iOS 26 brings pinned conversations to CarPlay Messages, letting drivers jump straight to their favorite chats. For those who prefer the simpler list of individual threads without pins, Apple has added a toggle to switch back to the classic view.

Apple released the second beta of iOS 26.2 this week, and it introduces a new CarPlay setting for turning off pinned conversations in the Messages app. After installing the beta on your iPhone, simply open the Settings app on CarPlay, look for the Pinned Conversations toggle in the main menu, and turn it off if you prefer to.

CarPlay received many other upgrades on iOS 26, including a Liquid Glass design, Live Activities, widgets, a compact view for phone calls, and more.
