Thank you!! I’ve had my Telluride for 3 days and hadn’t figured out how to cancel a route! I’ve been searching and searching! Whew! So glad someone finally mentioned it!!
Yeah, it's a weird process to do it though. 1. Launch Android Auto or CarPlay 2. Press the Radio button on the side of the screen and select the station you want to listen to 3. Launch back into Android Auto That should have AA or CarPlay up while the radio is running!
You are an amazing reviewer!!! I gotta quick question Will this system have a chance to have google assistant or such apps to be downloaded or some device to allow it on the screen in future?? Thanks in advance
I have a 2023 Telluride S model. Is there only one media plug? I want to be able to use the android auto feature for Google navigation but I also wish I had another media outlet to plug in a thumbdrive loaded with all my music. Is there a way around this? Can I access my samsung music app and play my music thru that? I seem to only be able to access spotify.
Only 1 in your trim level unfortunately.. Easiest thing to do here would be to load all the music onto your phone directly or using an SD card expansion and then play it that way when you're connected to Android auto
Just in daily driving, I like my map showing on my main screen & I like different options on the smaller split screen. I took Telluride in for a clean-up. When I got it back, the smaller side of split screen was showing weather. I loved it. After about 3 or 4 days, it disappeared & started showing radio info. How do I set up &/or change my split screen? Where do I find the weather options? I have an SX. THANK YOU!
Can you remap the voice button on the steering wheel to activates Google assistant or Siri? When I press the voice button, I get the KIA voice assistant.
so...what does split screen do?(android auto) Are you able to run spotify on the right smaller screen while maps is open on the left? I wouldve liked to see it in action.
Unfortunately nothing just yet. The smaller split screen is just for the features of the car like weather, radio/SiriusXM, Sounds of Nature etc. You can't have any Android Auto or Apple app show up there.. which would actually be a pretty cool feature
You seem very smart, perhaps you can help me. I am old and trying to get an ipod shuffle to work via USB and the car doesn't recognize it in media or am I looking at the wrong spot?
Some older devices won't work in the Telluride. Older iPods/MP3 players usually require to be connected with a 3.5mm cable which the Telluride doesn't have
@@CarsWithSteve thanx. I have the USB adapter and it's worked forever in my 2012 chevy equinox then I just got this amazing car and was wondering if I was doing something wrong lol thanx again
@@Djshhshzhsjsksk wish it was better news! I find that newer cars tend to not work properly with older devices. Always the option of moving the music to your phone and connecting over bluetooth
Please tell me how to turn off nature sounds, they come on automatically when I start the car so I have to go to nature sounds and turn it off every time I start the car
Have you tried changing to audio sources to another radio station or SiriusXM? If you've changed to another audio source and it's defaulting back to sounds of nature you can also try performing a vehicle reset
Thank you so much for answering… also another question 🙋🏻♀️ When do we do system updates and how do we find them… I heard someone talking about updates and that it took a while to complete and you leave the car running?
@@markkimberlysimmons2336 System updates are shown in this video briefly around the 15:40 mark. Go to Settings --> General On the SW Info/Update screen there's a button that says update!
Only had it for a few days but found an irritant. NO BT ANDROID AUTO. Hit MEDIA and I have three things I listen to, FM, Spotify and my big phone playlist -8gigs. My Explorer I traded in did it all fine but now I have to do Spotify with cable in Android Auto. So to listen to FM or my playlist I have to uncable, restart it, and if I want to go back to Spotify, do cable, reload AA to spotify. Is there a dongle or something to fix this Kia fail?
It is odd that wireless Android Auto/Car Play aren't standard in the higher trim levels. There's a company developing a stick specifically for this purpose - I should have a pre-release model in hand to review in the next few weeks and will let you know if it actually works
You don't "have to" plug the cable back in to go to Spotify. You can press the "media" button on the dash, and select Bluetooth audio. You might have to start Spotify on your phone, but dynamic controls - such as steering wheel selectors will operate your Spotify at that point. Hope this helps, and I agree, no wireless Android auto is a super let down....
When on Android auto it give you the split screen which sucks; Is there a way to go to full screen? I believe you said at 8:34 that you can but didn't show how HELP!
It's not just you! There have been issues with Android Auto not going full screen as it should across multiple manufacturers. You can contact Kia Canada and let them know - if they get enough feedback, changes can happen!
Great video. Im trying to find an answer about user profiles and haven’t had any luck. Maybe someone here can help: what is the point of user profiles? Does it connect to the seat memory setting? Do the profiles save radio stations , car audio set up, or your settings in the infotainment system? So like if I’m driving and hit my seat 1 memory , does that change profile automatically to me? Then, when my husband drives and he selects seat memory 2, does the profile automatically change to him and all his settings? I just want to know what the benefits are with the user profiles.
Thanks Anne Marie. You're pretty close with the user profiles. The idea is that you can select different profiles that will remember things like user radio presets, connected devices and things like that. Seat memory isn't tied to the user profile though
Hey Phil! If you haven't figured out the SiriusXM list - when you move into SiriusXM there should be a channel list that pops up near the top right of the screen. I don't believe there's a way to make a list view the standard option though
If you’ve tried both ports on the car and get nothing then you can try using an Apple or Samsung branded USB cable. I find older ones or off brand sometime won’t work properly Edit: If that doesn’t work, make sure your CarPlay/Android Auto is enabled. On the iPhone go to settings -> general -> CarPlay. Find your car and make sure it’s enabled Android auto, search for android auto, go to settings and make sure it’s turned on
@@CarsWithSteve Thank you for your reply. I would then like to know and I'll post this here and on your web how to recalculate a direction from what UVO has set up if possible. For instance, going down to Florida there are many different routes to follow, we have a specific one and like to stay away from 95 south. It seems they want us to go 95 but we don't want that. Can we type in the route we want to take in order to follow the navigation screen turn by turn and if so, how do we set that up? Thank you!

Hey Arlene! The best way to do that would be to add in waypoints or midway stops on your route. Add in a few that would take the route that you’d prefer to get there
@@CarsWithSteve Thank you Steve, did see a waypoints didn't know how to use it so now we'll throw in some points of interest and go from there. Thanks hope this gets us on the right path..... your site is very good in learning many new features Kia has in the Terruride.

Suggestions on using the radio and apple maps at the same time? I just got a 2022 Telluride and if I click the Radio button and have the music play, then I click the Media button to set up maps on Carplay, the radio turns off. The same in reverse.. if I am using Apple Maps on Carplay, then click the Radio button, the map goes away and it turns the radio on. Then, if I click Media again, the radio turns off it takes me back to the main Carplay screen and not the maps I was just viewing. It is super annoying. Found a hacky solution online saying to program the “mode” button on the steering wheel to be FM and then program the star button to Phone Projection. This works but is super non-intuitive. All I want to do is view Apple CarPlay for maps and listen to FM music. I am having a hard time figuring out why this is such a struggle.
That hack that you used is probably the best way to do it. I'm back at a Kia dealer in a few weeks and can play around a bit more to see if there are any other options though
Different underlying tech unfortunately. There's a device I have incoming that's supposed to give wireless capability. Will post a video once I've had the chance to give it a try!
I have a 2022 SX model but my touchscreen under vehicle settings just only have climate, lights doesn’t have driver assistance or seats, do I need to take it back to dealership because the touchscreen really doesn’t have much features
Hmm that’s odd. The Telluride screen/features should be the same 🤔 without seeing it I couldn’t tell you for sure. But if you upload a video and share it or reach out privately I can make some other suggestions! carswithsteve.com
I plugged in both Apple car play which looks so nice and vivid, it takes up the whole screen. As for Android auto, it looks like it's not full HD plus, it doesn't go full screen like Apple Car Play SMH.
For some reason Android Auto doesn't always want to go full screen even if you've selected that option under Device Manager. I've emailed Kia on it and am waiting for a response
@@CarsWithSteve another thing I noticed is your ambient mood lighting option to dim while driving is not available in the U.S. Very disappointing as I have always tried to get the ambient lighting brighter when out of park but it automatically cuts the britness to about 20 percent after putting the vehicle in drive.
I was just told that that feature is an error from the Kia telluride forum. Can you confirm whether or not the dim while driving feature actually works?
Thank you!! I’ve had my Telluride for 3 days and hadn’t figured out how to cancel a route! I’ve been searching and searching! Whew! So glad someone finally mentioned it!!
Ah the little things, you’re welcome! Hope you’re enjoying the telluride so far
Thank you so much for this tutorial; very thorough so I can teach my husband who is decidedly not a tech person!
