CarPlay is an Apple feature that uses iPhone apps to provide communication and entertainment features on the built-in screen in your car. This feature is included in many aftermarket displays and new cars available for purchase today.
With CarPlay support now available in most manufacturers, the number of CarPlay apps is also on the rise. Once you install these apps on your iPhone, they’ll appear on your CarPlay-enabled display when you connect your iPhone. The list of iPhone apps that support CarPlay continues to grow.
