Perhaps due to driving safety considerations, CarPlay has always been strictly guarded against WeChat and various video applications. From the perspective of driving scenarios, there is indeed no need to use such applications while driving.

CarPlay can build a bridge between your iPhone apps and your car's digital systems, making it easier for you to control them and your devices. CarPlay allows drivers to use their iPhone in the car with minimal interference.

The first models to support CarPlay are models from Mercedes-Benz, Ferrari and Volvo. Car brands that will support CarPlay include BMW, Toyota, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Peugeot, Subaru, Suzuki and Ford.

In addition to supporting Apple's built-in applications, Carplay has also opened up Carplay support for third-party applications. However, due to security factors, these apps are mainly music or podcast software.

New models successively launched in mainland China have begun to support Apple Carplay, and various apps that have followed have gradually been improved. Their appearance has greatly enriched Carplay's Chinese content, allowing Carplay to truly serve as an auxiliary driving entertainment tool.
