As most of the automakers played a key role in developing CarPlay's predecessor, iPod Out, it shouldn't come as much surprise that most of the automakers have also added Apple's latest offering to many of its cars. Since 2017, Apple CarPlay has been available in most of the car with the latest navigation systems, adding an extra layer of utility on top of its existing infotainment platform.
CarPlay is available as a factory option in most new cars. If your vehicle doesn't have CarPlay but you'd like to add it, you have the following retrofit option.
For older vehicles that aren't officially supported, it's also possible to add LEADSIGN CarPlay (aftermarket unit required). Unlike BMW's own implementation, many third-party Apple CarPlay retrofits rely on a wired connection, meaning not having a WiFi antenna won't be a problem. Although wireless aftermarket CarPlay is also available on the market, the presence of a factory BMW WiFi antenna is also not an issue.
Whether a third-party CarPlay module will work in your Audi, and what features will be available to you, depends on the exact product. LEADSIGN CARPLAY INTERFACE retrofit does not require any specific package, making it a great choice for a wide variety of vehicles. Unlike many other units available, LEADSIGNAUTO's is designed to integrate perfectly with your car, letting you use the factory screen, buttons and controllers when using CarPlay. Just like the OEM solution, it also supports a wireless connection.
Though CarPlay apps are shown on your car's built-in display and can be interacted with using the steering wheel and console controls, the apps themselves are still being run on your iPhone. That means CarPlay isn't a standalone system; it requires an iOS device to be connected to your car at all times.
On many systems, this calls for a wired connection, with the iPhone being plugged into one of the vehicle's USB ports throughout use. However, CarPlay does support wireless connections, which some manufacturers — Audi among them — have taken advantage of. In a Audi with CarPlay from the factory, it's enough to activate Bluetooth on your iPhone, hold the voice-command button on the steering wheel and navigate to Settings > General > CarPlay on your iPhone to pair the two.
With your car and iPhone paired, the native radio system menu will be replaced with CarPlay's alternative, showing all your available apps as iOS-like icons spread across the screen. Navigating the menu is no different from using car's own system, meaning you can use the original controller to switch between options — or, in vehicles fitted with a touchscreen, just tap the app you want to use. What's more, the voice-control button on the steering wheel can be used to summon Siri, letting you ask for directions, dictate messages or ask for music, just as you would on an iPhone.
To use an app through CarPlay, it first has to be installed on your iPhone, but that doesn't mean every app on your phone is going to be available on CarPlay. First up, CarPlay only supports apps you're likely to use when driving: navigation, messaging and audio, including music, radio, and podcasts. That covers popular preinstalled apps like Apple Maps, iMessage and Apple Music, as well as third-party offerings, like Google Maps, Audible and Overcast. Outside of those three categories, Apple has also allowed manufacturers to include their own, vehicle-specific app.
The app developer also has to enable their app for CarPlay, in part by providing an alternative interface that's better suited to use in a car. Major apps like Waze, Spotify and WhatsApp have done that, but if you use something a little more niche, you might not be able to access it through CarPlay. And even if it's available, the functionality might be limited; Facebook Messenger launched with support for receiving voice calls through CarPlay, but doesn't allow making calls or messaging. If you aren't sure whether your favorite app is supported, it's a good idea to contact the developer for clarification.
As of January 2020, CarPlay apps include:
