Apple CarPlay provides a way to integrate an iPhone into a vehicle's infotainment system. Once the iPhone connects to the infotainment system, a driver can access the smartphone's various features. Hands-free capabilities may contribute to increased safety, although drivers must still use care when engaging the system.
Essentially, Apple CarPlay allows someone inside the vehicle to place calls, dictate text messages, and send voicemails. Listening to the audio playback of text messages and voicemails is also possible. Passengers and drivers don't have to be out of the communications loop, and Apple CarPlay may help remove impediments to using their phones while traveling.

Weather apps might also be helpful to commuters, as might various other informational apps.
