After asking about Apple CarPlay I realised I would need to change my head unit and everything however with my version of the composition media system there should still be a MirrorLink app. I have heard the head units with CarPlay have voice button where the mute button is on the older unit. With the older unit it should have a MirrorLink option however I don't have one which is strange as my Grans 2015 Polo has the same head unit but an orange colour scheme and MirrorLink, whereas mine is a blue colour scheme without mirror link.

i had the mirror link unit that can't get app connect in my 2015 gti but i have changed to a newer unit so should be able to get app connect now.
But still not activated? Is your usb port the correct one?
