CarPlay is a technology developed by Apple Inc. that allows users to connect their iPhone to a compatible car infotainment system and access various iPhone features directly from the car's dashboard display. Introduced in 2014, CarPlay provides a simplified and safer way for drivers to interact with their iPhone while driving, minimizing distractions and enhancing the driving experience. With CarPlay, users can make phone calls, send and receive messages, listen to music, use navigation apps like Apple Maps or third-party apps such as Google Maps and Waze, and access Siri for voice commands—all through the car's touchscreen, knobs, or voice controls. CarPlay also supports hands-free operation, enabling users to keep their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road while using their iPhone's features. CarPlay is available in a growing number of car models from various manufacturers and continues to evolve with updates and new features to improve functionality, compatibility, and integration with the latest iPhone models and iOS releases. Overall, CarPlay provides a seamless and intuitive way for iPhone users to stay connected and entertained while on the road.
