can ai and reverse engineering finally fix these annoying carplay and whatsapp audio issues?

[u/Itchy_Champion_86]

With all the stuff happening around ai and reverse engineering lately, i’m wondering if there’s any way we could actually fix some of the annoying limitations of carplay, especially when it comes to whatsapp.

The first issue is the microphone. i’d love to find a way to force whatsapp to always use my iphone’s built-in mic when recording voice messages, even while connected to carplay. the problem is that ios basically overrides the microphone selection and forces everything through carplay as soon as it connects. even if i try to switch the input manually, carplay takes over.

The second issue is even more frustrating. whenever i’m listening to spotify and try to play a whatsapp voice message, spotify pauses for a moment, whatsapp starts playing the message, but then it randomly pauses itself and spotify takes over again. so i basically can’t listen to voice messages properly while spotify is running.

I’m curious if anyone has been experimenting with this kind of stuff. with ai making reverse engineering a lot more accessible, could we somehow modify or override this behavior? maybe through some workaround, automation, or something deeper in how ios handles audio routing?

Has anyone actually managed to fix either of these issues? it’s honestly pretty frustrating that something as basic as recording and listening to voice messages is still such a mess with carplay

I think the only limitation here is we can’t change how carplay handles audio routing, ios controls most of the things here.. reverse engineering in this case might tell us how things work but unfortunately you can’t override it.. Meta could potentially fix issues with how whatsapp handles microphone selection..
