FAQ
Do I need to jailbreak my iPhone to install CarTube?
No, not if you're using the WheelPal installation method on a compatible device. WheelPal uses configuration profiles, which don't require jailbreaking.
Is this installation method safe?
Yes. WheelPal uses Apple's legitimate configuration profile system — the same mechanism used by enterprise apps and MDM solutions. Only download profiles from the official source at wheelpal.cartube.app.
Will this void my iPhone warranty?
No. Installing configuration profiles doesn't void your Apple warranty — it's a standard iOS feature available to all users.
Can I uninstall WheelPal and CarTube later?
Yes. Delete both apps from your home screen (long-press → Remove App → Delete App), then go to Settings → General → VPN & Device Management, select the WheelPal profile, and tap Remove Profile.
Does CarTube work with wireless CarPlay?
Yes, both wired and wireless. For the best streaming performance, a wired connection or a strong wireless signal is recommended.
