Luckily I had a spare iPhone 6S around to test this out. Bad news is you need to jailbreak it. I used unc0ver and Cydia Impactor to do so, you can find them here: https://github.com/pwn20wndstuff/Undecimus & http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/

Once you have successfull jailbroken your iPhone you need to add chariz.io & rpetri.ch repositories to Cydia and finally get the Carbridge app. https://carbridgetweak.com/

You can then enable every app for CarPlay you ever wanted to as also delete the ones you never needed anyways.

I wanted to have the BimmerLink gauges on that display. It's nice that there are often ways to achieve such things

You can code "screen mirroring" and then use android to 1:1 display your phone.

Coding values attached, thx to BAN_M2C

Super useful! Owned my car for almost a year and did coding but did not know about this option. I have coded this in and I now have mirroring setup on my S8+ and can use waze, youtube, etc. Thank you!

But not without using your phone's screen. That's the major downside to mirroring.
