There's a little arrow just to the right of the search bar of Google Maps when you're connected to CarPlay and Android Auto - you can press that to minimize the search bar. The brightness for the cluster is adjusted using the switches just to the left of the steering wheel by your left knee. Use the one on the right

The 2021 Jeep Compass was still on the last generation uConnect 4 system. You need to be plugged in with a USB cable for Android Auto to work. I don't have a video on that last gen Compass system but there is one with on the Wrangler that has the same setup --> kzfaq.info/get/bejne/erOempugmdvLooU.html

Is there a USB port to charge your phone via a charging cord in case your phone cannot charge wirelessly? Or do you need a cigarette lighter adaptor to charge with a cord?

@CarsWithSteve Жыл бұрын

There are 2 USB ports, a USB-A and USB-C that you can use to connect!

@susanmei9980 Жыл бұрын

@@CarsWithSteve Thank you for responding so quickly! My friend has this car and she is completely clueless Re technology. I’m pretty sure her android ph cannot charge wirelessly, but I’m not completely sure and she has no idea. I checked so many reports on this car and nobody talked about whether there are usb charging ports. One review said the wireless charging device was “optional.” Do you know if this feature is usually standard? She has the 2023 car model. I just want her to be able to charge her phone when the battery is low; and I bought her a cable to do that, for safety reasons. If she does have the wireless charger (how to tell?) if she lays her ph down on it, is there an indicator that it is in fact charging? (I’m not familiar w wireless chargers, so I can’t advise her. 😬) Thanks so much! You’ve already been a great help!

@CarsWithSteve Жыл бұрын

You're welcome! If she puts her phone on the charge pad and it's not charging then it's because 1 of 2 things.. Either the phone doesn't support wireless charging or the case that you're using is too think and the charge can't be sent to the phone.. But either way it's a slower charge and not a fast charge like you'd get with USB. There are different USB cable options depending on the trim level that you end up choosing

This kinda feels scary in a way. If the vehicle is stolen or broken into, then the thief has all your personal info that is programmed. Is the voice recongnition responsive to any voice?

@CarsWithSteve 9 ай бұрын

There is the option of entering Valet Mode which is covered briefly in this video but you can find it under the User Profile screen. That lets you lock out the screen so that people can't access previous destinations etc.. Yes voice recognition will work with any voice, but if yours is quiet you may need to speak up for the system to hear you

I’m trying to find absolutely anything for upgrades or basic information for the 2023 compass sport . Apparently no one felt the need to post anything helpful regarding that specific make and model. Find any type of upgrades is a chore. The closest videos or comments regarding my jeep is 2019 and occasionally 2021. It’s ridiculous considering it’s been out for nearly 2 years. If anyone could direct me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

I made my phone the favorite under my profile and my husbands phone as the favorite under his profile and it always defaults to my phone even when he selects his profile. Not user friendly. Usually we don’t realize it’s not connected to the correct phone until we start driving and then you can’t change it because the car is in motion so we have to pull over. Pain in the ass.
