Compare that to using the native systems, where moving back and forth between a BMW and a Ford also means moving between iDrive and SYNC, each with its own set of apps. Not because it’s intrinsically better than the auto manufacturers’ own offerings – many in-house systems, including BMW’s iDrive, are well designed and easy to use – but because of the sheer range of apps available.īest of all, those apps are available whichever vehicle you drive (as long as it has CarPlay, of course) BMW CarPlay boasts the same content as other vehicles.

It’s fair to say Apple CarPlay has revolutionized in-car infotainment.
