Why doesn't Changan support CarPlay?
1 Answers
Because CarPlay requires Apple certification, and the vehicle's infotainment system needs to embed Apple chips, which involves considerable difficulty and cost. Additionally, the likelihood of Changan's target users owning Apple phones is relatively lower. Carlife, which supports both Apple and Android devices, can also cover a segment of users. Here is some information about CarPlay: 1. Introduction: CarPlay is an in-car system developed by Apple Inc. in the United States. When used in vehicles, it seamlessly pairs and connects with iOS devices. These devices include smartphones and tablets, and once connected, the phone's interface and functions can be displayed on the central control screen, making it very convenient to use. 2. Implementation Timeline: Apple Inc. announced its entry into the automotive sector in 2013 and officially launched the smart car system in June 2016. This system is exclusively compatible with Apple phones, and other smartphones cannot use it, presenting certain limitations in usage. Several car brands have adopted this system.
