Cars have long transcended the simple definition of "four wheels plus a steering wheel" and now hav e become mobile spaces integrating advanced technologies. In order to make the driving experience more technological and allow users to safely enjoy some core functions of their mobile phones in the car, apple took the lead in launching the car play in-vehicle system. It is worth mentioning that apple has gained a head start in this field - launching earlier than Google Android Auto, thus opening a new chapter in in-vehicle mobile phone integration technology.
Since the birth of car play, apple has always been committed to the iterative upgrading of this in-vehicle software, continuously optimizing the integration experience between iphone and cars. In recent years, there have been constant rumors about apple 's R&D of the next-generation in-vehicle system, car play ultra. After a long development cycle, apple finally officially launched this highly anticipated new product this month. However, it has immediately sparked discussions: What is the demand for car play ultra? How is it different from the ordinary apple car play?
1.What is apple car play ultra?
For iphone users who own private cars, apple car play is likely a familiar term—unless they rarely engage with modern technology. With car play, users can easily access various functions and apps on their phones, such as making/receiving calls, sending/receiving messages, activating navigation, playing music, and even enjoying some games. In the past, users could only use car play-compatible phone functions on the in-vehicle infotainment system's screen, but they couldn’t manage the vehicle’s own system through it.
Now, the launch of apple car play ultra has successfully broken this long-standing limitation. apple car play ultra is deeply expanded based on the classic car play, achieving a comprehensive leap in functional dimensions. It can not only control the infotainment host but also manage the original car play platform. This innovation gives it the ability to directly read key vehicle information. Whether it’s the remaining fuel, real-time speed, or air conditioning system adjustment commands, all can be accurately obtained and intuitively displayed through the familiar car play interface.
