Apple CarPlay began as a nifty feature that some drivers used. Now, it\u2019s an integral part of a car\u2019s user interface. Customers will make decisions on whether to buy a certain car based on its CarPlay<\/a> integration, or lack thereof. And it\u2019s about to get even more engrained into cars\u2019 infotainment systems, with the latest iOS update.<\/p>\n

This new Apple CarPlay will not only allow you to mirror your phone onto the infotainment screen but actually control other aspects of the car with it. For instance, you will be able to adjust climate controls, add widgets to the screen, and even control your home\u2019s connected devices. All of which will be built into the car\u2019s infotainment screen and will be adjusted to fit each and every car it\u2019s available in. Essentially, it takes over for the car\u2019s own infotainment.<\/p>\n

It can also replace the car\u2019s digital gauge cluster. For cars with fully-digital gauges, Apple CarPlay will be able to completely change its UI, replacing it with Apple\u2019s own customizable gauges and screens. Again, it\u2019s been designed to perfectly fit each and every car it\u2019s available in. Additionally, it will also offer a variety of customization options that can help tailor-make the gauges to you. You can also bet your ass there will be upgraded visuals for sale on the app store.<\/p>\n
