Use Mement with CarPlay

Ask about existing plans, find Tasks with places, and arrange an ordered Trip for Apple Maps.

Try it in Mement
1. While parked, open Mement → Settings → General → CarPlay on the iPhone you connect to the vehicle.
2. Check Voice requests. If access is missing, use its enable action; after a denied permission, use the offered system Settings link.
3. Expand Details to inspect language, microphone, speech recognition, and the installed voice. Open Ask Mement settings if needed.
4. Prepare Tasks with saved places in Mement. Choose the Space and nearby radius that suit the trip.
5. Open Mement in CarPlay. Use Ask Mement for existing information or open Nearby to choose places.
6. Add the stops to Trip, check their order, and choose Open in Maps when you are ready for navigation.

Prepare voice before driving

CarPlay uses a connected supported iPhone with iOS 26.4 or later. The preparation screen brings the voice requirements together so you can resolve them before setting off. Opening it does not record speech. Microphone and Speech access are requested when you use the enable action.
If Voice requests is unavailable, expand Details and read the reason. A missing permission, unsupported recognition language, unavailable local speech resources, and a missing language model need different checks. Recognition and spoken replies need their own local resources. When search works without the language model, Ask Mement can still give a summary of matching local records.
Prepare the phone while parked. During the drive, use the vehicle’s supported controls; leave permission changes and resource preparation until you can stop safely.

Build a useful sequence of stops

Suppose you need to collect a parcel, return a library book, and buy supplies. Save each action as a Task with its actual place. Nearby can show the relevant located Tasks from your current context. Tasks with the same coordinates can appear together as one place.
Add the places you want to visit to Trip and inspect the order. Use the available stop actions or supported voice commands to move a stop earlier or later, remove it, or end the Trip. The chosen order is retained; it is not automatically optimized for the shortest journey.
The Trip belongs to your Mement plans and can be resumed after returning to the car experience. Changing the active Space or privacy of a Task can change which places are available, so check the remaining stops before opening Maps.

Ask about information you have already saved

Ask Mement retrieves relevant local Mement records and provides a short answer. Use it when you need existing plan information without browsing a long list. The answer depends on matching records and your permitted context; if information cannot be found or identified, refine the question rather than treating an uncertain answer as a saved change.
You can manage the Trip through its supported commands. Creating or completing Tasks by voice is not part of the current CarPlay actions. Record new work or mark it done in Mement when you are safely stopped. Arriving at a place also leaves its Task for you to complete.

Continue the journey in Apple Maps

Open in Maps sends the selected stops in their chosen order. Earlier stops are waypoints and the last is the destination. Apple Maps then provides its navigation interface, guidance, and rerouting. Check the route there and start guidance as appropriate.
If Maps cannot open, the saved Trip remains available for another attempt. Ending a Trip changes your trip plan, while the underlying Tasks keep their own completion state. This is useful when you postpone one stop: leave the Task active and return to it in a later plan.
