CarPlay announced by Apple is a system that integrates your iPhone apps with your car’s digital systems, allowing you to control them and your device, more easily.
Simply plug your iPhone into your car via USB, which instantly handshakes with your vehicle. You can then use the functionality of your iPhone without having to fumble around with it and take your eyes off the road.
Play your iPhone’s music through your car’s audio system or use all your iPhone’s functionality without actually touching it. So that includes playing your music, navigating to the shops, taking phone calls, reading text messages and even watching YouTube videos.
Apple’s plan is to allow third parties to build CarPlay compatibility into their apps, making them usable through the system.
Confirmed apps with CarPlay features incoming are: Spotify, Podcasts, Beats Radio, iHeartRadio and Stitcher.
Manufacturers confirmed are Ferrari, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar, Mercedes and Volvo. In the pipeline are BMW, Chevrolet, Ford, KIA, Land Rover, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot-Citroen, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota.
Will you car dictate your phone in the future?
