cambridgehank Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I am using an iPhone XS with latest IOS. While driving, I use CarPlay for my music. I have set the sort in the phone to by title. Now the problem is the sort order of albums in CarPlay, they are sorted by artist. We have 15 albums by Aaron Neville and I get frustrated trying to find an album by Marvin Gaye, I have to scroll through to many albums. It was suggested in the Mercedes forum that GraceNotes might be the issue. Yes, I know I can use SIRI to find the album, but sometimes SIRI gets it wrong. I have also resorted to creating a playlist of my favorite albums. CarPlay has no problem with sort order of Playlist. Any thoughts on this minor issue? Link to comment
TJtennispro Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Unfortunately that's a Mercedes issue as it's very easy to sort without scrolling in a Honda. cambridgehank 1 Link to comment

If you scroll rapidly, CarPlay will scroll through letters of the alphabet instead of individual artists, just like on the old scroll wheel iPod. I can navigate to a Weezer album pretty quickly that way. cambridgehank and TJtennispro 1 1 Link to comment
