Default 2019+ GTS and Whim

okay, i have a question for the WHIM gurus on the forum. currently, i have the sena 30k hd branded system. i have the 2019 GTS on my road glide special, but do not have a whim installed. i have the GTS enabled for CarPlay, but obviously, without a microphone, i cannot use voice options.

if i get the whim, will i lose my CarPlay functionality that i have now if i don't have my wireless headset with me? i would still like to be able to use CarPlay, through my speakers, without having to do the 'turn headset on, and toss in saddlebag' trick that i've read that many do. in other words, if i leave my helmet with the headset at home, will i still be able to use CarPlay by plugging in my phone?

thanks for the info

Yes it will work without headset. You will no be able to use SIRI and voice commands, but the rest will work

Works fine for me too, I also use CarPlay quite a bit without my headset connected.
