Pretty cool, but way too much touch interactions, at least in this demo. Siri will need to play a huge role in this.
Are you Siri-ous?
I agree that interaction with Siri is still not perfect. Between the lag and the voice vs. touch responses, she feels awkward and clumsy to use. I expect that will improve.
Hey, MDN. Did you know that iPhones can play videos in landscape…if the app allows it?
Sweet!
I agree with trondude, a lot of touching the screen… distracted driving… If most of the operation could be achieved by Siri, then maybe OK. Could be great for older autos that didn’t originally have “screen” interface.
I said I wouldn’t buy a car without Apple Carplay. Then what do I go and do? Buy a Tesla! The electric was just too tempting. Now all I got to do is ignore the horrible Goole Maps in the car. Absolutely hate Google.
Ill probably end up glueing an iPad on top of half the Tesla screen.
I kept asking myself, “Why do I need this?” I can and do have my iPhone in a holder in the car and do this already. Paired with the car’s system via BT makes it more hands free. What am I missing?
What car syncs with iPhone 6? Mine and none of my coworkers cars do.
I know. I drop mine in a holder that connects it to the stereo and power.
