    Anyone tried ZapMap Premium to get Apple CarPlay?

    Trying to load ZapMap in my car today for the first time and noticed it refuses to load. I've read up on it and understand you require a Premium subscription to use it via Apple CarPlay. Has anyone tried it, and if so, do you think its worth it?

    Addendum

    Well done MG, I’ve finally received the addendum page you want me to put in the cars manual, just a shame it’s just on a bit of printer paper and I have to cut it out then stick it in. So it’s cost you some ones time to write a letter x2, envelope x2, second class stamp x2. When all you had to...

    Bluetooth phone contacts not all uploading to MG5

    I have paired my Android phone with the MG5 successfully, and tried to upload contacts a few times. However, it is not uploading all the contacts from the phone, so most recent calls just list numbers, no names. Really annoying, as I can't call my most called people as they are not listed. I...

    What Happens when it rains while charging?

    Does anyone know (through unfortunate experiences) what happens when you charge outdoors and it rains? Does it stop charging? or do you have to panic and run out to get it disconnected
