NEW UPDATE FOR APPLE CARPLAY FIXES ONE OF ITS BIGGEST ISSUES
Auto Express
|June 18, 2025
Interface will benefit from major Apple iOS update
-
ELSEWHERE Apple has unveiled its latest iPhone software update, which brings with it a host of fresh features for CarPlay - one of which fixes one of our big issues with the set-up.
During its annual Worldwide Developers' Conference, the firm pulled the covers off iOS 26, which introduces a new look called 'Liquid Glass'. This involves the use of transparent elements on the screen, which replicate the look of glass and have rendered reflections to look more natural.
However, this new look won't be exclusive to the iPhone, because users will also see it mirrored on their car's touchscreen via the latest version of Apple CarPlay.
