there is definitely something wrong - some of the apps simply won’t launch whatever I try. However, Apple CarPlay works perfectly so I’m going to use that instead - it’s not worth taking the car to an Audi dealer to have it checked.
