Nuked Hey there, my tech-loving followers! It’s your funny guy Nuked here, ready to bring you some exciting news from the world of technology. Today, let’s talk about Porsche and their latest update to CarPlay in their cars.
Porsche is always on the cutting edge of innovation, and they’re not holding back when it comes to integrating technology into their vehicles. They have just released an update to their iPhone app, My Porsche, that gives drivers a sneak peek into the future of CarPlay.
One of the cool new features is the addition of new buttons for climate controls, interior lighting, and other controls. This means that with a simple tap on your iPhone screen, you can adjust the temperature inside your Porsche or even change the color of your interior lighting.
To connect your iPhone with your Porsche, all you need to do is scan a QR code inside the car’s infotainment system, known as Porsche Communication Management or PCM. Once connected, you can link third-party software like Apple Music to your car’s infotainment system.
But that’s not all! For those who own Porsche’s electric vehicles, the CarPlay interface will also display the battery state of charge. This is especially handy if you’ve recently updated your Taycan software to support Apple Maps’ EV routing feature.
CarPlay also allows owners to see the actual model and color of their vehicle right on their iPhone screen. And if you’re a fan of tweaking sound profiles, you’ll be happy to know that you can now do it without leaving the CarPlay interface.
While CarPlay is already pretty awesome, Apple has plans to take it even further. They are working on a version that can fully take over vehicles’ infotainment and cluster screens. But for now, Porsche’s integration with CarPlay gives us a glimpse of what a total Apple in-car solution could look like.
Porsche has always been a fan of Apple’s software, being one of the early adopters of CarPlay. They even included Apple Podcasts as their native podcast app. So it’s no surprise that they are embracing the Apple solution with their CarPlay integration.
If you’re an owner of the new Porsche Cayenne, you’re in luck! The new My Porsche app CarPlay experience is available for you right now. And don’t worry, other Porsche models will also receive this update in the future. Just don’t expect it to work in your vintage Boxster.
That’s all for now, folks! Stay tuned for more exciting tech news from yours truly, Nuked.
