CarPlay Dashboard
Apple’s CarPlay feature has gotten a significant user interface boost, expanding its somewhat boring single-pane display into a multi-paneled interface that will let you combine data from multiple apps, so for example you can see your Maps, upcoming appointments, music that’s currently playing, and even HomeKit status all at a glance.
Some of the core apps have also gained better CarPlay user interfaces. Music is much more graphical now, showcasing album art to help you easily find your favourite albums, and Calendar now offers a view of your whole daily schedule.
Fans of third-party apps will also enjoy the fact that they’ll now be able to use Siri to do things like ask Google Maps for directions or play music from Spotify, rather than being limited only to Apple’s own first-party apps.
