Does the Boyue support CarPlay?
2 Answers
Boyue supports CarPlay, and you need to prepare an original USB cable for use. Introduction to CarPlay: CarPlay is a car infotainment system developed by Apple that connects to an iPhone via USB. Currently, it supports functions such as navigation, music, phone calls, text messages, podcasts, and audiobooks. All functions in CarPlay are linked to the phone, and all operations can be controlled via Siri. CarPlay Features: Navigation: Currently, CarPlay navigation does not support third-party apps and only supports Apple's built-in navigation (default is Amap). Both the phone and CarPlay can search for destinations and enter the navigation interface. Music Playback: If the owner's phone is an iPhone, the songs can be played directly.
Last year, I test drove the Boyue, and it indeed supports CarPlay, which is quite common in newer models nowadays. The connection process is straightforward—just plug your phone in with a USB cable, and it works instantly. The interface responds quickly, making music playback and navigation smooth. The Boyue's infotainment system runs on Geely's own GKUI, and CarPlay support is a definite plus, eliminating the need to constantly glance at your phone while driving. It's also compatible with other apps like Apple Music. However, it's worth noting that some older Boyue models may only support wired connections, while versions from 2021 onward have upgraded to wireless CarPlay, making it even more convenient. When choosing a car, it's best to confirm the model year and specifications with the salesperson, as multimedia systems evolve rapidly and may occasionally require a restart due to software bugs. I found it incredibly handy for highway navigation and switching tracks, reducing distractions and enhancing safety.
