Android Auto and CarPlay in our digital-driven world.



Connectikpeople.co, soon #Retinknow, just recalls that Apple and Android are also deeply involved in automotive industry. 

It is exciting to observe that, while CarPlay from Apple (the software platform that synchronizes iPhones to vehicle infotainment systems) was first-to-market and had the backing of OEMs such as BMW, Citroën, Ferrari, Jaguar/Land Rover, Mercedes, Peugeot, and Toyota , some car manufacturers are ‘delaying’ their rollouts of CarPlay.

Android Auto seems ramp-up quicker than previously expected. In fact, Audi, GM, Honda, Hyundai, and Volvo have announced that they will include Android Auto in 2015 models. In addition, some OEMs have so far only announced they will be supporting Android Auto: Acura, Bentley, Infiniti, Maserati, Renault, SEAT, Škoda, and Volkswagen. 

The reality is that: This is a matter of preference related to car’s maker customers and the nature of Android, as a more open platform. It is also exciting to encourage car makers to support both systems.

With Smartcomments, we transform, how people understand, appropriate, appreciate, and adopt technologies in our digital-driven world. Just what matters in real-time with the simplest words.
