Bring your maps in-dash with Apple CarPlay
By: Andrew Chen
In-car navigation just became a lot more user-friendly.
Apple recently announced with the launch of iOS 12 that third-party navigation apps will be able to integrate directly with CarPlay-enabled autos. Previously, CarPlay only supported the use of Apple Maps. This update allows any developer to create a driver-first experience using our Navigation SDKs in the over 35 million CarPlay-enabled automobiles that will be on the road in the next couple years.
Apple’s CarPlay technology brings the power of your users’ mobile phones — rich apps, personalized experiences and internet connectivity — directly into their cars’ infotainment units. Paring these large touch-enabled screens with our real-time traffic information, daytime/nighttime optimized styles, turn-by-turn navigation in 16 languages, and customized instructions, you’ll be able to deliver a more intuitive and safe navigation experience for your users.
