I have a Pacifica Hybrid which i thought had android auto and apple carplay, but my uconnect has no Apple Carplay button, but i saw on the Alex on Auto review there is a button for that on the overland with 8.4 he was reviewing.

Carplay is for Apple devices that basically mirrors some of the apps on your phone into the touchscreen unit in the car, allows you to use navigation apps and music apps mostly like they were on your phone. IOS 12 brought Google maps and Waze to carplay instead of shitty Apple maps, super useful.

AHHH! I just figured out how to get the android auto button to show up on my Pacifica. This dash is now super amazing. Exactly what I wanted in the dash. Plug phone in, google voice commands for maps, button for Pandora. DONE AND DONE!

i'm assuming the gladiator will be the same, super cool.
