Hands on apple carplay

Use CarPlay with your iPhone

Learn how to set up and use CarPlay.

What is CarPlay?

CarPlay is a smarter and safer way to use your iPhone in the car, allowing you to stay focused on the road. When you connect your iPhone to CarPlay, you can get turn-by-turn directions, make calls, send and receive messages, listen to music, and more.

With iOS 13 and later, the CarPlay Dashboard brings a simpler view of the road ahead. The dashboard gives you a single place to keep track of Maps, audio controls, and Siri Suggestions, which provide easy access to things like your Calendar events. You can even use the dashboard to take control of your HomeKit accessories, like door openers.

Make sure that your country or region supports CarPlay and that your car supports CarPlay. If you’re unsure whether your car supports CarPlay, contact the vehicle manufacturer.

Set up CarPlay

1. Start your car, then make sure that Siri is on.
2. Connect your iPhone to your car:
   • If your car supports CarPlay with a USB cable, plug your iPhone into the USB port in your car. The USB port might be labeled with a CarPlay icon or a smartphone icon.
   • If your car supports CarPlay both wirelessly and with a USB cable, plug your iPhone into the USB port in your car. An alert on your iPhone will offer to connect you wirelessly on your next drives.
   • If your car supports only wireless CarPlay, press and hold the voice command button on your steering wheel. Make sure that your stereo is in wireless or Bluetooth mode. Then on your iPhone, go to Settings > General > CarPlay, and select your car. Check your car manual for more information.

Use Siri to control CarPlay

Depending on your car, there are two ways you can use Siri to control CarPlay:

• Press and hold the voice command button on your steering wheel. Then ask Siri a question or to do something.
• Touch and hold the CarPlay Dashboard or CarPlay Home button on your touchscreen. Then ask Siri a question or to do something.

Siri also makes suggestions in CarPlay for what you might want to do next, such as drive to your next meeting. Siri Suggestions and CarPlay work seamlessly to keep your favorite apps at your fingertips.

If you have HomeKit-enabled accessories, like a garage door opener, you can use the Siri suggestions that appear on the CarPlay Dashboard, or simply ask Siri to do things like «Open the garage door» when you get close to your house.

Let Siri announce messages

With iOS 15, Siri can announce your incoming messages in your car. With this feature turned on, Siri plays a tone, then announces the sender’s name and reads the message. If a message is long, Siri announces the sender’s name and says only that they sent you a message. You can ask Siri to read the full message.

To turn on Announce Messages from your iPhone:

1. Open the Settings app, then tap Notifications.
2. Tap Announce Notifications.
3. Tap CarPlay, then turn on Announce Messages. From here, you can also change when you want announcements to start.
4. Tap Back to manage which messages Siri reads. Tap Messages, then select either Time Sensitive and Direct Messages or All Notifications.

To turn on Announce Messages from your car’s display:

1. Open the Settings app in CarPlay, then select Announce Messages.
2. Turn on Announce Messages.
3. Select Announce Options to choose whether messages will be spoken or not at the start of your drive.

Use your car’s built-in controls to operate CarPlay

Cars supported by CarPlay should have built-in controls, such as a touchscreen, rotary knob, or touchpad. To learn how to operate your CarPlay display, check the manual that came with your car. You can also use Siri to control CarPlay, even if you have built-in controls.

Arrange your CarPlay apps

While using CarPlay, the display in your car will show your available apps. To add, remove, or arrange the order of the apps on your iPhone:

1. Go to Settings > General, then tap CarPlay.
2. Select your car. Then tap Customize.
3. Tap the Add button or Delete button to add and remove apps. Tap and drag an app to change the order the apps appear in.

The next time you connect your iPhone to CarPlay, the new order of your apps should appear on the display. Only apps that are supported by CarPlay will appear on your display.

Change your CarPlay wallpaper

1. From your car’s display, open the Settings app in CarPlay.
2. Select Wallpaper.
3. Choose the wallpaper that you want to use, then select Set.

If you have an issue with a third-party app, try to contact the app developer. Learn what to do if CarPlay doesn’t work like you expect.

Car keys and CarPlay.

With car keys, you can now unlock and start your car with iPhone. And CarPlay gives you the ability to safely use what you love about your iPhone while you drive.

Car keys

Unlock and start your car with your iPhone.

Beginning with select new 2021 car models, you can now unlock and start your car with iPhone. Sharing keys with friends or family is easy too. You can also create restricted profiles, perfect for new drivers. Car keys will even work for up to five hours after your iPhone battery runs out. 1

CarPlay

The ultimate copilot.

CarPlay is a smarter, safer way to use your iPhone while you drive. You can get directions, make calls, send and receive messages, and enjoy your favorite music. All on your car’s built-in display. And with iOS 14, CarPlay introduces all-new app categories and custom wallpapers for your CarPlay Dashboard.

Let your iPhone
show you the way.

The power and simplicity of Apple Maps is available in your car. CarPlay can predict where you’re going using addresses from your email, text messages, contacts, and calendars. And with a more detailed map, turn‑by‑turn spoken directions, and immersive 3D experiences, it’s easier than ever to get where you need to go. One‑tap access to your go‑to and must‑see destinations also helps you find more to see and do when you get there — whether you’re searching for points of interest, driving to a favorite restaurant, or looking for nearby gas stations.

Phone

The road is calling.

Make calls, return missed calls, and listen to voicemail. Siri can help you do all of these things. All you have to do is ask.

Messages

Reading and writing is now

listening and dictating.

You can now send audio messages with Siri on iOS and CarPlay, so you never have to look at your iPhone while driving. You can also ask Siri to share your ETA with someone from your contacts list while navigating with Apple Maps, to help keep everyone who needs to know in the know.

Music

All your music.
Beautifully arranged.

Access all your content from your Apple Music subscription and additional audio apps using your car’s built‑in controls. Search by artist, album, or song. See what’s playing and what’s up next. You can ask Siri to play your favorite song by Arcade Fire, act as your personal DJ, or stream one of more than 100,000 live radio stations.

Calendar

Stay on top of your day

when you’re on the road.

The Calendar app gives you a quick, simple view of the day ahead while you’re on the go. And if you have a meeting, you can just tap to get directions or dial in, using your car’s speakers and microphones to keep your hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.

Control with a word.

Or a touch. Or a twist.

CarPlay with Siri voice control is specially designed for driving scenarios. CarPlay also works with your car’s controls — knobs, buttons, touchpad, or touchscreen. And the apps themselves have been reimagined for the car, so you can use them while your eyes and hands stay where they belong.

To activate Siri voice control, just press and hold the voice control button on the steering wheel.

Touch

If your CarPlay-equipped vehicle has a touchscreen, you can use it to control CarPlay.

Knobs and Controls

CarPlay also works with the knobs, dials, or buttons in the car. If it controls your screen, it controls CarPlay.

Invite more apps

along for the ride.

CarPlay supports other apps on your iPhone — like your favorite audio, messaging, and voice apps, along with apps in new categories, like third-party parking, EV charging, and quick food-ordering apps. Apps developed by car manufacturers are also supported, so you can control more of your car’s features without ever leaving CarPlay. 2 You can personalize your experience by rearranging exactly how your apps appear in CarPlay through settings on your iPhone. And app developers now have access to a variety of tools and templates that enable them to provide smarter, safer ways to use iPhone in the car.

Hands On With Apple CarPlay

We took a quick test drive of Apple’s CarPlay at WWDC. Here’s what we saw.

SAN FRANCISCO—The developers and atendees at today’s Apple WWDC keynote were treated to a sneak peek of Apple’s CarPlay in automobiles parked on on the second floor landing of the Moscone West building. We saw a Chevrolet Spark EV, a Ferrari FF, and a mid-60s Ford Mustang (in Bullitt green, natch) all equipped with Apple CarPlay, and hopped in for a quick demo.

CarPlay displays a home screen similar to the one on your iPhone, along with a Siri button with a squircle in it. Any app that’s been updated for CarPlay will show up on the screen, including the main Apple Maps, Messages, Music, and Phone apps. We also saw a demo of the MLB At Bat app, as well as icons for the Beats Music and Podcasts apps.

Tapping the Siri or hands-free buttons on the steering wheel brings up Siri, and she can respond to standard commands like «Find me a candy store» or «I’m in the mood to listen to Mozart.» CarPlay will then bring you to the Maps or Music app, respectively. What’s neat is that Siri will read new messages to you, as well as start them after looking a person up in your contacts list. The text of your message doesn’t display on the screen (like on the iPhone), which reduces distractions.

In a similar stroke of logic, the MLB At Bat app doesn’t show you scoreboards, rather it allows you to select the respective radio stations in each team’s home market. That way you can follow along with the game via your phone’s data connection. Podcasts and Beats Music also use streaming for audio through your car’s loudpseakers.

The Ferarri (high-end luxury), Chevy Spark EV (economy), and Ford Mustang (aftermarket) were no doubt chosen to show the wide adoption of CarPlay, and we look forward to putting it through its paces in the near future.

Apple today also showed off iOS 8 and Mac OS X Yosemite, both of which will be released in the fall.

For PCMag’s first take on the Apple announcements, check out the video below.

Как подключить CarPlay и Android Auto на авто: беспроводной и проводной способы

Во время езды на автомобиле очень важно оставаться внимательным и сконцентрированным, так как от этого зависит не только ваше здоровье, но и здоровье окружающих. Именно ради повышения уровня безопасности с сохранением уровня комфорта были придуманы технологии Android Auto и Apple CarPlay — они позволяют пользоваться функциями вашего смартфона, будь то карты, звонки, приложения для прослушивания музыки или что-то ещё, без необходимости отвлекаться на небольшой дисплей смартфона. И хотя почти у всех более или менее современных автомобилей эти функции имеются, не все знают, как их запустить. Сегодня быстро и понятно в этом разберёмся.

Содержание

Подготовительный этап

Перед тем, как заниматься активацией какой-либо функции и тестом возможностей приложений, нужно пройти несколько подготовительных этапов.

1. убедитесь, что ваш автомобиль поддерживает Android Auto и/или Apple CarPlay, а смартфон отвечает минимальным системным требованиям:
   список автомобилей, поддерживающих Apple CarPlay
   список автомобилей, поддерживающих Android Auto
2. заранее найдите кабель для подключения смартфона к вашей модели автомобиля (у некоторых новинок 2020 года и новее используется выход USB Type-C, другие авто оборудованы стандартным USB Type-A);
3. включите мобильный интернет на смартфоне;
4. найдите безопасное место (не на проезжей части дорог общего пользования) — парковку возле торгового центра, двор жилого комплекса, личный гараж;
5. заведите автомобиль и убедитесь, что КПП установлена на режим паркинга («P»), либо переведите коробку на «нейтралку» и воспользуйтесь ручным тормозом.

⚠️ Важно: данные пункты необходимы для вашей же безопасности — проверять работу того или иного софта на дорогах или трассах категорически не рекомендуется.

Как подключить Apple CarPlay

Перед работой с Apple CarPlay стоит активировать голосовой помощник Siri — он выполняет множество функций за рулём, позволяя, например, сразу набрать нужный номер телефона, отправить SMS или построить маршрут в навигаторе при помощи голосовых команд.

CarPlay по проводу

1. подключите USB-кабель в нужный разъём автомобиля (обычно он расположен под дисплеем мультимедийной системы и обозначен соответствующей иконкой смартфона — точное расположение можно узнать из инструкции или документации на сайте производителя);
2. подключите кабель в смартфон;
3. дождитесь появления интерфейса Apple CarPlay на дисплее мультимедийной системы.

Некоторые современные автомобили поддерживают беспроводное подключение Apple CarPlay — узнать, есть ли данная функция на вашей модели транспортного средства, можно на официальном сайте или в инструкции.

Беспроводной CarPlay

1. зажмите клавишу активации голосовых команд на руле (иконка с говорящим человеком);
2. переведите стереосистему автомобиля в режим беспроводной связи и/или Bluetooth;
3. на смартфоне откройте «Настройки», перейдите в раздел «Общее»;
4. перейдите в пункт «CarPlay», откройте меню «Доступные автомобили»;
5. выберите своё транспортное средство;
6. дождитесь появления интерфейса Apple CarPlay на дисплее мультимедийной системы.

Как подключить Android Auto

Систему Android Auto тоже можно подключить как проводным, так и беспроводным способами (если это поддерживает автомобиль). Правда, стоит учесть, что на операционной системе Android 10 и выше приложение Android Auto вшито в систему и не представлено отдельным приложением, но перед началом работы стоит обновить софт через Google Play до последней версии.

Android Auto по проводу

1. подключите USB-кабель в нужный разъём автомобиля (обычно он расположен под дисплеем мультимедийной системы и обозначен соответствующей иконкой смартфона — точное расположение можно узнать из инструкции или документации на сайте производителя);
2. подключите кабель в смартфон;
3. выполните простые действия инструкции на экране (система спросит, запускать ли Android Auto на данном автомобиле);
4. дождитесь появления интерфейса Android Auto на дисплее мультимедийной системы.

Данная система поддерживает и беспроводное подключение, но нужно отметить, что Android Auto по беспроводу работает только на ОС Android 11 и выше. Кроме того, беспроводная работа Android Auto поддерживается бортовыми компьютерами далеко не всех автомобилей.

Беспроводное Android Auto

1. подключите USB-кабель в нужный разъём автомобиля (обычно он расположен под дисплеем мультимедийной системы и обозначен соответствующей иконкой смартфона — точное расположение можно узнать из инструкции или документации на сайте производителя);
2. подключите кабель в смартфон;
3. выполните простые действия инструкции на экране;
4. отключите кабель;
5. дождитесь появления интерфейса Android Auto на дисплее мультимедийной системы.

В случае, если вы захотите отключить режим беспроводного подключения к Android Auto, нужно открыть меню уведомлений на смартфоне и нажать на кнопку «Выйти из режима «На автомобиле».
