When I start my car, and a podcast resumes, it takes me to a view called “Listen Now” and its a list view of downloaded episodes. I can tap the track that is playing, or tap the “play button made of lines” icon on the far right and go in to full screen view for the episode playing.
Ideally, resuming a podcast episode would immediately go to full screen view of that episode similar to how when a song resumes playing on car start up goes to the song full screen, and not the playlist/etc. that this song is in.
Not sure if there is a setting to make this adjustment. Or if this is a CarPlay issue, or an Alpine firmware issue for my particular head unit (Alpine i509-WRA-JK).
Looking to see what other users might be experiencing. I installed the iOS 16 public beta shortly after installing the new head unit so I can't speak to how it was in iOS 15, with 16 around the corner not really important, but currently on iOS 16 public beta 5 and its been this way ever version so kind of assuming this is how it will got out as first public full release.
Please let me know if you are having the same issue, something different and if you know any solution to jump straight to full screen on podcast episode resume.
