In the past, each automotive brand had their own infotainment systems which were wildly different from one another and caused some confusion among car owners. While those infotainment systems remain, the playing field has largely been evened out with the inclusion of Apple CarPlay on over 300 new models as standard or available equipment.
Apple CarPlay offers the ability to connect compatible smartphones to a vehicle’s infotainment screen via a lightning cable. When connected, the infotainment screen will display any apps that have been downloaded and are supported by Apple CarPlay. Drivers can then use their touchscreen and vehicle controls to easily access apps while keeping their eyes safely on the road. Many Apple CarPlay supported apps have been adjusted to offer voice-activated commands and controls making them even safer for drivers to use.
