Discovered that in the new Mondeo if I want to listen to my iPhone music using Apple Carplay, I can't then use the built in satnav , so I'd have to use Googlemaps or similar. How stupid is that I bet hope that a software fix will allow it in future.
That's odd, can you not stream music over bluetooth? Use it like an Aux device. In my VW I stream music via my phone over bluetooth, it gives me track info etc, but can still use built-in sat nav at the same time.
Guess Apple Carplay would give you more like album art and search features and such, but try music over bluetooth
Shack specifically said using Carplay.
I'm sure he is aware of using it as BT or wired aux device, but then it becomes a PITA (and legally questionable) to change albums and so on.
Yes, aware of that. Thought is using BT for audio, means he can use built in sat-nav.

I am? Oh yes of course I am.
The iPhone should already be paired (as you can use Apple Play) - I would have thought under media/music or similar, you should have an option for music here. As some people would not use an iPhone, e.g. Android/Windows phone should support Bluetooth (BT) audio.
If searching/controlling tracks is an issue during driving, you could use Siri. I use this as a car audio system. Eg Say "Hey Siri" and the phone picks it up and allows me to voice dial/control things. I'm doing this directly with the phone, not via the cars on-board systems
