For many people shopping for a new car, the quality of the infotainment system is an important consideration. It's something the automakers have taken on board, each scrambling to design an in-car system that will be enough to woo prospective buyers. Many, though, still struggle to produce anything that's more than merely functional. And with fragmentation between brands, these systems generally only offer a small handful of third-party integrations, falling back on native solutions for most core features, like navigation, music and messaging.
Fortunately, Apple is able to offer iPhone users a compelling alternative in the form of iPhone CarPlay, an in-car multimedia hub that lets you use many of your favorite iOS apps safely behind the wheel.
After adding Apple CarPlay, you will be able to:

CarPlay was launched in 2014, but was based on the pre-existing "iPod Out" functionality, co-developed by Apple and automakers several years earlier. In a most of the car, iPod Out made it possible to plug an iPod into your car system and listen to your music collection through your vehicle's stereo system. At the same time, the current track or playlist could be shown on your screen, and controlling your iPod — skipping tracks, for example — could be done with your vehicle's native multimedia controls.
As iPods gave way to far more capable iPhones, Apple was able to revisit its iPod Out technology, and rebuild it with considerably more features. Rather than simply controlling music playback, the new system, dubbed CarPlay, would be able to leverage the full power of an iPhone to run a wide range of apps, including music, messaging and navigation. By creating an interface between your smartphone and your car's system, CarPlay lets you enjoy the best of both worlds: the versatility of an iPhone and its broad app ecosystem, combined with the convenience of the dashboard display and in-vehicle controls.
Though CarPlay lets you run many of the same familiar apps you might already be using on your iPhone, the system is optimized for in-car use. That means a new menu design that's better suited to use behind the wheel. CarPlay does support touchscreens in compatible vehicles, but the system works equally well with the buttons and knobs found on most cars' dashboards.
Unlike many other manufacturers, LEADSIGNAUTO also chose to implement wireless CarPlay, letting you connect your iPhone to your car without any cables. The result is a neater, clutter-free look that many car owners are sure to appreciate.
As most of the automakers played a key role in developing CarPlay's predecessor, iPod Out, it shouldn't come as much surprise that most of the automakers have also added Apple's latest offering to many of its cars. Since 2017, Apple CarPlay has been available in most of the car with the latest navigation systems, adding an extra layer of utility on top of its existing infotainment platform.
CarPlay is available as a factory option in most new cars. If your vehicle doesn't have CarPlay but you'd like to add it, you have the following retrofit option.
For older vehicles that aren't officially supported, it's also possible to add LEADSIGN CarPlay (aftermarket unit required). Unlike BMW's own implementation, many third-party Apple CarPlay retrofits rely on a wired connection, meaning not having a WiFi antenna won't be a problem. Although wireless aftermarket CarPlay is also available on the market, the presence of a factory BMW WiFi antenna is also not an issue.
Whether a third-party CarPlay module will work in your car, and what features will be available to you, depends on the exact product. LEADSIGN CARPLAY INTERFACE retrofit does not require any specific package, making it a great choice for a wide variety of vehicles. Unlike many other units available, LEADSIGNAUTO's is designed to integrate perfectly with your car, letting you use the factory screen, buttons and controllers when using CarPlay. Just like the OEM solution, it also supports a wireless connection.
